Razorback shouldn't exist in it's current form.

No overheal was a good change but this weapon is still overpowered.

Definitely, but Sniper shouldn't have a way to deny backstabs in the first place.

I don't see why not. It's easy to trickstab a sniper right after taking off his razor back, or simply shoot him 3 times with your primary weapon.

It's really not "overpowered" in the slightest, coming from a spy main.

Actually if you take off their razorback you can't do anything for a few seconds, even cloak, and you risk getting quickscoped, so it's generally not worth it to remove their razorback.

If they can quickscope, they deserved the kill. Therefore, the razorback is not OP, as it has decent counters.

He'll get instaded'd by one tap to the head and Spies now have Enforcer to really nullify the RB; and hell everyone uses the Jarate now

The Razorback is designed to stop backstab,so I assume you are having a difficult time backstabbing a sniper using the Razorback,but did you know it doesnt stop bullets?You have a revolver,use it.There Razorback isnt op

Point is it's a lot riskier and more likely to fail to kill a sniper by revolver instead of backstab and good snipers still equip it for this reason. I see it happen all the time in pubs, if I'm killing a skilled Sniper, next time I see him he's wearing it. Yeah you can still gun them down but it still lessens your impact on their point and click adventure to quite a degree especially if they are around teammates.
