Why is Wraith still #1?
Simple: Combine her small stature with her anime-tier animation and you have yourself a target that's much more difficult to hit by comparison to any other legend. You could take away Wraiths kit,...

Guess i'm the only one that doesn't find any trouble in shooting Wraith lol. Of course it's a smaller hitbox and harder to hit, but you know, if you have good aim you can hit her. Honestly i don't get why people complain so much, you can't hit her? Improve your aim then, and you'll see that you can kill her easily. People always want things to be easy, how do you think you can get better if every thing that is difficult is taken out of the game?
In higher ranks she's mostly taken because she's useful to the team, not because of her size.
@Cro_Pittt I have to disagree. She has the same hitbox as Lifeline and Wattson, but her animations are questionable. Like every legend runs upright, why does she run crouched? I have no trouble shooting a Wraith, but it's not about aim, which you are trying to make it out to be. It's about balance. Yes, she is small but she also has a low profile on her, which kinda balances it out. But animations need a change. And even admitted by the lead game designer.
Not everything is complaining. The OP just made a really good point from a balance perspective. I guess the devs should have told us to 'Git gud' instead of adding Low Profile.Right?

@BaldWraithSimplow profile does change nothing.5% is bs and does not make up for it at all tbh. i will hit all hitboxes below with the number of pixels:
Wraith: 95,997 Low profile
Bangalore: 105,739
Pathfinder: 107,877 Low profile
LL: 110,017 Low profile
Wattson: 110,563 Low profile
Crypto: 111,868
Octane: 119,972
BH: 123,459
Mirage: 141,089
Revenant: 146,946
Caustic: 150,224
Gibby: 203,396
As you can see there are alot of unbalances in general arround this, most notable is the fact that banga doesnt have low profile while beeing the second smallest legend, not to mention her strong passive
Second of all is Rev having the 3rd highest hitbox cuz he stands so horrible that even while in raw seize he is just a little bit bigger than Pathfinder, still the difference is 40k pixels wich is massive..
I feel the difference bigtime when i hop from wraith to rev its not even funny how much more i get hit while playing rev...
He needs his hitbox fixed or needs fortified buff@matzesingtexactly. the size disparity between small characters such as wraith vs characters like gibby is disgusting.
Even if you increased wraiths size x2 she still wouldn't be the size of gibby.
Yet they have the same HP and armor values.
Even accounting for low profile and fortified, the differences in TTK is negligible.
The champs are unbalanced for this reason specfically.- @matzesingt As I can see, you are quoting hitbox info from a YouTuber which isn't accurate as said by the YouTuber himself. Now I obtained the hitbox information from the lead game designer's twitter, which has more chances of being accurate cuz you know, he is the lead game designer.
The YouTuber did the pixel count on a 2D image, while the hitbox is actually 3D. So we can safely say it's not a good source to base our discussion upon. Bangalore has the same hitbox rig as Bloodhound.
- @BaldWraithSimp and what about her strafing left and right ??
i can not believe how no one is talking about it until now , her strafe animation is not like any other legends and it's looks faster not from the player perspective but from the enemy prevaricate specially with any skin that have a scarf .
it's very distracting and make her harder to hit , also when she crouch almost her strafe is fast- @maximas1986 Haven't compared the strafing that much, but the animation does look a lil weird to me. I don't know why, but I find her strafe shooting very funny lol. Devs have said they have thought about changing animation, but that will take away a part of her 'Weeb' personality.
Someone above said 'You guys can forget about devs changing her animation'. Well, I can assume that the person hasn't ever interacted with dev, that's why the dismissive remark.
