legion needs nerfed & buffed
that's right, you read that correctly.
Now it's fairly obvious why legion needs a buff, he's fairly weak unless you use THE CHEESE STRAT. Which leads us on to..
legion needs nerfed because of a fairly simple cheese strat that everyone is now using and is the reason I am no longer playing survivor (until patched).
Basically you frenzy dbl hit someone, which is guaranteed BTW and then all you do is break chase by hanging back or looking at the ground and following the blood trail then the survivor has no option but to keep running meaning they drop due to not mending or they try to mend and you go up and hit them.
There is ZERO counter to this, it does not matter how good you are as a survivor you WILL go down to this 100% of the time.
So yeah, you need to do something about the chase mechanic or perhaps even remove this killer, or change his mechanic completely.
Honestly this will lead to survivors not playing the game and I can't blame them, no reason to play vs something that has no counter and guarantee's you WILL die.

Legion needs a rework3

I agree, I just came back to play and I uninstalled this game immediately. I will not be playing a game that gives killers a freebie just because they can't take the chase of survivors. No thanks. This used to be a fun game, but I'm tired of having killers that we have no counter at all and makes it harder for us to play while making it easier for them to play.

The chase doesn't break if you are somewhat close to the killer. I don't know the distance exactly, but I think it's around 10-15 meters. If you stay close, the killer will never lose chase. You can even back track a little, and make the killer start a chase again, that he isn't meaning to.
Just because you can't counter a play, doesn't mean there isn't any counterplay.

Also the killer needs to be good at this, I have a hard time following scratch marks so I don't think I could do this effectively. Also the longer you're in a chase the more points you get, if you know he's doing this just don't let it happen, continue the chase, run in front of them, use their crappy blood trail technique against them and waste their time just running away from them for as long as you can so your team mates can do the Gens. Might as well keep using Adrenaline for a while until you can come up with a better counterplay instead of just giving up.

Lithe is actually pretty good against Legion, if you see him coming at you vaulting and getting that burst of speed usually will waste his power completely. But it's true it is really difficult to avoid against good Legions. I could see that walk back thing getting annoying, but I also see counter play to it, like having an ally misdirect them with their own scratch marks, while you walk away. Or perhaps vaulting in certain areas. The game though you are probably dead. lol

I would agree the "cheese strat" is extremely frustrating for survivors and also, is not very fun for the killer too! Would appreciate if this strategy could be discouraged somehow thru a rework...
@Spicybarbecue
Would disagree [double] hit is guaranteed. Legion's speed makes him arguable easier to juke in some situations...@SmokePotion
Sustained chase requires killer to look at survivor, not distance. Running into the killer's line-of-sight will usually reinitiate chase but that risks killer just regularM1-ing the survivor.1 -

Survivors still have the upper hand in the moment if you have the right perks, and know what you're doing. Plus there's always a counter play to everything.

Lol. There is no counter to legion. It's a braindead killer that just have to wait his power to come back to use it again.
I agree with the OP, Legion needs a twist.
As a killer it's sometime frustrating especially if you play "fairly" (No NOED, No camping), you won't kill much unless you're playing against bad survivors, that stay packed or that waste time healing.
As a SOLO survivor goddammn it's so boring. I don't enjoy it at all, there is no chase fun, no challenge of countering, nothing. You just do gens and hope your team mates know how to play against him. And cause this killer just brung survivors players to play killer, 90% of them camp and use noed. (on PS4).
Legion is bad designed at all points. It's basically just a money maker that please survivor players.
Nice marketting lel.

Well you're just going against bad killer's sorry man. I play Legion and I don't do that, don't need to and I still get 3-4 kills per game average. Do I occasionally lose a survivor, yes, but not on purpose. Have I done NOED cheese on him? I've tried, but when 90% of my games end with hatch I don't get a chance to use it. And I do it without Frank's Mixed Tape. Bad player's play every killer. Facecamping Billy's and Letherfaces, proxying Nurse's, toxic Legion, iri ebony Huntress. It happen's but it doesn't make the killer bad just the player's who need to abuse it to get somewhere in the game bad. If you truly want to blame someone for this strat blame the content creators that promote the play style to thousands of viewers.
Survivor's have had DS, and BT for a long time now, you use what the game gives you and offers you on either side. No one side is more toxic than the other.
Hatch was created to stop survivor's from dc'ing, NOED was created to stop killer's from dc'ing. Either side get completely owned they both have an out, a reason to stay and finish the game out. Balance.0
