The outparty always blame the administration for being a King especially if 1 party has all three branches, but Rs has been known to obstruct more than Dems and if Dems done away with filibuster in 2009 then Rs wouldn't been able to seize control of House in 2010, only to block immigration reform to get Senate back in 2014.

But if Biden gets power back for Dems, imperative to be done with the legislative filibuster if Dems win over 51 seats

Getting rid of the filibuster is an internal Senate decision. Elizabeth Warren during the Democratic debates said she supported getting rid of the Senate filibuster as part of her campaign for running for president. This is straight up stupidity masquerading as a way to get votes. She has been in the Senate for how many years and never put forward anything to actually do this. She instead says she wants to get rid of the filibuster of the body while she's trying to leave the body. I don't give a sh**t on what people to say, I care about actions. What actions were done?
