State Of Defensive Legends

With Wattsons' abilities being showcased, the state of defensive characters is just very odd. Neither Gibraltar nor Caustic have abilities that can contribute to their team the way Wattsons' does-no...

No just making a point for defensive legends . Wattson is interesting and will shake the game up for the better . But with what looks like a slower set up compared to gib and caustic . I dont see her straight up out shining gib ... as stated caustic screws up his team as well at the enemy making him the weakest pick .

I wouldn't say she necessarily has slower setup than Caustic. Yes, throwing down the trap is basically instant. But with the time it takes to grow AND the small delay it takes before someone can activate the trap I'd say they look the same.
However the deciding factor is how long does W's lightning poles last compared to traps.

  I'm saying slower due to the fact that caustic just had to throw the trap (yes it has a delay) compared to wattsons having to set up point A and point B for the fence to activate (I'd imagine it has a delay as well) . Meaning caustic can throw trap out and just keep shooting where as wattson would have to look at right side of door set post 1 then look at left side of door set post 2 for it to activate (taking longer for her to start shooting again) . Wattson is ganna be strong when she has time to set up all her fences at a given location . But when it comes to stumbling onto another team ... she ganna be the weaker defender . She also has no offense skill her as ult is also strictly defensive (gib and caustic can use their ults to attack or flush out enemies )
