That in itself makes a huge difference, that's why so many people run assassin pro it counters so many things and theres no trade off for it really.
Removing Stopping Power was necessary; you can't remove Juggernaut and expect Stopping Power not to be imbalanced. Whoever thought that it was necessary for Assassin to counter counter UAVs and Advanced UAVs however, is an imbecile. But then it all goes back to the cancer known as Support streaks. As dumb as they are, someone at IW realized that everyone that every scrub was going to run support and they needed a viable counter to all the spammed counters and advanced UAVs. Essentially, this is game is broken to its core and to fix it would require a complete restructuring of the killstreak system.
This is why Black Ops had everything right. Sure you can use ghost to hide from UAVs but try hiding from a Blackbird. Then of course counter UAVs could block a blackbird for a majority of its duration. However all of these required for the player base to be at least capable of killing a few people without dying which this community clearly has a phobia of accomplishing lest they be labeled a camper.
