Lobas is dodo butter

She seriously needs some adjustment. In terms of what i at the very least she needs to be able to cancel her warp but i can see how that can be a little OP but at the same time not really seeing how theres an audio queue telling you if shes jumped or not. In terms of her ultimate is needs more ranger or just more item pickup.

    I hear what you are saying...

    1. I'm not sure I believe the slow part, because watch someone trying to deploy a pathfinder Zipline, how slow that is to launch it. I've been able to deploy and jump faster.

    2. Isn't Paths zip cool down longer?

    3. Yes Audio has always been an issue, but not sure where that comes in for her teleporting?

    If you think her Ult is the only good thing, I'm sorry to say, you haven't tried playing her long enough, because I've been playing her daily since Season 5, and because of her teleport, I can out run anyone on the map, think about that for a sec, you and another legend are standing side by side, who's going to beat her, Pathfinder maybe, from what I recall, his grapple isn't that far, only the zipline, and unless someone playing Path has a clear shot at where to land the zip, it does take most people a second or two to place it.

    You have to be more tactical with her is all, and if you are, she can jump fast to high ground and control the area, because of this, not to mention get out of situations...

    I know people can see the teleport trail, but no one has ever killed me because of it, you just have to stay aware of the map and people before throwing it.

    Let's not forget that you can see Loot others can't, this is amazing. I always easily find that LVL3 & LVL4 loot... LOL You can also steal that nice LVL4 Shield out of the vault now, Black Market, etc... Loba is a great Legend, and let's be honest, it's all nothing but Personal Preferences, and I personally prefer Loba...

    On the teleporting side;


    ---> Look Before You Leap.... LOL 😉

  • @xpl0its Grapple goes further and higher than teleport(if you know how to grapple that is) plus there is no delay animation. It doesn't make sense comparing path's ult to Loba's tactical.

    Agree with the rest of your points tho. Only problem I have with her is slow after throwing the bracelet(you can't sprint or use weapons) and then 2-sec delay after teleporting. I had some good clutches with her but I stopped playing Loba after a while(have 300 kills with her).

    Sure you might think that comparing a Talent vs Ult no comparison, but many places on the maps, you can't just easily use Paths Ult, press the keys, and in a split second always launch it, you still have to pick the spot for it to land on, and some people are faster then others at this, but I've watched the majority of players taking a second or two to place it, that's normal.

    There is not the same level of difficulty in placing Loba's teleport, just aim and throw, granted, someone might not get it to the exact spot, but it goes faster,then trying to place a zip on a spot, I'm not saying all spots on the map, but there are many places it does take a second or two to get to land, so I disagree, with all due respect to you, because the both are about Moving Great Distances, this is what both of these abilities do...

    I sprint and have weapons right after I teleport, no problems here...

    I don't see any 2 sec delay after teleporting, please explain?

  • @xpl0its She puts on her bracelet after teleporting and then puts on her makeup, ties her hair, pouts. Just kidding lol.
    She just puts on her bracelet, it's not exactly 2 sec tho(I dunno, have never measured).

    She can't sprint or take out her weapons after throwing the bracelet(before teleporting when it's in the air).

    The reason I said not to compare her tact to zipline cuz why not compare path's tact to Loba's tact? Grapple is all about speed and momentum plus repositioning while Loba's tact is more of a repositioning tool(it does help in covering more distance but not as much as grapple) and her teleport lacks in vertical distance compared to grapple.

    Ok the bracelet back on, this has not effected me in a bad way yet.

    Ok, I get the part when throwing, how this effects her.

    I see Lobas' as speed too, after all she can reach a point faster then the other legends, with exception to Path.

    I've never compared her Vert Distance to Paths.

    Hey, no Legend is perfect, but I've played all of them since Season 1, so I'm really enjoying Loba.

    Each to their own... 🙂
