Who is the worst legend...
and why is it Crypto? There I said it. I've tried several times to get into him but I just can't. Would love to hear from some Crypto mains out there as to why they play him and how they get him...

@Eshshshss You mentioned before you only started playing in the spring right? You should have seen old wraiths. hahaha
@hayhor I have seen videos of pros playing her and understand where the hype comes from - harder to hit, voiceline when someone is aiming at you, faster queue, teleport usage in the end zones to start the push - good old combo of her, gibi and blood.
Yet now most of those benefits are nerfed and in my opinion, also player base has adjusted and learned how to counter those moves, thus now Wraith, in my opinion, is mostly just Octain like or dead in the water with her queue and portaling.
But yeah I have been here only 8 months so maybe don't know all the tricks and tips of her potential. Yet my experience with players who play her is exactly as described before - very frustrating and usesless for the team most of the time.

- @Eshshshss Smaller hitbox and instant q made wraith the easiest less skillful legend to play before. That's why she was picked 30% of the time while the next legend was like 10%. Octane is now that legend, tho his pick rate isn't as out of control. People will always gravitate to the easiest legend to play. I enjoy playing octane sometimes. Now I'm running valk tho. Why? Because she is easy to play.
- @hayhor Amen, Respawn could just rename that rank from pickrate to lazyrate :P and that actually would not be funny.
I mean Gibby is a clear example. I could not and did not want to play him 4 splits into my Apex experience because as said before I always died in my bubble fighting multiple enemies.
As I did not like others playing him as they more often than not used the bubble to heal themselves or pick me up while knocked instead of putting out the bubble in a timely fashion to avoid damage in the first place.
And the art of placing bubble is worth of a separate topic.
Yet you turn to more skilled players and Gibby still is a must-have. Just shows the difference in mindset, game approach, values, skill in the community.
