Device to not get detected by Bloodhound's scan

There should be an item/device that makes the player undetectable by Bloodhound's scan (also Crypto's, and the digital threat), which could be stored in the same slot as the heat shield/mobile respawn beacon.

Before someone says such a device would make his tactical useless, remember that there is both the digital threat and bloodhound's scan that see enemies inside Bangalore's smoke, which make her tactical useless in those cases. Also, not everyone would carry that device since it would be stored in a very important slot.

    @NandoRos2077Bloodhound’s scans definitely need to be nerfed so I am for this device being added to the game or his scans being nerfed in general like not being able to scan caustics traps or wattsons fences, not being able to track a players movements during the scan, etc because just running around throwing scans because you are scared is too rewarding compared to crypto who has to actually earn his scans

    Imo bloodhound’s scans need a rework, if you are in the center of the scan you should have your movements tracked to reward for a good scan but if you are near the sides of the scan then you will only be highlighted

    Also the scans every 6 seconds during his ultimate is insane... imo they should turn bloodhound’s ult into a minigame like every knock you get adds like 5 seconds or something to his ult currently so take that same logic and apply it to his scans... every knock you get will earn you another scan to force bloodhound’s to earn their scans by actively participating in the fight instead of just hiding somewhere throwing out panic scans constantly to know where everyone is around them

    @TheApexLegendNub you have pretty good points there! However, only the fact that the lobby is ALWAYS INFESTED with Bloodhounds should be enough to show that this character is OP and needs to be nerfed urgently. Along with Octane, he has been the most used character in the current season, and based on the patch notes for the next one, he will not get nerfed but Octane will - I really don't understand that kind of logic.

    That's why I think a device like that would make him less OP and, consequently, less chosen.

    @NandoRos2077 I have no idea why the devs don’t see the problem with bloodhound... they literally think that just by removing assists in ranked he won’t be played as often when he is one of the most dominate picked characters in pubs, ranked, and competitive and likely for the Arena too
