Is role reversal in aq supposed to work this way?

Went in to fight a cosmic doombot with role reversal modifier active and always wondered if it really changed the attack effect if you used a normally weak class champ to get the supposed role reversal bonus. Used vision as weak class but strong class with role reversal active and can't tell if my attack increased from the decrease it showed in the pre fight screen but the doombot's special abilities when fighting a weak class activated. Shouldn't it not have activated since role reversal made my vision a strong class champ against cosmic doombot? Makes me suspicious role reversal doesn't give you the boost it should if you change the class you take to new strong class.

    The classes remain the same, you still don’t want to use a mystic champ against Torch, even if your attack is a little higher and his a little lower.

    on the prefight screen, the numbers won't show, but you had the class advantage and your attack was higher. however, abilities that reference a class advantage still work against that class. in your example, your attack was higher but his abilities would still trigger

    @Thedancingkid and @Thicco_Mode are correct. Role Reversal reverses the Attack Bonus/Penalty, but does not change any abilities that target certain classes. Furthermore, some classes will still be a bad choice to use in certain situations. Like the aforementioned Mystics vs Human Torch.
