Doc Octopus nerf

Did I miss an update where the chemistry breakthrough of Doctor Octopus' awakened ability was supposed to be removed?
That was responsible for health steal while heal block was active. Is this a silent nerf or a bug?

Ask yourself if Kabam has ever silently nerfed any champion ever in this game and you'll have your answer.

They haven't.

Apparently removing text from abilties set removes the actual ability as well. Or vice versa

Which is probably a bug with Doc Oc.

Hi folks, please have a look through the Bug Fixes and Improvements section and let us know if you have any other questions: https://playcontestofchampions.com/v30-2-release-notes/

Note:
Doctor Octopus: Updated the Chemistry Research Heal Block to allow this Heal Block to interact with more areas of the game such as the Infectious Wrath Buff.

We will look into this further.

Yeah, I guess the update removed his awakened ability to health steal. Based on the update, it doesn't seem it was intended and I would request you to have it corrected.

I meant to say unintended*.

The team confirms that while the description may be missing some text, but his abilities should all be functioning exactly the same as before. We are working on getting the appropriate text added to his description, but again, for now his abilities should all be functioning exactly the same as before.

Half the champs in this game are already unplayable because of how useless they are for your roster, and the ones that manage to be useful kabam keep on finding ways to make they useless. It's things like this that make me wanna quit this game.

It does not work as before. He no longer has his life steal because he no longer deals damage according to amount healed. Just change it back

He was working fine prior to the update.
The update tried to "change" something that wasn't there in the beginning, and ended up replacing his ability instead. He can not have both, as per how his abilities are described, and this is the problem.

So a fix for this would be to revert him back to how he was, and forget how you wanted him to work after this update
