They didn't really rework him. His "buff" was the newly released champ adjustment thing they announced which caused such an outrage on the forum. Kabam said it would be small adjustments and, at least for Maw, they were true to their word. Being true to their word may be a disappointment for Maw owners in this case and, given their history, may have been an accident. I am still waiting for them to keep their word that Dr Strange would remain a top champ after his nerf...
Hey everyone, today I decided to research and delve into the buff given to the champion known as Ebony Maw.
Ebony Maw Champion Description: “A master of manipulation and overall evil genius, Ebony Maw is Thanos’s most trusted lieutenant, never failing him even once. Focusing on his strong telekinetic abilities rather than raw physical strength, Ebony Maw curves and bends the environment around him with ease. Additionally, his superhumanly persuasive voice allows him to sway even the strongest minds.” Kabam Vydious.
To summarize, Ebony Maw is described as a genius, a killer, and the most trusted lutenant of Thanos.
Looking at his stats and abilities, Ebony Maw does not live up to the legacy set by comics, and now the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe).
A while back Kabam announced a buff that was meant to improve the lackluster performance of Ebony Maw, but unfortunately that did not work out as well as Kabam probably thought it would. From the description of Ebony Maw, summoners speculated that maybe his deterioration would have a longer timer, and higher damage, some even thought he might have damage high enough to compete with the other lieutenants of Thanos, but alas that did not happen. Ebony Maws damage was given a slight improvement, and the amount of charges he could attain from missions was bumped to five. Sure it was an improvement, but even after the buff Ebony Maw was left in his relatively useless self. Is this really what Ebony Maw deserves? Shouldn’t he have at least been boosted to the point of overpowering the weakest of the black orders lieutenants? Ebony Maw deserves a buff, and I hope someday soon Kabam realizes this, and gives Ebony the stats that should so rightfully be his. When the next buff vote is raised, I hope Ebony Maw makes the list. Buff Ebony Maw! Hail Thanos! I would love to hear all of your thoughts on Ebony Maw, and if you think he deserves a buff.
I had posted the same when they had buffed Ebony and created and the tag line fear the maw. Most of the charecters are no way near to how we read in comics.
Ebony Maw is a fearsome attacker too and not just a defender, game team needs to realise this.
