Invis Mirage is horrible for the game
Mirage is just super bad for the game atm.
Especially in wildcard he is horrible.
His counters require extreme luck, experience, eyesight, speed + a good gaming set up.
And He rewards people how play mirage for doing dumb moves, like
- Going for the rez in the middle of a hall.
- Running into the open instead of safety.
- Be extra dumb like standing in the open and people just assume they're a decoy.
He removes the rewards people earn, when they win a fight against a mirage.
- a knocked mirage can go missing while invis way to easy.
- The animation for a respawn means that with certain guns even if you get there time, you can fire 4 shots with a gun like the wingman into the same spot and only hit 2 shots cause he moves in the rez animation.
- Right after he gets off his rez he can go and pop his ult, then pop a shield cell, to guarantee about 2 seconds of visibility in 18 seconds. By then he's half health with 25 shield.
- And they chances their teammate hasn't made it by that time is super slim.
Countering the ult, you can't fairly counter it Either.
- 1 you are lucky and see it activates and you can track the flickering mirage which is impossible if they don't run straight out.
- 2 if they get the ult off you either spend a mag finding the right mirage, either your lucky and find him on the first shot. If not you are just dead
- 3 wait for them to finish healing, reloading or respawning ally then let them start shooting you so you can shoot back. Just make sure you have no ping and get pure headshots with a better gun than the mirage.
- 4 if they have another teammate its definitely game over.
The invis healing
- Not everyone has the perfect headset and hearing to track the noise.
- He can instantly go from being invisiblity to shooting.
- 5 second recharge between being invisible for 10 seconds via the Phoenix kit is to fast.
- To counter either,
- 1 get lucky with shots in the air first try.
- 2 wait for him to appear again and hope you have - no ping, better gun, get headshots, and snap to his position before he pulls his trigger.
His upgrades.
- giving him access to every other class consoles, perk bins, and the ability to scan care packages as the first upgrade is far more than the standard like pathys where he only gets access to 1 beacon option . Swap it with the lvl 3 perk of "me two" at least.
His use in wildcard
- people are constantly stacking him to have 2-3 in a team, and its impossible to counter then your stuck in 14-21 decoys to find the right one.
- When he is combined with the power sword and is blocking there's no way to tell if you are hitting the right one because it doesn't give any response when you hit the power sword.
He has been a hassle in wild card since wildcard was added, and the devs seem to be to big of a mirage fan club to see it.
He is a net negative to the game atm, causing more hate than enjoyment.
