What did they DO to Soundwave?

Something major is off with him. I know the heavy was bugged, but was his overall attack buffed??

This happened since the large scale graphical alterations last patch. If there was no work done on soundwave himself, then I would suspect it's a result of literally the graphical work (and also another implication that it is more accurately working correctly now rather than incorrectly... just saying, and just cause it isn't popular doesn't mean it isn't true).
Soundwave lovers won't like that (because it results in a worse soundwave), but tell me I'm wrong about the animation always clearly did visually show that you SHOULD have been able to sidestep the heavy if you were a handful of steps back.
If this is going to continue then change laserbeak’s laser to one straight beam that shoots across the screen, then sidestepping will make sense to avoid.
I can understand since there are so many unintentional bugs and accidental fix and fix-caused-bugs etc. Like one programmer checked in a graphic fix which is in no way intended to nerf anybody....
But Soundwave reeeeally falls from god-tier to mediocre. Now he's on base defense. I'd rather use Ratchet.
I'm honestly sad I've put so much work into him for him to become average at best now.
Time for me to rethink my A team. I'm happy I just ranked Shockwave.
You can't sidestep very close, but neither can the AI. You have to be far enough back to where, if you were a new person playing the game, it LOOKS like you should be able to sidestep it. Then you can sidestep it just fine.
Just like against Shockwave, I always successful dodge his SP2 by swipe down. Swipe up will get hit.
