Destroyer needs a rework

As an owner of a 7* destroyer, it's safe to say his damage just isn't enough. Here's how I'd fix it.
1. Make his power gain pause part of his main kit, not needing an awakening for it to work.
2. Add to sig: degen potency and sp2 burst damage increased to 10-30% based off of sig.
3. Double damage of sp2 with no degen.
4. Make degen passive, able to stack and permanent, increasing sp2 damage by 100% if the original value for each degen. Degens that destroyer has not inflicted from a node and not his kit that are on the opponent increase sp2 damage by 25% of the original value each, eg bane node. All of this would combine to make him good in endgame content and allow him to do as good damage as champs like galan and possibly kate Bishop. His damage is currently lacking in the current meta, but as you can see, I haven't changed him defensively as he is already a great defender. What do you guys think? Spread this to @kabam employees if you think this should be his kit.

    He's supposed to be defender.

    Idek how to fight him?
    He gains unstoppable on sp1 after a while, then gains stupid power gain to reach sp3 and KO

    His sp1 increase hus charges. At 100 charges he gain his stupid power gain.

    Kill him before he launches 3rd sp1, or keep him to his sp2, which is unblockable

    Use a Science champion that places lots of non-damaging debuffs: they remove his Destruction charges.

    Piggy works? Or ladyD? Dust?

    So basically increase his damage by like 400% just because you don't like his rotation and are sad you pulled him from a titan and didn't dupe him lmao

    Only thing that needs changing is his weird, goofy animations lol. He poses and puts his fist in the air as if saying "I'll get you" like somebody from one of those old black and white movies or tv shows or something.

    😂. His Sp 3 movement looks like he's a speed skater in the Olympics or is on rollerblades, but in slo-mo lol

    Hahaha! Good point.
    He is a good and solid character already and was designed to be more of a defender. He can't be very good on both attack and defense.
    My honest opinion is that he is good as is. Not all champions have to be at the same level with Onslaught, etc.

    I just wish that more champs wouldn't be tagged as "defender" or "attacker" and instead were useable in both modes. His damage is heavily lacking and, as the defender of asgard, he deserves to be good on both sides. And don't you dare say, "he's the defender of asgard, not the attacker" XD

    There are a lot of dual use champs and Destroyer doesn’t need a damage buff. He just needs a better ramp

    Have you ever used him in a buff heavy matchup? Dude is a monster and can chain sp2s without giving the opponent an ounce of power

    I have, and I've seen faster damage from a lot of my other 7*s.

    I took mine to rank 2. I like him. No reason he needs to be the top mystic in the game to do good work in the contest. If you have mystics you like better, use them, but just because you pulled a champ you don’t appreciate isn’t reason to call for a buff.

    Of course, if kabam wants to buff him, I’ll be happy, of course.

    He's actually decent so he won't get touched

    Other champs that are as good as him on defense that don't grant the opponent power and can be chained? I agree his ramp up is a little long, but he hits like a truck when he's ramped and he's a super good counter to annoying defenders like hulkling

    Yeah he’s good but niche at times

    That’s likely, considering neither Dust or Ironheart were touched
