I'm a day 1 player and have loved the game ever since, but if there's one thing I've learned whilst playing, its that Apex doesn't know how to nerf things properly. First my beloved Pathfinder and no...

 Caustic's usage rate was also rapidly raising, going from 'Seeing him occasionally' to 'Seeing him every second game' - He ended up being nerfed. So I don't see how this comparison is in your favor.

Did you even bother to lookup usage stats.  Caustic was about 4% pre nerf, he's dropped to about 2.6% pick rate now.  That is not even remotely close to "usage rate rapidly rising.... seeing him every second game".

@RockDokRock Those stats aren't what the main developers said. His pick rate was 10 percent it dropped to 5 but his winrate hasn't changed.

    Can you give a link to that info?  Those aren’t even close to the numbers I’m seeing reported.

        @Ironflower196 Read his post and think logically. One of the reasons for the nerf was watson and Rampart were seeing no picks compared to caustic. The reason was something any defensive player could tell you alongside pros. They just suck. Caustic was the only viable character that could hold down a position that would slow rushers down. He now like watson and the others can no longer do what he was originally designed for without his slows and blinding effects back. Caustic is now in a worse state than season 1 where he was the worst legend in the game.
