i still have lots of fun on my fire/ice tank. it was a lot more fun during I4 but i can still have lots of fun now (and imo its loads better then anyother tanks set 
)
You'd think itll be impossible to tank with the way some people describe things. i have to ask "did they learn how to tank outside of a dreck map?" but in most cases these people will say "its not fun anymore". Fire/ice tanks dont rely on teams half as much as the others do but in certain ways you can be caught short. But thats life, dont expect to tank without proper support of the team just as anyone of the team shouldnt expect to be at the very least, overwhelmingly shot at, with proper support from you.

He does not boast about his ability, or shamelessly extol his own virtues. - Sima Qian.
thx for replies
I iknow wot u mean shannon - think people just keep referring to "good old days".
Also - as i almost exclusively play in teams; is prob why I dont see fire tanks as being particularly nerfed. Works with defender or troller best, but as long as theres a good team behind me - its ok

Never played pre-I5 so cant say wot it was like before, but very fun, even now. Mobile, good damage, good AoE.
A little squishy, but nothing a good team wouldnt sort out
