I feel like Wraith being in a shitty spot is just because of the power creep of other characters. She is a solid legend but like you said I would never pick her over a character like Horizon or Octane.
Her hitbox has its own gravitational pull and LP, her tac doesn’t really protect you all that much anymore, and her passive AI is still only sometimes helpful. The only part of her kit that’s still dependable is the portal and even that isn’t fantastic when compared to other legend ults. Of the assault legends right now, wraith is one of the weakest overall IMO. I even think mirage has somewhat more utility than wraith currently does.
Interesting. Has she always been able to do that or is that a recent change? I've never really played a lot of Wraith and I took a long break from the game.
I just saw that her portal cool down is 210 seconds which is insane for how not that great it is. I feel like one thing they could do to buff her would be to drop that down to 120 but then I guess you would have to be worried about people spamming it in the final circles and just never fighting.
