After an inspiring conversation with @BitterSteel and @Ercarret , I decided to try my hand at a new buff concept for Iron Fist. We have also agreed to collaborate on a concept together next month, but for now, I will post my solo attempt.
The idea was to combine Chi, the power of the Iron Fist, and martial arts styles and matching synergies into his kit in a seamless, reasonable and accessible way.
Hope you like it and please leave your thoughts below.

Why buff Electro? First of all, Electro has a lot of potential (pun intended) to be a great character. I love his MCOC design and think there is a lot that can be done with him.
ABILITIES: Always active: Electro takes no damage from shock effects and each shock grants Electro bonus damage and +15% static shock damage. Enemies shock attacks gain +75% accurary and duration. When attacked with a physical contact attack, the opponent will take up to 40% of their damage back in the form of Static Shock damage. This % increases with Electro's power meter. When attacking a shocked opponent: Electro has a 10% chance per shock effect on the opponent to gain a shock effect on himself aswell. This chance is 20% when fighting a Mystic opponent and 5% when fighting a Science opponent. Shock effects on the opponent: Electro's energy flows through the enemies body, making it harder for their muscles to react in time. For each shock effect on the opponent, reduce their evade chance by 25%. This effect gets doubled when fighting #Spiderverse characters. Special attacks: All special attacks have a 100% chance to stun the opponent for 2 seconds + 1 second per power bar used for the special attack.
Special attack 1:
Each hit of this attack has an 80% chance to shock the opponent. Dealing energy damage to the opponent for 12 seconds.
Special attack 2:
Replace each shock debuff on the opponent with 2 ultra shock debuffs. Ultra shock debuffs deal 3 times the damage of a normal shock, and last for 5 seconds each.
Special attack 3:
Electro instantly gains 10 shock effects on himself, this effect can only be triggered once per fight.
Signature ability: Electrostatic: Electro gains +1-5% crit rate and +2-10% crit damage rating for each shock effect on Electro.
Synergies: Shock and stomp --> with Rhibo: Electro: 50% chance to gain a passive fury increasing damage by +10% when knocking down an opponent with a heavy attack. Rhino: Rhino's fury buffs become passive and no longer fall of overtime. This effect only works up till 10 fury buffs.
Sinister Six --> with #SinisterSix members. Electro: Gain +10% combat power rate for each #SinisterSix champion in the team. #SinisterSix members: Reduce the damage of incoming shock effects by 50% and gain +10% effect for each shock effect on them.
Don't you know? ---> with Spider-man (Stark enhanced) Electro: #Spider-verse opponents start the fight with 2 shock effects on them, each lasting 12 seconds. Spider-man (Stark Enhanced): Shock debuffs on the opponent gain 100% increased duration.
The fact they're both Trophy champs and Act-ending bosses means that (1) any buff they get needs to be simple - these are early-game bosses, and we mustn't over-complicate them. Also (2) any buff mustn't leave them overpowered. It's important that Trophy champs don't fall into some 'Beyond God Tier' category, as this leads to understandable resentment that they're so hard to obtain. Also (3) this shouldn't take up a lot of Developer time. We don't want to distract them from that all-important Moon Knight buff!
Ideally, we're looking for fairly simple (preferably automatic) mechanics, and champs that are useable but not excessively powerful either on defense or offense. On the other hand, Trophies should hold some value, surely? The response to pulling 6* Thanos shouldn't be "Oh no, I got Thanos. Wish I'd just got 6*shards instead.. They might have been useful...". So in an ideal world they should have some payoff; some reason to use them that doesn't feel like you're deliberately hampering yourself.
So below are my suggestions for low-effort buffs that might at least give Thanos and Kang some use for players who want to actually play with them; particularly for players who don't have an Apocalypse to synergize with Kang. Stats given are for 5/65 champions.
Thanos #Villain of the Contest #Thanos army #Psychic shielding #XL (remove #Metal)
Passive Start with 16% Power Thanos is Immune to Power Drain, Steal and Burn
Heavy Attack Heavy Attacks inflict Armour Break (-800 Armour, 8s), and gain +369 Attack per buff active on Thanos
When Attacked When hit, Thanos has a 15% chance to generate a non-stacking Armour buff (900 Armour for eight seconds). The chance to proc Armour rises by a flat 5% per hit in the opponent's combo meter.
When Evaded Thanos dislikes being made to look a fool. When Evaded, he has a 60% chance to generate a Fury buff (+1352 Attack, 7s, max 3 stacks). Whilst this Fury is active, further Evades have a 100% chance to generate a Fury buff.
Critical Hits Thanos's base critical rate needs to be set to a more average 686 (previously 342) Critical Hits have a 60% chance to generate a Prowess buff granting +10% Special Damage (max 10). Prowess buffs last 7s, and are refreshed when another Prowess buff would be generated. They are consumed at the end of any Special Attack.
Special Attacks: If Thanos does not have a True Sense buff, generate a True Sense buff for 7 seconds. If Thanos does have a True Sense buff, refresh it and also generate a Fury, Precision or Cruelty buff for 7 seconds. - Fury: +1352 Attack - Precision: +850 Critical Rating - Cruelty: +850 Critical Damage Rating
SP1: The second (beam) hit causes True Damage, and inflicts a Weakness debuff (-40% Attack) and a Slow debuff, each lasting 7s. Each Prowess extends these debuffs by 0.5s.
SP2: This Attack causes True Damage, bypassing all resistances. It inflicts Rupture for 3252 damage over five seconds. For every two stacks of Prowess, inflict an additional Rupture.
SP3: Inflicts Armour Break (-800 for 10s) and Slow, both lasting 20 seconds. For every two stacks of Prowess, inflict an additional Armour Break.
Signature:
Thanos' starting Power rises from its basic 16% to a total of 40% Power.
Thanos punishes any attempt to drain, steal or Burn his Power with a burst of 3252 Direct damage
When Attacking, Kang enters Conquerer mode. In this mode, he diverts power to weapons and targeting, granting himself a permanent +200 Critical Rating and Critical Damage Rating, and enhancing his SP2 Power Drain. When defending, Kang enters Lord of Time mode. In this mode, Kang increases power to his defenses, granting +50% Potency to the Armour Up and Critical resistance benefits of his Armour.
Conqueror Armour Kang has a permanent Armour Up buff granting +900 Armour and +450 Critical Resistance. This is enhanced in Lord of Time mode. Kang's Armour buff cannot be Nullified or Staggered, and if removed, it has a 100% chance to return after ten seconds. Kang's advanced technology makes him immune to Armour Shattered, and he has a 40% chance to resist an Armour Break. His self-repair systems reduce the duration and Potency of Armour Break by 60% Whilst Kang's Armour Up buff is active, he gains Immunity to Shock, Coldsnap and Frostbite.
Special Attacks Special Attacks grant Kang a Vigilance Passive for 7 seconds, and grant no Power to the opponent.
SP1 - Inflicts Stun for 2.2 seconds, and a Suppression debuff for 10 seconds (Reduces the opponent's Defensive Combat Power Rate by 70%)
SP2 - The first energy beam cannot be passively Evaded. The last hit stuns the opponent for 1.8 seconds, and has a 100% chance to drain some of the opponent's Max Power: 50% in Lord of Time mode, and 100% in Conquerer mode. Each full bar of Power drained extends the Stun effect by 0.5 seconds.
SP3 - This potent attack inflicts Armour Break (-1200 Armour) and Heal Block debuffs for 15 seconds each, as well as Power Lock for eight seconds.
Signature Kang's Armour grants up to an additional +3900 Armour and +1300 Critical Resistance based on stored Power. Additionally, Kang starts the match with a Vigilance Passive, and these Passives gain +50% Duration.

This is a moderate rework for Ms Marvel, aiming for a simple beginner-friendly champion with a bit more utility for later-game use. I'm aiming for 'useable enough to make her not be a waste of rank-up resources', rather than 'God-Tier', although I suspect if the numbers were tweaked up further, she could hit fairly hard. I'm also suggesting we keep Ms Marvel's design as it is; whilst Captain Marvel (classic) gets a full-on redesign, including a new skin - see below.
Attack 2572
Health 31398
Passive
Ms Marvel has a permanent Fury buff which grants from +643 to +2572 Attack based on stored Power. If removed, this buff returns after six seconds.
Poison Immunity
Blocking
Gain +2670 Energy Resistance.
Gain +2% Power when blocking an Energy-based Attack.
Holding block for 2.2 seconds removes any Damaging Energy debuffs, each granting a burst of 10% Power.
Signature
Start the match with a Seventh Sense buff, granting Vigilance, +212-636 Crit Rating, and 65% chance to Autoblock Special Attacks for 4s. This buff starts Paused, and Unpauses when either an Autoblock is triggered or a Miss is bypassed. If Autoblock triggers, it counts as a Well-Timed block; and all subsequent hits of the Special Attack are also Autoblocked.
If removed for any reason, the Seventh Sense buff returns after 18-36 seconds (fastest at high Sig) or whenever using an SP3.
Special Attacks
Special Attacks have an 80% chance to trigger a random Fury (+643 Attack), Cruelty (+450 Critical Damage) or Energise (+25% Combat Power Rate) buff for seven seconds.
SP1: This attack has True Damage, and inflicts up to a burst of +30-90% Direct damage, scaling up with the opponent's Armour rating.
SP2: Each hit inflicts an Armour Break (-1200 Armour for 12s). Critical hits inflict an additional Armour Break.
Targets immune to Armour Break instead suffer a Fragility debuff for each Armour Break that would have been inflicted (+750 Critical Damage rating when hit) for 12s.
SP3: Grants an additional Fury buff for 20 seconds (effects identical to her permanent Fury buff). Additionally, gain a Stopping Power buff which removes any Unstoppable buffs for 10s when striking the opponent (this is effective through block).
I'll risk double-posting, after the first version went to adjudication heaven...
Thanks to the introduction of the MCU version of Captain Marvel, we have two almost identical-looking versions of Captain Marvel. Captain Marvel (Movie) is great. Captain Marvel (Classic) is... not so great...
But there's a comics-canon route we can take when reworking the original (Classic) version to make her a genuinely useful and genuinely different third CM for MCOC - She needs to become..... Binary!
(She may need some new animations...)
Attack 2572
Health 31398
At the start of the match
Start the match with a Power Gain buff granting 50% of a bar of Power over 12s.
Passive
+4420 Energy Resistance
Binary is immune to Poison, Coldsnap and Frostbite
Incinerate and Shock effects count as buffs for Binary's other abilities
Whilst she has five or fewer Prowess buffs, Binary generates an indefinite Prowess buff every ten seconds. Each Prowess buff increases her Special damage by 10%
Basic Attacks
All basic attacks inflict a burst of Energy damage equivalent to 10% of the damage done by the attack. This rises by a flat +5% per buff active on Binary.
Blocking
Gain +2% Power when blocking an Energy-based Attack.
Holding block for 2.2 seconds removes any Damaging Energy debuffs, each granting a burst of 10% Power.
A well-timed block against any Energy attack generates an indefinite Prowess buff that increases her Special damage by 10%. No stack limit.

This version of Rhino is what Kabam would call a momentum-based champion; like Dragon Man and Annihilus. He's intended to be extremely simple to play, although with the potential to be more rewarding in the hands of a skilled player. The best playstyle is going to largely involve charging your opponent into the corner and keeping them there; and if you line up the debuffs right, he should have an impressive ability to spam Heavy attacks when he does. He'll also have access to a fairly hard-hitting SP2 if he works for it a little.
Attack 2346 Health 38837 (health pool increased a little)
Passive Rhino Armour grants +1100 Physical Resistance and +550 Critical Resistance. When struck with a Critical Hit, Rhino reduces the opponent's critical damage rating by 60%. When Unstoppable, Rhino is immune to Stun.
All Attacks When struck or when striking the opponent, Rhino has a 10% chance to trigger Fury (+1360 attack for seven seconds). When Rhino strikes the opponent with a second Medium whilst they are pinned against the wall, 100% chance to trigger Fury. Fury does not stack.
When Fury is triggered offensively, additionally inflict a Physical Vulnerability debuff (-320 Physical Resistance for 10s). Max 3 stacks.
Inflicting a Physical Vulnerability debuff pauses existing Physical Vulnerability debuffs for three seconds.
When Evaded, or on Missing the opponent 60% chance to trigger Fury and gain Unstoppable for 1 second. Each rank of the Unfazed Mastery adds a flat 10% to this chance.
Dash Attacks Dash attacks are Unstoppable and have an 8% chance to be Unblockable. Gains +4% flat chance Vs Size M, and +8% Vs Size S opponents.
Heavy Attacks Heavy attacks generate 15% less Power in the opponent per unique debuff on them, to a maximum of three. Pause any Physical Vulnerability or Trauma debuffs for three seconds. Cooldown of six seconds.

Playing too defensively or getting beaten up can put a stop to Rhino's Rampage. Fortunately the more Rampage counters you have, the easier it is to bait out your opponents Special Attacks.
Signature Ability: Rhino's maximum Rampage counters rises to 20. Additionally, Rampage counters increase his Offensive Ability Accuracy by 2% per stack.
Special Attacks SP1: 70% chance to inflict Concussion (reducing Ability Accuracy by 66%) for eight seconds 70% chance to inflict Suppression, reducing defensive combat Power by 50% for eight seconds.

Science Experiments (Luke Cage) Luke Cage - Light combo-enders have a 100% chance to inflict an Exhaustion debuff for 10 seconds. Rhino - When Rhino Dashes, he has a 70% chance to shrug off one non-damaging debuff.
Ghulk is a crowd-pleasing (literally!) champion with some interesting abilities; and some less interesting ones. Really he just needs a minor rework: the basics of his Crowd Excitement mechanics work fine, although could do with a numbers adjustment. The main issue with Crowd Excitement is that it rewards aggressive gameplay, but Ghulk doesn't have any useful means to stop the opponent gaining power, or make them consume it. (A five second Enervate on his SP2 really does nothing to help him control the match!)
So he needs some mechanism like Overseer's Taunt, to enable aggressive play without taking an SP3 to the face. He also needs a bit more opportunity to access to his damage-boosting SMASH/Crowd Frenzy abilities, and some actual utility. Hulk shouldn't really be about Enervating or Heal Blocking, anyway. He should be breaking things...
Attack 2459 Health 33,837
Passive Hulk is immune to all Poisons, Exhaustion and Fatigue.
Adoration of the Masses The basic mechanics of Hulk gaining and losing Crowd Excitement are unchanged. When Crowd Excitement hits 100, it locks for 9 seconds, then resets to 70 When Ghulk is Taunted or Infuriated, Crowd Excitement does not fall over time. Effects:
Ghulk gains up to +1623 Attack based on Crowd Excitement.
For every point of Crowd Excitement, the opponent has +0.5% chance to throw a Special Attack
When Crowd Excitement is above 80, Ghulk is immune to Power Lock, Enervate, Suppression and Special Lock effects.
Whilst Crowd Excitement is at 100, all of Ghulk's attacks SMASH.
Crowd Excitement potency and the lock duration at 100 have been increased slightly; and now also causes a passive Taunt-like effect, encouraging Ghulk's opponents to throw Specials and keep their Power Bars low. Crowd Excitement also grants Gladiator Hulk a new (unique) Immunity to having his beloved Special Attacks held back by killjoys like Professor X, Nimrod and Psylocke.
SMASH Attacks Ghulk has a 5% chance to trigger SMASH on each attack. This is increased by a flat +10% when he is affected by Taunt, Infuriate, or when Face Me! is active. SMASH abilities are unaffected by Ability Accuracy Reduction. Every 12 seconds, Ghulk gets angry and prepares to SMASH on his next attack. Additionally, Hulk gets angry when he is caused to Miss, or when the opponent Dodges or Evades his strikes, with a 100% chance to ready a SMASH. Effects:
SMASH lasts for the full duration of Heavy or Special Attacks.
Gain +1623 Attack
SMASH Attacks are passively Unstoppable.
If a Heavy Attack SMASHes, it inflicts Armour Break (-800 Armour for 8s), and increases Crowd Excitement by 15
SMASH now triggers a little more often, inflicts a little more damage, and is readied as an immediate response to being Evaded or Missing an opponent. This will make Ghulk significantly more threatening on defense against attackers using those strategies.
Face Me! Ghulk is enraged by opponents using cowardly passive damage-over-time effects, triggering Face Me! Being a natural contestant, he accepts the passive effects of the Battlerealm itself (e.g. Flare, Bane, Life Transfer) without these triggering his rage. Face Me! is also triggered at any time whilst Ghulk is Taunted or Infuriated. Effects:
Gain +3278 Attack
Gain +245 Critical Rating
Instantly heal 70% of all damage taken
Opponent is 70% more likely to trigger a Special Attack, in panic.
Face Me has a slightly higher Attack bonus and a modest crit rate increase that should be helpful given Ghulk's low basic Crit Rating. Opponents that trigger Face Me will have a very high chance of throwing Specials, thanks to the additional passive Taunt effect of Crowd Excitement. Face Me! will also be triggered quite a bit more widely, thanks to the existence of nodes and champions inflicting Taunt or Infuriate. To revisit an old axiom: Don't make him angry...
Signature: Ghulk's existing Sig, Pollice Verso (Gain a Regeneration or Fury passive) is unchanged. Additionally, when Crowd Excitement hits 100, it is locked for an additional 2.5-5 seconds before starting to fall. Since Ghulk's kit is based around Crowd Excitement, this seemed a sensible way to improve that mechanic, and help Hulk 'cash in' on the burst of enhanced damage, and the access to Unstoppable, Armour-breaking Heavy attacks that it gives him. At max Sig, it'll last 14 seconds, compared to the old seven seconds.
Special Attacks All Special Attacks that strike the opponent inflict Concussion, lasting for 5s per bar of Power spent. This reduces ability accuracy by 55%. Concussion debuffs stack up to three, and expire one at a time. SP1: 75% chance to inflict Stun for 1.8s. If this attack hits, Ghulk gains an Energise passive (+33% combat Power for 18s, max two stacks) SP2: Inflicts Armour Break, -1200 Armour for nine seconds. If this attack SMASHes, it is a guaranteed Critical Hit, and an additional stack of Armour Break is inflicted. SP3: This attack inflicts an additional stack of Concussion. Set Crowd Excitement to 100, or reset the timer if already at 100. This attacks gains +2459 Attack if it SMASHes.
So hopefully, having access to fairly long-lasting Concussion effects, Armour Breaks, a passive Taunt and Immunity to Power Lock/Special Lock will provide Ghulk a bit of the utility he was lacking. He'll have more frequent access to Face Me! when he's Taunted or Infuriated. Energise will help him throw more Special Attacks to help keep his Crowd Excitement high (although I've dropped his Stun chance slightly, to prevent him eternally stun-locking his opponent). And if he can throw an SP2 during his Crowd Frenzy phase (when all his attacks SMASH), it'll be Unstoppable, a guaranteed Critical Hit; have +3246 Attack, and inflict Concussion and two Armour Breaks; which should combine for a decent, if not game-breaking chunk of damage.

Well, on the off-chance anyone still reads these things, I thought I'd revisit an old champion and make some suggestions: Dr Strange is long overdue a rework. Here's a suggestion to make him a more buff version of his current self; hopefully blending utility, damage and sustainability. And whilst he doesn't have immunities (as such), he should work out to be pretty suicide-friendly; which is worth considering with these suggestions:
Dr Strange
Health 14179 Attack 2189
Passive Dr Strange is immune to Nullify, Stagger, Neutralise and Fate Seal.
Dr Strange benefits from +1400 Energy Resistance, but has zero base armour.
Dr Strange's exceptional Mystic training reduces the damage penalty of Recoil by 50%.
Nullify abilities When Dr Strange Nullifies any buff, he gains an indefinite Mystical Energy passive granting +20% Special Attack damage (max ten). Unless otherwise specified, Mystical Energy passives are consumed at the end of his Special Attacks.
If Dr Strange's Nullify fails because of an opponents Immunities, all of his Nullify abilities go on cooldown for ten seconds. After this time, any Nullify attempt that would be triggered instead inflicts a Weakness debuff for eight seconds, potency -40% Attack. Inflicting Weakness does not generate Mystical Energy.
Whilst opponent is Stunned Landing a heavy attack whilst the opponent is Stunned has an 80% chance to Nullify one buff, or to Stagger the opponent for 8s if no buff is active.
All Attacks: Dr Strange inflicts Energy damage on all his Attacks. Dr Strange does not gain power from being stuck, or striking his opponent. He passively gains power at a rate of one bar over nine seconds.
Mystic Blessings: Dr Strange invokes a series of Vishanti blessings to counter his opponents; starting with Oshtur's Refuge. Each lasts nine seconds and then cycles to the next blessing. By dashing back and holding block for 1.8s, Dr Strange can reset the timer on his current blessing. The timer can only be reset once per Blessing. Each Mystical Energy passive increases the potency of the benefits of Dr Strange's Mystical Blessings by 10%, to a maximum of +100%
Oshtur's Refuge (OR)
Gain an Armour Up buff granting +800 Armour and Critical Resistance
Gain a Block proficiency buff granting +800 Block proficiency
Reduce damage from all bleed effects to zero
Hoggoth's Wisdom (HW)
Gain a Fury buff granting +1095 Attack
Gain a Precision buff granting +550 Critical Rate
Attacks inflict a burst of Energy damage equal to 25% of damage dealt
Agamotto's Insight (AI)
Life Steal 504 Health on every hit
Opponent's defensive combat Power rate is reduced by 50%
Fourth light attack: Power Steal 5% of Opponents maximum Power
Signature - Counterspell: Whenever his opponent triggers a buff, Dr Strange automatically tries to Nullify it, with 80% chance of success. Additionally, each time Dr Strange rotates to the next Mystic blessing he has 80% chance to generate a Mystical Energy Passive
Special Attacks SP1 (Magic Missile): This missile cannot Miss the opponent. It gains an additional effect depending on Strange's current blessing:
OR: During Oshtur's Refuge, the SP1 does not benefit from or consume Mystical Energy, and has a 90% chance to Nullify a buff on a hit. If a buff is Nullified by this attack, Dr Strange gains a burst of 33% of a bar of Power
HW: SP1 gains Power Efficiency, reducing the Power cost by 35%, plus 5% (flat) per Mystical Energy passive. The attack benefits from +45% Special Damage and Critical Damage.
AI: 90% chance to inflict Power Burn on hit (burning 20% of Total Power, plus 2% (flat) per Mystical Energy passive)
SP2 (Faltinian Triplicate): Dr Strange conjures ethereal flashes of magical energy as if from nowhere; reducing the opponent's Evade Ability accuracy by 75%. Each successful hit has an additional effect, depending on Strange's blessing phase:
OR: Each hit has a 90% chance to Nullify a buff. If the opponent has no buffs to Nullify, each hit inflicts a burst of 1095 Direct Energy damage. This Damage is increased by 15% per Mystical Energy passive
HW: Each hit has an 80% chance to inflict Armour Break (-850 Armour for seven seconds). Each Mystical Energy passive Pauses the Armour Break debuffs for two seconds.
AI: The Special Attack grants no Power to the opponent. Each hit has a 75% chance to inflict a 15% Power Burn, inflicting damage proportionate to the Power lost. Each Mystical Energy passive increases the Power Burn by a flat 2.5%.
SP3 (The Prestige): This attack inflicts Fate Seal; nullifying all buffs and preventing any buffs from activating for ten seconds, plus one second per Mystical Energy passive. Additionally, Dr Strange's Fate Seal removes Cleanse, and reduces the opponent's Purify ability accuracy by 100%. This attack inflicts an additional effect depending on the Blessing active when it is used:
OR: Base duration of Fate Seal is doubled to 20 seconds
HW: Inflict Concussion (-80% ability accuracy) for the duration of Fate Seal
AI: Inflicts Power Lock on the opponent for the duration of Fate Seal
Synergies (new) Black Panther (Classic): Illuminati (Unique synergy, does not stack)
Any time Dr Strange nullifies an opponent's buff, he drains 6% of their Maximum power
Black Panther (Classic) starts the fight with three Panther's Might charges, and his maximum charge count rises to six.
Scarlet Witch (Classic) - Order and Chaos (Unique Synergy, does not stack):
Dr Strange gains +15% Attack when fighting #Villains
Scarlet Witch's buffs and debuffs are 20% more potent.
Guillotine - Blood and Magic (Unique synergy, does not stack):
Guillotine starts the fight with a True Strike buff for 12 seconds. The Fleur Dr Mal needs a ten-second cool-down after this buff expires, and then she can re-trigger it by dashing back and holding block for 2 seconds, consuming six souls.
Dr Strange gains +50% Potency on all Life Steal and Power Steal effects
Wong - Only by Default (Unique Synergy, does not stack):
Wong starts the fight with 33 Mystical Energy
Dr Strange gains +50% Ability Accuracy when fighting other Mystic champions
Well, I suspect the fact that I'm the last person posting on this thread (and all of the last five reworks are mine!) means it's time to let it die.
On the off-chance that any of the players, the mods or the devs wants to trawl for inspiration, I've generated a final list (below) of rework suggestions for champions who haven't yet been buffed. I thought they might at least make all these cool redesigns accessible for all, since trawling through 44 pages of comments is quite a stretch!
I've taken out the many suggestions for champions who've already been through the buff process, so the list is actually shorter than it has been in the past:
It would be easy to make him great. 3 armor breaks with a heavy. Every hit of a special has a chance to shatter armor (as Medusa) for each armor break Shattered armor reduced defense abilities at 100%. SP1 inflict an extra long armor break, SP2 Stun after the end. SP3: indefinite Armor Break. Ending a combo with medium attack has X% chance to give a rupture debuff, ending a combo with light attack has a X% chance to give the opponent a stagger passive. Sig ability: "fists are everywhere" - Sig increases Stun-Duration.
All of Civil Warrior's current abilities should remain as they are. These are just abilities I think should be added to his kit.
Always Active- Indefinite Armor Ups cannot be converted by dashing back and holding Block.
Dash Back and Hold Block for 1.2 Seconds- Personal Fury Buffs are paused for 3 seconds per indefinite Armor Up on Civil Warrior.
Special 1- If Civil Warrior already has 5 Armor Up Buffs before launching this Attack, convert one into an indefinite Armor Up. Up to 4 Armor Up Buffs can be converted this way.
Special 2- Pauses all Fury Buffs for 2 seconds for every active Armor up Buff. Max pause time: 10 seconds.
Arc Shield, Sig [1 - 200]- - Civil Warrior begins the fight with 1 indefinite Armor Up Buff. - Each indefinite Armor Up on Civil Warrior reduces Bleed and Poison Potency by [5 - 25]%. - Blocking during the opponent’s Special Attack inflicts them with a Passive Weakness, reducing their Attack Rating by [15 - 60]%. This is also true if Civil Warrior was Blocking prior to a Special Attack 3.
Passive - Flash’s intense military background, coupled with the alien symbiotic enhancement, grants him a 70% chance to Purify a Debuff. - The Venom Symbiote works with Flash’s training to reduce enemy Evasion chance by 50%. #Spider-Verse champions have their Evasion chance reduced by 75%.
Suppression Charges- Max 100 (Persistent Charges) - Over the course of the fight, the Venom symbiote becomes harder for Flash to control, and Agent Venom gains 1 Suppression charge every 3 seconds. Striking the opponent has a 40% chance to grant 2 Suppression charges. - Whenever Agent Venom is evaded, auto-blocked, or is caused to miss, gain 10 suppression charges. Cooldown: 4 seconds. - Gain 6 charges when struck or purifying a debuff. Cooldown: 2 seconds. - Each charge reduces attack rating by 0.2% and crit rating by 0.4%, while increasing Block Proficiency, Defensive Combat Power Rate, and Debuff Duration by 0.7%. - Gain twice as many Charges against Science champions, and half as many against Mutant champions. - When Agent Venom uses any Special Attack at 100 Suppression charges, or uses his Sp3, Flash loses control of the Venom symbiote, entering Berserk mode. Needs a better name due to the presence of Suppression Debuffs, I just can't find a good synonym to Suppression.
Berserk Mode - Berserk Mode lasts 30 seconds. +0.6 seconds for every Suppression Charge on activation. - Berserk Mode grants Agent Venom the following: - True Sense Buff, bypassing Miss and Auto-Block while active. - While attacking, reduce damage from all sources by 75%. - Fury Buff, granting +2% Attack Rating per Charge consumed. - Precision Buff, granting +1% Crit Rating per Charge consumed. - Cruelty Buff, granting +0.5% Crit Damage per Charge consumed. - Energize Buff granting +2% Combat Power Rate per Charge consumed. All Buffs last for the duration of Berserk Mode. - Striking the opponent pauses the Berserk timer for 1 second. - If a block is struck, or the opponent evades/autoblocks/causes a miss, Agent Venom is Stun Immune and has a 20% chance to go Unstoppable and Unblockable for 5 seconds. 100% chance if the opponent lands a Well-Timed Block. - 10% of damage dealt is returned as Health. - -80% Defensive Combat Power Rate, -40% Armor, and -50% Debuff potency. - Being struck has a 33.33% chance to grant Agent Venom an Unstoppable buff, lasting 3 seconds. - Defeating an opponent in Berserk Mode allows Agent Venom to start the next fight with 50 Suppression Charges. +25 Charges if the opponent was defeated with any Special Attack.
Heavy Attacks - While Suppressed, charging a Heavy Attack grants 1 Klyntar Rage Buff. For Each Klyntar Rage Buff, gain one extra Suppression Charge each time any amount of Suppression Charges are gained. Max 5 stacks. - While Berserk, charging a Heavy Attack consumes 1 Klyntar Rage Buff, duplicating all active personal Buffs on Agent Venom. Duplicated Buffs last 30 seconds.
Special Attacks - Reduce Enemy Evasion chance by 50%. - Each hit has a 75% chance to Bleed the opponent, dealing 220% of Agent Venom’s Attack as Direct Damage over 4 seconds.
Special Attack 2 - Final hit has a 100% chance to Incinerate the opponent, dealing 100% of Agent Venom’s Attack as Energy Damage over 8.50 seconds. This effect also removes Perfect Block Chance and reduces Block Proficiency by 50% while active.
Awakened Ability- Symbiosis, Sig [1-200] - As Flash and the Venom symbiote begin to bond, they begin working together more efficiently, reducing the potency of negative effects from both Suppression and Berserk by [40-75]%. - If one of Agent Venom’s buffs is Nullified or Staggered, the Venom symbiote has a [20-60]% chance to reactivate said buff when attacking the opponent.
Should probably mention, the Agent Venom Rework is one I've posted previously on an alt account, I've just tweaked some numbers and added some abilities.
Haven't made a buff concept in a while so I decided to make one. It may be a bit... overpowered but it doesn't matter too much. I'm just glad to be participating again and I really enjoy this thread. Thank you @Magrailothos , @LemoNot , and others for keeping this thread alive despite the lack of activity.

When fighting Mystic champions, gain up to the same amount in Energy Resistance.
dr strange is the worst...you guys see COWhale using him and the damage output...lol...what a joke
Yeah have been advocating for a buff for him. He's a Doctor in doing strange things but it doesn't show. Unlike Doom who is a master of mystical realm, Doctor Strange is meh. Look at Wong and the abilities that he has. Doctor Strange should be having more abilities than Wong. Doctor Strange is way ahead of Wong but now Wong is running the show ahead of him
I don’t think there’s much argument in the fact that Iron Fist is one of the worst mystic champs in the game. There is absolutely nothing to this character in terms of his abilities or specials. The specials have no secondary effects, are easily evadable (no defensive utility), and have nothing to them that makes iron fist useful in any realm of the contest. All of his abilities can fit on the screen without having to scroll, not that this is a bad thing, but take a look at exactly what these abilities are. Heavy attacks can nullify 3 specific buffs? When is this ever useful and why is it so specific? 50% chance on crits to armor break? Okay fine. And that’s it. That’s all iron fist is. Even his synergies can’t make him better because all they do is increase armor rating by 130. (Because we all know Iron Fist desperately needs that, lol) The contest has really outgrown Iron Fist and he’s one of those characters that can’t be played anywhere in the game aside for arena points. KABAM has done an amazing job with buffing lackluster characters and I can’t help but feel as though Iron Fist should be one of the next in line. Give Iron Fist some utility and maybe armor shatter as an ability and I’d be over the moon. Just give him anything so that I can use this guy again. What are the forums thoughts on characters from each class that should be buffed?
Yeah I agree. Back in the days when I was new to the game, he was my first 5* and I was excited but later my excitement died down when I started getting better 5* champs. And one thing I regret about is giving him my very first awarken gem in the game. Up until now for almost 3 years now his still stands at r2 and until he's buffed, he will remain there.
Organic Ice - Iceman’s Organic Ice form grants him full Immunity to Incinerate, Bleed and Poison. - Iceman takes no damage from Coldsnap or Frostbite effects.
Passive - For every Coldsnap effect on Iceman or the opponent, Iceman gains +329 Critical Rating. - While under a bar of Power, Iceman gains +25% Combat Power Rate for every Frostbite on the opponent.
Ice Armor - Max 5 Stacks - Iceman begins the fight with an indefinite layer of Ice Armor active. - Ice Armor increases his Armor Rating by 733.33, and increases Crit Resistance by 125. - If Iceman would lose more than 5% from a single source, the Ice Armor protects him from the blow, reducing health loss to 5%, then shatters one Ice Armor Buff. - If Iceman would become Stunned while his Ice Armor is active, the Ice Armor negates the effect, then shatters one Ice Armor Buff. - Once Iceman’s indefinite Ice Armor is shattered, it takes 15 seconds to reform. Iceman cannot gain Ice Armor during this cooldown.
Fourth Light Attack - While Coldsnap is active, this attack pauses the duration of Frostbite effects for 4 seconds. - 15% chance to refresh all active Coldsnap and Frostbite effects. Chance increases by a flat +5% for every Ice Armor active on Iceman.
Critical Hits - 40% chance to place a Passive Frostbite charge on the opponent, lasting 12 seconds and dealing 2841.55 Energy Damage on expiry. Chance increases to 80% while a Coldsnap is on the opponent. - If a Critical Hit places a Frostbite charge, active Ice Armor Buffs are paused for 5 seconds.
Heavy Attacks - If 5 or more Frostbite charges are active, Iceman is Unstoppable for the duration of his Heavy Attack. If struck while Unstoppable, this ability goes on cooldown for 20 seconds. - Knocking the opponent down with this attack causes all Frostbite charges to expire instantly and deal an additional 835.75 Energy Damage each. - For every 2 Frostbite charges detonated by a Heavy Attack, gain an Ice Armor Buff lasting 30 seconds. This last part feels somewhat counterintuitive to the rest of the abilities, but it feels right, & in my opinion the animation together with this ability fits best with the idea of amassing Ice Armor by “seizing” the frost formed on the opponent.
Special Attack 1 - Places a Coldsnap on the opponent, preventing Evade and dealing 4847.35 Energy Damage over 9 seconds. - Pause the duration of all Coldsnap effects on the opponent for 7 seconds. If 2 or more Coldsnap effects are active, also pause all Frostbite charges for 3.5 seconds.
Special Attack 2 - The first hit of this attack shatters all of Iceman’s Ice Armor. - Iceman converts his shattered Ice Armor into additional mass for his projectiles, gaining 5014.5 additional Attack for every Ice Armor shattered for this attack. - If 3+ Ice Armor Buffs were shattered, this Attack is Unblockable and gains a Prowess Passive, increasing Special Damage by 50%.
Special Attack 3 - Places a Coldsnap on the opponent, preventing Evade and dealing 10307.59 Energy Damage over 30 seconds. - This attack instantly reforms Ice Armor. If Ice Armor is already formed, gain a 45-second stack of Ice Armor instead. This Ice Armor can go over the stack limit, and increases the duration of Coldsnap effects by +6 seconds while it is active.
Absolute Zero, Sig [1-200] - Iceman harnesses his Cryokinesis to chill the air around him to freezing temperatures. This causes the opponent to start with a Coldsnap active, preventing Evade and dealing [3376.43 - 8208.4] Energy Damage over 18 seconds. - Iceman uses his powers to their fullest, increasing the Duration & Potency of Frostbite and Coldsnap by [15 - 30]% for every Ice Armor active on him. Additionally, Iceman can reform his Ice Armor 3 seconds faster.
Because I am completely stupid and like Taskmaster way too much, here's a ""minor"" rebalance of a Taskmaster Buff which I made 9 months ago, which you can find at the top of the page.
Only includes abilities I've altered/added, you can find the rest of the buff concept.
Anything You Can Do- Cross-Fight Ability - Defeating an opponent who has a synergy with Taskmaster grants Taskmaster that synergy’s effects for the rest of the quest. - Defeating an opponent of a certain class grants Taskmaster a corresponding Imitation effect for the rest of the quest. Max 1 Imitation of each class. - Taskmaster can pass this effect on to another champion on the pre-fight screen, losing the Imitation for himself in the process. The other champion can use this effect so long as they aren’t knocked out. - Skill Champions besides Taskmaster gain +1500 Critical Rating and +500 Critical Damage Rating while an Imitation is active.
Imitation- Pre-Fight/Cross-Fight Ability - Skill: Critical Hits have a 30% chance to apply a 7-second Critical Bleed, dealing 10% of the attack’s damage as Direct Damage and multiplying the Bleed’s Potency by the Critical Damage Multiplier. - Science: For each Debuff on the opponent, their Ability Power Rate is reduced by 15%. Max effect after 5 Debuffs. - Mystic: Heavy Attacks place a 11-second Neutralize Passive on the opponent, reducing opponents' Buff Ability Accuracy by -45%. Max Stacks: 3. - Cosmic: Buffs and Armor Break gain +25% Ability Accuracy and Duration. - Tech: Begin the fight with a 30-second Armor Up Buff, increasing Armor by 500 and decreasing incoming Bleed and Poison Potency by 20%. This Buff’s duration is reset whenever the opponent is knocked down. - Mutant: Taskmaster cannot replicate the genetically-based powers of Mutant opponents.
Special Attacks - Non-damaging Debuffs on the opponent are paused for the duration of the Special Attack.
Special Attack 1 - All hits of this attack deal an additional 1490 Direct Damage while any Exploit Weakness target is active or exploited. - For each Debuff active on either Taskmaster or the opponent, deal +30% Exploit Weakness damage on this Special Attack.
Special Attack 2 - First hit inflicts a non-stacking, 10-second Armor Break, reducing Armor Rating by 379.41. Reduces Armor by an additional 379.41 per Buff and Armor Break triggered on the opponent this fight. Max effect after 10 Buffs/Armor Breaks. - For each Debuff active on either Taskmaster or the opponent, gain +1788 Attack and +698 Critical Rating.
Signature Ability- Intuitive Pattern Recognition, Sig [1 - 200] - Each time Taskmaster successfully triggers Exploit Weakness, it places a Passive Concussion on his opponent, reducing their Ability Accuracy by [5.53 - 15]% for 11 seconds and reducing Taskmaster’s Exploit Weakness cooldown timer by 1 second. Max 5 stacks. - Increase the duration of all Concussion effects by [1.5 - 9] seconds. Taskmaster’s Passive Concussions each count as 1 non-damaging Debuff towards his abilities.* - Taskmaster’s second Medium Attack exploits any Exploit Weakness target with a -[2980 - 1788] damage penalty (unless the EW is a Medium Attack). Exploiting a weakness in this way consumes one Concussion and does not apply a new one.
*I made Taskmaster's Exploit Weakness refresh non-damaging Debuffs, for anyone who hasn't checked out my Buff Concept for him yet. Yeah, I just changed like half a line of text in the sig ability.
Changed Synergies (i.e., synergies I added which I am now changing very slightly):
Employee of the Month (Nick Fury)- Taskmaster- If the opponent would bypass Taskmaster’s Miss, Evade all direct hits for 1.5 seconds. Cooldown: 20 seconds. Nick Fury- Tactical Charges increase Fury's Perfect Block chance by 3%.
Incoming Mix-Up (Deadpool, Goldpool, Platpool, & X-Force Deadpool) Taskmaster- +50% Miss duration. Each time the opponent Misses, inflict an indefinite Taunt Debuff, reducing Attack Rating by 8% and increasing Special Activation chance by 14%. Max Stacks: 5. All Taunts are removed from the opponent if Taskmaster is knocked down. Deadpools- Basic Hits have a 55% chance to apply a 7-second Disorient Debuff on the opponent, reducing Defensive Ability Accuracy by 40% and Block Proficiency by 50%. Special Attacks detonate all active Disorients, dealing 35% of Deadpool's modified Attack for every Disorient removed. Disorients are paused for 5 seconds if Deadpool knocks the opponent down with a Heavy Attack.
Yeah I changed/added like 3 sentences to these synergies, rip lol.
If my buff idea is too OP somehow, then at the very minimum: - For Photographic Reflexes, "Unique Attacks" should count as all attacks Taskmaster or the opponent can throw, so Taskmaster's AA reduction from Photographic Reflexes is impactful. - Taskmaster should increase his Exploit Weakness damage by 10% for every 10% the opponent's Defensive AA is lowered, mirroring his increased Perfect Block chance on lowered Offensive AA. - Make Learn the Foe persist from fight to fight to some extent, so it can be a relevant ability outside of Debuff-Dense matchups. - Improve the UI for Photographic Reflexes & Learn the Foe, so the player can tell what's going on.
Mangog Buff Stuff Just spitballin' some stuff here, to see if any of these'll stick.
- Literally just multiply the "per Hatred" bonuses by 10. To put it into perspective, a rank 4, 6 star Mangog would have: - +1157.5 Attack Rating per Hatred (Sig 200) - +88.3 Critical Damage Rating per Hatred (Sig 200) - +2444.44 Energy Resistance per Hatred (should be toned down if Mangog were buffed like this tho) - +703.8 Armor Rating per Hatred - +633.7 Critical Rating per Hatred which would make the stat bonuses gained impactful in a fight, and maybe he wouldn't hit like a shaved silk scarf.
- Hate should be gained the same way Civil Warrior gains Armor Ups, not on a full combo.
- Special Attack 2 should steal ~25% of a bar of Power on each hit, maybe even Power Lock if it leaves the opponent at 0 bars. Just don't make it as needlessly complicated and ineffective as it is now. And don't make the Stun remove itself when struck.
- Apply an Infuriate Debuff while charging a Heavy Attack & Enraged. Also maybe grant Mangog some kind of protection while charging his Heavy (though, if the per Hatred thing gets added, 7038 Armor Rating might be the protection Mangog needs).
- Since #God is a tag, Mangog should probably be mega OP against anyone tagged with that. Start with max Hatred, Staggers & Unstoppable are Passive, something like that.
Also, since I'm already here, I should mention that the stats from my Iceman Buff are for a rank 4 6-star, not a rank 3. My bad.

First of all, Electro has a lot of potential (pun intended) to be a great character. I love his MCOC design and think there is a lot that can be done with him.
ABILITIES:
Always active:
Electro takes no damage from shock effects and each shock grants Electro bonus damage and +15% static shock damage.
Enemies shock attacks gain +75% accurary and duration.

Electro has a 10% chance per shock effect on the opponent to gain a shock effect on himself aswell.
This chance is 20% when fighting a Mystic opponent and 5% when fighting a Science opponent.
Shock effects on the opponent:
Electro's energy flows through the enemies body, making it harder for their muscles to react in time. For each shock effect on the opponent, reduce their evade chance by 25%.
This effect gets doubled when fighting #Spiderverse characters.
Special attacks:
All special attacks have a 100% chance to stun the opponent for 2 seconds + 1 second per power bar used for the special attack.

The fact they're both Trophy champs and Act-ending bosses means that (1) any buff they get needs to be simple - these are early-game bosses, and we mustn't over-complicate them. Also (2) any buff mustn't leave them overpowered. It's important that Trophy champs don't fall into some 'Beyond God Tier' category, as this leads to understandable resentment that they're so hard to obtain. Also (3) this shouldn't take up a lot of Developer time. We don't want to distract them from that all-important Moon Knight buff!
Ideally, we're looking for fairly simple (preferably automatic) mechanics, and champs that are useable but not excessively powerful either on defense or offense. On the other hand, Trophies should hold some value, surely? The response to pulling 6* Thanos shouldn't be "Oh no, I got Thanos. Wish I'd just got 6*shards instead.. They might have been useful...". So in an ideal world they should have some payoff; some reason to use them that doesn't feel like you're deliberately hampering yourself.
So below are my suggestions for low-effort buffs that might at least give Thanos and Kang some use for players who want to actually play with them; particularly for players who don't have an Apocalypse to synergize with Kang. Stats given are for 5/65 champions.
#Villain of the Contest
#Thanos army
#Psychic shielding
#XL (remove #Metal)
Passive
Start with 16% Power
Thanos is Immune to Power Drain, Steal and Burn
Heavy Attack
Heavy Attacks inflict Armour Break (-800 Armour, 8s), and gain +369 Attack per buff active on Thanos
When Attacked
When hit, Thanos has a 15% chance to generate a non-stacking Armour buff (900 Armour for eight seconds). The chance to proc Armour rises by a flat 5% per hit in the opponent's combo meter.
When Evaded
Thanos dislikes being made to look a fool. When Evaded, he has a 60% chance to generate a Fury buff (+1352 Attack, 7s, max 3 stacks). Whilst this Fury is active, further Evades have a 100% chance to generate a Fury buff.
Critical Hits
Thanos's base critical rate needs to be set to a more average 686 (previously 342)
Critical Hits have a 60% chance to generate a Prowess buff granting +10% Special Damage (max 10). Prowess buffs last 7s, and are refreshed when another Prowess buff would be generated. They are consumed at the end of any Special Attack.
Special Attacks:
If Thanos does not have a True Sense buff, generate a True Sense buff for 7 seconds.
If Thanos does have a True Sense buff, refresh it and also generate a Fury, Precision or Cruelty buff for 7 seconds.
- Fury: +1352 Attack
- Precision: +850 Critical Rating
- Cruelty: +850 Critical Damage Rating
- SP1: The second (beam) hit causes True Damage, and inflicts a Weakness debuff (-40% Attack) and a Slow debuff, each lasting 7s. Each Prowess extends these debuffs by 0.5s.
- SP2: This Attack causes True Damage, bypassing all resistances. It inflicts Rupture for 3252 damage over five seconds. For every two stacks of Prowess, inflict an additional Rupture.
- SP3: Inflicts Armour Break (-800 for 10s) and Slow, both lasting 20 seconds.
Signature:For every two stacks of Prowess, inflict an additional Armour Break.
When Attacking, Kang enters Conquerer mode. In this mode, he diverts power to weapons and targeting, granting himself a permanent +200 Critical Rating and Critical Damage Rating, and enhancing his SP2 Power Drain.
When defending, Kang enters Lord of Time mode. In this mode, Kang increases power to his defenses, granting +50% Potency to the Armour Up and Critical resistance benefits of his Armour.
Conqueror Armour
Kang has a permanent Armour Up buff granting +900 Armour and +450 Critical Resistance. This is enhanced in Lord of Time mode.
Kang's Armour buff cannot be Nullified or Staggered, and if removed, it has a 100% chance to return after ten seconds.
Kang's advanced technology makes him immune to Armour Shattered, and he has a 40% chance to resist an Armour Break. His self-repair systems reduce the duration and Potency of Armour Break by 60%
Whilst Kang's Armour Up buff is active, he gains Immunity to Shock, Coldsnap and Frostbite.
Special Attacks
Special Attacks grant Kang a Vigilance Passive for 7 seconds, and grant no Power to the opponent.
- SP1 - Inflicts Stun for 2.2 seconds, and a Suppression debuff for 10 seconds (Reduces the opponent's Defensive Combat Power Rate by 70%)
- SP2 - The first energy beam cannot be passively Evaded. The last hit stuns the opponent for 1.8 seconds, and has a 100% chance to drain some of the opponent's Max Power: 50% in Lord of Time mode, and 100% in Conquerer mode.
- SP3 - This potent attack inflicts Armour Break (-1200 Armour) and Heal Block debuffs for 15 seconds each, as well as Power Lock for eight seconds.
SignatureEach full bar of Power drained extends the Stun effect by 0.5 seconds.
Kang's Armour grants up to an additional +3900 Armour and +1300 Critical Resistance based on stored Power.
Additionally, Kang starts the match with a Vigilance Passive, and these Passives gain +50% Duration.

This is a moderate rework for Ms Marvel, aiming for a simple beginner-friendly champion with a bit more utility for later-game use. I'm aiming for 'useable enough to make her not be a waste of rank-up resources', rather than 'God-Tier', although I suspect if the numbers were tweaked up further, she could hit fairly hard. I'm also suggesting we keep Ms Marvel's design as it is; whilst Captain Marvel (classic) gets a full-on redesign, including a new skin - see below.
Attack 2572
Health 31398
Passive
Ms Marvel has a permanent Fury buff which grants from +643 to +2572 Attack based on stored Power. If removed, this buff returns after six seconds.
Poison Immunity
Blocking
Gain +2670 Energy Resistance.
Gain +2% Power when blocking an Energy-based Attack.
Holding block for 2.2 seconds removes any Damaging Energy debuffs, each granting a burst of 10% Power.
Signature
Start the match with a Seventh Sense buff, granting Vigilance, +212-636 Crit Rating, and 65% chance to Autoblock Special Attacks for 4s. This buff starts Paused, and Unpauses when either an Autoblock is triggered or a Miss is bypassed. If Autoblock triggers, it counts as a Well-Timed block; and all subsequent hits of the Special Attack are also Autoblocked.
If removed for any reason, the Seventh Sense buff returns after 18-36 seconds (fastest at high Sig) or whenever using an SP3.
Special Attacks
Special Attacks have an 80% chance to trigger a random Fury (+643 Attack), Cruelty (+450 Critical Damage) or Energise (+25% Combat Power Rate) buff for seven seconds.
SP1: This attack has True Damage, and inflicts up to a burst of +30-90% Direct damage, scaling up with the opponent's Armour rating.
SP2: Each hit inflicts an Armour Break (-1200 Armour for 12s). Critical hits inflict an additional Armour Break.
Targets immune to Armour Break instead suffer a Fragility debuff for each Armour Break that would have been inflicted (+750 Critical Damage rating when hit) for 12s.
SP3: Grants an additional Fury buff for 20 seconds (effects identical to her permanent Fury buff). Additionally, gain a Stopping Power buff which removes any Unstoppable buffs for 10s when striking the opponent (this is effective through block).
I'll risk double-posting, after the first version went to adjudication heaven...
Thanks to the introduction of the MCU version of Captain Marvel, we have two almost identical-looking versions of Captain Marvel. Captain Marvel (Movie) is great. Captain Marvel (Classic) is... not so great...
But there's a comics-canon route we can take when reworking the original (Classic) version to make her a genuinely useful and genuinely different third CM for MCOC - She needs to become..... Binary!
(She may need some new animations...)
Attack 2572
Health 31398
At the start of the match
Start the match with a Power Gain buff granting 50% of a bar of Power over 12s.

This version of Rhino is what Kabam would call a momentum-based champion; like Dragon Man and Annihilus. He's intended to be extremely simple to play, although with the potential to be more rewarding in the hands of a skilled player. The best playstyle is going to largely involve charging your opponent into the corner and keeping them there; and if you line up the debuffs right, he should have an impressive ability to spam Heavy attacks when he does. He'll also have access to a fairly hard-hitting SP2 if he works for it a little.
Attack 2346
Health 38837
(health pool increased a little)
Passive
Rhino Armour grants +1100 Physical Resistance and +550 Critical Resistance. When struck with a Critical Hit, Rhino reduces the opponent's critical damage rating by 60%.

Ghulk is a crowd-pleasing (literally!) champion with some interesting abilities; and some less interesting ones. Really he just needs a minor rework: the basics of his Crowd Excitement mechanics work fine, although could do with a numbers adjustment. The main issue with Crowd Excitement is that it rewards aggressive gameplay, but Ghulk doesn't have any useful means to stop the opponent gaining power, or make them consume it. (A five second Enervate on his SP2 really does nothing to help him control the match!)
So he needs some mechanism like Overseer's Taunt, to enable aggressive play without taking an SP3 to the face. He also needs a bit more opportunity to access to his damage-boosting SMASH/Crowd Frenzy abilities, and some actual utility. Hulk shouldn't really be about Enervating or Heal Blocking, anyway. He should be breaking things...
Attack 2459
Health 33,837
Passive
Hulk is immune to all Poisons, Exhaustion and Fatigue.
Adoration of the Masses
The basic mechanics of Hulk gaining and losing Crowd Excitement are unchanged.
When Crowd Excitement hits 100, it locks for 9 seconds, then resets to 70
When Ghulk is Taunted or Infuriated, Crowd Excitement does not fall over time.
Effects:
- Ghulk gains up to +1623 Attack based on Crowd Excitement.
- For every point of Crowd Excitement, the opponent has +0.5% chance to throw a Special Attack
- When Crowd Excitement is above 80, Ghulk is immune to Power Lock, Enervate, Suppression and Special Lock effects.
- Whilst Crowd Excitement is at 100, all of Ghulk's attacks SMASH.
Crowd Excitement potency and the lock duration at 100 have been increased slightly; and now also causes a passive Taunt-like effect, encouraging Ghulk's opponents to throw Specials and keep their Power Bars low. Crowd Excitement also grants Gladiator Hulk a new (unique) Immunity to having his beloved Special Attacks held back by killjoys like Professor X, Nimrod and Psylocke.SMASH Attacks
Ghulk has a 5% chance to trigger SMASH on each attack. This is increased by a flat +10% when he is affected by Taunt, Infuriate, or when Face Me! is active.
SMASH abilities are unaffected by Ability Accuracy Reduction.
Every 12 seconds, Ghulk gets angry and prepares to SMASH on his next attack. Additionally, Hulk gets angry when he is caused to Miss, or when the opponent Dodges or Evades his strikes, with a 100% chance to ready a SMASH.
Effects:
- SMASH lasts for the full duration of Heavy or Special Attacks.
- Gain +1623 Attack
- SMASH Attacks are passively Unstoppable.
- If a Heavy Attack SMASHes, it inflicts Armour Break (-800 Armour for 8s), and increases Crowd Excitement by 15
SMASH now triggers a little more often, inflicts a little more damage, and is readied as an immediate response to being Evaded or Missing an opponent. This will make Ghulk significantly more threatening on defense against attackers using those strategies.Face Me!
Ghulk is enraged by opponents using cowardly passive damage-over-time effects, triggering Face Me! Being a natural contestant, he accepts the passive effects of the Battlerealm itself (e.g. Flare, Bane, Life Transfer) without these triggering his rage.
Face Me! is also triggered at any time whilst Ghulk is Taunted or Infuriated.
Effects:
- Gain +3278 Attack
- Gain +245 Critical Rating
- Instantly heal 70% of all damage taken
- Opponent is 70% more likely to trigger a Special Attack, in panic.
Face Me has a slightly higher Attack bonus and a modest crit rate increase that should be helpful given Ghulk's low basic Crit Rating. Opponents that trigger Face Me will have a very high chance of throwing Specials, thanks to the additional passive Taunt effect of Crowd Excitement. Face Me! will also be triggered quite a bit more widely, thanks to the existence of nodes and champions inflicting Taunt or Infuriate. To revisit an old axiom: Don't make him angry...Signature:
Ghulk's existing Sig, Pollice Verso (Gain a Regeneration or Fury passive) is unchanged.
Additionally, when Crowd Excitement hits 100, it is locked for an additional 2.5-5 seconds before starting to fall.
Since Ghulk's kit is based around Crowd Excitement, this seemed a sensible way to improve that mechanic, and help Hulk 'cash in' on the burst of enhanced damage, and the access to Unstoppable, Armour-breaking Heavy attacks that it gives him. At max Sig, it'll last 14 seconds, compared to the old seven seconds.
Special Attacks
All Special Attacks that strike the opponent inflict Concussion, lasting for 5s per bar of Power spent. This reduces ability accuracy by 55%. Concussion debuffs stack up to three, and expire one at a time.
SP1: 75% chance to inflict Stun for 1.8s. If this attack hits, Ghulk gains an Energise passive (+33% combat Power for 18s, max two stacks)
SP2: Inflicts Armour Break, -1200 Armour for nine seconds. If this attack SMASHes, it is a guaranteed Critical Hit, and an additional stack of Armour Break is inflicted.
SP3: This attack inflicts an additional stack of Concussion.
Set Crowd Excitement to 100, or reset the timer if already at 100.
This attacks gains +2459 Attack if it SMASHes.
So hopefully, having access to fairly long-lasting Concussion effects, Armour Breaks, a passive Taunt and Immunity to Power Lock/Special Lock will provide Ghulk a bit of the utility he was lacking. He'll have more frequent access to Face Me! when he's Taunted or Infuriated. Energise will help him throw more Special Attacks to help keep his Crowd Excitement high (although I've dropped his Stun chance slightly, to prevent him eternally stun-locking his opponent). And if he can throw an SP2 during his Crowd Frenzy phase (when all his attacks SMASH), it'll be Unstoppable, a guaranteed Critical Hit; have +3246 Attack, and inflict Concussion and two Armour Breaks; which should combine for a decent, if not game-breaking chunk of damage.

Nullify abilities
When Dr Strange Nullifies any buff, he gains an indefinite Mystical Energy passive granting +20% Special Attack damage (max ten). Unless otherwise specified, Mystical Energy passives are consumed at the end of his Special Attacks.
If Dr Strange's Nullify fails because of an opponents Immunities, all of his Nullify abilities go on cooldown for ten seconds.

Wong - Only by Default (Unique Synergy, does not stack):On the off-chance that any of the players, the mods or the devs wants to trawl for inspiration, I've generated a final list (below) of rework suggestions for champions who haven't yet been buffed. I thought they might at least make all these cool redesigns accessible for all, since trawling through 44 pages of comments is quite a stretch!
I've taken out the many suggestions for champions who've already been through the buff process, so the list is actually shorter than it has been in the past:
Nothing spectacular just allow him to keep true accuracy while in frenzy but below 10 monster mass.
Too soon? 😂😂

First hit has an 100% chance to inflict an Exhaustion debuff, lowering Critical Damage Rating by 192.7 for 10 seconds
Second hit has a 50% chance to Stun the opponent for 1.5 seconds. +25% chance against Mystic and #Villain
Special 2
Last hit has an 100% chance to inflict Armor Break, lowering Armor Rating by 333.6 for 14 seconds
Special 3
100% chance to Stun the opponent for 3 seconds
Inflict an indefinite Taunt Debuff, lowering Attack Rating by 20% and making it 70% more likely that the opponent will launch a Special Attack
Signature Ability - Last Stand
The chance to Perfectly Block all damage increases by up to 51.44% based on lost health, providing hope when Cap needs it most.
Against Mystic and #Villain champions, +35% Combat Power Rate
Gain up to +1344 Physical Resistance against non-critical hits based on lost health. When fighting Mystic champions, gain up to the same amount in Energy Resistance.
Organic Ice
- Iceman’s Organic Ice form grants him full Immunity to Incinerate, Bleed and Poison.
- Iceman takes no damage from Coldsnap or Frostbite effects.
Passive
- For every Coldsnap effect on Iceman or the opponent, Iceman gains +329 Critical Rating.
- While under a bar of Power, Iceman gains +25% Combat Power Rate for every Frostbite on the opponent.
Ice Armor - Max 5 Stacks
- Iceman begins the fight with an indefinite layer of Ice Armor active.
- Ice Armor increases his Armor Rating by 733.33, and increases Crit Resistance by 125.
- If Iceman would lose more than 5% from a single source, the Ice Armor protects him from the blow, reducing health loss to 5%, then shatters one Ice Armor Buff.
- If Iceman would become Stunned while his Ice Armor is active, the Ice Armor negates the effect, then shatters one Ice Armor Buff.
- Once Iceman’s indefinite Ice Armor is shattered, it takes 15 seconds to reform. Iceman cannot gain Ice Armor during this cooldown.
Fourth Light Attack
- While Coldsnap is active, this attack pauses the duration of Frostbite effects for 4 seconds.
- 15% chance to refresh all active Coldsnap and Frostbite effects. Chance increases by a flat +5% for every Ice Armor active on Iceman.
Critical Hits
- 40% chance to place a Passive Frostbite charge on the opponent, lasting 12 seconds and dealing 2841.55 Energy Damage on expiry. Chance increases to 80% while a Coldsnap is on the opponent.
- If a Critical Hit places a Frostbite charge, active Ice Armor Buffs are paused for 5 seconds.
Heavy Attacks
- If 5 or more Frostbite charges are active, Iceman is Unstoppable for the duration of his Heavy Attack. If struck while Unstoppable, this ability goes on cooldown for 20 seconds.
- Knocking the opponent down with this attack causes all Frostbite charges to expire instantly and deal an additional 835.75 Energy Damage each.
- For every 2 Frostbite charges detonated by a Heavy Attack, gain an Ice Armor Buff lasting 30 seconds.
This last part feels somewhat counterintuitive to the rest of the abilities, but it feels right, & in my opinion the animation together with this ability fits best with the idea of amassing Ice Armor by “seizing” the frost formed on the opponent.
Special Attack 1
- Places a Coldsnap on the opponent, preventing Evade and dealing 4847.35 Energy Damage over 9 seconds.
- Pause the duration of all Coldsnap effects on the opponent for 7 seconds. If 2 or more Coldsnap effects are active, also pause all Frostbite charges for 3.5 seconds.
Special Attack 2
- The first hit of this attack shatters all of Iceman’s Ice Armor.
- Iceman converts his shattered Ice Armor into additional mass for his projectiles, gaining 5014.5 additional Attack for every Ice Armor shattered for this attack.
- If 3+ Ice Armor Buffs were shattered, this Attack is Unblockable and gains a Prowess Passive, increasing Special Damage by 50%.
Special Attack 3
- Places a Coldsnap on the opponent, preventing Evade and dealing 10307.59 Energy Damage over 30 seconds.
- This attack instantly reforms Ice Armor. If Ice Armor is already formed, gain a 45-second stack of Ice Armor instead. This Ice Armor can go over the stack limit, and increases the duration of Coldsnap effects by +6 seconds while it is active.
Absolute Zero, Sig [1-200]
- Iceman harnesses his Cryokinesis to chill the air around him to freezing temperatures. This causes the opponent to start with a Coldsnap active, preventing Evade and dealing [3376.43 - 8208.4] Energy Damage over 18 seconds.
- Iceman uses his powers to their fullest, increasing the Duration & Potency of Frostbite and Coldsnap by [15 - 30]% for every Ice Armor active on him. Additionally, Iceman can reform his Ice Armor 3 seconds faster.
Only includes abilities I've altered/added, you can find the rest of the buff concept.
Anything You Can Do- Cross-Fight Ability
- Defeating an opponent who has a synergy with Taskmaster grants Taskmaster that synergy’s effects for the rest of the quest.
- Defeating an opponent of a certain class grants Taskmaster a corresponding Imitation effect for the rest of the quest. Max 1 Imitation of each class.
- Taskmaster can pass this effect on to another champion on the pre-fight screen, losing the Imitation for himself in the process. The other champion can use this effect so long as they aren’t knocked out.
- Skill Champions besides Taskmaster gain +1500 Critical Rating and +500 Critical Damage Rating while an Imitation is active.
Imitation- Pre-Fight/Cross-Fight Ability
- Skill: Critical Hits have a 30% chance to apply a 7-second Critical Bleed, dealing 10% of the attack’s damage as Direct Damage and multiplying the Bleed’s Potency by the Critical Damage Multiplier.
- Science: For each Debuff on the opponent, their Ability Power Rate is reduced by 15%. Max effect after 5 Debuffs.
- Mystic: Heavy Attacks place a 11-second Neutralize Passive on the opponent, reducing opponents' Buff Ability Accuracy by -45%. Max Stacks: 3.
- Cosmic: Buffs and Armor Break gain +25% Ability Accuracy and Duration.
- Tech: Begin the fight with a 30-second Armor Up Buff, increasing Armor by 500 and decreasing incoming Bleed and Poison Potency by 20%. This Buff’s duration is reset whenever the opponent is knocked down.
- Mutant: Taskmaster cannot replicate the genetically-based powers of Mutant opponents.
Special Attacks
- Non-damaging Debuffs on the opponent are paused for the duration of the Special Attack.
Special Attack 1
- All hits of this attack deal an additional 1490 Direct Damage while any Exploit Weakness target is active or exploited.
- For each Debuff active on either Taskmaster or the opponent, deal +30% Exploit Weakness damage on this Special Attack.
Special Attack 2
- First hit inflicts a non-stacking, 10-second Armor Break, reducing Armor Rating by 379.41. Reduces Armor by an additional 379.41 per Buff and Armor Break triggered on the opponent this fight. Max effect after 10 Buffs/Armor Breaks.
- For each Debuff active on either Taskmaster or the opponent, gain +1788 Attack and +698 Critical Rating.
Signature Ability- Intuitive Pattern Recognition, Sig [1 - 200]
- Each time Taskmaster successfully triggers Exploit Weakness, it places a Passive Concussion on his opponent, reducing their Ability Accuracy by [5.53 - 15]% for 11 seconds and reducing Taskmaster’s Exploit Weakness cooldown timer by 1 second. Max 5 stacks.
- Increase the duration of all Concussion effects by [1.5 - 9] seconds. Taskmaster’s Passive Concussions each count as 1 non-damaging Debuff towards his abilities.*
- Taskmaster’s second Medium Attack exploits any Exploit Weakness target with a -[2980 - 1788] damage penalty (unless the EW is a Medium Attack). Exploiting a weakness in this way consumes one Concussion and does not apply a new one.
*I made Taskmaster's Exploit Weakness refresh non-damaging Debuffs, for anyone who hasn't checked out my Buff Concept for him yet. Yeah, I just changed like half a line of text in the sig ability.
Changed Synergies (i.e., synergies I added which I am now changing very slightly):
Employee of the Month (Nick Fury)-
Taskmaster- If the opponent would bypass Taskmaster’s Miss, Evade all direct hits for 1.5 seconds. Cooldown: 20 seconds.
Nick Fury- Tactical Charges increase Fury's Perfect Block chance by 3%.
Incoming Mix-Up (Deadpool, Goldpool, Platpool, & X-Force Deadpool)
Taskmaster- +50% Miss duration. Each time the opponent Misses, inflict an indefinite Taunt Debuff, reducing Attack Rating by 8% and increasing Special Activation chance by 14%. Max Stacks: 5. All Taunts are removed from the opponent if Taskmaster is knocked down.
Deadpools- Basic Hits have a 55% chance to apply a 7-second Disorient Debuff on the opponent, reducing Defensive Ability Accuracy by 40% and Block Proficiency by 50%. Special Attacks detonate all active Disorients, dealing 35% of Deadpool's modified Attack for every Disorient removed. Disorients are paused for 5 seconds if Deadpool knocks the opponent down with a Heavy Attack.
Yeah I changed/added like 3 sentences to these synergies, rip lol.
If my buff idea is too OP somehow, then at the very minimum:
- For Photographic Reflexes, "Unique Attacks" should count as all attacks Taskmaster or the opponent can throw, so Taskmaster's AA reduction from Photographic Reflexes is impactful.
- Taskmaster should increase his Exploit Weakness damage by 10% for every 10% the opponent's Defensive AA is lowered, mirroring his increased Perfect Block chance on lowered Offensive AA.
- Make Learn the Foe persist from fight to fight to some extent, so it can be a relevant ability outside of Debuff-Dense matchups.
- Improve the UI for Photographic Reflexes & Learn the Foe, so the player can tell what's going on.
Just spitballin' some stuff here, to see if any of these'll stick.
- Literally just multiply the "per Hatred" bonuses by 10. To put it into perspective, a rank 4, 6 star Mangog would have:
- +1157.5 Attack Rating per Hatred (Sig 200)
- +88.3 Critical Damage Rating per Hatred (Sig 200)
- +2444.44 Energy Resistance per Hatred (should be toned down if Mangog were buffed like this tho)
- +703.8 Armor Rating per Hatred
- +633.7 Critical Rating per Hatred
which would make the stat bonuses gained impactful in a fight, and maybe he wouldn't hit like a shaved silk scarf.
- Hate should be gained the same way Civil Warrior gains Armor Ups, not on a full combo.
- Special Attack 2 should steal ~25% of a bar of Power on each hit, maybe even Power Lock if it leaves the opponent at 0 bars. Just don't make it as needlessly complicated and ineffective as it is now. And don't make the Stun remove itself when struck.
- Apply an Infuriate Debuff while charging a Heavy Attack & Enraged. Also maybe grant Mangog some kind of protection while charging his Heavy (though, if the per Hatred thing gets added, 7038 Armor Rating might be the protection Mangog needs).
- Since #God is a tag, Mangog should probably be mega OP against anyone tagged with that. Start with max Hatred, Staggers & Unstoppable are Passive, something like that.
Also, since I'm already here, I should mention that the stats from my Iceman Buff are for a rank 4 6-star, not a rank 3. My bad.
