Legend switch: Revenant

I had long slept on Rev after not really getting on with him initially.

I think he's a pretty cool character, brilliant voice over and amazing skins. Tho, I feel this whole aesthetic is a bit corny and would have appealed to me more when I was 12. 

i think he could have far better enimations for emotes and finishers tho.

Anyway...

I'd been recently playing with Loba and Valk, tho was previously killing it with Ballistic and my original main was Bloodhound.

Anyway, I been playing Wildcard and had a random feeling for "I want a sneaky character" and I know Rev has his crouch walk passive. I'd seen people use his jump and Ult in game but hadn't been impressed (I typically win against Ulted Revs.

Anyway, I figured, sneak crouch, wall climb, a jump, and a extra defense could work with my playstyle.

The result...

Been doing greaaat with him. In my first two games I had about 14 kills and narrowly missed the 4k badge by about 65 dmg.

I persevered and got the 4k badge either same or next days. (The only other legend I earned it with besides Ballistic).

I also missed out on the 20bomb by 2 kills--- I should have easily got them too but I left a Valk flying away on 1 shot, and narrowly got defeated by a Lifelike I left on 1 shot.

There's been a few poor games as expected since the switch, but I feel more confident in getting good results with Revenant. 

For some reason I get high damage with him. I now need to adjust to focus on getting the kills through the door. Had almost unlocked the 20bomb and 4k together which would have been great!

I've switched him into my wishlist and removed Ash. I'm sure I've seen so many good skins for him pass me by because I never used him, tho I've got one really good one likely from a battle pass or event. 

I find his tactical jump as a brilliant tool for entering a fight, jumping in to finish off a distant shield break or knock, and also as an escape tool, surprisingly finding it serve me a little better than Lobas bracelet and Valks jets in many scenarios. Tho I miss both.

Can see myself rolling as the evil deathbot assassin killing machine for a while.

End.
