Will/should carnage get buffed?

With the upcoming movie release , do you think he will get reworked?

Comments

He's not too bad. Nothing game-breaking or terrible. Plus, if I remember correctly, he was already buffed. He's an example of a champ that would obviously benefit from a small numbers buff, but in no way needs it

Jaded

Another buff to carnage? 🧐

LORDSPOOKY66

He's much better with RG synergy but without it he's ok. He has been buffed

Logan00

Yes, he was buffed together with venom, but other champs have being buffed/ changed twice, ebony maw, event though was useless

Hm, I think you are a few years late on this one

Would it be great if Carnage was one of the top champs in game?

Sure...but he’s already useful and a solid champ, especially with a couple of existing synergies. I’m fine with him being a solid middle to upper middle tier champ who can spin out a ton of bleeds in the right scenario.

Save buffs for the champs whose pulls cause phones to break.

No. He’s a perfectly fine decent champion, which is what these buffs have been going for

then again, they did buff Ronin. One never does truly know with Kabam.

Yeah he has Practically 0 Utility (some Minor Exceptions with Specific Nodes) but he still has one of the Most Ridiculously Potent and Easy Damage Ramp Ups in the entire game, ESPECIALLY with the Red Goblin Synergy.
I could see him get 1 or 2 pieces of Utility through Future Synergies, letting his Armor Breaks from Bleed Immune Matchups Stack would be a Great one, but I could never see him getting Another Buff/Rework of any kind.

To my memory the only Champions to ever get 2 Buffs were the Super Underwhelming Ones that really needed it, that being Ebony Maw and Diablo. (There may be One other example I'm not thinking of, or some Pre 12.0 Change)

JoseOk

No he doesn't need another buff, give that to venompool.

silentag

Yeah no, he got buffed with venom and he’s very versatile as is currently, especially with his new synergies like with Roblin. No need for additional buffs as he performs well now

Carnage is for the most part fine how he is.
IF they were going to buff him however I'd like to see him get a solid regen added to his kit. Being that his regenerative abilities are one of the more prominent in the comics , I think the way to go would be to add a very minor regen after each time he throws a special attack. This could mitigate recoil damage for those who use the mastery, and for those who don't would give him a bit more sustainability. The other way to do it would be to give him a heal for every bleed he sustains. Probably won't happen, but I'd love to see it.

I don't have him right now but in my second account I got him and I couldn't understand his rotation but he is fun to play check out seatin Vids on him

Aleor

I mean, spider evade counter at least should be there

I don't think Diablo ever got buffed before. But CW got a buff in 2017, and then again this year

Polygon

Are people seriously voting no? Carnage has no relevant utility in this game, sure he got a buff but when do you ever see anyone even talk about him. He’s purely just a fun champ and lacks a lot of versatility that venom has.

Pulyaman

I would like a change in his animations. He is supposed to be a ramp up champ. But long content like abyss which was released after his buff got a hit counter which made him absolutely useless.

Kerneas

I would like to see some tiny improvement like Ronin. Carnage is just all damage and fairly low utility. If they added sth like immunity to powergain modification or some other utilitary value, I'd be happy.

However even now he is a very good champion, just all damage

I could be wrong but I swear he got a Minor Upgrade to his Numbers upon First Release because there was so much backlash, same thing happened to Sentry as well I believe.,

Hm, I think you are a few years late on this one

What good is a buff if there is no relevant utility? Surely you should know this from the maw buffs

TrashyPanda

Should be? Probably not, but I'd wager he is used less than a number of the previously buffed champs.

Do I want him to be buffed? Honestly, yeah. I'd either want his ramp-up to be a lot shorter, or persistent like VtD's. Even then, he doesn't have much of a reason for me to use him. Just another beatstick.

His sp1 is really satisfying though, lol. Slap-apapapapapap.

Hm, no?
Carnage has utility in what he can do. Ebony Maw has utility in what he can do as well.

I bring my Maw to every war and he hasn't disappointed me, even before his buff

He doesn't really need a buff so I was tempted to say "No", but at the same time I wouldn't mind a little bit of utility and some reason to not just spam SP1 over and over again until your opponent is dead.

He is one of the most fun champs to play in the game but I just never can seem to muster up a need to rank him up.

He is not the main champ I absolutely need to see changed in the next few months, but I wouldn't mind seeing him get a teeny tiny buff eventually. Something to help with his survivability and...just something more than his awesome bleed bonanza.

Carnage is a valid example of a value only update. He's got a strong kit but maybe a number bump couldn't hurt.

Loki_Poki1280

I mean, spider evade counter at least should be there

perhaps a synergy with a Future Symbiote Character, Perhaps Knull, or Anit-Venom

Loki_Poki1280

Maybe he will get a synergy in the future with some champions, like other symbiotes or even shriek, if kabam decides to add her to the game. He can get some utility against evade, (Like Venom), Immunities to Incinerate and reduced duration on stun. Something Like that. Stacking of Armor Breaks, Like some of you said. All of theses issues could somewhat be fixed through A synergy, in my opinion.
