I feel like there are multiple characters whose mechanics have a lot of unrealized depth and who are played more simply than they could potential be played.
>Forsburn
Prime example. Most players barely use smoke, clone, or his actionable teleport. I've seen literally two people use his special pummel as a free follow-up actionable teleport in hundreds of hours. Rarely do you ever counter anyone who does all of these things in combination. 90% of people play him purely as a disjoint character.
>Olympia
The gem lets you do a lot of Insane shit and almost all Olympia players just... don't do it. No one uses it to go deep off-stage. No one uses it as an air-to-air combo extender or kill confirm. No one uses the dunk. Although to be fair, the dunk fucking sucks even if you have a hard read. I didn't see one other Olympia player do WebM-related until Ion did it in tournament last month. FADC is also underutilized.
>Kragg
Needs no explanation.
The thing is that all of these characters also double as braindead, low skill floor characters even though you can play them weird as hell. I don't know if that's a good thing or not.
