Nobody Is Fooled By Mirage's Ultimate Anymore...
I was hyped when my main was getting the "Life of The Party" Ultimate, but as soon as I reached Silver Ranked, I'm noticing that no matter what I do when activating my Ult (spin 360 circles, run at them, run away from them) the enemy is smart enough to recognize which one the REAL me is.
There should be ZERO distinction between Mirage and his decoys. Yet, there it is. After dozens and dozens of failed attempts, enemies were finally friendly enough to share their secret....
The secret as to why Mirage's Ult works PERFECTLY FINE against me and my friends and even against the randoms we get partnered with, but whenever I use it, it's useless.
Mirage's discs light up and his decoys don't.
This is a MAJOR broken mechanic in ANY Legend's Ult.
Imagine Wraith's Ult being disabled by throwing a grenade next to it.
or Path's ziplines being shot and destroyed as they zip on it.
or Octane's Pad being destroyed by a grenade.
or Caustic's Gas Grenade burning away by throwing a thermite in the midst of it.
These Legend's Ultimates all work as designed from beginning to end without interruption and as intended. No weakness, no countermeasures, no high IQ to negate their usefulness.
But due to even SILVER RANKED players knowing how to INSTANTLY counter Mirage's Life of the Party, it is now useless.
Some may argue that using it will fool even the Diamond's & Predators for at most 1 second as they track you down and that one second could mean the difference between life and death. To that I say, "No". All of the other Legend's Ultimates aren't just considered effective for only one measly second before being deemed useless... They last the life of the Ultimate as it was created and intended and so should Mirage's Ult. Why does he deserve to get short-changed (again)?
Please, please FIX MIRAGE'S ULTIMATE so that he looks exactly like his decoys. They're not fooling 90% of gamers I encounter and this makes him oh so broken (again).
