Bishop too OP!!!!

I’m sorry. I like the new buff Kabam placed on Bishop, but on offense. As a War Boss, he’s too OP! I brought in several good counters for Bishop and all of them failed miserably. Mostly because of his ability to keep his Power Bar level going into the next fight. I had 3 fights where I was killed right off the bat because he threw his SP2 right away and killed my champions. Nothing you can do.
Something needs to be done about this. Alliances will will be losing all their Attack Bonuses if he is placed as a War Boss and there is nothing they can do about it.
I was even fully boosted to the MAX! Not all champs are Incinerate immune so if you don’t bring an Incinerate Immune champ, you’re screwed from the Incinerate debuff you get just from hitting him. If you don’t fully evade his SP2 Attack, you’re screwed again because by that time he has enough prowess buffs it just kills you no matter what. Evading his SP1 Attack which is Unblockable 90% of the time?? Pfffft, just kiss your arse goodbye.
Like I said, he’s great to use on offense, but going against him when he’s a War Boss? Don’t expect to get any Attack Bonuses. You’ll be lucky to get even one Attack Bonus if you’re skilled enough.

    It takes a little bit to get those debuffs placed on Bishop using Void. I get what you are saying, but once Bishop gains any bar of power, you’re kind of screwed.

    SP2 easy enough to dex.
    Anyone incenerate immune works.

    You would think. I had to fight a 6* R3 duped. Not very fun at all. One fight I mistimed his SP2 and got clipped on the tail end. Still killed me.

    Vulture always gets overlooked on my roster lol

  • Gildarts99Gildarts99 Member Posts: 404 ★★
    Maxed sig I mean.and he works alright

    Ghost is my go to counter for him.
    I bait sp1 and phase all of it.
    Then the incinerates turn into furies, I get to sp2 and the rest is history for bishop.

    Other solid counters are vulture, Claire voyant ( use her a lot for bishops as well ) and colossus.

    You can't be angry because Bishop's not on your side in a war.

    Use Ghost. Leave hazard shift link up and the fight goes even more quickly. 2 wars ago I took down a R3 in tier 4 war in 20 hits (I run full suicide masteries) and the fight lasted 27 seconds. For boosts I used a 200% tech power boost and a greater champ boost. To make the fight go even more quickly you could use a power start boost to get to your special 2 more quickly. If you have enough furies from phasing hazard shift (and bishops incinerate) you can basically spam special 2 using the tech power boost.
