I checked the sp1 power drain first

Mysterio

I am very interested in the slowing down time mechanic. This could be tested as a method to see if characters like Quick Silver could work in the game. Having them slow down time but still move at normal speed while just the opponent is slow.

As for Hawkeye, he looks like a better champion for sure, but I can't determine how good he will be until I get to play around with him.

As for Mysterio, still the best Fish Bowl in game!

Didn't watch the video, but I did read the spotlight. So far, I like what I see.

Cool. Definitely sounds like a nice improvement.

I have an awakened 6s. But skill bleed champs are not a roster need for me, so prolly won’t rank him up.

Sighsohard

He’s the skill version of magik. What’s not to like?

It isn't, slow "down time"? And mordo sp2 does have slowed down time.

Hawkeye looks really cool, my Thronebreaker challenge account will get a lot of testing on him done!

Pretty cool that he's the first skill champion to be immune to poison (albeit with a synergy). I wish that slow debuff could be paused without a synergy, ten seconds is nice but could be longer.

Very excited to test!

Hawkeye seems very good. Don’t think he needs to be awakened either as all his utility is in his base kit, you would only be missing out on damage. Looks like he could be a top skill 👀

It’s for Thing and Korg. It looks very niche for a synergy

KingInBlack

Looks really strong to me. I have a 6* sig 60 Hawkeye and a duped fixit and way more excited for Hawkeye. Looks like he could be putting out absolutely nasty bleed damage and still control power almost as well as before.

Designed to counter Thing and Korg. Spam sp1 at Thing and never have to worry about his rock stack kit.

It seems like its going to remove the rock charges from thing and the rock shield from korg

Remove Thing and Korg's rock related abilities. You kinda need the tigra synergy alongside it though, otherwise you'll be doing barely any damage since they're bleed immune

Pretty sure power control will be better now because of reduced combat power rate. Pretty sure the enemy won’t ever be able to throw a special if you spam sp1!

He does seem pretty cool and I'm relieved they've kept his sp1 power drain. Hard to say how good he is without testing but he sure does have a ton of new stuff.

Kind of underwhelmed. But said the same thing with ultron and now hes at r3 and one of my favorites. So will have to see

Why underwhelmed? He seems insane to me

I feel the slow down time mechanic will be similar to the sp3 mini game of 5 n 6 star champions. And what better way to time the release than with the early-late bar thingy.

Let see how it turns out tho

Captain_Montica

1)his power drain on sp1 is a bit lower but combined with suppression debuff I think it's same if not better
2)slow on heavy attacks is a nice piece of utility
3)his bleed on special attack got nerfed significantly


But also can be critical bleeds and you can pause them so they might be better actually
4)his sp2 could have more utility and one advice for kabam : just get rid of block Proficiency reduction. It isn't useful at all. Replace it with AAR
5)I wish his sp2 also had a power lock
6) it seems he needs to be awakened to apply critical bleeds which I'm not a fan of
7)this buff looks actually good and useful. No game changer but any improvement would be greatly appreciated

There’s a lot to like with Hawkeye buff, but…

1) why not a prefight where you can choose what type of debuff arrow you wanna use (bleed, shock, incinerate)?

2) why do the arrows in the toxin synergy arrows not cause a poison debuff?

3) why is OG Wolverine not in the adamantium synergy?

4) why no sick alter ego synergy with Ronin?

5) and most importantly, why can Hawkeye still miss?!?!?! It’s Hawkeye… he doesn’t miss!

Where is the buff detailed??

Not miss should be evade counter and not the miss in game

1) His whole kit builds up to amplifying his bleed damage, and that’s why his quiver isn’t equipped with the other types of DoT that you are looking for. Anyway, let him do one type of DoT but let him do it really well.

2) Nerve Toxin makes sense to prolong slow because nerve toxins actually slow you down. And then again, see point 1.

3) 100%. This made absolutely no sense to me.

4) Very good idea. They should have taken this opportunity.

5) Another great suggestion, I would have loved that too, but I am assuming they wanted to differentiate him from DD Flix by giving him a new mechanic (Perfect Release). Which was nice at the end. I think I prefer this move from Kabam.

Loved reading your points dude! Resonated strongly with all of them.

As for my thoughts, I think this is a great buff from Kabam. Major kudos 🤙🏼

With Tigra synergy you can aplly poison instead of bleed for bleed-immune matchups

just to back up #2, there’s always a synergy that gives him poison arrows

Im not sure. Just reminds me of how I felt with ultron. I'm sure I'll end up loving him. Maybe even r3 him.

The slow time looks very interesting

He was my 1st rank 4 champ and I have a 4-5 gem
Plus his buff looks good on paper👀
