Low profile nerf is too much

Low profile legends now take way too much damage making them frustrating to play, I don't even know how to respond to this RIDONKULUS change. Buff weak legends (octane, mirage, crypto) instead of ba...

@JinnobiFact is, low profile legends die way too fast now, faster than any fat or regular sized legend, and it gets worse the higher you go up the ranks.

It doesn't feel fair at all.

@Abyssloli Here are two actual facts, as opposed to rhetoric: 
1) not even close to enough time has passed and feedback has been collected to state that LP legends die too fast compared to non-LP characters (let alone "way" too fast) 
2) Wraith and Pathfinder have a far, far too high pick rate

As for Lifeline, I think her hitbox size was still problematic, but her abilities didn't stack up comapred to Wraith and Pathfinder. Which is why they buffed Lifeline in the very same patch which nerfed Low Profile.

    @Jinnobi As people said before, making low profile legends die quicker is the worst way to lower their pick rate, buff weak legends instead.

    Been playing this game since launch and kinda know how it feels, the TTK difference is massive, no need to analyse tons of data to notice that.

    I think what most people are experiencing now is change, and not necessarily the nerf. 
    A while back, I used to play Wraith a lot more. Then she had her cooldown increased for her tactical. I felt like I couldn’t really play her anymore, so I stopped.

    I tried her out yesterday for the first time in a while, I did really well. 
    Basically, the nerf wasn’t actually that bad, it just felt different and it’s throwing people off. This could be it.

    The stronger legends don’t really need any more nerfs right now.

    I’m thinking people are just kind of overreacting over the nerf.
