Dawnblade and Icarus Dash in PvP

I've decided to put Nova Warp away tonight and discovered something interesting... Icarus dash is a powerful dodging maneuver. I must have dodged four or five Blade Barrages within three matches during my Dawnblade, and even without Dawnblade active, midair dodges were successfully throwing off shotgun rushers. Something I'm certain quite a few people aren't aware of about Icarus Dash is that you can influence the direction of your dodge more than simply picking a direction upon activation. Changing your camera, much like during a hunters dodge and good ol' Twilight Garrison, will curve your momentum. Twisting around cover instead of flying into it. I've found that it's a very useful tool in Crucible, and this skill tree has another hidden gem: The ability to fire and scope while gliding. Equip a Hand Cannon or SMG with icarus grip and you're a hard to hit flying death machine. Just wanted to put this out there, if you're feeling blue about your ability to compete, this is definitely a strong setup in the current meta. Just don't ever use Wings of Sacred Dawn with it unless you have some serious reflexes, and don't jump around like a crazy person. Bungie pls nerf
