Best character of each utility in the game.

EthanGamer

What I mean by this is who is the best for power control, who is the best for nullify, who is the best for healing block/reverse, who is the best for damage over time, who is the best for debuffs, who is the best for buffs, and who is the best for support. What would you say is the best character for these categories?

Thanks_D19

Best power control is quake, best nullify is Doom, best heal reversal is void, best DOT is archangel, best debuff champion is apocalypse, best for buffs is CMM, and best for support is nick fury

Power Control - Doom
Nullify - probably still Doom, could be Magik
Heal Block - Archangel (neurotoxin)
DOT - Archangel and BWDO, also Abomination with Red Guardian synergy
Debuffs - Void
Buffs - CMM or Hype

There are many more, but these are the top ones off my head.

Ive never used doom so how is his power control better than magik??

She just gets to a s2 and bam no more power forever.

Also gulk has a good healblock on s1 but yea AA is better.

Best evade counter is either nf, hm, or stealthy in my experience

Power control: Doom (Magik's also great, but Doom has very versatile power control that can work in a ton of situations.)
Nullify: Probably Symbiote Supreme (There are places where stagger doesn't work and he may not be reliable at times because of a lack of crits.)
Heal Block: Easily Warlock, it's not even close (It's super easily accessible and absolutely no one is immune to it.)
DoT: Gotta be Quake (Also NF, AA, HT, OR, Abom with RG, depends on what immunities the opponent has and some other stuff.)
Debuffs: Depends (Claire has super easy access to plenty of debuffs, but they're not potent, Void gains debuffs slower, but the damage is potent and has utility, etc.)
Buffs: Hyperion, Colossus, Magneto, Venom, a lot of champs (Maybe awakened Angela if you need buffs that you don't want to be nullified.)
Evade counter: Quake (Literally makes evade worthless.)
Immunities: Ghost (Turns any damaging debuff into a benefit.)
AAR: Also Quake (AA is also great against non-bleed/poison immunes.)
Regen: Awakened Blade (OG Wolverine is great too, but Blade is the only one with on-demand, unlimited regen.)
And I have no idea what you mean by "support".

Iron_Patriot_is_lit

Power control: magik
Nullify: doom
Healblock: mysterio or warlock
DOT: Omets
Debuffs: void
Buffs: venom
Immunities: frost
Regen: blade (wolverine very close behind)
AAR: AA/Magneto vs metal champs
Synergies: tie between apoc, nick, and possibly heimendall

Personally, I don't think Doom is better than Magik in power control overall. But Doom does have advantages over Magik. For one, Magik needs to get to SP2 to start power locking. Doom only needs to get to SP1 to start power stealing. For another, Magik relies heavily on power lock debuffs to control power (she does have power steal, but it isn't enough on its own normally). Doom does not rely on debuffs to power control, so he's more effective in situations where power lock or debuffs in general don't work. There is also a very tiny chance that Magik's power lock doesn't apply, as SP2 has an 85% chance to apply the power lock. Since the attack has two hits, the odds of getting the power lock at least once is about 98%. *But* if you are in a situation like masochism where debuffs get nullified, you might need both to trigger just to get one to stick. The odds of getting both triggers in one SP2 are only 72%. So it will often fail in that kind of situation.

I think that people also get enamored over Doom's cycle more than Magik. Magik's SP2 cycle is relatively slow. Doom has a much more entertaining SP1-SP3 cycle where in an environment with a lot of power gain you could be pounding on the opponent repeatedly with SP3 while the target can't do much except take it. That tends to highlight the effectiveness of Doom's power control more than Magik's SP2 cycle.

Sorcerer Supreme is the only champion that can regenerate on block. Remember that

why would you only want to regenerate on block when some champions can regenerate at all times!

Power Control: Doom
Nullify: Doom
Heal Block: Warlock
Passive-effects damage: Torch in his match-ups
Buffs: Magneto or colossus (Lot's of buffs)
AAR: Quake
Regular debuff damage: Nick Fury or Void
The best animal champion in the game: Hit Monkey

Take this advice with a pinch of salt

Who's the chonkiest champ in the game?

Thebombsquad1

Resurrection: immortal hulk

Realm_Of_Rah

There is only Quake

Agent_X_zzz

Power control: Punisher with 5/5 Collared Tech is the best for combat power control, but Passive Power gain then Magik.
Nullify: Quite depends on situation but Sym has insane buff control
Heal Reversal: Void easily
Heal Block: Magneto vs Metal, but non metal is Warlock.
Debuffs: To wide of a range
Buffs: again to wide of a range
AAR: Quake, no contact no problem
Regeneration: Sorcerer Supreme, Claire with Suicides
Animal: Tigra
Support: Heimdall, Nick fury, Apocalypse.

The thing is. The game is so complex there is no single greatest champ for any utility.

Magik is amazing for power control. Unless the opponent gets too much power that it’s hard to get her to 2 bars quickly. Then Doom could be better.

Nullify. You could make the case for BWCV. She nullifies on hit. Unless you need the buff to never even trigger (stagger). You could have SymS or someone else.

So. I don’t see any way a champ is best in 100% of the cases.

ABOMB

Id throw Yondu in the discussion for heal block too, his sp1 heal blocks for 20 seconds if fired off while opponent is in regen

Polygon

Lots of people sleeping on Hype’s regen here
