WATTSON LOW PRFILE NERF??
Ok I get the pylon nerf and having 2-3 of those in one house is a little overpowered, but why would she get the low profile nerf? Her hitbox can't be much different then mirage and banaglore who both...
Still doesn't deserve a nerf at all. Especially the ability. That's what make every legend stand out and now taking away this? Is over. She's completely done for. And you say in good sqauds? Yeah that's because they TRAINED and LEARN to be good. This is now just the same thing as fortnite now. Trying to pamper to casual? I am not a professional myself but I main her and it took a lot of learning for sure.
@Peacinlol so you r telling me it is normal to place multiple Interceptor Pylons instantly IN THE SAME HOUSE?
Not about the Pros, even for the casual, there is no way to attack the house with Watson inside.
- Full of traps, you cant enter, you cant throw grenade, you can't see anything, how to attack unless the ppl inside are completely potatos
- The longer she stay in 1 place, the more traps she put. Also, you run into 3rd party risk if the fight drag too long. You got 3rd party, and the Watson squad in the house is still safe.
Currently she's the only legend that can place 2 ultimate instantly. Well, it's special. Should I show you another clip of ppl defend the house with white armor + P2020 and EVA ?
And lastly, can you explain to me why placing 1 Interceptor is not enough for you ?
@d3adc3II I'm not doubting you but I'd love to see that video. With no way to reliably blow doors besides grenades I can see how it would be tough to push a Wattson.
The thing with this whole "cant rush wattson with multiple ults running" stuff is you actually can. It's just time consuming.
Most buildings have a lot of windows. Her ult can be destroyed with gunfire. It isnt an ideal situation i agree, but when it comes to the last two teams you can just focus on breaking the interceptors before even attempting to push in.
The more boring alternative is to just play the waiting game.

Here is another clip, it's boring from start but it became much intense toward the ending. Strongly recommend you watch til the end
Wattson. Was designed from the ground up like this. Are you telling me we don't see this being a camper legend since her announcement? I have play it many times and even if I did camp. People good enough and that plans good enough CAN still win. And maybe 3 is excessive but AT LEAST she deserves two pylons. What's the point of her passive if she does not have the ability to place more than one?
I understand what you mean, but from my experience playing Wattson, there are a ton of counters to her ultimate and her fence, drop a thrmite outside a door and it will burn through the door and break the fence from there, take out the ultimate with a sniper. also Caustic Bags and Gibby Shield break the fences. A good wraith can phase into the building with no issue. The problem with low level players is they don't take the time to learn how to properly counter an ability. Most everyone in this game is all about the run and gun. And Characters like wattson and caustic add tactical awareness and preplanned lines of attack. Something pros are good at, but the general populous is not.
and 1 interceptor really doesn't attribute to the abilities of the character. Her Passive is designed to spam ults. Imagine if wraith portals only went one way. That is what it feels like to have your favorite characters ultimate nerfed much more aggressively then needed. I think the max should be 2, I understand how 3 or more can be a bit broken, but 1 pylon has almost no range, especially considering it doesn't go through walls and is cut by corners, which means you cant place it next to doors, because when the door opens it will cut off 90 degrees of ultimate view. There is a lot more to placing wattsons abilities then most people realize.
Personally...i don't care. I love playing wattson and will continue to do so haha.
I'm so happy she got a nerf and low profile. Keep up the good work Respawn!
