RIP speed tanks 
But seriously, entire tank line destroyed by ccp unless you're an interceptor 
Oh well; I'm Caldari

I question the pvp combat experience of nano-whiners who can't win unless they go 10km/s.
This sums up the rampant ignorance on this forum

Can you imagine that there are people with billions on their wallet to afford any stuff they like and with all speed-related skills maxed out but who still do not enjoy current nano age?
I can imagine pilots like myself that have never flown a nano and who doesn't mind the nano age at all.
I don't really mind the nano change, it just sucks that they are willing to completely remove an entire portion of the game just so a vaga can't break 6km/s.
There are a lot of people saying that a 3km/s vaga is "fair". Well sure, but how about the nano ships that go 3km/s now. Why are these broken, and why are they being removed from the game?

Speed tanking will not die unless you're assuming that speed tanking = ability to disengage. 3km/s is still enough to outrun heavy missile explosion speeds and afterburner fits designed to evade turret fire will have even more use now. The only thing being nerfed is a disengage ability which was quite unfairly privatized solely by nano fits and made all other fitting options obsolete.
On the other hand I agree with what the difference between full speed fit and MWD-only fit will be small after patch and probably will not justify using completely speed fitted ships at all. I would like CCP to notice this but even if they don't it still will be better than the situation we have now.
You seem to misunderstand. The ships that go 3km/sec now (as in, there isn't a patch right now, etc?), will be completely removed from the game and will have to gank+tank like everyone else. The only ship that can speed tank now will be the vaga, and even then, 80% of turrets still track them 
The only ship that will be able to nano with remote success will be the stabber family, if you don't include frigates, and even then it will be so subpar you might as well fly a hurricane.
While this is fine and dandy, it still bugs me that they are willing to completely remake the foundation of pvp just because someone whined that a vaga is going 10km/s.
Afterburner setups will be extremely niche. They will be fairly useless in 0.0 (lawls bubble camp), and will suck against multiple targets. Sure, your transversal on that Megathron is awesome! To bad the other turret ship 20km away is hitting every shot.

Fair enough. But SiSi lacks the moment of surprise. SiSi lacks any tactical or strategical thinking. And last but not least SiSi lacks the part were people are acting stupid because they're afraid of losing their internet spaceships.
So yes, some pilots are doing useful tests. But please don't try to convince anyone, that FD-MLJ on SiSi is how TQ will look like post patch.
You're right, we'll just remove SiSi because it has nothing to do with tq
