Title says it all: Upgrade what doesn't work instead of nerfing its opponent. In the Example in the Title, the opponent would be Warlock melees and what doesn't work would've been the Titan Punch.
I wouldn't mind any of the buffs if there weren't nerfs to the other side, but that's just my opinion.
Tell me: What would happen if a player with a Y1 post-buff Red Death and a player with an Early-Year-1 SUROS Regime crossed paths in the crucible?
Think about that.
"But wouldn't this idea make it so that every gun just keeps getting buffed and everything becomes OP?"
That's possible, but then again we're vocal enough to make Bungie nerf just about anything, so why can't we just call for every last gun to be dumbed down equally for a better ttk?

I've never understood this. If you buff everything you will eventually get TTKs similar to that of Call of Duty. A who-shot-first dominated Crucible
