Removal of Broken Set Ability in SkyPvP​

Detailed description:
As the New Season of SkyPvP Has been released. The new season is pretty good but there are some issues with some certain sets. The ability of the set is too broken. It freezes the opponent in that place on every 2 hits which is almost not playable.​

Reason(s):
The only counter to this ability is either the 5500 killstreak “Oblivion Set” or The “Love Cookies” which are obv a p2w gkit and thus its tough for f2p players to cope with it.​

Example(s):
Here is a clip of the ability of the set:
As you can see the player cant even move properly and has to pearl everytime he wants to move. You guys should either remove this ability or at the very least nerf it i.e make it like the abilityof “Mirage Set” from last season. “Every 20 hits freeze the player for 2 seconds”
The every 2hits and freezing player for 2 seconds the opponent already gets 2 more hits in the moment you are frozen already and it just becomes permanent almost at one point​
 
Removing this armor set would be a mistake because, despite being very powerful, it already has counterplay and does not make the game unfair.
The effect itself applying Slowness IV every two hits is undeniably strong, but that is exactly what makes the set valuable and attractive. Powerful items and unique effects are part of what makes progression and investment rewarding. Nerfing it heavily, such as changing the effect to every 20 hits, or removing sets entirely, would take away an important part of the game experience.
More importantly, this set is not unbeatable. There are already ways to counter it. Players who achieve 5,500 consecutive kills can unlock a counter set specifically designed to fight against this armor. This means dedicated players still have a real in-game method to compete with it without necessarily spending money.
Another important counter is Love Cookies, which allow players to avoid negative effects. Some people argue that this is still pay-to-win because obtaining them requires gold, but the situation is more balanced than that. Players who spend money can sell Love Cookies in the player shop, meaning free-to-play players are still able to obtain them through trading and the in-game economy.
Making the season more enjoyable for free-to-play players is understandable, but removing or deleting strong paid content is not the only solution when effective counters and alternative methods already exist. The recipes and the sets should remain because players always have options to adapt and counter them.
At the end of the day, if players decide not to use the available counters, that is a personal choice rather than proof that the set itself is unfair.
