Re: Dr Voodoo sp2β¦ better or worse?
Takes a bit of a π© on the rebirth idea/integrity to do that, if that's how they're going to go about their businessI guess to be fair to them, they did label these as reworks and reworks are not necessarily buffs. Even though that's dumbI think the idea was to make the Even SP2 power control and the Odd damage, where Even now has power control and damage and Odd was pretty much worthless most of the time except for keeping power low if you did it accidentally. Unfortunately, they picked Power Dissolve (and it's a debuff (boo!) instead of a passive effect (meh) or a buff he puts on himself (π€!) that benefits from his sig (π€ π€!) = worse) and it doesn't do anything (except give free willpower healing) unless they're losing power, so you have to have already done an Even SP2 or an SP3 before the odd SP2 to get to the damage.The issue is the chance of it occurring didn't matter if he was awakened. So better for him being unawakened but worse overall.They did explicit say it's not a nerf, well have to wait until gameplay but remember that he gains increased ability accuracy on combo so the rates are probably higher than thisSome of the numbers are better (was one 50% chance and now three 65% chances), but what was the likelihood they were going to say they nerfed anything? I'd like to see the explanation and demo of how his SP2 is better in practice. Right now, it's pretty good and the damage and power control are readily accessible. He's just too weak as a 6 star, even ascended.
Also making the power burn a steal instead is disgusting in a bad way. What the hell, Kabam?
Unless I'm missing something, it would seem to be worse in general. They've pumped up a weak aspect a bit and took away what was actually really good.
Cycling Even SP2s would keep the opponent unable to perform any specials while doing steady damage... and now I see why they made it worse. Kabam, you're not slick with your Kabampaign to keep power control and regen sucking throughout the game. That's annoying. I was really looking forward to a Dr Voodoo strong enough to take to rank 4. Now I'll have to see how annoying this new loop is before I put resources towards him.
Re: Who are you voting for REWORK
Ghost rider.
It was between him and Loki but I ultimately chose GR.
So chances are we won't get either one and will get a WS buff. Kinda like when we had a chance to make DS great again and people voted for cyclops.

Re: Stream Recap - August 1, 2025
I claimed the twitch giveaways but they still havenβt showed up into my game for me. Anyone else having this problem??Did you relink your account before the stream or when did you link your Kabam id to your twitch?

Re: My Body is Ready
3 falcon 2 maker 2 spideyI don't have Spidey, don't have Maker (obviously), and while I have a duped Falcon he's getting buffed and really needs his sigs.
So honestly, while that wouldn't be ideal, it also wouldn't be the worst outcome lol.
Re: Dr Voodoo sp2β¦ better or worse?
isn't the medium strictly worse? 1 Loa for half a bar of power seems awful. I mean sometimes I guess you rather throw the SP1... but there are better mechanics to allow for that (Deadpool X-force mechanic, fractured power bar, etc.)... and only netting 1 Loa for that much power is a bit of a joke.
Re: Thoughts on the 9 buffed champions?
Dr voodoo looks mid asf I wonder what kind of defenders he actually can take? Lol. Half of cosmic is poison immune so he lose main sources of damage, need to go for 2 sp2 one with even and one with odd just to get the damage going. I wonder what problem he solved in the game except DP.
