A Pool of Venom in the Contest

I really like Deadpool. I really like Venom. When I heard a champion called Venompool was in the contest, I thought he would be a very good champion with the components of both champions. But it turns out his abilities are mediocre. I hope that poor Venompool could be buffed in the near future. Here’s my idea on how I would rework Venompool.
My Champion Rework: Venompool
Passive:
- The powers of the Venom symbiote combined with Deadpool’s healing factor lets Venompool passively heal (x) health per second. Beats awakening OG me, right?
- Venom and Deadpool struggle to take control of their shared body, creating two modes based on who’s currently in control. No one will sssstop me from killing Sssspider-man!!! Hey! Let me do the talking!
- Venompool starts in Deadpool mode.
Deadpool Mode:
- Increases regeneration rate by (x)%
- All hits have an 40% change to gain prowess, increasing special damage by 15%. Critical hits increase this chance by 100%. Max stacks: 20. Prowess buffs are lost when switching modes.
- If fighting X-Men or X-Force champions, Venompool gains +50% attack and +50% ability accuracy
Venom Mode:
- Increases critical rating by (x)%
- All hits have a 60% chance to inflict bleed on the opponent, dealing (x) damage over 8 seconds. Critical hits increase this chance by 100%.
- If fighting Spider-verse or Sinister 6 champions, Venompool gains true accuracy and +100% bleed damage
Heavy attacks:
- Landing this attack makes Venompool switch modes. Yessss! Control will be mine!!!! Don’t do it! Don’t you like Deadpool mode?
When switching modes:
- If Venompool switches to Deadpool mode and he has a fury buff, Venompool converts it into a taunt debuff on the opponent, reducing their damage by 25% and increasing their chance to activate a special attack by 80% for 15 seconds. Man, why is Venom so angry all the time?
- If Venompool switches to Venom mode and there is a taunt on the opponent, Venompool converts it into a fury buff on himself, increasing attack by (x) for 15 seconds. Enough with those foolissssh taunts!!!
Special 1: Symbiotic Rage
* We are back, Ssssspider-man! Prepare to face our wrath!!!!!
- Venompool switches to Venom mode.
- Each hit has an 80% chance to consume enemy buffs, converting them into 5% power and passive furies, each increasing attack by (x). These furies are lost when Venompool switches modes. Delicioussss! Give us more!!!!
Special 2: Deadpoo... I mean Venompool’s Break Dance
* While my pal Venom is having his rest, I’ll light up the dance floor with my new swords and my sweet moves!
- Venompool switches to Deadpool mode.
- Venompool’s blades are made of carbonadium, inflicting heal block on the opponent, preventing healing for 18 seconds.
- If Venompool finishes his dance, he heals 20% health and gains a precision buff, increasing critical rating by (x) for 8 seconds. Time to make some moves!
Special 3: The Combined Forces of Venom and Deadpool
* Venompool drags his opponent towards him, preparing to eat him when a phone call interrupts the special attack. They still shoot and pummel their opponent, though.
- 100% chance to inflict bleed, dealing (x) damage over 10 seconds
- Venom and Deadpool finally decided to settle their differences for once, combining the Venom and Deadpool modes into Venompool Mode for 25 seconds. Hi- Five, buddy! We are not buddiesssss!!!

I thought it was awesome, and honestly way BETTER than how his character is made/designed.
He's way less useful now. If you land him early on as a 4*, he's sustainable enough to be useful in Story Quests up to the end of Act 4, but not much past that.
His special 2 will be the same but before he dances, he will throw his swords at his opponent (one at a time)
His special 3 will be the same but he will shoot thrice and then maul the opponent for a while
By all means, suggest some animation changes, but be aware that as a rule, very few of the champions who've been reworked in the last year have had any of their animations changed; presumably because that requires more expensive coding time from the development team. So they're a lot less likely to happen:
These champs have been buffed/reworked with no change made in their animations:
- Luke Cage
- Red Hulk
- She-Hulk
- Gamora
- Venom
- Carnage
(These buffs a little older, but also no change to animations)
- Sentry
- Civil Warrior
- Winter Soldier
- Punisher
These champs have had buffs which included animation changes:
- Spider-Gwen
Howard the Duck also got an animation change; but this was just a comedy change to receiving an SP3 only. Possibly developed in someone's free time?
Nice ideas @SkyBlueGaming !
