Crypto

Just recently, playing a ranked game with some friends and down to the final three. Doing quite well, I found myself in a 2 vs 3 situation against a team that has lifeline. We had one down and the final being lifeline who had a gold bag. An enemy crypto used his Emp while the lifeline was using her ability to revive her teammate. Why did the revive not get canceled by the Crypto’s ultimate? It removes legend tech, but it didn’t work on the life line’s drone.

  • @KempZ_NoVacainE It probably should. But I don't think it's supposed to.

    In all honesty I really don't like LL. She is a nightmare to deal with. There needs to be a cool down the drone revive 1 every 15 seconds or so.

    It's her only good ability though. Everything else is just sort there and not really useful. I would much rather see them give her an ult that allows her quick heals for x amount of time the tactical can be the same and a drone revive have a cool down of 15 seconds or something.
  • Lifeline is super strong, I agree, but I think her ability finally gives her the recognition she deserved. It’s strong, but it can be countered with other legend abilities, well-places ordinance, and coordinated team pushes. Her ability is finally one strong enough to make other teams play around it. I think it should stand the way it is because she finally feels like a true medic.

    @KempZ_NoVacainE What is there to play around with when an LL revives a team mate exactly?

    The shield encourages suboptimal peeka-boo play that we commonly see with gibraltar's shield

    The revive itself is a free gold shield that can keep on reviving even when the rest of the squad is downed

    The only way to counter it is to spam nades
  • @Deliberus Grenades, Caustic Gas, Gibraltar Ultimate, Gibraltar Dome Push, it is 2 v 3 at that point because the revive takes 7 seconds, so you just full throttle push and team fire and you can come out on top. I’ve seen the revive stopped with smoke grenades from bangalore as well. Get creative so the dirty lifelines don’t beat you!
