Since I just received a 6 stars Masacre, I decided to study him and with my joy I discovered that he has 2 amazing abilities that SHOULD reduce the opponent defensive.
The first one reduce the defensive ability of the opponent by 50% for as long as they are under a debuff effect. (when blocked...what should that mean?)
The second one, reduce the defensive ability by 50% when landing a special attack 1 that apply a disoriented debuff.
So supposely you should have a 100% ability reduction when the opponent has a debuff and has been disoriented (that is also a debuff so that should be enough to get 100% ability reduction).
You may say, yes but the first ability reduction it works only when the enemy is blocking. Wrong, it doesn't work. I tested Masacre's ability reduction against the Thing from the event at Master difficultly. The Thing had some incinerate and disoriented debuff applied and nevertheless, when my opponent (The Thing) was blocking my attacks, he was continuing gaining rock stacks. Fighting with an awakened Gwenpool against the Thing instead, after 50 hits (or something like that), the Thing was not getting anymore rock stacks when blocking or receiving a hit. I want to remember that gwenpool's awakened ability reduces the opponent defensive ability based on our combo meter.
So if I am missing something about how the Masacre ability reduction works, please let me know.
I also tested masacre against wolverine and he continued to generate regeneration, I tested it against Cable and when placing a bleeding debuff on him, he applied me a degeneration debuff as normally he does, so no ability reduction in both the cases. Same thing against Morningstar. I will do further testes but at now, to me it just seems like the Masacre ability reduction's ability is not working at all under any circumstances. Isn't that a bug?
