Masacre is very underrated!!!

Why is nobody talking about this dude???? Once his bat is ignited, he DESTROYS opponents!! Why don't people appreciate him? His bat ignition is not that hard to start as well.

He isn’t under appreciated, it’s just that there is stiff competition in the skill class; among all the classes overall, I’m guessing he’s thought to be around slightly above average.

He’s too impractical to play in certain scenarios due to his extremely aggressive playstyle to maintain incinerates and he doesn’t have much utility, he’s super fun and has some really solid damage, but he’s nit a champ I’d pick over huge portions of my roster

I love just dash back intercepting. I’ll either get the intercept or hit their block, but either way it’s a win win. Love doing the same with Sentinel too.

There’s a science champ called human torch haven’t you heard?

Ya i know Human Torch bruh

I’m with you on the Masacre bandwagon. I have a 5* r5 sig 200 and if I pull a skill t5cc I’m very tempted to take my 6* to r3. He’s definitely in the top 5 FUN champs to play and he’s certainly near the top of the skill class...he’s not Ægon or Fury or Blade but he’s as good or better than the rest of the skill champs. Most importantly, he’s fun to play, he’s unique, he’s easy to play, he kills things fast, he does great damage even against incinerate immune opponents and he has great synergies with other great champs. What’s not to like?

My problem with Massacre is his limitations
For max damage, you would ideally want the person incinerated, disoriented, and then fire off an l2 on the block.
My problem is that Massacre takes forever to ramp-up.
If the AI goes aggressive, then you can't hit them on the block for ignition charges
It's honestly way too exhausting having to use the l2 on the block, and also having to hit the other persons block 9 times
Now he can get ignition charges through crits, but RNG in this game isn't always in your favor
Thus, I think he is accurately rated where he is. definitely top 10 in skill class, but top 5 probably not

Well that went over your head

Nothing goes over his head. His reflexes are too fast.

He’s fun to play, yes. But the ramp up can be a tad annoying, and he doesn’t really provide as much utility as required for his unique playstyle that requires counter intuitive hitting into block as we wanna intercept most of the time (so that really messes up with your reflexes).

Also, he’s not “required” as a supplementary to Domino as compared to Rulk. Hence, it’s hard to rank him over Blade NF Aegon KM etc insane offensive champs who have their own utilities, and Korg Elsa etc defensive champs who can give you an edge in wars.

For me, I have a hard time getting the bat to ignite. Getting 10 charges before the timers expire seems a little tight. I can't tell you how many times I've been at 9 with a decent amount of time left when suddenly the enemy decides to stop cooperating and won't block anything. As soon as the first charge falls off it's all over. I never seem to catch back up.

That's what does it for me. I mostly use him on an arena team with Domino and Rulk, so even starting with some charges, I can only ignite the bat in 1 out of every 5 attempts.

As an owner of a rank 5 near max signature masacre I honestly don’t see him as being under rated. He is ok to good. I don’t use him much unless bringing trinity and even then he still ends up being more of an after thought. Of my 18 champs at r5 or r2 he is used close to the least. He can come through in some fights and he is viable in act 6 but rarely the best option

He's fun to run with domino, but there are far better options for what he can offer

MoNsTeR_804

I know! He's fun and his damage is slick!

Well, i guess but who needs utility when he can finish a fight in a second??

MoNsTeR_804

And guys if you really have bad RNG and can't get his bat ignited, use an sp3, that'll make his ignition charges WAY easier

How can anyone not like a champ who belts the **** out of their opponents with a baseball bat?

I own a R4 duped 5* version and I’d R5 him if I could

Cliffordcan

I hate trying to purposefully hit blocks, especially with endgame AI. It throws my rhythm way off and is doing the opposite of what I’ve been doing for 5 years. For that reason I don’t find him fun at all and the ramp up is a huge pain. He’d probably be a lot of fun in Map 5🤷‍♂️

How much does his awakened ability help? I have him at r4 for Domino team and I like him OK but mine is unawakened.

It does close to nothing. It's purpose is to just help you ramp up your ignition charges faster at the start of each fight. Nice to have, but not needed.

Massacre
Darkhawk
Nightthrasher
Ronin

All of them are hidden gem.
Awesome mechanism. Brilliant champion.
Just tricky to play with.

Also Taskmaster too. Cz this month's eq and stuff i learned a lot about this dude.
He has some wierd cool mechanism.
Can stop archangel's neurotoxin
Becomes parry or any debuff immune mid fight and bunch of stuff.

I know! These champs are underrated as well. Ronin becomes god tier if you are good at backdrafting and you have the skill, Night Thrasher hits like a truck if you're willing to put the commitment with high sig plus synergies. I wouldn't say Darkhawk is underrated tho, he's really appreciated. Everyone's going "he's not as good as Nick Fury or Aegon or Blade" but not everyone has the luck to pull these champs that they ignore the underrated ones and think they're not worthy, but those champs have potential.
