Is this "toxic"?

Everytime i see a legion in frenzy i run towards them and 360 causing them to lose there powers before they can hit anyone and then sometimes they proced to facecamp me, Some times they just ignore it and dont face camp, but im just curious if legions consider doing that toxiv

    It's not toxic in the sense that you're doing something wrong but I can see a killer getting frustrated if you kept doing it and deciding to take the hit to their game to take you out. Especially if by the time they do manage to catch you, the game is getting to the end.

    The word toxic gets overused. I play legion a lot, what youre doing is out playing them. Its just a trick they have to learn to counter. Kind of like when people run straight at a blinking nurse, eventually that nurse learns to recognize that and shorten the blink

    Well that simply sounds like counter play. It one of the ways to deny legion use of their power. By making them miss. It like spreading out and not sticking together aka scooby doo it, both will greatly limit the effect Legion's power has.

    Not at all. If anything, you are teaching the legion they need to expect the 360. Way to go professor!

    No, it is not toxic but as a Legion main I require you to not do that. Why? Well, because I asked. (jk)

    Ah... no...?

    Am I missing something here? You charge the killer, somehow 360 them... And get called toxic?

    Please try that against me. I swear it'll work. Pinky promise. Totally gonna rob me of my power, 100%.



    Though I would like to clarify that legion is oddly difficult to hit 360's with on dedicated servers (I've been told it's easier with 120 FPS) because of their FF lensing effect and general survivor jankyness post-servers, so maybe it's just people getting angry that their already weak killer is also ridiculously hard to get their weak power to work in very specific situations.

    Can You really call it outplaying them tho? The damn auto target on console takes over when a player 360s so its almost as if it feels abusive.

    On the other hand I respect 360s and hit after. Same with DH its just annoying. Wouldnt call it toxic.

    I agree the auto aim sucks at times, but as you mentioned, you know its a thing and can be played around. So yeah, if they use the mechanics to screw you and you let them thats what being outplayed is. But I feel your pain and hear you, believe me

    It’s not toxic you’re fine 👍. If anyone says that it’s toxic there is something not right with them.

    If 360s are an issue, try to use the standard swipe instead of a lunge. Most people tend to 360 around the front of the killer. This is how lunges fail with an impression that "autoaim takes over". The standard swipe is much shorter than the lunge but it is significantly wider, which is very effective against most 360s, due to most survivors trying to get into your lunge's blindside.


    The smarter survivors won't get near your blind side, and will 360 further away from you, which may bait you back to lunging.

    I don't see it as toxic. Unless you go flashlight clicky clicky or t bag on next pallet

    Not toxic at all. Although it could make someone mad enough to throw their game. You simply just outplayed them and a lot of people hate when you do that

    I play Legion sometimes but no of course not. When we have a fair and fun game and you still t-bag Legion at exit gate that is toxic, or if you write a "easy" message after the game. This 360 thing is just playing the game.

    Thats just what legions do when they miss their power, when they miss me I'm like #########, now I get to be the one chased around for the next 60 seconds instead of the next guy. Their power has such a long cool down its like if you made leatherface miss and he couldn't use his saw for another 30 plus seconds.

    That's a true "fool me once shame on you, fool me twice shame on me" situation for the Legion in question, like with a lot of the tricks people try in DBD.

    If they repeatedly fall for it they only have themselves to blame. Even if they have bad performance for whatever reason they can at least take steps to make it less likely they miss, like wait to see if you react similarly the next time and then hit you. So no, not "toxic".

    Wouldn't call it toxic, but absolutely incredibly frustrating for Legion players. Legion's depends on his power for chases, without it he's an m1 killer. And the penalty for missing a stab is absolutely huge. One missed stab means they're going to have a very hard time with chases for a while. Basically, having your power completely nullified because you missed a single stab is not fun.
