When is Legion getting nerfed?
It should be clear by now the Legion buff was entirely too far. The community, especially survivors, is not having a good time against him. There is no counterplay to his power and the amount of time mending all match is absurd. With perks like Sloppy Butcher, Ruin, thanatophobia, and so many of these perks it is literally impossible to do the survivor objective. But most importantly, he is miserable to play against. I would rather play against a Prayer Beads Spirit. I never thought I would ever say such a thing.
As survivor, the teams have only managed to escape once or twice. All the other matches if you look at the player statuses, the entire team is a broken state or mending state 24x7. He is too fast and zero counterplay to his power.
As killer, I played about 5 matches. In 3 of those matches the survivors were paralyzed and I won all 5. I quit playing because it was clearly too easy.
Sure, the new music is nice but it is not a fair game. I hope we get an announcement soon of a correction patch.

Alright sluzzy, enjoy the nurse and blight games.

Pretty sure somebody said Sluzzy mains nurse, that's why he doesn't complain about her

"The community, especially survivors, is not having a good time against him"
Is there another group that is going against the Legion?
48 -
Legion was very popular before buff, now he is the new wraith and freddy. Brainless easy win
3 -
The crows don't like their music, it's too loud for them.
7 -
Explain how he's a "brainless easy win"
29 -
Uhhh what? Legion moved up a slot maybe two on tier lists. Almost everything was pure QoL updates.
17 -
I mean, I'm having a fun time against Legion, and I've done well in my matches against them. Their counterplay is pretty simple, and hasn't really changed with the gameplay update much. Maybe its just a you problem?
11 -
Press M2 and follow the auras and there's nothing the survivors can do.
5 -
I do think he needs to be nerfed a little. There's no counter to his frenzy and the fact it instadowns now is a little silly. He's like nurse again because he ignores every survivor defence (windows and pallets) and gets free hits, and then instadowns with his super speed.
They either need to remove his extra speed, his instadown or his pallet vaulting. I'm sorry but being able to vault a pallet and instadown a survivor is not balanced.

Spread out
Don't heal too often
Don't drop pallets unless you're gonna go down
????????
33 -
You're acting ridiculous. He's still an m1 killer.
15 -
Don't touch my precious! HISSSS!
15 -
Nah nerf pig
9 -
I'm sorry but those unreasonable requests. It be like being put in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and saying all you have to do is swim and you won't drown.
Pallets don't work. It shouldn't be a miracle for everyone is on a large map all spread out. It just hardly happens in practice.
4 -
Run bond or empathjy
If you see a yellow aura, run away from it
It's not difficult
13 -
Pallets work you just can't pre drop and w shift against them you actually nnes to stun them. And yes you can spread out if your team doesn't do it that's a team problem.
So I see you often say this killer is to strong that killer perk is to strong survivors suffer here and there. So I would really like to ask you what killer do you think is good designed? And I mean not good because if the survs use there brains they can counter his whole power and play with him. I mean actually good designed that it can feel like a slog that you need to mend over and over isn't false I can get that but that's there theme you know just like plague has her infection that renders all heals useless wich can slog to.

Surprisingly I think Legion is fine. The only thing I think could be toned down is the never sleep pills. It's super dumb and shouldn't be the meme addon.
I have been playing against them the same way I always have except for maybe waiting a bit longer to mend and it's been fine for me. At the end of the day they can still only down you with their basic M1 except they can injure a bit faster now.
3 -
Is it another Wraith situation?
They buffed him a little making him viable just tiny bit... And then they nerfed him throwing him again into the depths of tier lists.
Do you survivors really want Blight/Nurse only? Because that's how you get them.
13 -
Legion wasn't much of a big deal prior to the Patch nor are they now..
6 -
The instadown is counterable. Camp a pallet and drop it as soon as he hits you with frenzy, it's a guaranteed stun which forces him out of his power
11 -
So you'd much prefer going against Nurse who goes through everything or Blight who can dash around the map way easier than Legion can I thought you hated Blight.
Also broken state what is Plague than an even more broken state who's still far better than Legion?
If anything Legion is breath of fresh air rather than constantly going against the stronger killers in high mmr and you get to jam out to some crazy music now.
Give Legion a couple weeks or so than judge there power as players are still adjusting to this new change for both sides. Not everyone is gonna learn it right away.
6 -
Worse thing about the changes is the new music. Stock guitar riffs and Casio keyboards sound terrible
1 -
I wonder which of the Legion members have the highest kill rate, I'd say Susie cuz ... thighs
6 -
Thank you for highlighting just how inefficient low mmr survivors are that they can't implement the most basic and easy to execute counter:
Separate
I have watched so many streamers on both sides comment how this simple tactic still strips legion of any noticeable difference. Survivors split and legion is left unable to chain attacks.
The only time I see legion looking excessive is against horrible survivors that dont understand the killer and hide in the corner instead of making more distance.
12 -
Unfortunately 99% of this games player-base think they're playing at high MMR, regardless of the side they play. As a result, everyone deludes themselves into thinking that whoever they lose against must be "OP" and thus needs to be nerfed.
10 -
He shouldn't.
15 -
I'd say the unfortunate thing is that the devs pander to that portion of the community without regard for the gaps it creates once the players get better.
7 -
I think there's a difference in being viable and overpowered and very unfun.
Wraith was atrocious, he had to be nerfed a little. Legion is the same way.
3 -
Lemme guess you cleanse repeatedly against plague also? Legion is a worse plague, don't break pound gens he's screwed. The damage you can do when they are greedy for multiple hits and keep running off. I've beat every legion so far, I been feel wounded 6 times in one match and never downed.
2 -
Okay buffed Legion hasn't even been out a week and people are already asking for a nerf. Legion is one of my mains and I'm honestly astounded by how powerful they are now; some tweaks were a bit much I'll admit, but Legion deserves this buff. They're lethal now and I love it.
0 -
If you hate playing vs killer so much, then stick to killer
4 -
The funny thing is, the OP is a Nurse main!
And I knew who wrote this post just from the title.
9 -
Burning question.
You single Sluzzy?
Aside for all your post here I'm willing to bet your a awesome person outside of DBD.
3 -
*They shouldn't.
1 -
He instadowns on the fifth chained hit. That's extremely difficult to do and has tons of counters (of whicj the simplest is don't all stay in one spot). Legion doesn't need any nerfs: if anything, Legion is either below average or average at best now.
3 -
No simping allowed
5 -
Legion does not need a nerf.
Legion is fine.
If you got instadowned after a pallet slide that means your team let him get ALL FIVE HITS OFF.
3 -
no they fine
2 -
Sluzzy, have you ever even looked at Legion’s kit? Legion literally forces Survivors to play efficiently, splitting up. If your team can't deal with them, you're just bad and couldn't even win against a trapless Trapper
9 -
This is why we will be forever stuck with Nurse, Blight and Spirit for the next year(s). Keep nerfing the weak killers that finaly got some love after year(s) of requesting.
9 -
This is sad just sad he need love not nerf

IF survs could see the killer before the game start
1 -
I saw the poster, I clicked the discussion and grabbed me some popcorn 😂
3 -
go watch some actually good survivors. They will show you how to counter Legion. Even his best build with the iri is counterable. People just need to figure it out. I sincerely hope the devs never take any of your troll suggestions seriously.
6 -
Legion themselves fighting over who uses the next mixtape
2 -
honestly, I enjoy nurse matches more than legion. I lose a lot, but the match is fun.
2 -
I agree with you that playing against Legion in Solo Q is annoying. The problem is that the random mates mostly never know how to play against a Legion. But (s)he's definitely not OP.
If each survivor works alone on a gen and doesn't heal themselves all the time, you're left with a simple M1 killer. With my SWF it's still a GG EZ.
So Legion is a Solo Q noobstomper like Doc. But both are still not good against competent people.
0 -
If you balance for the top 0.1%, that means nobody else can escape. Not fair and balanced.
