Mirage changes to make him more of a TeamPlayer

  1. His ultimate should be ( If any of his teammates are within 6 metres inside his ultimate range they should get his cloaking ability too and has the option to leave whenever they want too keep in mind after you leave the cloaking there should be a negative effect like a blurry screen for 2seconds so theres balance.
  2. While being cloaked ( Mirage shouldn’t have any loud footsteps nor thermal detection and aim assist shouldn’t lock onto him, but obviously after coming out of his ultimate he should get a blurry screen for approximately 2-3 seconds)
  3. His bamboozle clone ( If they're shot at by an enemy they should reveal the person aura for 1-2 seconds.

Thats just my input on making him a team player since he’s under used a lot.

  • Hmm. Interesting ideas to improve Mirage in my opinion.

    Something though that you may have missed (idk). So, when you say that teammates should be cloaked in that radius might be an issue.

    What if you're playing Mirage right, and you are going to cloak, now your teammates are next to you so they are going to cloak too, which means they have to put away their weapon

    which clearly would mess anyone up big time when they're in the middle of emptying their clip heh.

    The only thing that would fix that problem is to make it so that when cloaked/cloaking your weapon is not put away, and then make it so you can shoot but it will immediately reveal you.

    This would make it so if your teammate is shooting they wouldn't really be affected because as soon as they are cloaked they will uncloak.

    Of course, then you can't have that blur effect because that would just not work for that.

    Cool ideas though.

  • His footsteps sounds aren't the problem. I can see where he's running by looking at the dirty on the ground or water etc. However, if he's smart and doesn't move at all and is inside his clones, which people don't even shooting. He could potentially kill me. 

    The thing is, people who use Mirage never do that. They always running away to heal instead of stop moving. However, if you stop moving and the other player is looking for your footsteps such as myself. And we can't find your footsteps, we will heal right in front of you and since you're cloaked, you can't do anything unless you reveal yourself and which case. Chances are you're dead. 

  • I dont like the idea of the whole team being cloaked, sounds as it can be a tool to troll your team and straight up ruin a fight if used incorrectly.

    ive played mirage since launch. I like that they buffed his invisibility, but all they need to do with him his maybe give him more clones to send out, make his ultimate more confusing and change his passive as it is currently useless.

    His footsteps arent really a problem in my opinion, i think ive gotten out of almost every situation that i wanted to leave by using his ult and it just seems to work really. 

    what i think they should do to his ultimate is make it so you can control what the clones look and shoot at. Like decoys that can fire at enemies that you press Q on while they are active, you can sit among them, uncloak and fire at them for the ultimate bamboozle.

    he just needs to be more confusing for enemy players
