I can’t hit anyone with Seer tactical after nerf

I really can’t! It’s like 99% of they time they run away unless they stuck between two teams. Slower passive also made it worse, it’s impossible to detect anyone with passive and hit them on time, th...

In my honest opinion Seer is the second worst idea to come out of Respawn Entertainment, The smart pistol is the first from Titanfall, 3rd is bots. Understand I thought Caustic was an awful idea, Seer is just plain garbage.

Like honestly, the passive and tactical don't promote anything competitive and/ or casual in nature, It directly promotes having too much knowledge with little effort. Being able to just spin around while aiming down sight to gain the knowledge of everyone around you is not skill, it's simply a bad idea. Matter of fact is why most cheaters choose to use ESP (Extrasensory perception) cheats as they don't directly have the skill themselves.

With what little Apex Legends has of competitive play now (with Valorant just taking most hardcore players) It's good Seer got the nerf in my eyes. The second issue in Apex Legends is aim assist devices need separate lobbies.

@Popa2caps Well you are saying Seer and Caustic were not good for the game, because they are not skill based and they can win by abilities so it’s good that Seer nerfed. I’m saying right or wrong this was his kit, all he had, I can clearly feel nerf hit him hard and it makes him lose his use for the team as a scanning/detecting character. They shouldn’t release a legend and then turn him into a dummy.

@Popa2caps The same argument could be made about bloodhound, or really any other legend in the game (other than perhaps Crypto and this version of Wattson).

"Wraith is so bad at escaping that she needs to phase out to play, no skill involved..."
"Octane is so bad at avoiding damage that he has to have an auto-heal and get-out-of-jail free card at the same time, no skill."
"Bangalore can run faster when attacked and launch smoke to hide her team? Lame! No skill!"
"Lifeline doesn't even have to stay there to rez?! Talk about lazy?! No skill or planning!"

In other words, people tend to say "no skill" whenever there's a legend that they don't like personally or whenever it's used in a way they don't approve of for "pro" gaming.

My issue with seer is only that they had to redo an idea they already did. We didn't need bloodhound 2.0. We needed something different. But Bloodhound 2.0 is what we got.
