As we can see, the top three most picked legends are Octane, Pathfinder, and Conduit, who are all known for their high mobility and versatility. These legends are able to quickly engage or disengage from fights, rotate around the map, and reposition themselves in advantageous spots.
They also have strong synergies with Conduit, the new support legend introduced in Season 19, who can heal them, boost their speed and damage their enemies with her electric abilities.
Bangalore and Horizon are the fifth and sixth most-picked legends, respectively. They are both offensive legends that can create chaos and confusion on the battlefield with their abilities.
Bangalore can use her Smoke Launcher to create a smokescreen that obscures the vision of her enemies. At the same time, Horizon can use her Gravity Lift to launch herself and her allies into the air and her Black Hole to suck in enemies and projectiles with a mini singularity.
The rest of the legends have lower pick rates, ranging from 4.3% to 0.7%. Some of these legends are more niche or situational, requiring more coordination or skill to use effectively.
Some of these legends are also affected by the balance changes that occur every season, making them more or less viable depending on the meta. For example, Seer, the new recon legend introduced in Season 18, was initially very popular and powerful, but after several nerfs, he became the least-picked legend in Season 19.
