Opinions on Bloodhound buff?

After the update playing Bloodhound got fun again, and had quite some luck with him on ranked as well, but I'm wondering if the buff is abit too much.

I used to play Crypto on ranked before this, but he feels underwhelming now. Seems like there's no reason to pick him over Bloodhound now, with the latter being much more straightforward and easy to use, and doesn't need to micromanage a drone on top of that. 

Crypto wasn't a popular pick to begin with (tbf neither was Bloodhound) but he's completely overshadowed now imo.

  • As a bloodhound main, I think he is now pretty strong but I love the change.
    It's what his ability should have been from the start, he's now strong but still in a good place.

    Crypto is alright, he isn't that strong if you compare them now with the others.
    A change that crypto needs is that his drone can scan enemies when he isn't using it (recalled mode)

    It's would be nice that the devs could do more with crypto.

  • @BillyCrash100 I played bloodhound a lot before the buff, didn’t realise he wasn’t very popular lol . Thought he was fine without the buff tbh, not complaining that he got one but personally I would have picked other legends to buff over him.. *cough* mirage *cough*..
  • @BillyCrash100 the scan range?

    To be able to clear out 2 whole buildings or 1 giant one in an instant?

    Yea he's pretty viable now

    End circle is RIP to anyone infront of him as he can just scan and mark us all.

    But best to keep in mind that enemies can pinpoint where the scan is coming from most of the time.

    Still awesome.
