What makes ppl think that Seer's abilities being nerfed is the main reason that he is rarely used today and in the bottom tier for legends?
Almost every apex player I know, stopped using him sorely based on the fact that using a legend that wallhacks says something about you as a player. My friends refuse to use him because they feel like they are cheating or using a crutch or feel others look down upon them for resorting to a legend that hacks to play. Using a Seer, to some says - "I suck and have to use a legend with built in hacks to be good." I personally have no respect for anyone that uses a Seer period...(go ahead, personal attacks welcome).
Scanning abilities are not the problem when made right and made to be used in a way that doesn't support hacking or breaks the game. Bloodhound is proof of that. He has always had scanning abilities yet is not OP and his abilities come at a cost. I personally feel BH is balanced beautifully.
I also don't feel Seer's tac or ult is an issue at all at this point. His PASSIVE is still and no matter what Respawn Devs try to do with it - it will always be broken, a mess, absurd, ridiculous, pathetic and down right sickening. Still to this day.... the so called nerf they did to his passive was nothing! It did nothing, it made no difference....you can still with the touch of one button (one you use constantly) can wallhack well past 75 meters 360. Has anyone actually spectated someone using a Seer?? Do you see how pathetic and greasy it is and looks to see the person hitting aim and doing a quick 360 every couple seconds? I haven't met a skilled player that uses Seer and more so that wants to resort to using a Seer. Integrity believe it or not DOES matter to a lot of online gamers.
The Dev that made him and more so, who thought up his passive, should be ashamed, fired and has no business being in the gaming design industry - FACTS. Whomever it was - you disgust me!
So before you go assuming Seer isn't used cause he has been nerfed to the ground - think again. First time I used him, my partner and I won...it was just stupid, we knew where everyone was at all times...Tactical consideration was gone! The skill needed to be good and navigate properly to come out of a fire fight was gone! The whole match felt that way - might as well have been using real hacks to wipe the competition. It wasn't even fun. After we won, we felt like a couple of *, and swore we would never use him again. We don't wanna win that way - its the same reason we don't use hacks, or want to use hacks. We want to earn our wins fairly and with integrity and some form of honor. However not all feel that way clearly - As Apex is riddled with hackers and cheaters. It surprises me that more of these douche bags don't use Seer more often.
Seer and Seer's passive is the sole reason I lost faith in Respawn Dev team! It is also the reason I did not vote for Respawn for the awards they were nominated for. It is also the reason I no longer get excited for new legends being made and added, out of fear of the same * Seer brought to the game. I feel the Devs are running out of ideas for abilities and I am certain at some point we will see more Hacks as legend abilities in the future. No body seems to learn from their mistakes these days.
