OP here.

Did I ever say that he sucks?

I didn't. All I said that the words that describe him are misleading.

Also, why do you compare Vauban to modern combat engineers? It makes no sense. The technological advancement is not vast enough to allow us to create deployable Vortexes or Stasis fields, so why even bring that up?

Considering that all of his abilities revolve around grenades, it would mean that the grenades can be modified to have different properties. So why would the guy doing all the engineering stop after creating just four grenades?

The way I see it, you need to have appropriate tools to do any sort of a job. Even the modern military has countless gadgets available just to troopers. On the contrary, right now, Vauban only has Hard CC and electrical-trap-fodder-slayer-nade available to him. In Vauban's shoes, any decent warfighter would create thousands of grenade effects and combinations, instead of limiting his options that much.

Intentionally limiting one's versatility in combat at one's own whim sounds like something a mentally-challenged person would do. Or DE.
