Its about ratcheting nerfs- basically affirmative action.

Certain content became exclusive to niche frames because they  ̶a̶r̶e̶  were best at it (like Mag against shields.)

Instead of being happy for their success, people view this as a problem that needs to be solved.

Ash was effective so he was hated. Also, when Blade Storm was used it gave enemies a moment of invulnerability that protected them while they shot your team. Since less people play Ash now, that invulnerability is hard to notice and if it is noticed it's seasoned with a dose of salt that tastes better than the actual gameplay.
