buff octane, bloodhound, watson, and crypto.
These legends are way to under used you need to buff these legends to the point where they rival lifelines, pathfinder and wraiths over powered mechanics.

@DarthValtrex Octane could use a buff, although i do not know in which way they could buff him? Make the jump pad explode? :D
@TrancyGoose I think the issue with legends like Octane is that they don’t offer a huge amount to the team. I feel like that’s the issue with a lot of legends like Mirage.
High ground can shift a fight into your favor.
Fortification can shift a fight into your favor.
Team movement can shift a fight into your favor.
The jump pad can be useful but it’s just not the same as paths ziplines or wraiths portals.

@DarthValtrex and yet I main Octane, and preferred him over any other legend. There is something about this legend
- @TrancyGoose Oh I love octane. He’s fun to play especially for more aggressive players that like to push.
@DarthValtrexHad this gameplay recently, Octane. Thought I'd share. 🙂 He can be nasty.
- @DarthValtrex I like to use him because he provides the team with speed to enter a battlefield in a nonlinear direction unlike Path.
When I see people taking his zipline, all I have to do is shoot in a straight line or up and down if they jump and go back on.
With Octanes pad, enemies have a harder time aiming at me or my team and another use for the pad that is great is it's silence in deploying thus allowing you to get the jump on a team who has the high ground.
@TrancyGoose I think being able to utilize the jump pad more would be a great buff. For instance, allow it to stick to anything even walls, if you run and jump on it, you get a higher boost (more than what you get when you hold the jump button down), making a stim before jumping on a pad actually launch you farther vs the same distance.
He's a basic legend and that means he has a lot of potential to be great.I don't understand why people keep asking "buff this, buff that". Anything, if not everything in every game has it's pros/c()ns. They should leave everything as is and players have to adapt. That's what's "gaming" is. Not just making things easier or more convenient for people who feel they need it. Prefer and need are two different things. I agree with and prefer some of the suggestions, but it seriously takes the enjoyment out of the "somewhat" difficult situations.

- @jumanjaydazed And I’m some place between a pro and a con..
- @iBlockHead I like the idea of putting jump pads on walls and stuff. That could be a lot of fun.
I main Octane because he's simple. I don't have to think to much about his abilities and when is the perfect time to use them. I just run in and start blastin'. They could make him faster with the stim if they wanted, I wont complain. Make the jump pad boost even further. I wont complain. He is a blast to play as, but by all means, make him even more fun!
