Never bring Legion back to 2v8

Look, I used to be the biggest apologist for this character, mainly because I think they have the best chase music in the game, but there is no denying the play patterns are terrible. The last two 2v8s before this one were not fun and it's almost entirely because of Legion, full stop. In the current 2v8 there is amazing killers diversity! I've seen Ghostfaces and Deathslingers and Trappers and Spirits and Blights and Huntresses and Weskers etc etc. It's not just Legion almost every single game or Legion/Oni. I think this character got their time in the sun and it's time to give them a rest; I don't care how they try to rework them, they are absolutely miserable to face, it's clear, at least to me, with this most recent 2v8 the mode is better off without them and they should NEVER bring them back.

    I saw all those killers the last time too. Had Legion maybe every 4 match and even then he was just one killer among the rest if survivors just did what they needed to do. Only thing people get annoyed about Legion is the constant mending. Just change his mechanic in 2v8 not cause deep wound but still mark the survivor so he still gets thrown out of his power when hitting the same survivor. The other reason why people got annoyed was the combo of Legion and Oni as their powers synergy very well. Its just interesting that its Legion that gets the blame and not Oni that is still one of the strongest killers in 2v8 even without Legion being in the mode. In my opinion Oni deserves nerfing as much as the 2v8 Legion.

    @Wezqu You must have been playing in a different region as me because when I was playing it was Legion 19/20 games.

    Agree. Felt out of place in 2v8 and I'd just straight up DC if it was a Legion.

    Agree. Legion just doesn't work in 2v8. Normally they are designed around having an easy injure but having a harder time to down survivors, but in 2v8 you have another killer power to cover that and it just breaks that balance. I don't think Legion should return and Plague probably shouldn't be added either

    I mean, they said they're reworking him so he might be fine next time around. He's meant to be a support killer to a bigger badder killer, all they really need to do is make him less useful to a wesker or a blight. Maybe remove deep wounds and only let him tag 4 people then if he does give him a longer cooldown.
