A lot of people have been really waiting for the day that Spider Man 2099 would be added to the contest. Yesterday, I pulled him as a 6 star from my featured, and was really excited to play around with him. He really is a cool looking champion with awesome animation and he is also fun to play. However, he is definitely lacking a few things.
First of all, his utility. He has slow on SP 3, which is practically useless, since in any matchup where you would need slow, having to throw the SP3 is not really realistic since you probably need it from the beginning of the fight. Now, let's talk about his "power control". He can reverse power gain. However, in most matchups where you need power control, his power control is not enough. In heavy power gain matchups, you don t even get to place enough exhaustion debuffs, let alone place the wither debuff. The cool thing is indeed the fact that he has the same ability as Red Guardian, the immunity to buffs.
Now, let's talk about the damage. It is atrocious. I don't run suicides, and even if i did, he is the closest thing to a non-suicide friendly champion. So, the "best damage rotation" is considered going for the SP1, SP3 and then throw a "massive" SP2. That takes a lot of effort and time (6 power bars) to pull off, and doesn't even pay off, since the damage is very little. Even if you go for just SP1 and SP2 spam, he still takes way to much time to kill any opponent. The rupture damage is also low, and requires high sig to be reliable and even so, the damage fluctuates since he only has 80% change to reapply the rupture at max sig.
And finally, his playstyle. I find him really fun, however, he is not the easiest to play. Having to constantly use Dexterity to not lose even the little damage that he has. If he would be rewarding in terms of damage and utility, his stressful playstyle would not be a problem.
All that being said, i think he is in an even worse position than Odin was before his buff, and he definitely needs some attention.
A few fixes could be to increase his damage for every debuff, not unique debuff, let him build resistance over time so you can refresh the debuffs less often(or make him like Stealthy, make him only need to dash back to refresh the debuffs), make the ability to reapply the ruptures be on his base kit, move the slow to the heavy attack. And give him the ability to start with one wither debuff active (i know he has that synergy with Anti Venom i think).
Let me know what you guys think, and also, Kabam, please consider giving this guy a tweak, he deserves it!
