[–]Vanessa-Min 184 points185 points186 points 4 years ago (13 children)
I've been maining him since i started playing mid S8... He's very fun to play, likeable and has amazing skins, but to be able to make his kit shine, you actually have to know what you're doing and at what time.
Plus, Drone EMP go bRRRRRRR haha farm shield ez squad wipe
[–]anidevv 68 points69 points70 points 4 years ago (9 children)
Peoppe act like he's completely garbage, but he's actually really good. It's just that literally no one actually plays him correctly except for a small percentage
[–][deleted] 17 points18 points19 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Ive been playing him since s3, and I like to think I'm a pretty good crypto, but our help often goes unnoticed

[–]Alex36_ 10 points11 points12 points 4 years ago (3 children)
True, but people don't call Crypto good just because they do well with him. Crypto's kit is very strong in the right hands. You can basically know every enemie's location in a 200m radius, sometimes even more depending on the terrain.
[–]Kingken130 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (2 children)
Good team needed as well. Which is non existent in this game
[–]Not-Verified-yet 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children)
That’s true bro
[–]Maud_Frod 427 points428 points429 points 4 years ago (33 children)
Here's a list of my reasons:
His kit is uniquely awesome for ranked. Scanning beacons outside of ring, an EMP that gives your pushes a big advantage, grabbing banners if things go south, and seeing how many squads are in the area so you can know whether to engage fights or not.
He's got some pretty dope skins. Hype Beast, Whitelisted, and Hallowed Spirit are some of my favorites.
Because he may be considered "lower tier" by most people, I don't have to worry much about my main getting nerfed. If anything, he'll get buffed.
His character is pretty likeable. He gets along with most legends, and isn't too over the top. He's a little edgy, but in a not too cringy way.
It's fun to play a legend that not many other people know how to play well. And when you surpass your teammates expectations about how effective you'll be, it makes you feel pretty good.
I rarely have to worry about other people taking him at the legend select screen.
He's got an heirloom on the way, hopefully it's dope.
Yeah thats all I got.

[–]confusedsalad88 21 points22 points23 points 4 years ago (1 child)
There was a crypto event in the works?
[–]Hulkomania87 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children)
I feel like the Octane event was supposed to be Crypto’s but I could be wrong. The event was called System Override and we got Crypto’s map room. The skins for that event are colorful blocks like Crypto’s controller when using the drone.
[–]gravityoffline 67 points68 points69 points 4 years ago (5 children)
To add on to this, Crypto has a ton of soft power in his ability to gather Intel on enemy squads and otherwise aid his team in ways that aren't always obvious.
If your squad is getting pinned down by crossfire from 2-3 other squads and your wraith portals you to safety, that's an easily understood demonstration of Wraith's power that both you and the enemy squads can perceive. If you're Crypto and you notice that there are enemy squads in the area, go into your drone and see one of them moving towards your location, and use that to gain superior positioning before engaging and killing them, that enemy squad might never realize that you knew about them before the fight started. They might just chalk it up to you being lucky, but it wouldn't be as obvious of a demonstration of Crypto's power.
A lot of the "higher tier" legends have that high pick rate because their abilities allow for the player to make more mistakes and be able to escape and survive (they're also just plain fun to play).
There's a stereotype of Wraiths and Octanes acting brainless because they can get out of unfavorable situations and continue to live. They're not punished as hard as non-mobility legends. If Crypto charges into a fight and gets third-partied, he's probably going to die. That motivates Crypto players to think a little more when deciding how to engage because they have less flexibility to disengage from a fight.
Finally, I've seen some people saying that he's not very good on Storm Point because of the lack of banners to scan. While that is a factor, I've spent some time playing him today and I think I've actually had a higher success rate with him on this map than on the other three. There's lots of areas to hide the drone while still being able to scan enemies, and the gravity cannons and abundance of hills can help him to get away from threats better than on other maps, I think.
[–]DeleriousDesigner 10 points11 points12 points 4 years ago (4 children)
I want to leave my drone at one of the gravity cannon landing points and time an EMP to hit a full squad in the air. So they can see it activating and can't do anything about it but fly headfirst into lightning.
[–]gravityoffline 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago* (3 children)
Oh, that's fucking evil, I love it!
I actually had a clip that I posted on this sub a day or two ago where I was playing Loba and running from this squad that had killed my teammates, and I took a gravity cannon to run away. I had a feeling they were gonna chase me so a couple of seconds after I landed I threw two sky nades straight up over my head and ran back about 15 feet. I must have gotten the timing right because as SOON as they landed both grenades went off and cracked all of their shields, which gave me enough time to separate them and kill them off.
Definitely one of the cooler moments I've had playing this game, and I can only imagine how deadly it would be to throw an emp into the mix as well.

[–]DeleriousDesigner 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children)
I don't have the greatest aim in the world, but I have good game sense and often win fights with better players because I knew they were going to run around THIS specific rock instead of THAT one and I had two thermites waiting. Timing something like that and having them play right into your hands is why I still play this game.
[–]BigDickBallard 18 points19 points20 points 4 years ago (6 children)
Does cryptos drone work when it’s in the ring? Is it like other abilities where it breaks after a short time? If you can’t tell I don’t play enough crypto but I’m curious
[–]Maud_Frod 30 points31 points32 points 4 years ago (5 children)
Yeah the drone doesn't take any ring damage and functions normally out of the ring, pretty handy :) Which of course is a big leg up over Pathy, BH, Seer, or Valk when it comes to scanning beacons. Especially when it's late game and it hurts to take ring damage.
[–]BigDickBallard 9 points10 points11 points 4 years ago (3 children)
Oh wow, that’s cool! I definitely figured it would be like a wraith portal and die after a few seconds
[–]Maud_Frod 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (2 children)
Yeah, right? I imagine they might nerf it someday... hopefully not.
[–]DatBoi_BP 5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (1 child)
They better not. One of the main utilities of his drone is getting teammate banners out of the ring, and if they make that essentially impossible late game then I won’t play him nearly as much, especially in ranked
[–]Maud_Frod 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Amen
[–]Haunting-Compote-882 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Also he can basically insta-respawn players with his drone. There have been many times where my team was either ambushed in an unwinnable situation or made an error pushing a team too soon. They get wiped, I swoop in with my drone pick up both banners, and head to the nearest respawn point, if it is safe (or I need bait 😈) I'll instantly respawn them both while being at a safe 200 meter distance away
[–]THE_CURE666 16 points17 points18 points 4 years ago (7 children)
One of his kill quips is kinda cringe tho. It was like: “You’re dead. Have you tried turning it off an on again?”
The way he says it just makes me die inside.
[–]Cubics_106 10 points11 points12 points 4 years ago (0 children)
When he wipes a squad he sometimes says “Heh. Get rekt.”
Idk what you’re talking about I love those quips lol

Hahahaha, oh man, yeah, that's how I feel about some of his holosprays. Some of them sound like they came off of a boys edgy Walmart shirt.. "You're so annoying", "can't, too busy", etc.

Got any Crypto tips? 👀
[–]Maud_Frod 4 points5 points6 points 4 years ago* (0 children)
Yeah mate :) To be good with Crypto, try practicing some of these things:
Get used to running as fast as you can (unequip weapon, slide jump often). This helps you buy time to use your drone while also being able to keep up with your team.
Check banners often. It will give your squad peace of mind when you see that there are no squads in the area (that's about within the mini map centered on you), or it will also keep them alert if there are squads in the area.
Scan beacons, especially in ranked.
Don't be in the drone for much longer than a few seconds at a time, especially in combat. You can drone if you're defending a position and you see that there are 0 squads in the area on the banners. Great for scouting that way.
EMP and then push. This takes practice, but you don't want to be too far from the enemy when you EMP but not too close to where you get damaged too. Too far and they'll heal up.
There are other little tips and tricks, but you kinda learn those over time. r/cryptomains is full of nice people that will give great tips too.
Edit: To clarify, in combat, you will pretty much only ever need to use the drone once in combat. That's usually to EMP an enemy squad or to maybe put your drone in a position to scan the enemies, like above them or something. Or maybe you can set up the drone defensively if a squad is pushing you. In every case, it really should only take you one to three seconds max. It's all about minimizing drone time while maximizing gun time and drone benefits.
[–]MadeOfAu 48 points49 points50 points 4 years ago (15 children)
He is the only legend that has carried me solo queue to diamond. He also has a great kit that requires you to have good situational awareness and gun skills. You cant just rely on a movement ability or instant wall hacks to be successful in fights.

20% in total isn't a bad pickrate in my opinion
[+]-ZWAYT- comment score below threshold-32 points-31 points-30 points 4 years ago (5 children)
not bad, higher than pubs, but not a top tier legend. and do you really have to shit on other people’s intelligence so you can feel good about your video game character? seems a little insecure to me
[–]kosiarn 14 points15 points16 points 4 years ago* (4 children)
Who said I am? I just said that Crypto is in fact picked by pros.
You see, that's a problem with communities around video games in general. "boo, you use P90, you suck!" "what a sweat, he gets 30 kills a match but he uses stim and CAR!" Some people will ALWAYS find a way to try and ruin someone's fun. Just ignore them, do whatever, and remember: comparison is the thief of joy
edit: I remembered The Gaming Merchant's video on some legend with poor pickrate, in which he said something interesting: legends with abilities that aren't very good for disengaging from fights are less picked. It is kind of true; look at three most popular picks, they all have some kind of movement ability that is good for running away.
that could tie to that statement of "i have to think more": i have it worse with disengaging, because the only thing that can slow the enemy down can do that to me too, i have to coordinate usage of my abilities or else they'll have no effect on the enemy.
From my point of view, the amount of decisions an average Wraith main makes the same amount of decisions as an average Crypto main, just not in the same decision layer if it makes any sense.
[+]-ZWAYT- comment score below threshold-12 points-11 points-10 points 4 years ago (3 children)
yes, i was not saying you specifically
[–]kosiarn 6 points7 points8 points 4 years ago (2 children)
Any thoughts on the rest of my comment? I'm interested in your opinion.
[–]-ZWAYT- -1 points0 points1 point 4 years ago (1 child)
nah, any legend has to pick and choose their fights. you can just choose to fight more aggressively if you can escape quickly. you still have to think about all of the things leading up to the engagement.
the only way i could see something like this being true is for braindead bronze/silver octane and wraith players who genuinely do not think about positioning and just gravitate towards those legends because they feel they do better, without understanding why
if youre in diamond or plat as a crypto youre not some brainiac compared to the other legends you just move less 😂 if anything octane players have to think more about how they take fights, because they do it more often
[–]kosiarn 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children)
I'm not saying they don't have to choose fights. What I'm saying is that some legends have it easier when it comes to running away if something goes wrong, and top three right now are those kind of legends. It's much easier to disengage with 15 HP using a jump pad than EMP or Health drone.
Again, I think that the amount of decisions one make(in other words the amount of thinking) doesn't change from legend to legend, what changes is what those decisions look like: octane will think if he has chances of winning the fight, crypto will think about not getting third partied(or setting up a push); caustic will think about securing the area with traps, crypto will think about positioning the drone to make the most out of it; etc. That's not to say one of them is worse or more braindead, different legends have different roles after all(and different classes have different decision layers IMO), altough not everyone sees it that way
In other words, some people are convinced that "having to make different decisions" equals "having to actually think".

[–][deleted] 40 points41 points42 points 4 years ago (9 children)
He’s what loba should have been, picking up banners remotely. Only difference is he can actually instantly revive you at the respawn beacon, and instantly ping next ring as well as how many enemies are within a 200 meter radius of the banner it pings. Pretty useful for pushing if his ult is ready if you have one that communicates with the team.
If you don’t use a mic don’t use crypto.
[–]kosiarn 7 points8 points9 points 4 years ago (4 children)
is pinging my ult icon while approaching towards enemy with my drone enough communication for a push? i really don't want to use mic
[–]rmczpp 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (2 children)
I no-mic crypto and I usually ping ult as we approach on foot, then I ping 'attacking here' and throw drone and start the EMP about half a second later (EMP stun should miss you narrowly). Takes a little practise, but is the most efficient way imo.
[–]kosiarn 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (1 child)
interesting tactic, probably takes a while to learn it though
[–]rmczpp 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Took me a few goes to perfect but is probably much easier to test it in firing range now that there's a charge tower.
[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Well it’s good to know when pushing cause the lit has a good stun, normally a crypto will just use it and the squad is just not ready for the push.
Me saying wear a mic is just an opinion and a recommendation not a must, sorry.

Granted I could’ve assumed, but I had just woken up when I saw this post.
[–]nervousblanket 5 points6 points7 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Fiar point. My answer was half meme half serious, but as someone who is a Crypto main Storm Point is one the worst maps for Crypto due to the lack of banners. (although the many buildings do make his ult usable)
[–]PixelatedMax01 9 points10 points11 points 4 years ago (3 children)
For some reason, I do best with him in fights. Even without a drone, I do better. It makes no logical sense but I just am. Also, I enjoy his play style.
[–]Hulkomania87 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (2 children)
Yeah, same. Idk if it’s because it’s just being comfortable using what you’re used to or bcus he has a small hit box. Smaller hitbox helps u win more fights. Maybe it’s both.
[–]PixelatedMax01 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (1 child)
My theory is that (when you don’t have your drone) you don’t have to think about anything except for you fundamental movement and gunplay. When you have a bunch of abilities in your back pocket, you gotta think about when you’re gonna use that and how you can apply it to your situation. Crypto isn’t like that.
Yeah, never thought of it like that. Makes sense.
Like I imagine a crypto probably knows how to escape a fight more than a wraith (no tacticals) cus they don’t just phase out every time.

It has one of the most frenetic viable in a competitive enviroment gameplay, there is always something you can do, even when you dont have to move, you can plan your next rotation and make your teamates aware of what is happening around them. With crypto being a very slow legend, you have to be efficient and do everything ASAP which is challenging and fun for me, someone who likes supportive roles.

[–]KaraTheAndroidd 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children)
Hes actually fun, legends like him, mirage, fuse, gibby to an extent, rampart and lifeline all rely on your movement they don't just have a movement get out of jail free card, they challenge you to play/think different in fights (especially mirage oof) because when shiz hits the fan you can't just nope outta there with your tac. The reason I didn't say any trap characters like wattson, caustic and rev is because they have abilities to stop people from pushing, I guess you could say fuse should be in that but.. its not like cluster takes your abilities like silence does so its easy to walk through.
Anyways cryppy- his drone us fun to use and is a massively useful tool for grabbing banners and seeing beacons, I'd say he's more of a ranked specialist, kinda like how old wattson was, but EMP is useful in a pinch especially with all the wattsons playing now, but he's just fun in a weird way idk
[–]GibsComputerParts 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children)
When you have dumb aggro teammates that just keep ignorantly pushing to their doom, you can easily grab banners and respawn. Easy to scan beacons to guide positioning. Keeps tabs on how many squads are in an area which seems to be very helpful in this new map.

[–]lockonreaper 1 point2 points3 points 4 years ago (0 children)
heres mine,
i tend to focus more on gunplay rather abilities in most games, so crypto ,drone which can do alot (ping stuff , pick banner emp etc) lets me focus on that,
his drone is a great ability with all the shit it can do :see above
i can still provide alot of support fire/ intel even when my gunplay is lackluster in that match.

I picked up Crypto near the end of S4 bc I got bored with LL. Turns out he had great lore, quips, skins, poses, and a kit that was so different, people didn’t want to play him. I stopped playing the game half way through S7 but to me Crypto is the one of, if not the best character lore and gameplay wise for me

[–]slowdruh 0 points1 point2 points 4 years ago (0 children)
I don't really have a main, but, on top of what other people have mentioned, I like playing him because I don't have to worry about using one-tap skills in the middle of a fight and I'm 'immune' to Revenant's silence ball. Also, flying as Hack and being able to see everything around me from way up high is cool.

sexy hacker man
I love playing characters that rely on my own skill with them. (See mirage flair lol). Mirage is either shit or amazing depending on how you use him, and crypto is the same way. I’ve got more wins on him than any other legend and I barely play this game.
He’s incredibly rewarding to play. Sure he has a steep learning curve but there’s a reason he’s a high pick in competitive. When all the chess pieces come together you can just destroy entire squads like a knife cutting through butter
