I don't see how a grenade with 0.6 fuse time and a super wide area of effect is considered easy to dodge. Especialy with a game that requires that amount of micro, i might be babysitting another squad while it's being pulled off or multi-tasking.

The numerous explosions also throw your guys in all directions, removing control of your squad for a while which means no dodging and NO DPS at all. Noticed how the PPSH totally stopped firing after the first grenade exploded?

Plus, while the damage seems low, you are usually over lapping grenades, which means you will probably take 40 damage multiple times per units over a wide area in contrary to Overkilling certain models with a normal grenade.

Personally I'm playing almost exclusively comp stomps, you might be right about the re-targeting of the troops you are attacking in online games. But wouldn't the same hold true for sturm pioneers? There's no difference in armor for these two units as far as I know.

Or maybe try to utilize cover to the best of your abilities when closing the gap as Relic intended cqc units to be required to do as of a couple of patches ago when they tinkered with the cover system and dps.
