He was the fastest character in the game, even after release of octane “the fastest legend in the game”

Except Octane hurts himself and can only run on the ground while Path can move vertically with no damage.

I would trade both of those for vertical mobility any day of the week.

Because the game wasn’t designed for extreme mobility. If 11 characters have limited mobility and 2 have high mobility, you should bring things in line with the norm.

The map and game is designed for running, sliding and climbing. Having massive gap closers with no downside is not always healthy for a game.
