Deep dive for Morbius is out

https://youtu.be/tWy-QpF3aF8?si=SoIdcSkXOyfPdd2Q

Looks promising so far. No synergies shown however

Unawakened there's really only 3 "meta" Mystic fights he can't do; Mangog, Dragon Man and Man Thing. Awakened he can do the first 2 but Man Thing is unlikely with Poison and the crit reduction.

It would have been nice if the Rupture was in his base kit, maybe just at like 50% and then the sig bumps it to 100%, but it's not the end of the world if there's a handful of defenders you can't Morb.

Crit reduction can't stop him from Morbin' he has guaranteed crit on sp2 so it's always Morbin' time

He would crit but it wouldn't deal the bonus damage because Man Thing is made of mush.

Everyone knew that what made him awesome would be behind his awakened ability.

His awakened ability is not what makes him awesome lol what? You didn't see him go unblockable every single time he dashed in against Rintrah and Doom with a huge sp2 afterwards? 💀

Aren't psychionic glides just intercepts or there is a difference?

Also he is the first champ who seems to use blood in special animations.

Doesn't Blade also use blood animations as well?

Just tested it. Negative. Blade only gets the little blood aura around his feet when he's close to an opponent who's bleeding. At least what I saw.

Morbius awakened ability:

That 'Undying' ability sounds interesting. I wonder if it's affected by Dani Moonstar's Marked ability

Actually, it's not just around his feet.

If you look closely, when he's close to the opponent, you can see blood flying through the air between them 😀

It probably will be affected since Marked shuts down cheat death’s mechanics such as Immortality.

Yes. One hopes.

But the key word there is 'probably'...

Unless they update it, probably not, it's not one of the specifically listed effects

If Marked doesn’t work against Kindred’s root and preventing being knocked iut, then there is even less likelihood of it working on Undying.

Kabam wants people to still buy crystals, but then he even needs max sig to have reliable ruptures. Looks like the 6* will be more useful for the time being.

There are only three top mystic defenders he can't kill unawakened because of bleed immunity and they're not even the defenders he's meant to counter, what are you on about? He doesn't need awakened ability to be a great champ.

Shadowstrike

Just concerned there is great utility behind the sig ability so might be some disappointed people who paid for the plat passes (in fairness... they didn't know what they were paying for)

I paid for the Platinum passes because I wanted all the other bonus items, not because I had expectations for Morbius to be a beyond god tier champion.

If that was your motivation, then ultimately that was your fault.

Anyone else think they missed an opportunity not making him a dimensional being? He’s a massive rival to Blade in the comics and he should steamroll him

DUHveed

Never mind. Evidently he’s not a “true” vampire

What do you understand as “dimensional being”?

Pretty sure there’s blood from Guillotine 2099 SP2.

He’s definitely not a dimensional being

Morbius awakened ability:

Damn... that's. a lot of utility behind the sig. Still will be a good champ.

Sw0rdMaster

Still hoping there’s a good synergy with Blade and Spidey.

EdisonLaw

That's not what I expected. I expected it to make Blade's Danger Sense extend towards #Heroes as well.
