Zemo’s damage output comparison

So Zemo now only has one rotation you can go for, which is the sp2 sp1 sp1 rotation, giving you 31 bleeds per usage. I’m running 5/5 deep wounds, my Zemo is rank 5 max sig with a rank 3 5 star valk relic. Basically as topped up as a Zemo can be. Now let’s see what his damage output looks like compared to some other skill champions…

°Rank 5 max sig Zemo:

°Rank 4 unawakened Kate Bishop:

°Rank 1 7 star unawakened Hawkeye:

°Rank 4 sig 180 Attuma:

°Rank 3 Masacre:

°Rank 3 Ronin:

°Rank 1 7 star Killmonger:

°Rank 4 Aegon with 0 persistent charges:

In my opinion, if Shuri got a buff when her damage was better than this, he deserves one too. What do you think?

R1 7* Spidergwen with suicides, penni and venom synergies taking WS in 46 seconds, was, in retrospect, pretty impressive...🤔

The same but he could do this:

Looks like damage is the same & just a change to the playstyle.
Yeah, but that change to the playstyle was what made him viable you know? Otherwhise he’s not strong enough. Like I said, if Shuri got a buff when she had more damage, why not him aswell, especially now that root is nerfed
True, maybe somee middle ground like increase his damage abit or defender doesn't power gain during root 🤔
Exactly, this post is meant to be more harmless and to look forward to the future of Zemo. Maybe they can tune his damage up and then the new root will be less of a hit to his viability, that’s what I’m hoping to achieve

As much as I think tickets are needed for Zemo, I wonder if I’ll rank him down… I still like him so much, he’s just so weak…

Same here
He is an apt counter to champions who evade and go unstoppable (looks at footlose) and also has that consistent bleed dmg(maybe tune it up a bit)

If they tune the bleed dmg up then he will probably not be a bench warmer for many players
He will become a shell of what he was before the all the balance and fix. So why not give him some more dmg to compensate for making him below avg in dmg and power control department

A question for the opp; why does Zemo need a damage boost, compared to all the skill champs that are absolutely at the bottom of the pile?

I have a 6* zemo, so would like a buff, but why is him receiving a damage buff so important, compared to the others?

I mean, if you want damage and/or bleed and shrugs, the class has kingpin, cross bones, jabari, og black panther, nick, moleman, Shang chi, hit monkey and others I'm possibly missing.

Why should zemo be a priority? Genuinely.

I think in accordance with the rebalance program

I think they've stopped the monthly buff program and will only tune new champs.

Which begs the follow up question, of, why does he need a rebalance or tune up on damage?

He has relatively unusual utility, damage in the right match ups and is pretty decent on defence. Does he need to be top 10% or even top 50% on damage in all matchups compared to the wider skill class?

Again, genuine question. Tough to know what kabam intended in terms of damage for him.

Zemo was never a fast attacker. He had his place in niche matchups, and as a prestige option and defender. He does worse on attack now that his busted interaction is fixed, but he still takes those same matchups.

Shuri, previously, was subpar in everything. Nobody ever used her. The buff there was needed.

SecondSkriller

Zemo always had 1 rotation, and 1 alternate bug that wasn't fixed till months later lmao

Besides the obvious exploit where you could just win a fight without the opponent ever being able to attack. He's always been bad damage wise. I never ranked mine up even with the old root.

Both these are wrong

Because he’s getting rebalanced now and it’s the best opportunity

Also, the bottom of the line skill champs deal the same damage as him at rank 5 haha

Completely disagree, stop calling it a fix please, it was a nerf to root.
