What’s it say? I’d use Reddit if I wanted to read Reddit

You guys asked for it, here's my ghost appreciation post !

For context I'm quite an old player, I did Act 6 in 2020, was officer and aw group manager in 2021 so I am really an older champions lover. With the arrival of Nimrod, fantman and viv vision (I do play nimrod and viv as well), people started acting like other champions didn't even exist. My role here is to remember you how OP ghost still is.

Long considered as the best champ in the game along with Quake, I think she still is today.

Her damage didn't get old and she folds fights as quick as my Hercules. Antman (great champ) synergy makes her hit even harder

Damaging debuffs just reinforce her.

Easy access to cruelty and fury buffs allow her to outplay certain nodes, but she can be played without gaining a single buff (against Mojo and dormammu she is a cheat code).

The Hood (great champ) synergy makes her take no damage from any source during phase (even SP3, degen, power sting, recoil)

Of course, she counters any unblockable/stun immune champ like nothing

If awakened, You generate much more power than the opponent. If you are at 200, you can launch an SP2 before he gets to SP1.

You can play with timing to trigger opponent's SPs or make them save it. It's hard to get it at first but you really have an impact on AI's behavior according to the combo you use (M, ML, MLL, MLLL)

Annoying super power ? Just phase it ! Mangog goes to SP2 ? I don't care. Joe Fixit unblockable SP1 ? Thanks for the free bar of power ! Venom SP2 is too quick for you ? No problem. Mister Negative delirium gets you every time ? Don't worry, ghost's phase gives you 2 seconds to think whether you swipe right or left.

Huge boost increase : her furies scale with boosts, and SP2 get stronger if you chain them. So for really hard fights you can use attack and 200% power boost that increases her craziness by a lot. It's not the case for Guardian, hercules or shang chi.

Some will argue she doesn't have any power control, armor or heal block. It's true, and for a tech champ that could be annoying. But you don't need armor when the opponent never touches you, her yoyo mechanism is a form of combat power control, as you give them the bare minimum, and I have never fought a champion that could heal faster than she inflicts damage. By experience (I had a fight against an annoying sasquatch), she does it better than CGR, Hercules, and scorpion who couldn't outdamage him.

Here's a video I made to show you a couple fights with my girl

I personally still think she’s the best champion in the game. She’s so broken in any fight that doesn’t specifically counter her.

Ghost is great! But I only have her 5 star version and has been waiting for 6 star with no luck from Abyss Nexus crystals. I’ve seen a lot of posts that says her signature ability is optional but for Ghost fans like us, that is absolutely essential for her to power up quickly. Learning how to use Ghost forced me to learn how other champions move which helps to improve my overall game too.

Love Ghost to bits but Kabam has actively made her hard to use because every single new defender counters miss in some way. Photon? Counters miss. Onslaught does the same, so does bullseye, and so does serpent. Why they gotta do my girl like that

I mean you can still use her, your just gonna take a little chip damage.

I doubt we will see her as 7 star for now in future yes she will come but for now I would invest in 6 star
