Spiderman Classic Buff

I understand that not every champion is created equal.
I also understand that some champions like cable require at least a synergy partner to unlock their usability in game, but I just cant help but feel like Kabam didn't listen to the communities concerns with this buff. While he is slightly better than what we saw last month in the beta, He's still truly not a champion any of us would practically use, especially in the end game.
I've been playing with him for the better part of two hours and I have to say I'm fairly disappointed. I downloaded this game 7 years ago as a Spider-Man fan and its always been a slight pain point for me that the OG Peter Parker was such a bottom feeder in the game. I've survived just fine without using him AT ALL for years, but I definitely was probably the most excited I've been in a long time when this buff was announced. With a full team of synergies he's OK and I'm being pretty generous with the OK, and without a helping cast I cant say the buff makes him any more practically useful than the pre buff (either way hell be collecting dust).
I think there are a huge number of players who have lived their whole lives loving Spider-man, and this was an opportunity to really make a huge portion of the community happy. Maybe Kabam doesn't want a champion that most people have to be that great, but its just a little sad that the most iconic and important character in the marvel universe has been buffed from the F tier to the E tier.
I wish Kabam would hear the community for once and take what seems to be an interesting kit and rework the numbers.
I don't and didnt expect Spider-man to be the next Hercules, but I really don't understand why he has to be the next deadpool x force.
Perhaps some great players will find some niche utility for him but man-o-man does it stink that we get this awesome new cosmetic update, just for him to continue to be terrible.

Versus my Symbiote Spidey also 5* R5 with much lower sig level, and only with Red Goblin and no other synergy members, took 150 hits and was more fun too.
OG Spidey now has taunt, but so does Starkey Spidey who's got much better damage and power drain. Oh well, maybe the buff will get rebuffed...
