After his recent buffs, Crypto is arguably one of the strongest Recon class legends in the game. With the ability to remotely scan enemies, survey beacons, loot bins, care packages, and numerous other items, this Legend packs a lot of utility in a small package.

2) Alter

Season 21's latest addition, Alter, is a Skirmisher Legend. Her role in this comp is to provide her team with the ability to traverse through surfaces. Alter's ultimate ability Void Nexus comes into play each time you seek to attack enemy squads other Legend can replace her because her ability to swiftly teleport her entire team back to safety is simply unparalleled.
