A controversial update was released during this season which reduced damage of the demoman's stickies until reaching 2 seconds of firing. This was believed to be an attempt by valve to "combat sticky-spamming". This update also led to competitive 6's players questioning the viability of demoman on maps and even led to Epsilon eSports' WARHURYEAH running heavy for a lengthy amount of time throughout matches as opposed to his main, demoman, due to the belief that it would be more effective. This update was reversed 5 days later.
