Bloodhound the bot character
Im okay with every other character in this game, Horizon and Octane may be a little bit overpowered but at least they are fun characters that contributes to making the game more enjoyable. Bloodhound on the other hand is such a bot character designed to make your game miserable. This is reflected in his pick rate as I understand he has moved up to number 1 or 2 the last couple of seasons and almost every pro team use him. Bloodhounds scan is WAY too good in my opinion, it got insane range when it got buffed and not only does it reveal enemies in your close proximity - you along with your team (!!!) are also able to track them through walls for a couple of seconds after. It's so annoying, every time you try to initiate a fight or try to surprise the enemy he can just press a button and reveal your exact position along with limited wallhacks... So stupid and takes all the game sense out of the equation.
Respawn may be aware that he is a popular and a strong legend but removing assists on scan is not enough. Assists should have been removed a long time ago anyway, you should not be rewarded KP when you don't do any damage. Crypto is a recon character as well but he does not get assist for enemies he scans with his drone if he doesn't emp them. My solution to bloodhound is a simple nerf to his scan:
- Scans should only reveal the enemies position at the time of the scan without any tracking ability. It gives you such an advantage in a fight when not only bloodhound but also his teammates can track the enemy through walls.
- If this somehow is too big of a nerf, which I don't think it is, he could also be nerfed by making scans personal to bloodhound, only he can see the reveal of the scan and track the enemy. He then gets the information and has to communicate it to his teammates.
Either of the above would make him more balanced, at least in my opinion.
