    No idea where this notion that Surfer sucks came from, I just tested my r1 sig 40 on rol WS and in one sp2-sp1 rotation he did over 250k damage. No synergies or pre-fights.

    It's the Hercules effect.
    Then maybe they should’ve nerfed him then?

    Anyone knows about superior ironman buff?

    They said it’s either next month or August

    So what is his best rotation?

    Heavy for first fury buff, combo til power cosmic buff is back heavy again for second fury then build up to two bars and once the power cosmic buff is back, heavy charge for combat power rate buff and sp2 immediately to go unblockable (and stay phased if possible) then just five hit combo relic five hit combo sp1 usually that's enough to kill any healthpool that isn't r3. Takes between 40-55 secs to do all this depending on AI cooperation, decent enough score 90% of the time unless you're really high in GC.
    I usually heavy for the power gain first, then the sp1 for double furies. Then heavy into armor, then launch the sp2.

    Why do you think the rebalance program exists now?

    Takes longer in BGs if you do that, you don't need four buffs for short to medium length fights, three will do.

    It's to make sure champions aren't meta breaking or too underwhelming. When Hercules was released there was no rebalance program

    Or instead of heavying into armor, dex and use the sp2

    If you do that you won't be able to get the phase buff which allows you to do full combo relic full combo after sp2, probably still slower.

    He definitely could use a buff in his buff duration in my opinion. He's still a great champ if he's all you got. He was my first 7*

    Since I see people disagreeing, this is r1 7* sig 40 no synergies or pre-fights doing 550k healthpool in 1:10, now what? Lol

    Anyone who thinks his damage is bad just doesn't know how to use him properly and needs to learn how to use him.
    Nice!!

    His buff durations are specifically tuned for his refresh mechanics. It’s why his power gain buff is shorter than the others, so that it can easily fall off and be reapplied to refresh the other buffs

    I just pulled a 7 " Gladiator so I guess this means bench for Silver Surfer:))
