He's a war utility champ. Not the best defender or attacker but can be used for either. He shrugs off debuffs so he can catch people that rely too much on parry/debuffs for defense. He is great for offense against people that evade or hit you with unavoidable debuffs like Dorm also since he can shrug them off. He can also cover degeneration/bleed/poison nodes and shrug off that debuff 70% of the time, but that's risky.
He used to be a lot better. They've dulled him down the last few updates. I used to get 700 per tick on bleed, now its 482. His bleeds don't trigger as much as they used to either. As mentioned a good utility champ. But cats better spent/saved on Gwenpool or BW
Before they created defender diversity he was guaranteed to be he "I don't have a mystic, Hyperion, spidey or nc so who should I place" champ? Meaning he was good enough to be in war and excelled on kinetic reactor and was good on unblockable l1 (bc he could hit og dd by decreasing his evade ability or bc if someone parried, he could shrug it off and then immediately throw an l1).
But with new war setup, he's not as useful as he was. But he's still good and better than most other skill champs.
His base stats and sig are also good. He is one of my favorite characters. Reminds me a lot of classic DD, where he's really really good, but otherwise ignored because there are god tier champions available.
He has anti evasion (I used him to beat Webslinger event), near debuff immunity (very high chance to shrug off any debuff including suicide masteries and frostbite), good damage and bleeds on every special plus an incinerate on the special 2.
In general, he's a great all around decent champion, but there's nothing OP about him. Rather, he just does everything well, but not at the very top of the charts. He also has synergy to the Guardians of the Galaxy team, along with Angela, King Groot, and Ronan.

AV is good for both questing and AW defence as he hits hard and shrugs off rebuffs applied on him
