The story of windforce:

In the early days of Pick a Side, windforce wasn’t a main weapon people used. Its damage was bad compared to other weapons, and people mostly used Chief Justice or Bat scythe. Occasionally people would bring windforce on “Super Health,” but that was uncommon to see.

Around a year ago, I’m pretty sure Pick a Side got hacked, and there was a gaping hole in the middle of the map. This made windforce absolutely dominate the meta, as you could fling a person off the map and instant KO them.

After this issue got resolved, Pick a Side was back at it’s normal self. But, players who used windforce still used it. People had seen windforce as a main weapon, and therefore countered it better.

Today, as far as I can tell, windforce hasn’t gotten buffed or nerfed. It’s just that the environment has changed, and people adapted, making windforce less viable.
