Hes implying that its already competitive. Most likely because your premise that FW isn't competitive is not true.
If you played just fw, you'd struggle to make it past 1300 rating. Even Devilsrath and tinydragon are currently sucking with fw. Markoth is farming devilsrath's fw bg and tiny quit it after 4 games against me. There is a reason I play everything but fw and ud atm. Even UD is better, I got 1400+ with that and ud sucks.
I was under the impression that Domi, Mobi and UT were still meta units. If that is still the case, then FW is still competitive.
Of wich 50% of that list would like FW deleted outright and that it is a cancer along with the people who play it.
fw is currently the worst faction, i never say that its no more competetive but it definetly isnt as competetive as it used to be
