Wraith Season 5 Shadow Nerf....

If they did nerf her without putting it in the notes then that's bad on respawn. But wraith did need a nerf. Shes the highest picked legend and has been since laumch almost so she needs a nerf so people don't play her as much to balance her out. 

@DoomSpartan117This comment make zero sense, I dont even main wraith and know really all she has now is a small hitbox and the ability to move teammates (not easy to take advantage of unless your 3 stacked). You nerf/buff a character based on their ability to always win in a fight due to their tactical/ult. You don't nerf them because of their likability.

"Hey people like playing this character. She's obviously 1000000x better then the rest nerf her"

TSM Hal said the same thing when Season 5 went live. He said she feels slower. I do believe she was ninja nerfed. 

It could also be a bug that needs to be fixed.

Lifeline cannot move her healing drone for example. Another bug or ninja nerf. 

TSM Hal pointed this out in his stream that she feels more slow now! 

Yes her portal and phase speed was nerfed and it wasn`t in the patch notes.

This is her actual speed numbers:

In season 4, her Portal Speed was 418.60, way more if you slide jump and so on.

Your tactical alone increase your speed to 327.14, and if its a during your ultimate, your speed becomes - 446,74.

In Season 5 they actually lower it more, now its less during portal and phase. Its 364 in her portal and 284,47 during phase. If you are using her phase during portal its 388.47.

Normal holstered speed is 299, so during her portal right now, its around 22% increase. 

In season 4, her speed increase was 50% more, which was absurd.

I think that she needs a speed buff to her portal, but season 4 the % was too big. Don`t know if 364 right now is in that sweet spot tho.

We actually don`t know how Respawn feel for that and what is their view for her portal. They may think that she needs a slight speed boost so she can dodge and weave better during her portal and makes her harder to hit, but not to be used as a self escape mechanism, aka season 4 50% boost and no regular legend to be able to chase you during your portal.

Have in mind that your speed increase more when you slide jump and so on.

But yeah this is another hidden nerf to Wraith.

It does because people don't play this game to lose. Most people want to win so they pick the characters with the best abilities/chances to win. Why else would respawn buff the unpicked legends like mirage and gibby? And then nerf pathfinder? It's so people would use other legends. Once gibby was buffed his play rate went way up. And when path was nerfed his went down. Its not because people suddenly liked those legends more or less. It was because their power changed. By your logic if respawn wanted to improve a legends pick rate they would just make that legend cooler so people would like them more. But thats not what they do. You would have to be either really unintelligent or in denial to think that legends power has nothing to do with their pick rate.

Post never said highest speed it said highest pick rate. Which is true. Statistically she gets picked over 20% of the time while all the other legends get picked between 5-10%
