Blade's unironically busted as fuck but it's very weird.
You can't just go in guns blazing with the sword and you can't just stand back shooting, flanking is griefing too, you need to make use of the shotgun range and anti heal and then make use of opportunities to go in melee while using the toggle to get in, get out, do damage and combine it with the parry which can dodge even shit like Dr. Strange ult.
To boot he also has a fair bit of combos/animation cancels that make him suddenly do a nice bit of damage.

The problem is that if you don't have a good healer/at least one good tank then he still feels fucking useless because even with good opportunities you're not gonna get the required healing.
