Basically my matches are Legion, Legion, Legion another killer, Legion, Legion, Legion, Legion, Legion, Legion its getting really annoying because me and my friends have basically started giving up at this point its not fun to mend and do gens without any real chases tehre is almsot 0 looping spots that are fun because they just leave if you run towards something good and when you do get it you have to mend and he runs away :)

Dont get me wrong he is pretty unique and his ability but it is by far the most boring one too...

I dont care if he is good or bad that has nothing to do with it and i dont wanna go against any killer for 10 matches in a row but legion is well the one i'd want the least because the matches are really repetetive and not unique in any shape or form. Its literally Mend, Mend, Mend, Mend, Mend, Mend the whole damn match.

Why is his pickrate so damn high when he is so weak and basically no one enjoys going against him?...

    He's not weak anymore.

    Truth is he's now really damn fun to play since he doesn't have to deal with old DH, hardcounters new DH, and Thana got buffed.

    Thana should just be nerfed to 16% reduction on Repair and 12% reduction on Healing only.That would be cool. Then remove the Cleansing and Sabo reductions. Would make it a niche perk and be far more reasonable when combined with the new gen times.

    The problem I have with the legions I face is the games are soooo unbearably long. I kid you not.... Like last night when I had to face a legion with thana + ruin + pain the game took so long at one point we only got 3 gens done, and 2 people were dead. It was just me and one person, we just gave up. It was like already 15+ minutes into the match. I got so tired of mending, looping and repeat. It came to a point where we both just stood in front of the legion to just kill us.

    I prefer a fast paced game to be honest, then a slow paced one. The gens already are unbearably long to do with stack on pain+ thana + ruin on top of it.

    Legion should have been fully reworked instead of buffed honestly. No one likes mending and they still have no chase power besides the unavoidable free injure, so nobody's happy. He's always gonna be in a state where he's too strong or too weak, and if neither then just too annoying. I get it's fun to turn off your brain and run fast and slash people, but you have to have some empathy for the other side's experience. Use thanatophobia or the purple mending add-on and it's DC worthy unless you have a good team, and good luck finding that in solo q.

    They should just rework him to give him disguise powers. That'd be so fun and creepy. He can still have the frenzy too just make it so he has to earn it by hitting people when disguised or something, and it doesn't apply mending. Getting everyone injured, mending and a guy downed in less than a minute from the start of the game with no prequisite aside an addon or two is miserable to play against.

    Legion is so cool I just wish they were fun and interactive and skillful. Trickster is the same. Such wastes of potential :(

    This reminds me I've not played Legion yet in 6.1.0

    So far it has been Blight, Bubba, Clown, Doctor, Huntress, Hag, Nurse Trapper.

    Now I need to try, thanks for the suggestion. I'm guessing Thanatophobia is still good, given he tends to have everyone hurt? 😋

    yea thanatophobia is okay on legion im also gonna give him a shot i mean why have my games ruined when i can ruin other players games and have fun myself :)

    Its boring to play survivor becuase no matter how good you play one bad teammate not doing gens is enough to throw the whole match on killer you dont have to rely on teammates + its easier now

    Other good perks on Legion is bamboozle, monstrious shrine is not that bad anymore and it forces survivor to go for saves much quicker turning a hook state from 60 sec to 48 sec combine this with scourge hook pain resonance and you're set


    One more thing clown didnt get any changes right? i love him but he is underwhelming to play but very fun!

    Being dependent on teammates playing correctly is often annoying, yes. The MMR is supposed to fix that.

    Clown get the same slight buffs as the other M1 killers. I had good results with him but of course many players are still getting used to the changes.

    How can you defend this, legion is trash to go against full stop even more so now that he’s in 3 out of 5 games from my experience

    I almost feel sorry for Legion mains. They're just trying to have fun with a killer they enjoy playing.

    I don't think they realise just how much everyone despises them.

    I actually don't care about facing more Legions, and 'mending simulator' doesn't bother me, but my last game vs Legion lasted for OVER AN HOUR! This is ridiculous how long it's taking to do these gens. I don't ever want to do that again...

    yea i just tested something on clown with STBFL + flask of bleach with something like Ether vol (makes them slower and the duration on the survivor longer) on clown is broken its basically a budget "instdown" because after a hit it takes you around 6 - 8 seconds to catch up again :p
