Of course not, that would mean your team is lacking tools that are valuable in huttball. I don't claim that the abilities aren't effective. They are and should be used. They aren't IWIN buttons though, they are tools that people should be aware of and attempt to counter. Unless you're fielding a team loaded with operatives or something, you have things available to disrupt the flow of passes, leaps, and pulls on the catwalk.

I find that very hard to believe. i'm a sniper, leaps and pulls do not work on me in cover... i can even prevent myself from being pushed off... if you control the middle, and have the ball, and prevent the enemy from camping in your endzone ramps, then yes your team can win... that's teamwork... if you have the ball, and half their team is camping on your ramps, they are useless back there while you score and score.... if you don't have the ball, and never clear them from your ramps, they're going to score repeatedly... i don't play the pull/leap classes, but someone who does will know what the cooldown is... i'm under the impression that they have a "longish" cooldown anyways right?

You're sure this topic has been beaten like a dead horse so you post it anyways? And it's not going anywhere.
It's just an object, doesn't mean what you think.

It's on a 1 minute CD, also confrontations on the defenders ramps/pathways can also be avoided by the sorc/sage just by using their knockback. Also, for some reason everyone seems to think that I'm saying as soon as one sorc/sage is on the opposing team, I'm instantly classifying the game as a loss. I'd love to know where they're getting this from what I've posted. I'm saying that multiple chains of the rescue ability simultaneously is what is imbalanced.

Partially because I had just finished a game with a group of 4 sages that just chained it all the way along to the goal 2 times and turtled the rest of the match, and partially because I'm bored. But thanks for reading babe.

I also agree with you and the poster you quoted on about being part of passing chains, as I think that's the essence of skilled huttball play. There's a chance for failure in passes though as they can be intercepted, and have travel time for people to adjust. This chance for failure isn't present in rescue however, which is my problem. I can respect that. Ideally you want to have both variety and balance. If there is an imbalance (and I'm not convinced there is a meaningful imbalance in Huttball), then the two may come into conflict. A lot of these discussions call for balance at the expense of variety. I want to make sure that there's at least one voice advocating for variety.
This is my first visit to the Galaxy of Terror, and I'd like it to be a pleasant one.

I would have no problem with a team full of sorcs if this wasn't a problem. If they added a debuff preventing the use of rescue on the player just rescued (for ~15s lets say) then this wouldn't be an issue, but at this point in time, there is no such debuff, so it remains an issue.
