Make All Legends Free
The game has reached a point where there are many legends to be unlocked, which I think does more bad than good to the game. Why locked legends are bad for the game (from a new player's perspective)...

@ArchAngeL-PCX Overwatch costed what? 50€ when It launched. If it had locked roster seeing how unbalanced the game was back then no way it could have survived to this day... Tbh I don't even know how it still is "alive".
Apex is F2P like lol, does lol have locked roster? Yes, but they rotate their characters every now and then to give people some time to try out new champs.
Apex could try out something similar. At least they could do something about the freaking legend tokens since having 500'000 Legend tokens that you have no way to use is stupid as *****.
Also 1 of the reason why the characters aren't free is so that players have some sort of goal, and that goal is to grind for those champions.
@KarvaRausku That's not a great goal, because locked legends aren't more powerful, higher tier or in any other way above the free ones. Besides, players will need to spend a lot of hours learning mastering them after unlocking anyway. It's much better to try and learn new legends in the beginner lobbies, instead of doing this while facing or having to keep up with skilled players.
My 2nd account is level 220, I still have 1 more legend to unlock. I've reserved 12K token for S9 legend.
The grind is real, but I'm ok with that because it take time to "get used to" new unlock legend, probably 20 levels so it works out for me.
Unlock legend is possible revenue for Respawn so I don't think they willing to let that go.
I agree we should allow to use any legend in training ground so they can try out the next legend to unlock.
I wanted wattson so bad when I was starting that I payed real money to unlock her. I didn't know that unlocking characters would be that easy.
- @asukojo Care to share how many hours you have on that account?
As for the revenue, people would most certainly redirect that investment in other things. I think that, if someone new is reluctant to buy a 10$ battle pass, he would definitely be turned off by having to spend another 40$ just to be able to benefit from the daily and weekly challenges that require locked legends. Also, legend specific editions have much more appealing skins than the champion edition, I think a lot of people would prefer to buy those.Said this a few times over the past few years, however they could just make ALL legends playable in the firing range.
Basically acts as a free trial and doesn't impact their current system at all.
- @DoYaSeeMe Not anymore powerful than the regular ones?
