In Defense of Air-Walker. Behold, Galactus’ Wrath!!

GNASTY

Ok, before all the disagrees and Air-Walker hate. Please watch this very short clip and really look at this damage. This L3 hit over 110k total damage. These 14.7k medium crits also had 7.3k direct damage totaling 22k on a medium. Each hit is doing an additional 50% direct damage on top of the big yellow numbers. So, this guy is the biggest dud of 2020?

He’s actually pretty fun to use, after the first two ramp up fights anyway. His damage is pretty nasty once you figure out his rotation. Get 4 armor breaks, keep refreshing them ( so easy and manageable), launch that SP3 and then unleash the wrath of Galactus.

In all fairness, what ramp up champ isn’t underwhelming their first ramp up fight or two.

The only bummer is he has no immunities and little utility. But nevertheless, my point is, don’t just go off YouTube and tier lists (not hating on Seatin whatsoever, you keep on keeping on man. You are a huge benefit for players in the community especially newer ones). Still, formulate your own opinions people.

True but Groot is a high bar to beat, especially since Groot is the best champion in the game.

I agree fight one he is underwhelming. Two is not so bad. After that he is actually quite the beast.

I also really enjoy using him! I have him as a 6 star rank 2 (duped) and i'm thinking of R3ing him as a fun (and prestige) rank up.
First two fights and the bad sinergy with suicide masteries kinda stop me from really loving him tho.

Air Walker is a god, way better than 2020 memes like Roblin and Squirrel Girl

With all due respect, I am showing this to get people to think twice about formulating their own opinions before casting judgments on champs. You don’t have to like him, that’s your entitled opinion. I just wanted to show the
Community this quick snippet of what he can actually do, damage wise. So take it, leave it, just think for yourself.

I wish he didn't have ramp up or he gained some utility. All he has is armor breaks and damage. Not much going on

Imagine he gained bonus for each charge he has the increase his utility

Rough idea of how it could look like

1 charge: When launching a special attack, Air-Walker purifies all non-damaging debuffs
2 charges: All attacks reduce autoblock and miss ability accuracy by 100%
3 charges: 3 armor break debuffs are converted to an armor shattered debuff

His ramp-up is terrible and he has no relevant utility.

GNASTY

For perspective, a R5 Hyperion’s SP3 with 9 active furies (which is not easy to achieve), and 3 passive cosmic buffs, hits for roughly 45K, less than half the amount that A-W did here.

Now, I am not at all implying he is better than
Hyperion. Hype is arguably the best cosmic with a ton of utility and certainly more utility than AW.

I’m solely pointing this out to underscore the amount of damage showcased here.

Also, turn the sound up for that clip. That SP3 animation is so awesome lol.

Tbh he is hitting harder than I expected here.

I appreciate the objective outlook. I like to test champs thoroughly myself before benching or investing in, and I was pleasantly surprised myself when giving him a thorough test run.

Lol at the disagrees
