Nerf Pathinder
When will we see major nerfs for Pathinder? Over 15% pickrate (at high ranks it is between 20 and 25%!!!)... and still no nerfs? Is this a joke? His movement is terrible for other characters who don't have it.

Pathfinder has always had a high pick rate. Maybe not always in pro leagues, but in general play he's always been a top 5 or 6 legend.
The only buffs he's ever had to my knowledge are a slightly shorter grapple cool down and a longer range for his ultimate. So are you suggesting an even longer cool down on the grapple? Not sure what other movement he has that others don't. Pathfinder was nerfed and re-buffed over the years.
So he experienced a big nerf in May 2020 (S5) when his grapple-cooldown was increased from 15s to 35s.
In October 2020 his grapple-mechanics got a rework, linking the cooldown of his tactical to his travel-distance - so the shortest possible cooldown was 10s, the normal cooldown still was 35s.
[...]
With implementation of the new perks, Pathfinder is now able to refresh his tactical after a knockdown, which makes him truely op.
@reconzeroAt higher levels his energized zip is what has made him meta. All 3 players can zip anywhere they want and take very little damage. If they increase the damage the team can take he will fall off a bit.
He's always been fun and will remain fun for solo players. As you know hitting grapples are fun!
