Ability. Accuracy. Reduction. Immune!
LOWER THE PITCH FORKS!
I don’t CARE if ArchAngel has it… what’s he uh… what’s he gonna do? Bleed AntMan though a glance? Be another counter to a VERY irritating champion? Sure!
Mordo? Yeah okay sure. Quake doesn’t mind, Drax doesn’t even notice, X23 can power though, AV and Elektra have mixed results… SURE! The Astral Evade needs a protection… he’s frail let it go!
MEPHISTO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Magik can be burned, drained or locked by many champs including Dormammu, Magik, Vision, AoUV, Voodoo, Hawkeye…
Ignored by BW, CB, Falcon, Elektra, GP, Voodoo, Pacify!
Or even played around by using Despair with a potent debuff spammer like… SPIDER GWEN, Iron Fist, Wolvy, X23, VOODOO (again?!), and MANY MORE!
Mordo you can time heavies or use either Drax, Quake or X23
Even ELECTRO is weak to skill class made of champs that take less shock damage, and can mostly either bleed him out, ignore his static or BOTH!
But MEPHISTO literally has 3 counters each of which is VERY weird!
1. Himself
2. Iceman (who seems to glitch around him)
3. Quake (I enjoy watching videos of this interaction)
Where is the balance? How about tying it to his power meter? The more power he has the less his abilities can be reduced. It’d still make him a ROYAL pain but this way we’d have some semblance of a strategy to kill him

Mephisto already has a lot of counters. ANYONE can battle against him if you aren't a bad player.
ANYONE can battle against Mordo too, so don't use bug interactions as possible counters against him.
Nothin more to say...
Ive called out Magik before and she’s my number 3 champ.
Also 12.0
Iceman is good because he is immune to incinerate and he caused coldsnap which Mephisto is not immune.
He didn't do anything for the buffed regen Mephisto had in boss run tho.
Mephisto is immune to cold snap
Excuse me! Magik isn’t Immune I ALL ability rediction
Tell that to kabam about 12.0
You clearly did read what I wrote before replying. I never said anything about her being immune. I said you should fight Mephisto like you would fight Magik.
I’d fight Magik but using GP and Pacify!
Pacify her and push her over. If I HAVE to bite a single limbo I will bait her L1
But because neither Pacify or GP work to ignore Aura-Incinerate it’s like fighting an Evade champ without the added benefit of being able to react before getting slammed! It’s just WATCH THE BAR AND STOP PUNCHING AFTER YOU EAT THE FIRST HIT OF HIS AURA! No skill, no way around, forced damage, JUST STALLING!
Phoenix and Carnage. As a avid Marvel fan....I believe Kabam has made a horrible injustice when they released these champs and kept them the same horrible state they were released in.
Phoenix is a interdemensional being of immense power bonded with one of the most powerful telepaths in the entire marvel universe. Her resurrection ability is trash.......it's regen is weak unless you manage to heavy a bunch times before it activates AND if its not activated AFTER Phoenix force drains the charges. ALSO.....she resurrects so why are none of the debuffs removed after her Sig Ability activates. It does NO good to resurrect only to be killed 2 seconds later from bleed, shock or poison debuffs. All debuffs should be removed and she should he invulnerable for a few seconds like Luke Cage or Mephisto when he regens. She's broken as she is.
Carnage just.............SUCKS. He's NOT supposed to be a overly complex character like Beast. He's pretty basic personality........serial killer, forms stabbing weapons to make people bleed! He's super strong........hes supposed to be even stronger than Venom.....so strong it took the combined efforts of BOTH Spider-Man AND VENOM to take him down. He should make people bleed like classic Black Panther.....but his stacks dont last! His buffs take too long to become permanent.......cannot believe Marvel let you pass off this horrible champ as the super villain Carnage!
Both Pheonix and Carnage are broken and need serious overhaul. There are other classic champs that are decent but could use a upgrade such as:
1. Red Hulk causes heat damage cus he radiates heat.....he should be incinerate immune
2. Electro is made of electricity......he should be shock immune.
3. Antman's L2 takes too long to charge, by the time you can use it the stacked Fatigue charges wear off and its minimum damage
4. Hawkeye's L3.....he blows you into air with explosive arrows and you fall to ground...no concussion, no incenerate, no stun......it needs something. His signature ahould be able to activate more.than one time.
5. Iron Fist.....no mystic powers yet Mystic class and he has ability to heal with Chi. Couldnt his L3 activate regen or power drain and or his Level 2 do a power drain effect?
6. DD (both versions)....his L3 does NOTHING yet has this mesmorizing effect why not stagger or activate critical hit or true strike?
7. Luke Cage...hes bulletproof he should take reduced damage from gun-type specials. His Indestructable signature ability should activate a second time when hes low on health.
8. Gamora.....her L3 is WEAK. Unless her Godslayer Blade breaks after ONE use her Assassination signature ability should work more than ONE time
9. JoeFixIt Regen is WEAK and does no use. At least 60 HP would be reasonable. His L3 also needs take more direct damage. He bludgeons you with butt of a gun amd proceeds to beat ur face with his fists....I expect a bigger chunk direct damage
10. Shehulk's signature ability needs to be explained better and not be so ambiguous amd it needs to be useful. Maybe:
Reduced critical damage by 20% from science champions
Reduced bleed damage and duration by 15% from Skill champs
Reduced debuff duration by 20% for Mystic champions
Reduced critical rate by 20% for Cosmic champions
Reduced power gain by 15% for Tech champions
Reduced basic attack by 15% for Mutant champions
Its been a long time since you updated some of your older heroes. These changes would balance game and make older champions a lot more appreciated.
