It's not "cheap" at all, because guns are infintely superior to swords. That's why we don't use them anymore(the infinite charge for the sword was perhaps the only advantage sword users get) That's like a person with a samurai sword, in a head-on duel against someone with a gun. And sword users have a right to get some kills. Don't give me that BS about "skill". Games are supposed to be fun, not "skill". There will always be someone better than you. Just because it's a sword, doesn't mean you think you're supposed to be godly invincible to it. Not to mention there are plenty of ways to counter a sword.
And in Spartan/Elite perspective, they can do lunges pretty quick. The lunge is necessary. Otherwise, the sword would be as useless as a plasma pistol without its overcharge. The only thing that needs to be fixed is its physics-like how you can fly up to cut someone down from upper ground. At the most, a finite charge counter in multiplayer. If anything, the sword's power should be even more powerful i.e. the ones Elites use in Halo.
