Man I just don’t think we need a fourth mutant built around countering techs, we really don’t need to kick that class while they’re down. I also think that requiring a light intercept on fight start and after every special to realistically achieve anything is maybe just a little dumb. At least Enchantress who also “requires” intercepts lets you do it with any attack and doesn’t outright stop you from hitting her until you do it. 200% evade until you light intercept is just too much, especially with the AI problems.

Going by the current Kabam trends, they're making hard defenders. Now what I tried to create here was a 4/5 attacker with a 4/5 defense as well. As for "while they're down" what exactly are you implying? The tech class has some greats, and we HAVE seen mutants kill Tech-type champions like Sentinels. Looking to it, I do not think that ignoring class disadvantage against a net total of 7 champions (Peni, Sentinel, Warlock, Hulkbuster, HTD, Nimrod and Ultron ) is "kicking a class". As for light intercepting, if for instance, you have a war boss photon, do you RISK medium intercepts that could be back drafted, considering the AI situation active currently, or would you attempt a light intercept, being safe in case your opponent does not, in fact, dash in, and you're safe with only a whiff? If you are really troubled by light intercepting after specials, use a Slow, Coldsnap or Power Drain champion. I don't see anyone complaining about Stealth Spidey's Evade mechanic.

Well if you want me to go in harder against this than sure because this comment makes it pretty clear you don’t know what you’re doing with this design.

1: I’m not complaining just because he explicitly ignores class disadvantage against techs, I’m complaining because he ignores tech abilities. The attack bonus part couldn’t be less relevant. Being immune to special lock and power lock shuts down a lot of the tech class’s potential utilities, and shock resistance is an annoyance for quite a lot of techs as well. Shuri, Idoom, Psycho-man, and Guardian are just some of the techs that have their kit gutted against Mr. M even if he doesn’t actually “ignore class disadvantage”. Offensively, asphyxiation preventing glancing and crit resistance alongside the disintegration field removing valuable armor up buffs curtails a number of tech defenders like Fantman, Red skull, OG Iron man, and Idoom.

2: Regardless of whether it makes sense lore-wise (spoiler alert: it always makes sense lore-wise because the class divisions are arbitrary Kabam things, doesn’t mean Hulk should beat every skill champ like lore obviously implies) the tech class is very much is the weak class compared to the others. I’m surprised this is up for debate. Besides a few exceptions, a lot of techs are mostly mutant killers with little else to offer besides that and Kabam keeps seeing fit to make mutants that challenge techs because Nimrod was a bit too good. We don’t need to feed that more. Not to mention that you went so hard on beating mutants with this guy that Mr. M would probably be taking the place of Nimrod and other techs on most teams anyways.

3: You evidently don’t realize the strength of the evade ability you gave this guy. 200% evade means it ignores most AAR effects, including slow (despite your odd suggestion that that would be an effective counter) and any decelerate less powerful than Sandman’s (so all of them). As is it’s genuinely kinda a better version of Bullseye’s killer instinct. I don’t know how you can possibly say with a straight face that this guy being untouchable until you light intercept him with less evade counters than usual is at all comparable to Stealth Spidey who is literally just “trigger the evade once (easy) and it goes on cooldown and you can safely do whatever for the next 25 seconds or until the next sp1”. Given the state of the AI where it can absolutely play hardball, I don’t want to be unable to do anything until the AI lets me do a rather specific thing compared to Bullseye who is at least the rather simple “wait a few seconds” (Bullseye would be much worse if he turtled with his sp1, but from my experience he’s very eager to let that loose). You’re also creating the same problem Bullseye has where any power gain node is gonna make him very uncomfortable to fight.

4: Circling back to point 2, Kabam has made real clear that they sorta regret making Nimrod as good a class destroyer as he was, even if he’s more middling everywhere else. Mr. M is kinda Nimrod+. Seriously, letting him basically ignore all mutant special attacks while in omega state and inflict up to -150% AAR is a bit much. This feels pretty out of line with what Kabam would want a champ kit to do these days. They didn’t put wounded animal on the Toad SOS fight in order to shut out Nimrod just so that they can release another all-encompassing mutant breaker that will require similarly targeted nodes to block. He needs some sorta flaw in his kit, because right now the only Mutant he seems questionable against is Domino (maybe Havok but the AAR and power drain might take care of that).

Well,this is written in awful portuguese.

That's because it's brazilian. Still is wrong though

What?

Brazilians speak portuguese....lol

And if im not wrong you're a brazilian too.

No I'm portuguese. This post is written in a way that is recognizable to be brazilian, from a portuguese view point that is.

Ok, patrício além-mar.

But you're wrong or with some kind of language prejudice.

Any language have their slangs or people that are lazy to write correctly. As some Portugal citizens may do the same.

But it's portuguese after all.

Point.

Portuguese and Spanish have many dialects with different ways to speak and write the same language. This type of language barrier exists in English as well. A good example is the difference between England English and American English. Even in the United States, you find varying differences in how English is used. I'm from more the western area and when I spent time in Missouri for awhile, it was as if I went to a completely different part of the world because they weren't speaking my language. In this context, I'm willing to believe that Brazilians can have their own way of speaking and writing Portuguese that is different from Portugal Portuguese

So, I just found a fun interaction, which I think is a bug with Count Nefaria's "Ionic overcharge" ability to gain power when it's denied to his opponent.

If it's not a bug, then it's one heck of an ability...

I just took Attuma through the Paragon Gauntlet because he's great for Red Skull, and I assumed that he'd be great for Nefaria, too, since Attuma goes Unstoppable and gains Power when the opponent Evades. Nefaria has an Evade-when-stunned node, and no other particularly significant nodes.

Since punishing Evades with Unstoppable is literally called out in Nefaria's "weaknesses" section, on his champion page, I thought it would be an easy, effective strategy.

Here's how it went:
