That would be a W for me tbh
I mean, if Onslaught wasn't a thing and I wouldn't save my shards till he gets in the Titan

Have him 7* duped.

You also love Psycho-Man. So we’re just meant to see things from two opposite ends of the spectrum. Lol

I am positive you will find good uses for him.

With all the negative feedback about a community champion I would be extremely surprised to see him not rebalanced for the better.

In his current state, he has 1 use: arena.

Still a use though.

Got one of those and one Lady DS. Not exactly at top of my list. One more on way and it’s white knuckle time.

Of course. However, I think we’d be hard pressed to find many excited to spend 20k Titan shards on arena fodder.

That's not necessarily a guarantee. Kabam isn't just going to take community feedback on whether or not a champion gets buffed. They're going to look at the data first, and if Gladiator is missing his targets on paper, that's what's going to get buffed first and foremost.

True. He misses his target luckily since he is not used and sits on the bench

You never know. I remember people had expectations for Adam Warlock to get tuned up and instead he was hitting all his metrics just fine according to the rebalance report.

I think Adam is a different case. He was amazing already, but some minor updates would’ve made him even more amazing (stun immune when in pod, passive AI control). He hits like a freight train and he has some great utility so it was fine. I can’t see Gladiator hitting any of those marks well tbh

Gladiator at max confidence is worse than Hyperion with three fury buffs lol.

WOLF_LINK

That’s why saving the Shards often doesn’t pay off. Just 6 new while 6 old rotate out, so majority (12) stays the same.

Xreiss

Gladstone isn’t that bad plus he’s getting buffed, I opened my first titan earlier and got Jabari panther. Saved it for a week after beating necro just to get Jabari. Srly kinda bummed about it.

Lol but seriously I wouldn't say its the same... who cares about Psycho man? But ofc ppl care about Gladiator and its not as rare to like the champion, including hoping his buff will be good. But nobody thinks to himself "I want Psycho man to be better" ppl don't care

Oh and for the record getting Psycho man is much more of a W imo

Its no different than rolling the dice on a 5/6* featured back In the day only to pull a groot or Cyclops. Can't all be the best.

Maybe…however. given Jax and Miike’s responses to another Gladiator complaint thread my hopes are not high. The team apparently operated under a “no more Hercs” mandate and, unfortunately, succeeded wildly.

Usefulness. Niche countering. Immunities. Niche uses. Any of those aspects incorporated into a buffed kit (if he gets one) is fine by me. I have my Herc. But Moondragon, Adam, LDS were deemed fine unbuffed (justified in Adam’s case). So the trend is not necessarily in Glad’s favor.
