Poll: Is blade underrated?

I personally believe that he's perfectly rated. Many claim that he's overrated, to the point that he's almost underrated.

He is beast with spark and GR

EthanGamer

He still has great damage against non bleed immune champs. Danger sense is a great ability, and his regen is insanely useful. Wish my five star was awakened.

Masterpuff

Aren’t no and he’s perfectly rated the same?
Also at this point without synergies I would say Ronin is better than blade.

Djin

He's overrated.

gohard123

He had his time in the contest

xNig

He’s still one of the best.

High base damage, quick power gain, utility to selectively shrug off debuffs fast, regen.

Additional base damage against villains and/or mystics.

Timone147

No he is not underrated. He is a good champ. Just not top 3 skill champ anymore. He is good but no longer the best at what he does.

Regen-there are now better
Bleed- there are now better
Mystic killer- there are now better

He is still a good option but not the best option anymore which is why he has fallen out of favor and not talked about as much.

lowlevelplayer

He's overrated.

still overrated? I don't think so

ChriissR

Not overrated or underrated. Just average. Not the beast he used to be in 2018.

Downside that he requires 2 other champs to make him viable isn't great, especially because Ghost Rider is average in 2020 now.

He is good without any doubt but he really can't stand a competition with Aegon,Nick and stealthy cause if you look into Act 6 blade shines in act 6 but Aegon,Nick and Stealthy shines more in Act 6 even Abyss. Blade needs his synergies and works against mystic and villains.Contest is grown too much, I doubt if he can carry on. He still have Regen and one of the best villains and mystic champions counter.

I still remember when forum was mad about blade. Those who didn’t own blade specially they made those topic. They were asking to nerf blade that time. Lol.

Blade doesn't not shine in Act 6, unless we're talking 6.1. He definitely isn't good enough for late chapters of Act 6.

@ChriissR My alliance member used this OG Trinity so many members have used this Trinity for act 6 clear and some exploration.

So you can't say he is not good unless you haven't tested him.

I've 100% all content in the game with Stark and Blade at R5. And in 2020, Act 6, Abyss have I never said, "this would be so much easier with Blade".

Blade was useful for one path in exploring Act 6 and that was the Gimme path. Useless for rest.

I wouldn't call a champion who can clear entire paths in 6.3 with no potions and revives useless.

Blade is part his glory days, for sure. But let's not exaggerate.

Blades useless without synergy. And goodluck bringing Stark Spidey into late Act 6, a few parries and he's under 50% health and also loses a huge portion of his damage. In Act 5, 2018, the trinity was amazing. In 2020, it comes no where close to the other champs. Blade isn't even top 3 Skill champs anymore lol

So, you jumped from "useless" to "useless without synergy" to "not top 3 skill any more." Stark Spidey has about the same block proficiency as stealth Spidey but you don't hold that against the latter, do you? If you are willing to intercept with Stealth, you can do that with Stark too.

Aren’t no and he’s perfectly rated the same?

You're joking right?

No he is not underrated. He is a good champ. Just not top 3 skill champ anymore. He is good but no longer the best at what he does.

Regen-there are now better
Bleed- there are now better
Mystic killer- there are now better

He is still a good option but not the best option anymore which is why he has fallen out of favor and not talked about as much.

I would argue that he still has the best regen in the game. He literally has the most convenient and easy-to-use regen in the game. Just go back and hold block and he'll start regenerating and it isn't a problem because you gain so much power from the bleeds on the opponent. He's a literal living health potion. Who do you think has better regen?

You must not be good, cuz I’ve cleared plenty of lines of act 6 with stark (with and without boosts). Still one of the better techs out there in the game. His damage is dependent on you doing something you always do in the game; dodge. You don’t need to block and parry all the time.

Blade is a good champ; I use him here and there still but not as useful as he used to be. Don’t get me wrong he’s still a rightly rated champ, but he uses have diminished. I run back up in our war. So when I see the fights I’m needed for I will bring in blade. But my war team is very diverse, in season 18 I brought probably 12 different teams just depending on what’s left.

He’s overrated imo, for a mid game player he’s amazing, but for endgame players he only really sees use in a couple act 6 paths and for aq, and for map 7 he’s only used on a couple paths

LeNoirFaineant

The nerf Blade posts flooded the Forum for a long time. Almost as soon as they ended, the overrated and Blade hate posts became a thing. I think he is underrated at this point.

Nope. I have gameplay to support it too. Higher damage, more utility without synergies, but blades regen is really nice.

@KDSuperFlash10 add me on Line I can send video of him.

Why not post here? I think a showcase of Ronin would be beneficial to many viewers.

I could try and post it on a YouTube account. Let me try to do so. All I can really showcase is his raw damage in a single vid. If there is any utility you would like to see showcased, just say so.

It’s just a damage showcase, I can do utility later.

I personally have a rank 4 blade that I pair with my rank 5 Spidey for most contents (I've not been doing from act 6.2 upwards, just AQ, AW, and other questing)
But to be honest I won't take him past rank 4, because his damage is not so great without his danger sense, but one thing no one can take from him is his great regeneration. Asides that, his damage output is just their and no lacks the utility most skilled champs have now. Plus kabam keep bringing out characters that don't help trigger his danger sense, hence the requirement of synergies. So blade is still very good for map 5, act 5 for sure, and some particular paths in EQ, but he can't be categorized as beyond god tier anymore. He's now a demi-god.

I don't think he's overrated, but rather other champs have surpassed him

Agreed.
