Champion Spotlight - Abomination (Immortal)


About Abomination (Immortal)
In an attempt to study gamma mutation and weaponize it, leader of the U.S. Hulk Operations program “General Reginald Fortean” teleported aboard Gamma Flight’s orbital base with the goal of taking back the husk of Abomination’s body. In a moment of curiosity Fortean touched the Abomination's remains, quickly becoming engulfed by the husk and transforming into a ruthless new Abomination tied to a mystical force known as the “One Below All”.
Abomination (Immortal)’s Mechanics
Abomination (Immortal) focuses on stacking Poisons on himself to use as a resource. Incoming nodes or foes that place Poisons on him will power him up even farther! Each Poison on Abomination will Passively make him more tanky, however they can also be spent to fuel his Toxic Aura, allowing him to output massive Poison and Acid damage onto his Opponent! Using Special Attack 2 to activate the Toxic Aura, and looping Special Attack 1 to upkeep it for as long as possible is Abomination’s core rotation!

Character Class: Science
Basic Abilities: Acid Burn, Weakness, Petrify, Poison
STRENGTHS:
- High Damage Potential
- Abomination (Immortal) excels at high damage output, especially in places where he can inflict Poison on his Opponents.
- Blocking multihit attacks
- While Poisoned, blocked attacks will weaken the Opponent for 2 seconds. Although this is short it can stack multiple times meaning attacks with a lot of hits in a small window (such as Doctor Doom’s Special 1) can be blocked easily and deal little chip damage.
- Healing suppression
- Lots of Poisons means very little healing for the Opponent, but if that isn’t enough for your liking, Petrify can drive healing down even farther!
- Block Breaking
- Acid Burn allows many free openings into an Opponent who is playing Passively.
- Poison Immunity
- If the Opponent is immune to Poison, it will take a lot of extra effort and ramp time to see meaningful numbers out of Abomination.
- Debuff Purification
- Opponents who Purify Debuffs will make stacking 10 Poisons take a lot longer and thus cause Acid Burn to take a lot longer to trigger.
- Always inflicted with a Debuff
- Abomination will almost always have a Poison on himself, this can make him extremely vulnerable in certain scenarios such as when fighting Void.
- Critical Hits / Damage effects
- Each Poison on Abomination grants Physical Resistance, this can make him quite tanky. Critical hits bypass 80% of Physical Resistance and most damaging effects will bypass it entirely making him especially vulnerable here.

- If the Opponent reaches 10 Poison Debuffs they are converted into an Acid Burn Passive dealing 14580.5 Direct Damage over 5 seconds.
- While Acid Burn is active, the Opponent is inflicted with an indefinite non-stacking Poison Debuff dealing 0 damage and reducing health recovery by 30%. While this is active, no additional personal Poison effects can be inflicted onto the Opponent.

It would be nice to have confirmation from Kabam whether or not the Passive Acid Burn counts as 'Poison' damage for the purposes of the Acid Wash node. And likewise, for abilities like those of Karnak/Diablo to reduce Poison damage.
Worst case scenario, the Acid Burn damage is wasted - it only lasts five seconds; then you can start stacking Poison again. So he'll still work; but it'd be nice to know!
This will allow him to keep up the pressure and keep dealing damage when facing an Acid Wash node!
(viability wise)
I was wrong
my question might have been asked previously but I think wasn't answered.. im curious if 'acid burn' is equivalent to Human Torch 'Nova flame'.. that would make immortal Abomination have some fight against poison immune champions.. Acid is not poison but its corrosive nature effects of acid; burns, melts and rots opponents.. hence lowering block proficiency, evasion, cancel regen..
