for me he isnt exactly the strongest character, would give him 1 or 2 minor buffs(giving him the ability to not be hurt by his own tactical so he can be more aggressive with it for example) however playing fuse for me is a tonne of fun, sticking an enemy with his tactical feels very rewarding and i am just enjoying using him a lot

He's been my main since S8 and I've 675 kills with him. It took a while to learn how to play him.I basically won a game solo with him yesterday. Round 5 with the only other squad hiding in a gas-trap filled bike shed on Olympus. It took one Knuckle Cluster to blow the bloody doors off then the shed was soon full of nades. The enemies came out into a hail of bullets ... game over.His ult is only good for two things - dropping it on a third party fight or creating a barrier so you can res/heal yourself and your team. It's really dumb that TMs are undamaged by the ult, but Fuse is.His nade ability is very good for getting camped teams out of settled positions. The final ring yesterday was at Estates in one game and I arc-starred an enemy squad off their building and onto the ground.Nades are good sent quickly in pairs as they deploy via Fuse much quicker and directly. Pop one where an enemy is and one where you think they'll run to and you're in business.The KC is good at getting people out from behind small rocks and bins. It's also good in early fights when enemies haven't yet shielded up. Okay, so the max damage is 35 but that can be a massive advantage in an early 1v1 scuffle. I've survived countless 1v1s unarmed v armed enemies early game that I wouldn't have done with Rev. I had a fun fight with another Fuse yday when he KCd me and then I KCd him. I won that one with a couple of punches.The bad stuff? Sometimes the KC doesn't go where you want it to go. I've knocked myself with the KC at least three times.In terms of ranking I'd put him above Rev but below all the usual suspects like Wraith, Bang, Gibby etc.

@Koochi-Q that is fair enough, honestly i dont think it would make a huge difference i mean early on sure it would be helpful but later on it doesnt do enough damage to really change much, could help in those very close fights but when you got purple or better armour you get hit by a fuse tactical and you can pretty much shrug it off, its really minimal damage at that point, if both people have not picked up armour and one is hit by a fuse tactical then that is a different storyon the rest of the replies its interesting to read people's thoughts on him, his ult is very hit or miss for me, my first ever kills with him was a team wipe where i took out 3 of the enemy team with my ult and i just had to shoot the last one, but other than that usually his ult doesnt really do that much, maybe i am just terrible with it but its very hit or miss for me(usually miss) but its charge time really isnt that bad(it charges pretty fast)i never really carried nades until i started using fuse, being able to stack 2 gives me justification to use them(i know all legends could have done that early on but i didnt use nades back then) proves very helpful when pushing a building and i do love challenging snipers with my nades, snipers dont expect a arc star to the face

@EdwardDLuffy honestly you are a better fuse than me, i am approaching 500 kills with him so far, i remember a room with a window and a lifeline reviving someone, 2 arc stars and my tacitcal put an end to her shenanigans :Pi love his ult for dropping onto third party fights, can create a lot of chaos and actually get you kills, especially if they are fighting close together(and obviously outdoors), i have even dropped it on down enemies just to confirm kills and stop enemies from reviving them.i very much agree with your point i remember an enemy squad was on a high pillar at artillery, 3 arc stars later and a tactical suddenly they were not on the high ground and running from me, that was a lot of fun(wanted to pursue them since they were very damaged but teammates were going the opposite way and i wasnt going to beat them in a 1 vs 3 despite how hurt they were) you sometimes get very lucky with KC(there is a video i posted in the video topic of me doing 156 damage with one use of his tactical) but usually it does like 20 or 30 damage which really isnt muchKC and sometimes nades with him does sometimes seem a bit weird, doesnt seem to go where you expected but maybe that is my fault, i would say your ranking is about right, i do think he is a bit underrated right now, he doesnt bring much to teams usually but he can block off area's with his ult, he is the best character for breaching buildings and getting enemies off the high ground

@Swarth2300 Yep, same here with the Ult - it is very hit and miss. Sometimes you pile it on a third party fight and it doesn't do a thing, sometimes you get 2-3 knocks. Some of the time it doesn't go where you want it to go.My fave was when I saw three enemies gathered around Loba's Ult. I landed it perfectly and followed it with the KC and three nades. I killed one and knocked the other two, 700 or so damage. I finished off one of those knocked as they were reviving and my TM got the other.The other downside is when I am not playing Fuse I still pick up all the grenades :D

overall what do you think of fuse?

@EdwardDLuffy his ult is very inconsistent but i cant tell if that is the ult's fault or mine tbh, i feel that about picking up nades after forgetting i am not playing fuse

@Koochi-Q honestly that is a very good point, i mean it really depends on when it is in the match, sometimes the tactical doesnt really do enough damage late game for people to bother moving away from it(depends on a lot of different circumstances though), that is a good plan to use it as a tracker its never something i thought about(i have used his tactical as a distraction to lead a team in another direction) also that is a good point about his ult, i still think maybe it needs to do slightly more damage to be better at cc, a lot of the time just running through the fire is better than standing in the ring waiting for the fire to go

honestly a lot of good tips i can use to make better use out of fuse so thank you for that

Fuse is a fun but lackluster character. It would be nice if the updates and additions to the game actually changed the meta to keep things fresh and interesting.

Season 8 in a nutshell:
-Fuse is not meta changing.
-30/30 is not meta changing.
-KC map updates fell short of expectations.

He looks fun from trailer but after playing him few times, he's not my type. I like to play in building, his ultimate is useless inside building. He doesn't have escape ability.
I craft his finisher and barely using it.

@Swarth2300 You’re welcome, hope you can make better use of him now. But if you ask me, a legend should fit you and not other way around.

I choose my legends cause I like their abilities cause they suit my playstyle.
BH I liked Eye of Allfather because of extra speed and heat vision, & tracking passive. I hardly ever used his tact xD.

Rev I liked cause randoms were random and I never trusted them so while they ran like headless chickens towards the enemy I crouch flanked them. I hardly ever used his ult or tact.

Horizon I just liked for the lift & no fall slowness. Ult is bonus but only useable with a good team to throw nades or ults (go @hayhor!)

Caustic... I just liked his gas capabilities. Canisters too slow for my liking but other than that he was first character I liked all his abilities of. I like slowing ppl down.

Fuze... only the passive & tact. I always carried lots of arcs so a character doubling that? No brainer. His ult I hardly use unless I see good opportunities for it.

if you want to let the ult work cc, use it at your feet. if enemy’s in front of you, you’ll trap him instantly.
