I find I use him frequently on path 5 in war (t4-5)
Often can find hit monkey, nick fury, kingpin, korg, KM, etc on this path and he just facerolls these defenders plus many more.
His death spore reduce the chance to shrug debuffs.
He's poison immune, and basically bleed immune.
His medium/heavy/and most hits of his special cannot reflect damage back to him (i.e. thorns, electro, awakened korg, killmonger, etc)
No one in the game is immune to his death spores (robots just are slower to stack, but I never use him vs robots)
Death spores also reduce opponent armor rating
He has sustainability with regen on sp1&3
And if the defender is playing super defensive AI, (backs into corner and just holds block) there's been many times I'll just go stand next to them and block too. Let the death spores do all the work lol
Also chance on medium attacks to be unblockable.
The really only drawbacks to him is:
1. Not great vs robots
2. Not ideal for stun immune defenders unless you're a pro player and know how to punish with heavy attacks to stack degen
3. To maximize damage output, synergies really help (but aren't REQUIRED)
4. Also gets a HUGE benefit from running suicides with little to no drawback
5. Requires high sig to also output his best damage
All & all, I love the champ personally. He's one of my favorites and I almost made him my first R4 6*, but instead opted for Herc.
If you like him (and run suicides), he can still put in work for you.
