Okay, so everyone knows Crypto is one of the least used Legends because he’s such a sitting duck it feels like a 2v3 unless your team is amazing and is able to 2v3 with assistance of Vision.. which never happens unless you have premade squad... SO: Crypto gets increased control over drone, similarly to Mirage with his decoy. Maybe something like, you activate your Drone and you get a UI (similarly to Moira Heal/DMG Orb for players who’ve played Overwatch), and you get the option to left click for normal drone control, or right click to send the drone in a straight line until it reaches (1 or 2?) meters and it stops before colliding with something, as well as having a remote option to stop it. This would allow for Crypto to push with the team and set up a camera at one point of escape, trap entrances for his EMP quickly, and generally allow for more movement with team in whatever scenario without being too strong, more of QOL. His drone would move predictably in a straight line making it more vulnerable than it was controlled, so you’re risking having it destroyed so that you’re still able to go in with your team. Also, he should have some sort of ability to highlight an enemy outside his Neurolink range by tracking a small circle or something displayed on an enemy for 3-5 seconds, and it highlights the enemy for 4-6 seconds similarly to Bloodhound’s Sonar Pulse duration. This could be great for tracking someone healing say in a 1v1 situation where all teammates but you and said enemy are downed and you need to know where they are before going in, but with the duration, as well as the needing to track them with reticle before getting the 4-6 seconds of vision, you’re sacrificing time for knowledge of their position, hopefully to clutch for your team.
