Mag isn't really "hated" right now, just sort of controversial. She got some great buffs in 8.3 but they were pretty moot by Update 9. Shield Polarize remains something of an underpowered ability outside of Defenses, and the increase in enemy armor accentuated some people's issues with Crush- its unmodded range is questionable (12 yards as opposed to many frames' 20), it has zero mobility, leaves Mag completely vulnerable, only CCs targets that were in range when she started casting (and even then it's often buggy), and now even its damage isn't enough to kill Grineer grunts at higher levels.
