The Legend with the highest pick rate in Season 18 is Octane. His mobility is second to none, making him the perfect Legend to spearhead rotations, attack opponents, or disengage from a fight. His popularity is not surprising, but his hold at the top spot is, especially in a season focused on Revenant.
Revenant Reborn, a rework of Revenant, headlined Season 18 with new abilities, a Collection Event, and an upgraded Heirloom. For the majority of August, Revenant was the most popular Legend as players explored all his new features, but just one month later, he already lost the top spot. Soon, he might just be overtaken by Pathfinder.
