He is one for the low tier legends and among the least picked legends. I wonder if they ever fix it…

@Cheese9Man Clearly his uncle works at Respawn lol

@damsonwhufndthis Gonna wear my tinfoil hat here. I honestly think that they deliberately overpowered him and they already have a ready-to -go patch for the nerf. It was the fastest nerf a new legend got. I believe it was just 2 weeks from the start of the season, Seer was nerfed to the ground unlike other OP legends like Horizon where she was slowly nerfed over time.@Kel We all know that they can’t remove a legend. Lol. I 100% agree that we need defensive legends though. The last one was more than a year ago with Rampart. Every new legend has been a recon or a mobility legend except for Fuse but basing from the leaks, it’s more likely that we’ll get more of the same types of legends.

I think the 'problem' with Seer was that when he came out, everyone wanted to give him a go (which is only natural). This lead to lobbies with 20 Seers in it. During a fight, the screen would be come a complete mess of Seer's tacticals and ults. It was terrible, and led to people screaming 'Seer is OP!' as opposed to 'Too many people are playing Seer!' which is what was actually happening. So, to stop people abandoning Apex they gave Seer several nerfs. As a result, Seer is now not that attractive a legend.His lines are dumb too. "Drop here, 'tis Beautiful!" - vomit.

What makes ppl think that Seer's abilities being nerfed is the main reason that he is rarely used today and in the bottom tier for legends?Almost every apex player I know, stopped using him sorely based on the fact that using a legend that wallhacks says something about you as a player. My friends refuse to use him because they feel like they are cheating or using a crutch or feel others look down upon them for resorting to a legend that hacks to play. Using a Seer, to some says - "I suck and have to use a legend with built in hacks to be good." I personally have no respect for anyone that uses a Seer period...(go ahead, personal attacks welcome). Scanning abilities are not the problem when made right and made to be used in a way that doesn't support hacking or breaks the game. Bloodhound is proof of that. He has always had scanning abilities yet is not OP and his abilities come at a cost. I personally feel BH is balanced beautifully. I also don't feel Seer's tac or ult is an issue at all at this point. His PASSIVE is still and no matter what Respawn Devs try to do with it - it will always be broken, a mess, absurd, ridiculous, pathetic and down right sickening. Still to this day.... the so called nerf they did to his passive was nothing! It did nothing, it made no difference....you can still with the touch of one button (one you use constantly) can wallhack well past 75 meters 360. Has anyone actually spectated someone using a Seer?? Do you see how pathetic and greasy it is and looks to see the person hitting aim and doing a quick 360 every couple seconds? I haven't met a skilled player that uses Seer and more so that wants to resort to using a Seer. Integrity believe it or not DOES matter to a lot of online gamers. The Dev that made him and more so, who thought up his passive, should be ashamed, fired and has no business being in the gaming design industry - FACTS. Whomever it was - you disgust me!So before you go assuming Seer isn't used cause he has been nerfed to the ground - think again. First time I used him, my partner and I won...it was just stupid, we knew where everyone was at all times...Tactical consideration was gone! The skill needed to be good and navigate properly to come out of a fire fight was gone! The whole match felt that way - might as well have been using real hacks to wipe the competition. It wasn't even fun. After we won, we felt like a couple of *, and swore we would never use him again. We don't wanna win that way - its the same reason we don't use hacks, or want to use hacks. We want to earn our wins fairly and with integrity and some form of honor. However not all feel that way clearly - As Apex is riddled with hackers and cheaters. It surprises me that more of these douche bags don't use Seer more often. Seer and Seer's passive is the sole reason I lost faith in Respawn Dev team! It is also the reason I did not vote for Respawn for the awards they were nominated for. It is also the reason I no longer get excited for new legends being made and added, out of fear of the same * Seer brought to the game. I feel the Devs are running out of ideas for abilities and I am certain at some point we will see more Hacks as legend abilities in the future. No body seems to learn from their mistakes these days.

People will do everything to get wins and the upper hand (and even use cheats just to win games). How about BH players?

The only smart thing said there is "continuing to evaluate the reveal meta"
Yes, please do! That whole mess that is seer in regards to reveal meta needs some serious re-evaluating!
As in, remove, never make that horrendous mistake again. Learn from your mistakes or learn from Travis's mistakes.

@damsonwhufndthis Seer's just bad. Just look at his release, everyone played him and he was insane. They nerfed him too much and now he's not played. Bloodhound is quite popular, like you said, so clearly tracking abilities are popular and wanted - they just went way too far with the Seer nerf.

Agreed, i just noticed since launch that BH was never an issue....cant remember hearing anyone complain about his abilities existing in regards to reveal meta.
Seer, was a whole new level that blurred the line between scanning ability and down right wall hacking ability, crossing over into a dangerous territory. Nerfed, buffed etc... makes no difference with Seer. He is disgusting and has no business being in a competitive BR game. Other than removing him or revamping his entire abilities kit - i see no other option working.
