WILL CULL BE NERFED?!

Hi guys over at Kabam

So I have just spent the first round of arena grinding for Senór Obsidian, and have noticed alot of hype regarding his damage output, and theres a growing concern and consensus that he will surely be nerfed shortly, and that those Cull owners will likely hear the dreaded "....not working as intended".

Can someone please clarify if all is well with this champion, before I spend the second round grinding, spending units etc.

Thanks

Nerfs don’t happen anymore.

They wont tell you that.

Id wager theres a pretty good chance his damage output will lowered though.

He'll get a silent nerf after the sales. It probably won't be too impactful but it'll be something.

My decision on wether to grind for round 2 will highly rely on if he is working as intended as of now....also gives me fodder for later if needed. Please can we get a moderators input on this

He doesn't have any higher damage output than some if the other champs out there plus it's not immediate damage and takes time. He needs 10 charges to have high damage and that could be 5 or 6 fights at least. He won't be a great defensive placement either. Ghost is much more powerful out of the gate. Quit creating posts like these. All it does is brings out negative attention and tinfoil hat people who never know what they are talking about.

Not interested in the debate the OP started but you are severely underestimating his damage potential.

It won't be a nerf. It'll be "he isn't working as intended" or a "small bug".. You know, the usual stuff we're fed.

Demonzfyre

Do you have him? Have you used him? Go ahead, take him into LoL and tell me how it goes. Take him to ROL and see how it is.
Aegon can clear LoL by himself after a few fights.
Domino can take WS down in 18 hits.
Ghost can hit harder and faster.

Point is, yes he has high damage output but it's not immediate and takes ramping up. Its not game breaking damage either.

Cull obsidian hits a lot harder 4:55 no suicides no class advantage 25k mediums

He just got added to the tournament and you talk about nerfing him....🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

BigDog34

It's because they don't test them. They give the content creators program to look over them and of course they won't say they're OP.

Adub80

Why would an immediate nerf be unbelievable? And yes, Ive had the problem of ranking a champ, and then that champ being nerfed beyond recognition....so I want to know from the offset if this champ is CURRENTLY working as intended....

Fred_Joeity

I sort of doubt they’ll nerf him directly, but I can see a lot of armour break immunity coming soon...

They haven't nerfed anyone since 12.0. No need to worry.

DalBot

That's.... not true

Demonzfyre

Who? Drax and AA weren't nerfs. Hela was a synergy fix. @DalBot

You making this thread is low key raising the chance

arsjum

Yes, I have him but only as a 4* star, so can’t take him to LOL. I’m aware of his limitations but your claim that he needs 10 charges to do high damage output is false. 10 charges with rout make him insane. But he’s already a beastly attacker after acquiring 3-4 charges.

V1PER1987

Do you really expect the mods to come on here and say “even after designing this champ for months, we decided in the couple days after release he’s simply too powerful and we’re going to nerf him”? That’s never happened ever.

Worknprogress

I'd be surprised bc he definitely has some serious limitations. If you can't place armor break, it makes fight MUCH harder with him. I was testing him on the debuff immune spidey path in act 5 and it was horrible.

Demonzfyre

No armor breaks equals low damage. People see ideal fights on YouTube and then go crazy thinking he'll be nerfed or should be. Absolutely insane.

Demonzfyre

I see so he can't do LoL. Not great in ROL. Cant fight debuff immune. Yep, you're right. Super insane. Nerf him now.

Worknprogress

Yep. Debuff immune fights, evade champs/nodes before he has enough charges, thing, etc... and he does horribly. For standard run of the mill paths, he's a monster, but he's by no means as OP as people are acting

arsjum

When did I say anything about nerfing? If you want to have a meaningful debate, stick to what I said, not what you imagine I said.

He can do LoL. He's great in RoL. He can fight debuff immune. Doesn't mean he's great at everything. Never said so. Once again, I said previously I was aware of his limitations.

Doesn't prove your prior claims.

Tiger360

I mean if there is some sort of nerf there will likely be an outrage, like when the AI was altered technically nerfing Ghost. Also, I still feel like there are harder hitters which have not been nerfed.

I'm closing this down as it borderlines conspiracy as this hasn't been any official chatter on our end.
