The rework didn't fix Legion

Legion has always had two main problems since their original rework back in 2020:

  1. Chaining hits is map specific and on top of that Survivors have to play into you. A good team can easily split up or body block once they're injured to ruin your chances at chaining Frenzy.
  2. Feral Frenzy is a mostly non-lethal power that leaves Legion with traditional 115 looping for most of their downs.

Legion feels better to play after their changes. But Legion still easy to bully and strong Survivors can take control of the game away from the Legion players. It's legitimately depressing when you're chasing your fourth frenzy chain for the instadown and a deep-wounded Survivor body blocks a door forcing you to cancel.

    I have seen 1 survivor do that all week. For the rest, I saw were 50 D/C's and maybe won a couple.

    It's almost always guaranteed injure states on anyone you come across, even if they hit you with pallets there's addons that punish survivors for doing it by giving you frenzy back instantly

    The main counterplay to frenzy is staying injured and splitting up - something that good survivors do most of the time anyway.

    Legions fun and thats what matters to me. im trying to win a game solely off of frenzy downs, no m1 legion lol. its hard, and fun. Legion isnt some op unstoppable god killer, playing him ONCE reveals that lmao

    At this point I feel like unless a killer doesn't have a counter, he isn't "fixed".

    Ok. Could have quoted anyone else to reply that, since that wasn’t my point.


    I was being sarcastic. People, figuratively speaking, don’t want killers to actually be balanced.

    Defeaned on Deep Wounds would've gone a long way for giving him more mind game potential. Also, the 10 extra seconds on Never-Sleep Pills feels near mandatory to even have a chance of chaining hits against remotely decent survivors.

    The complains were mostly that people were playing against legion a lot. And I had that complaint too. I had one night where I played against 3 straight legions

    Hey at least he doesnt have reload his power like 30 times in a trial and at least you get constant interaction. As well as being "buffed" and becoming obsolete months after (they hate clown). Legion seems to be in a good place, gets boon nerfs in their favor along with regression to healing. Just wow.

    No, Legion is limited by the nature of their power. They need the survs to be grouped for it to really work, and good survs don't group.

    Legion is improved, but will always be some flavor of bad, so long as their power is what it is.

    huh, why people never talking about counter hit when you 3rd or 4th survivor of frenzy hit?

    thats very general way to deny down from legion

    This rework has also lowkey sabotaged Legion players against high tier survivors. They take you very seriously now. It's a lethal power in theory now, they don't want that idea to become a reality. They will spread, repair, heal, bodyblock and play so good that you really cannot do anything as a slightly above average killer besides tunnel, slug and camp. I know people wanted Lethal Legion, but I can't believe i'm saying that I miss their non-lethal power now, I miss that being a Frank's tape thing. Legion matches used to be chilled out, with pretty skill based chases, you were an M1 killer, you had to mindgame and you didn't need to deal with that first health state, it was DH then down. Oh well, guess I'll just main Nurse now
