Possible carnage bug?

I recently took my 6* carnage to r3 (he’s my favorite character and I use him all the time, I know a lot of people will probably think that taking him to r3 was dumb, I don’t care that’s not what this post is about) anyways I know that carnage’s attack and health are usually a little bit lower than other champs at the same rank, but my r3 6* carnage’s attack and health are lower than r2 6* and that’s insane and I’m hoping it’s a bug or incorrectly scaled

The fact that you took Carnage to r3 is so awesome. I also love Carnage, he was my 2nd 5/50 4 star back in the day because of how cool he is. I still love running through some quests with him because he's so fun to play.

You aren't dumb at all for taking Carnage up to r3. He's an awesome champion. I find him to be quite underrated actually. And playing games is about having fun, so you do you.

As for the bug, Carnage has below average health and base attack (although his attack becomes insane when he stacks up fury buffs). I think it's just a case that Venom is very tanky and has higher health than Carnage. I mean look at Venom, he's huge. Also, going from r2 to r3 is only a 19% attack and health increase, so these stats make sense.

Yeah, I guess you’re right, I didn’t realize that r2-3 was only 19% boost

Although I do still feel like his stats should be a little bit higher than they are, I dunno, just feels weird that all my r2 champs have higher attack and health than him, cause it’s not just venom, squirrel girl and thing and ghulk all have higher stats too, doom has like 2k less health but like 1.5k more attack 😂

Assuming your talents that does not seem to far off:

Also champs that stack buffs like his tend to have lower stats because with the buffs it would get insane otherwise.

While that's largely true, to be fair, Venom also stacks a ton of buffs. I think that fact added to his stats that aren't as gimped as other buff-heavy champions are part of what makes him such a monster since his update.
