What is going on with Legion players in 2v8?
I don't know if this just me or what but every time I make myself wait that 30 minute queue to play killer in 2v8 nearly every time I get partnered with a Legion either one of two things happens; they either have no idea how to use their power (attacking one person twice while in feral frenzy) OR they don't ever use it in the first place. I know there are most likely a lot of new players starting the game so at first I gave it a pass but at this point it is nearly EVERY Legion match. Has anyone else noticed this or is it just bad luck on my end?

I have seen that as well and think it has two reasons:
To be honest, I dont complain about it as a survivor. As a killer, I have to respect their decision / playtime, however I have to ask: if the second aspect is the reason they are not using the power, then why are they playing Legion in the first place?
TTons Of new people playing. I've seen it myself, in game and on twitch.
Yeah I get paired with a Legion just about every match. I tell my friend to try other killer but she's too obsessed with stabbing survivors.
Playing Legion in 2v8 is difficult for me because the massive swathes of pallets everywhere can make hitting survivors difficult because you're constantly playing the "will I get hit out of my power or not" game.
Mhh I played around 8 matches (I played more but mostly with my girlfriend and she actually uses her power xD) with randoms and I only saw two legions I think, but both did what you explained.
I also played him about 10 rounds, it's actually pretty easy to fake the palette for them to drop and then just vault over. Just remember that you should stand still for a moment until you see them after the vault, so that they don't vault back behind you.
But you're also right that the palettes are a litte bit annoying sometimes. Sometimes you just have 3 seconds left because you had to run crossmap and then you can't fake the palette 5 seconds, best thing to do then is just swinging through instantly or at a random moment while faking.
I agree! Saldy playing against Legion is the most unfun experience 2v8 has to offer. At least in my personal opinion.
Funnily enough, you say, that new players want to try out legion because of their power. Then again, the players we are talking about refuse to use their power. Something doesnt add up.
I love 2v8 for the chaos, but facing a Wesker/Legion combo 75% of the time makes it boring real fast. Even in regular 1v4 matches, Wesker pops up so often that it starts to feel annoying/boring. Honestly, I’d love an option to avoid certain killers, even if it meant slightly longer queue times. Or maybe Behaviour could add some kind of killer repeat prevention like they do with the maps/realms nowadays.
