Isn't Worlds still happening in a coupla weeks?

Now with the nerf (although Toronto had already kinda gotten bored of them judging by the Regionals in January), few are playing triple Defenders or Commonwealth Defenders, and more just playing a single Defender in a mixed squad. I did see two Deltas helping out a Phantom a couple weeks ago though.

I saw the occasional one out and about yesterday though, but I never saw the squad.

I've just been sticking to good old TIE/D Vessery, but not he's getting non-x7 wingmates whereas before the nerf he was getting x7 Maarek or x7 Countess as a wingmate.

I think the Defenders are probably on the good and competitive edge of balanced now.

Come to think of it though, now that the nerf has happened, people haven't really bothered trying to get rid of Vessery, people kinda consider him rather innocuous even though he wasn't hurt and is still delivering dumptrucks of damage.
