Is air walker as bad as people say he is?

What’s your opinion on air walker. Is he another useless herald or does he have some potential.

Rookiie

Ramp up is too long
High damage window is too short
Play style that is not simple to execute
Oh and he also hits like a noodle

Yeah he's a pretty badly designed champ

SpideyFunko

He is middle tier. Annoying defender, however.

He’s terrible, unramped he’s absolutely horrific, ramped he’s not bad, but he’s not worth going through the torture of ramping him up for, he also has hardly any utility and is heavily reliant on buffs and debuffs which have a lot of bad matchups

TheLegend27

The first fight is kind of painful. Second fight is not too bad. Third fight and onwards he is pretty decent. Definitely not as bad as people say he is but certainly not as strong as a Herald of Galactus should be. You have a bunch of people basing their opinions on videos they've seen on YouTube, and I can assure you that certain YouTubers don't have a clue how to play Airwalker correctly.

Dude seems okay imo at best

I think he’s fun to use for lower content, but for endgame stuff he serves no purpose. His damage the first two fights isn’t there, and while after he can hit fairly hard, it’s for a short 20 second window and he has no utility to sustain other than power gain.

smells like cull obsidian but maybe a tiny bit worse

Not just a tiny bit Thicco
Cull has Thanos' Favour buffs and Rout buffs that boost his damage until he's fully ramped up
And when he's fully ramped up he's something to behold, and it lasts for the rest of the quest
Fully ramped up, Cull can consistently take down larger health pools in short periods of time, his only issues are his lack of immunities, regen and block prof leading to low survivability (but there is the True Northern Synergy that can help)
Air-Walker delivers a lot less than that, and has a lot of work to do in between, he's really nothing special

I don't know why ppl call him "hits like a noodle" when he is a champ that reliabe in sp damage like longshot's basic hit like noodle, just use his power gain when parry and almost have a bar of power, then use sp, that all simple
