What are your reasons for maining The Legion?

I have pretty much played out my desire to hit rank one in DBD and am looking for some killers to just have fun with more than playing to win. I was looking at the Legion as a killer I might want to get to play for fun. Looking for opinions on how he stands as an enjoyable killer at the moment

    They used to be super fun and super weak. Now their midtier at best and very boring. Play wraith for more fun. Since it's a better version of current legion

    I used to main him, but now he's slower than The Clown and Freddy and his hability to run feels slower too so...

    I'd tell you to try the new Freddy, The Clown and the Huntress if you're looking for fun. Getting someone with Freddy's blood pallets feel amazing, playing mindgames with the clown's gas to make them go where you want them to is pure strategy gameplay and the Huntress axe throw from far away is satisfying AH.

    Personally I enjoy him quite a bit, though I'm not 100% sure why lol.

    I think quickly moving around, vaulting windows + pallets like a survivor, and spreading damage around is pretty fun.

    Not sure about clown, definitely have played huntress a bit and right now sits at my 3rd main. Waiting a bit longer on Freddy just to see what the devs do with him

    Aside the most populare opinion, when played correctly, The Legion can be really effective and (subjectively) enjoyable.

    You asked for some reasons to play them. Well, here they are:

    The Legion is arguably the best killer to grind BP and Emblem Points. This is because their power let you fill deviousness and hunter, as well as brutality really quickly.

    Another good reason that i can give you is the fact that Legion isn't your classic aggressive-chaser killer, even if a lot of people think that, but is a great defensive killer. A complelty different playstyle.

    I dont anymore, they can be fun from time to time but the stun time and lack of speed add-ons really annoys me.

    Reasons i can give you to play legion is because salt :-)

    I don't "main" any killer, but I thoroughly enjoy Legion. I run Bloodhound, Sloppy Butcher, Discordance, and Surveillance. I try to keep everyone injured and then follow their blood trails when they run from gens and down them as quickly as possible. If they run to a particularly good loop I will usually just abandon the chase and find someone else, or circle around and approach the generator again from the side that has the good loop, which usually gets them to run toward me for a sec and then turn around.

    Isn't "mexican beaner" a redundant statement, since one word is a slur for the other word? Lol that guy is clearly a butt ass

    While I don't fully main them, I have a lot of fun with Legion. Something about running around like a maniac trying to stab people just makes me happy (don't take that too literally, please. I have enough people thinking I'm crazy as it is.) Also, people tend to get really cocky against Legion (and my actual main, Doctor, as well), and those that get cocky tend to slip up.

    Just don't expect to start doing amazing right off the bat.

    I main Legion for the wall hacks and the lore, but that's it. Power is 85% useless and punishes you for using it.

    I used to main legion because I made a good amount of bloodpoints every match and it was fun

    I haven't played them alot since their rework

    Wouldn't a stall perk like ruin or PGTW be better than bloodhound? Or do you have enough stall already with everyone needing to mend?

    Honestly he's not bad, not great either. He's different, but against great players you're gonna suffer. He is satisfying though especially at the purple ranks, it's a challenge but not too bad. His power usually always diminishes as the game goes on, can be amazing early on if people don't start running too early, but it's also good for securing the 4k when the game is pretty much won, useful for finding the selfish people who camp the hatch/wait in a locker while their team dies as he can see and grab people in lockers when killer instinct is active.

    I personally think Ruin is massively overrated and I generally hate having the community think certain perks are mandatory. PGtW would be fun but I prefer knowing exactly where survivors are at all times
