    hes also gonna be great for suicides and the only bad thing i see so far is the reduction of stun chance on sp1 from 100% to 85%. would have been cool to see him get some new synergies but its fine.

    Isn’t this same as the old Gambit stun chance?



    Dr. Zola
    He gets 20% ability accuracy when they don’t have an armor buff

    This man is gonna be insane on biohazard. His regen will be beyond absurd.

    He has 150% resistance to bleed, so idk if that means he regens 50% of the damage others would have taken or what.

    Edit: at the very least it would have willpower like OR and Magneto with 1 point in coagulate

    Im delighted, this is just what I needed, a good electro counter

    He looks great. Maybe I’ll take my six star one up to r2. It’ll be nice to have another bleed resistant champ

    Gambit’s a Magik counter too

    Why aren’t these 2 Updated SPOTLIGHT's (Gambit and Falcon) showing as new (or on top of) on the main MCOC site where they’re located ?

    Still shows Showdown Qualifiers, 28.2, and Roblin / CGR as most recent.

    Are they final yet, or maybe not “bumped” yet if they are still working on them ?

    Ok, so new Spotlights just got put up here officially on Forum posts.

    (wonder if them updating Spotlight in main MCOC doesn’t automatically trigger a Bump over there)

    Looks like my 5* gambit will now have uses

    I have a 6* r2 gambit. Had t5b expiring and thought he might be a good option to do. And I'm not very impressed. His bleed immunity sounds good for cav mutant path, but overall... he should've been like that when he was released first, expected something more spicy. Also

    >>Blocking
    Gambit charges his weapons while holding Block, gaining a Kinetic Charge every 0.40 seconds. Kinetic Charges build up more slowly as Gambit accumulates more of them. Max Charges: 10.
    Dev Note: Gambit has the same base timer for building his Kinetic Charges, but they do not slow down nearly as much and he should be able to hit the cap of 10 much faster now!

    Is it that difficult to put exact numbers there?

    Isn’t it just wonderful to get the great news that your duped sig 20 6* Gambit will finally now be a worthwhile champ

    .... So, Omega red's thorn counter, 400% Prowess, and 150% bleed resist is not spicy enough? Idk man sounds pretty spicy to me

    a new ability called Flax Jacket and what i think is a namor like sig ability.

    Sorry to disappoint, mate:
    Flak jacket is something he's always had; although it's significantly improved upon with this buff.

    His jacket breaks when he's taken a certain amount of damage. Currently his Sig allows it to break when he's taken a bit more damage.

    I'm pretty sure that it works basically the same (but better); not that it literally 'absorbs' the damage like Invisible Woman's force field.

    Also (@Black_Swan) : 150% Bleed resistance doesn't mean that he's going to spontaneously regenerate when bleeding (except via Willpower). Resistance can't turn damage negative.

    However, what it will do is show him to cope with 'Enhanced Bleed' nodes which could otherwise cause him damage - Kabam generally codes these as additive; so (for example) Silver Surfer takes Incinerate damage on 'Enhanced Incinerate' nodes despite being 100% resistant. Gambit will now be totally resistant to bleeding, but won't be 'punished' for this immunity by champs like Clare Voyant, Yondu and X-23.
