I find the ubersaw to be just slightly overwhelming. (note, I did not say overPOWERED) I'm a decent soldier on my off days and I (like to imagine) a clem-esque soldier on my good days. I can juggle most pyros and medics but it seems that once-in-a-while medic that has no buddy and is desperate, pulls out his ubersaw and without fail instacrits and sends my corpse flying across the map.
I played medic like everyone else when the patch came out, but I continued to play medic after the hype and I'm fairly well acquainted with the nuances of each saw. I dont think a 20% speed reduction is really a big enough drawback. \0= Then again, the normal saw crits like a maniac also and seemingly swings as fast as a scout bat (especially in the heat of battle)
