Re: Solvarch is a letdown?
Yeah I watched this video this morning.https://youtu.be/ABN1aU8EESE?si=OHJWT20pmRLnaYSv
He can do Bullseye btw, with a completely different rotation. I think people are being way too quick to judge lol he's not a champ who's easy to figure out, his mechanics are very complex and for non energy matchups sp3 is the way to go. I assume nobody here had been using sp3 this way so far.
Also he showcases what I explained, you start with sp2 instead so you have time to build up charges again before the ten energize so you have more core charges, he's slower but he can even do Spider Woman this way.
I don't have Solvarch and honestly his design is not my cup of tea, but his damage and utility looks pretty good from what I can tell.
Don't really understand why Tairique is so upset.
What did people expect, Ares?
Re: Solvarch is a letdown?
Hard disagree on that. Scores of Champs have been amazing and everyone said they were meh when they came out. Hyperion comes to mind, Tigra is another. I've seen people turn their nose up at every Champ over the years that isn't big yellow or red numbers. Fact is, people don't spend enough time using Champs to make assessments.I love how Champs come out for about 5 minutes and people form these assessments. When will they ever learn?Only need 5 minutes to identify MID
Re: Solvarch is a letdown?
He's another of the game's over 100 mid-tier champions.What I don't understand they keep dropping mid attackers but op defenders with a huge list to their abilities. It feels unbalanced.
There are at least two every month. I think we may never again see a champion who's useful in every scenario. The focus has increasingly been on champions for extremely specific scenarios or focused on specific defenders.
He's more of a counter to Onslaught and mutants in general. I'd say he was specifically designed for Captain Britain and her Neuroshocks.
He'll be a reasonable defender; it seems the cosmic ones handle him without any major issues.
Unfortunately, all the versatile champions have fallen victim to Rarity Lock: Kate Bishop, Hulkling, Hercules, Magik, Quake, Ghost, Valkyrie, Scorpion, Absorbing Man...
There's no point in expecting anything like this from new champions. Not every champion needs to be versatile or extremely good on offense. But I got the feeling his rotation is very slow. I didn't feel like using him at all.
Re: Who is better choice to R4
Plot twist: It’s Thanos (classic) 💀Then he would absolutely be my pick
Re: Sabertooth…
He’s definitely my most wanted rebirth champ. I think his buff is great, especially for questing and incursions. My 6R5A has been super fun to play and can ramp like crazy. I don’t think it’s fair at all to call his buff trash.Would have preferred this against both rol winter soldier and captain Marvel just to compare jis damage in bg
Re: Solvarch is a letdown?
Community trying to gaslight themselves into thinking a borderline useless champion is decent? No way! Actually funny how easily you guys are still manipulated by a single youtube video showcasing a champion in battlegrounds with no nodes and masteries. He might do well against Onslaught, Jean and maybe Cassandra Nova when she's obtainable. That's all the meta mutant defenders she can take really, she can't even do the whole class as well as you're making it out to be so why even bother with him? He's straight up terrible against non-energy/mutant defenders, this shouldn't be of discussion at this point. Considering his utility is based around mutant class it shouldn't come off as a surprise when he still performs poorly against the likes of Enchantress and Photon either.
As a final note I should clarify that all these comments are based on his expected performance in battlegrounds, maybe he turns out great for war but I see no viability for battlegrounds other than maybe some cheesy metas. Also I find it weird that he can't freely do medium combo enders against Onslaught who is the only justification of his existence but we'll see I guess.
And please don't come up with "He can counter Captain Britain! ", just let her terrible rework be forgotten 🙏 She already peaked for 2 weeks of a bgs meta, there's no higher for her.
