If you find jan boring then you must suck at it. When I play jan I am constantly doing multiple things to help out the team, not to mention getting plenty of demp/pistol kills on my own. I'm doing too many things at once to get bored.
It might seem boring to low cals because it doesn't get a lot of kills on its own. But that's not the point, though. The point of jan is to make the rest of the team better. It's like having a good offensive line. When you have a good OL, it makes your QB, RBs, and WRs all look better. Take 2009 for instance, Toby Gerhart might have been better than Mark Ingram in terms of sheer skill, but Ingram had a much better OL and had huge running lanes open all the time, so he looked better. A noob might spec a pug and look at the losing team and think "these guys suck at demo/reborn boss, so that's why they're losing" when more likely they have a bad jan and the enemies are never frozen, they are constantly having to maneuver through mines, they are getting shocked by the other team's jan, and they are virtually playing down a man due to their crappy jan. Give Aaron Rodgers a terrible offensive line and see if he still looks like Aaron Rodgers out there.
