Crypto buff season 25

So I was wondering if crypto was getting a buff? He can be used in a variety of ways such as getting banners , the emp and scans. Honestly we need a buff for him so the crypto mains can still thrive without being on the drone for the whole game lol. All im wondering is if we can get one for my boi crypy crypto

    Unfortunately no.I think if they remove the ring tick damage to the drone crypto will be better.Bloodhound is completely USELESS thanks to the ability for all recons to highlight enemies just by aiming or bloodhound being unable to see through gas or smoke.Apex Devs only focus on what pros want 

  • Idea: Crypto as a Jamming Specialist
     
    1. Passive or Tactical Ability: Signal Jammer
    • Crypto deploys a jamming emitter via his drone in a small radius (about 10–15 meters).
    • Enemies inside this radius can’t send pings and have limited minimap information (e.g., blurred or missing enemy icons).
    • Lasts 8–10 seconds with a fairly long cooldown for balance.
     
     
    2. Ultimate: EMP Jam
    • A large EMP-like effect that disrupts all enemy gadgets, scanners, and abilities within a radius (about 20 meters) for 6–8 seconds:
    • Enemies can’t use active abilities (similar to Seer’s ult but shorter duration).
    • All drones (including Crypto’s) inside the radius get disrupted or disabled.
    • Enemies receive a “Jammed” status that prevents them from sending pings for about 2 seconds.
     
     
    3. Drone Synergy
    • While airborne, Crypto’s drone emits a weak jamming signal that slightly reduces enemy scanner ranges (like Bloodhound or Seer) or delays enemy pings.
    • Adds more utility and a defensive playstyle for Crypto.
     
     
    Benefits & Gameplay Impact
    • Strengthens Crypto’s role as a strategic controller and information disruptor.
    • Provides counterplay against meta legends that rely heavily on pings, scanners, and mobility.
    • Encourages team-oriented play and map control.
    • Fits perfectly with Crypto’s hacker and drone background.

    Drone Companion

    Crypto’s drone hovers passively around him, automatically scanning enemies within 15 meters every 10 seconds without manual activation.

    🧠 Provides Crypto with constant intel updates and lets him focus more on positioning and teamplay.

    1. B)

    Signal Jammer

    Crypto’s drone emits a jamming field in a 10-meter radius, disabling enemy pings and blurring minimap icons while active. Lasts 8 seconds with a 25-second cooldown.

    🧠 Enhances Crypto’s control abilities by disrupting enemy communication.

    🔷 Tier 2 – Choose One:

    1. C)

    EMP Jam (Ultimate Enhancement)

    Crypto’s ultimate also disables enemy gadgets and temporarily silences their active abilities for 6 seconds inside the EMP radius.

    🧠 Increases the disruptive power of the ultimate.

    1. D)

    Rapid Recharge

    Crypto’s tactical cooldown is reduced by 2 seconds for every enemy scanned or damaged by his drone within 5 seconds after a scan.
