Speaking of martial artist: let's talk about Karnak

Mr.0-8-4

Hey Kabam,

I was reading up on my boy Karnak after watching the Shang chi trailer and I noticed you guys gave him an 80% defensive ability accuracy reduction and you guys go on to talk about how he can defeat champs like Electro once they're dazed.

The problem with this statement is that Karnak takes forever to reach SP3. By the time he reduces Electro's static shock, he's already lost over half his health. Why not give him a power gain to help him reach SP3 faster and change his ability reduction from "defensive" to just ability accuracy?

He's a great character who could use a change in his awakened signature but over all, a decent champ.

Just something to think about.

I rather Karnak remain as is. I don’t want to rank up a champion that requires two different class catalysts.

Then... don’t rank him up? That’s still an option you have even if he does get buffed.

His awakened ability is really good with willpower and/or suicides

Turns out karnak accidentally signed up for Tai Chi instead of Tae Kwon Do.very good at focus an breath control, not so good at punching people.

Karnak Sp1 is OP

It would be cool if they added in Lockjaw. A teleporting dog would be a nice unique addition to the game. We have a monkey, a pig, a duck, and a raccoon already in the game. Having a playable dog in a fighting game wouldn’t be nonsensical.

Karnak is seriously underpowered.
I agree.

He needs to be buffed to a level that justifies having to rank him with 2 catalysts.

Common sense.

Honestly, Karnak needs a ton of help. If he’s the mystery buff this month, I will do a happy jig.
