Possessor Mech Idea

I ran this idea by a few people in game chat and they seemed to like it. 

what if, for a new mech, we had a possessor? for a few second, you can take control of an enemy mech and turn them against teammates.

We have a large variety of mechs with crazy abilities, from damage transfer to mines and stun/shock abilities.

edit: it wasn't clear, this mech is because everyone seems to have better gear than others, it can often be frustrating to play against someone whose kitted out. This mech allows you to take advantage of that for your team.

There is nothing I hate more in games than being removed from control entirely. To have that control taken and have the oppont be able to get behind my teams lines at the same time? I already hate seeker and it's been NERFed by being unable to do extra damage hitting the sides and backs of its opponents. This is seeker pre-NERF but worse. I don't see how anyone in game chat liked this because I'm sorry but this is the worst idea for a mech I have ever seen.

The key is that it's not a teleporter like seeker is.  This one is stationary but it's like a remote control access. 

the goal isnt to teleport behind and attack, it's just to turn a mech on the comrades for a few seconds. 

I get why you hate it though. Seeker is a pain in the neck to deal with.

compromise: the mech needs to be within line of sight of the one it's possessing. That way the teammates can take it out before too much damage is done

Thanks for your idea! Sounds really interesting. I'll pass it on to our devs 👍

There is enough that removes control from the player in mech arena completely. It does in fact do what seeker does too, not teleporting but getting behind enemy lines with absurd ease, but makes it worse by entirely revoking control from another player as well which I said is my most hated thing even more than seeker.

Like the amount of freezing abilities in the game that make eclipse a necessity. Those no skill abilities that freeze you in place and disable your weapons and ability so your opponent can take you out with no risk to themselves piss me off more than anything.

They should change Bastions blast to a frosty flashbang (a mix between stasis effect and solis flash) instead of stun/damage for the Christmas Holidays... its something annoying so they'd probably like it lol I shouldn't post this 😋
