He is literally one of the least picked legends, if he was that broken, why wouldn't he be more picked? I do have to agree that Revtane combo is really good, but Rev by his own is not near as broken as seer.

- hayhor5 years agoHero@pandareno1999 It also depends on what level you are playing the game at. Within plat and diamond ranked there are a lot of revtanes.

@hayhor Obviously. My point still stands. Also, it's pretty universally acknowledged that Rev is not the underlying issue in that problem meta, it is Octane's pad. Neither legend is "broken" on their own, they have a broken interaction. I was more referring to the comment regarding lifeline.
- 5 years ago@pandareno1999 So you basically are saying auto res, a radar which has no cooldown and shows you which direction the closest enemy is and a ability that gives you 2 lifes, is ok right ?
fml I'm losing braincells reading comments like this i swear
Just try to play high ranked games against these legends I mention and I'm not talking about plat or diamond xD, I'm talking about pred lobbies. Lets see how much fun you'll have when you get rev ulted every game or when you are solo in a god spot hiding and then suddenly a wild Seer pops up out of nowhere without noise or when you manage to kill 2 on a squad and the third is a lifeline and you manage to take down lifeline at last but his teammates res while you were fighting her and you die cuz u basically fought 5 players not 3.
You can't argue this, they are all legends with broken abilities which should not be in the game period.- pandareno19995 years agoHero+
@Ryuta47 For the life of me, I cannot find any reference to Seer in my posts in this thread. I made fun of the notion that Lifeline is a broken legend, and noted that taken by himself, nor is Revenant. Try taking out your frustrations on someone else.

@MrCarri-X Their real issue is with Seer at high levels of play. Now, from my perspective as a mediocre pubs player, the Seer nerfs were pretty good, and made him far less annoying to play against in my lobbies. I don't watch high rank play, I find the pacing of the games dreadfully boring to watch, and I certainly don't play in them. It's quite possible that at that level, Seer is still in a state that could be described as broken. And that's leaving aside entirely the argument of whether such a legend belongs in the game at all.

@MrCarri-XI have to disagree that a better legend is picked more because he's stronger. The Bloodhound pick rate is miles away from Seer already. Seer is not as broken as people think he is but is definitely a better pick than BH right now. I think it boils down to "fun factor" of a legend and if a legend can survive alone without the need of teammates since most players play solo. An example would be Gibby. He's been meta for multiple ALGS and seasons now but still remains one of the least picked legends. Legends like Wraith and Octane are at the top because they're great solo legends. Yes Rev has been in the game since S4 but the huge Octane buff in S8 made a huge indirect buff to Rev's ult, hence Revtane.

@Cheese9ManYeah, mostly because BH scan requieres 0 skill and with seer you kinda have to aim where you want to scan, so even though seer is way better legend, bloodhound is much easier to use.
I wouldn't mind seeing an Octane nerf or a nerf that prevents pad/totem, maybe disable double jump on it, or disable him purely, but the solution is not nerfing revenants totem with a huge sound, or maybe less time like mr daniel who got fired thought.
- 5 years ago@MrCarri-X If you think ppl are complaining about revenant only now, i assume you are new to the game, before rev octane there was a rev wraith meta and every body was complaining till they made it so you could not take the portal back instantly, instead you had to wait 5 seconds. Revenant is the same as Wattson, they are trash to solo Q with but top tier if you got a 3stack team especially end zones and high ranked games.
