Would be legion too strong if
- We make iri button basekit, it's the most used add on and massively increase the strenght and counterplay planning = if legion vaults pallet in frenzy it breaks and on top of that legion would be granted 10 % haste for 15s as well (Unbound basekit)
- Whenever legion enters frenzy, his movespeed is 7m/s and is granted stun immunity for the duration of the frenzy, if you drop pallet on legion in frenzy, the pallet will be automatically broken and Legion's FF speed will decrease from 7m/s to 5m/s for 3s.
- Performing damage action replenish full power gauge.
- Blinding legion no longer ends frenzy
It's just a suggestion, not a fully thinked topic.

What would be the counterplay?
This is like asking - would it be broken if survivors got 5m/s base movement speed?

The counterplay would be exact same, spread out and don't let him 5th hit, bodyblock etc.

I did not notice they created new maps that are 10x as large as mother's dwelling. This suggestion basically guarantees you are going down. And not like you are eventually going down. It's like - nope to counterplay.
This would be balanced if gens took like 40s to complete base speed. But what's the game about then?
Also to address your point directly - even your counterplay would just not work. With that speed and those abilities, Legion would hit you in power, sprint in front of you and turn off the power for free 2nd hit (so like wraith, but better because of fast window jumping and pallet destroying). You can't make it to anything else in the meantime provided it's not a strong window. If it's pallet, then he can just destroy it with his new power.
This would be balance nightmare overall. Like technically this could work, but legion's power would need to have drastically reduced duration (say 5s) and drastically prolonged turn-off power cooldown (like 3+s). That would make him incredibly clunky and unsatisfying to play.

But there's 1 thing I agree with. Legion looks bad right now. He actually could use buff. My idea would be to give him something skill based, because the champion is already very linear and easy to play (hence you can't make him competitive in high elo, because low elo would get outright destroyed).
I can't think of something good. But the most sloppy way to fix him IMO would be to give him portals like something demogorgon or xenomorph has (but not like Freddy - it should be "our of combat movement") to help him get around in map.

Okey, I just opened an idea to further discussion, chill. May some of those suggestions seem good to you, despite adjustments or not?

maybe point 3 sounds ok. Still, I would rather have something that would help legion being viable in high mmr and this is not it

We are in 2025 and majority of players barely can dodge iri button.
You can make him stronger, or weaker - doesn’t matter. People hating him on his weakest state possible already-1 -
hes in a wierd situation because, he can be really frustrating with the right loadout with close to no counterplay.
the buffs he got, i think, he can have some numbers be tweaked and be fine, but basekit addons is a bit of an iffy.
because it feels so bizare to like ask for example, survivors getting basekit adrenaline. because they survived all game.0 -
I think the addon is fine as it is because making it basekit would reduce ways to deal with legion which wouldn't be good.
I would even say legion would be fine if the power level if the strongest things in the game weren't as high as they were.
