    As a devote Watty, nice to see a pro ranking Wattson so highly. Most Tier List vids rank her low. With a good team she can guarantee a win late game.... with a noob team her abilities are ignored.... cos the prevailing tactic of noobs is to run around like headless chickens chasing anything that moves. Then they spam revive button like your there to wet nurse them. Wattson is a team player. Alone she is a bit of a pudding.

    Vantage really only needs a few tweaks to make her stronger, most notably with her ultimate. The laser being visible to enemies is one of the largest drawbacks to her kit, second only to her hitbox size for a non-fortified character. The scan the sniper applies to a hit enemy also does not go through walls, though it is visible if the target retreats into smoke. Take away the laser and let the scan go through cover, all the sudden her ultimate is in a really good place.

    • @SterlingArthur
      @SterlingArthur 23 дня назад +2

      They'd also have to delete the red laser on Rampart's ult to be fair, but it's not like it would matter since her ult is insanely loud and recognizable.

      Remove 1 of the tactical upgrade passives, and add in a choice to make her passive mark last longer, and visible through solid objects.
      I'd also buff her tactical, to allow her to grab onto downed teammates, and use her tactical to get them out of danger. Essentially holding onto them, as she activates her tactical jump.

    As a Maggie main, all of those reasons are so true. I’ve tried to figure it out but it’s a bit hard to test the consistency of the drill because the training ground is made a lot “better” then the older maps. If they made the drill more consistent she would be so much better. Also I find the scans very useful. It’s good at giving you intel on the immediate actions of the player you just shot. A lot of the times I can shoot someone and if they are on height I can tell if they have dropped or where they have gone. It makes life easier when gathering info on the players.

I'm a Wattson main who's played alot of both Caustic and Catalyst in ranked and pubs, and I can't tell you how many times I threw my controller (shoutout controller Wattson mains btw) because some shitter Fuse emptied his inventory of nades on my spot. It's sounds like a niche scenario but its more common than you think. Sure Cat and Caustic can be really good for aggressive plays, but like you stated in the video "it's about how good a legend is at their worst, than at their best" and Wattsons worst scenario isn't as bad as Caustic and Catalyst's. When a Wattson gets caught out in the open, its much less devastating than if you were Caustic due to her smaller hitbox. Plus Wattson got shadow buffed with her passive shield regen speed being doubled so that's a neat convenience. It's such a shame so many people overlook her potential because she has a high skill ceiling and high skill requirement. It's easy to mistake a high skill character with just a straight up terrible character when you don't know how to use them.

      It really all depends on meta. Before Bang, and Fuse were meta, Watson was kind of crap, but now that Fuse is being played by everyone, and every game and team almost gaureteneed you'll see multiples of them, make Wattson jump up to S tier.
      It's the same thing for Newcastle. Right now all the hyper aggressive, getting 3rd, into the 4th, into the 5th partied situations, makes Newcastle absolutely S tier.
      Newcastle + Wattson + Lifeline, unless you're absolute trash you're going to win that game with ease. I call it the Immortal Dynamic Trio, because no matter who you knock, it doesn't matter, you aren't getting an advantage in that team fight, and they'll quickly and easily get their teammate back, while punishing you for trying to close the gap.

    About time someone said Wattson is better than Caustic and Catalyst. Everyone meat rides those two because their abilities sound better on paper, even though their worst case scenarios are far more common, worse, and/or devastating than Wattsons. (Catalyst's getting naded and/or ability spammed, Caustic's getting naded, caught out in the open, and/or ability spammed, and Wattson's is either getting emp pushed or caught out in the open, but its less devastating than Caustic because her small hitbox.) There are way more Fuses and Horizons than Cryptos, which really hurts Caustics and Catalysts ability to hold a spot compared to Wattson. If you have a versatile aggressive legend paired along with Wattson, like Bang, you really don't need the aggressive tools that Caustic and Catalyst can offer as much. Don't get me wrong, a Cat wall and Caustic ult can completely change the outcome of the game and Catalyst and Caustic are by no means bad legends. They are just far less consistent than Wattson because they have higher strengths, but devastating and hard weaknesses that Wattson doesn't share.

    • @SterlingArthur
      @SterlingArthur 23 дня назад

      What's crazy about Wattson is that her abilities can STACK. Her passive can boost up her ult faster with ult accels, her ult can give her more tac fences, and she literally has 2 abilities built in to give her free shields. Not to mention Caustics' and Catalysts' traps are absolutely useless if other enemies are using that same legend as you are. They can literally run in your trapped building and not get affected or hurt by anything, which is another downside that Wattson thankfully does not share.

  • @comfeycanto8427
    @comfeycanto8427 20 дней назад +1

    Hey friend,
    thanks for sharing your thoughts! I want to share some of my thoughts on legends, that I feel comfortable with. I play Plat/Dia most season long, so thats the average skill-level I come from in my expertise.
    Ash F -> D: I agree with you that Ash is rather underwhelming. However, I think there is a few things that you have not noted that are of relevance. First, her passive also includes showing dead players on the map. This grants you a LOT of information in every ranked game you will ever play with her. As Ash, you know a lot about where teams are and who is maybe a little lost in their rotation. Information is King in Ranked and Ash provides info consistently.
    The snare is underwhelming, but it is not half as bad as I think you take it for. Snare - especially Greedy-Snare - is very versitle. You can use to to deny certain areas, create 3v2s or just spam damage in poke-offs. Esp greedy snare can anihilate teams relying on EVAV or ziplines to escape. In a game where seconds matter, just keeping one opponent from helping his mate for 2-3 seconds (more if he heals) makes a difference.
    The reason why I play Ash as a secondary despite her beeing D-Tier imo is, that she works so damn well with so many other legends, but especially my main Crypto. EMP->Portal is just such a sweet push. But also Knuckle-Cluster knocks, Vantage knocks and just all these hard to capitalize on situations can be punished so well with Ash. Ofc you never warp into the POV of the opponents - you take the roof, or another room.
    Vantage F is fine: Vantage is so fucking funny to play as. You can hit the beacons, fuck arround with you Sniper and just have a good time. But all you say is true: The fuck is that hitbox and the ULT is comparatively (!) weak. I like her passive ability to see shields and teammembers and her Tactical is good. Thats it, lol. She's good at takinf angles but if you get punished for getting in on opponents, this ist just allways a liability.
    What I think is worth noting however, is that enemies taking cover after beeing hit is actually a huge plus. Vantage-Ult forces more people into vover than your average Marksman would. Blue players after 1 and purple players after 2 hits are basically out of commission and wont want to help their teammates. Vantage is also very usefull in fending of 3rd parties. Usually you want to loot last after a fight and just take height (wich is easy with Echo) and scare any potential third party away, which is easy with her Ult. So she has things going for her that you didnt mention, but yeah, F is fine imo. If she's D, that's only because she can hit both beacons.
    Crypto D is fine: I love your take on Crypi! Really tells me that you know him in and out. Crypto is imo pretty overrated in many lists, because people really want his kit to be better than it actually is and noone plays him to know that it's... mid? The info on drone whiel fighting is amazing, but bloodhound scans arent worse and way more consistent. Cryptos EMP is nice and stong if paired with mobility, as you said, but it's not like its SO GOOD you have to play it. The best part of Cryptos kit is arguably sitting in a corner and having the drone up high to just survey the whole area, counting teams, players, even weapons and legends. What's fun about Crypto is how you can remote activate the beacons, which can surprise enemies. You can insta-revive even on mobi's, which comes in clutch especially in late games. You can do all these little things with the drone to distract people.
    I love Crypto, he's my main, but yeah, if you get his dron down, if you have a tough rotation ahead (that you cant avoid even with his massive information surplus) or if you just stuck in a shitty fight, Crypto does little to you.

  • @fuse-cw4nb

    Something I would like to mention about fuse is that his knuckle cluster is a lot more versatile than you think and even though the damage is not the best it slows and slightly scares enemy’s so if you put it in a spot such as a open doorway nobody will walk through that so it acts like a border, and it can break doors which is very useful if you are pushing someone in a building, you can break the door than spam nades inside

    @andrewcavallo1877 12 дней назад

    I main Crypto, and this probably isn’t meta but I find my favorite comp to play with is actually Fuse and Revenant, mostly because Fuse’s ultimate pairs really well with EMP, it forces them to stay still while I land my ultimate on them, and then Revenant can dash in and pick off players while they are helpless. Knuckle cluster does really well to keep enemies in cover if I need to use my ultimate really close to the enemy, so I don’t get picked off from being rushed by the enemy. And Revenant’s ultimate is just highly preoccupying for the enemy, so it gives me time to rush in after using my ultimate. There’s probably better comps to be had, but this is just the one I enjoy most

    As someone who has played mirage a lot recently, he does work best to confuse the enemy in tight areas. Especially with his upgrades he has great spam-ability to keep it going. Sure it isnt as measurable as movement or damage perks but it has its defensive and offensive use, just dont be in the complete open. His tactical also has the added bonus of scouting where shots are coming from mid battle which is good for sniping. And yes his invisibility can be obvious in reviving, its still added cover though. Just dont try stupid clutches with it.
    Hes well rounded but not great and can help keep a constant defense for your team mates with little down time.
    Though I get that people would want characters that have more measurable abilities than just "you got bamboozled", even if it is viable if used properly.
