Is The Maker going to have the #LooksCoolButSucks tag?

Still early to call it but I don't really want to add The Maker to the #LooksCoolButSucks list.

Who are your #LooksCoolButSucks champions? Champs that you want to rank up because their model, animation, or unique kit looks cool or fun but they don't fall under a certain meta... or just literally sucks.

My Current List (I hope they get buffed):

・Sandman
This brute has been requested by the community years before I was even born along with Lizard (I hope this monster doesn't get released. He's just literally a lizard). Unfortunately, the community immediately forgot about him after his release, you'll only get reminded of his existence when you pull him as your next 7* champion. MCOC's Art Team never fails (except for Nikoru) and Sandman is the quintessential example of a champ who looks and moves so effin cool but actually sucks. They really went top on his animations as each blow looks like they're gonna pound your booty... but nah, they're just big pillows. I really hope that they buff him because I honestly don't know what even the purpose of his kit is.

・Super-Skrull
All the Fantastic Four's abilities on a single champ? This skrull is a comic nerd's wet dream but apparently he only possess 25% of the power of each of the Fantastic Four. Jack of all Trades, Master of None. This chimera's kit has the worst effort-to-result ratio. He needs to get back in the lab.

Champions that graduated from this list:

・Purgatory
The #LooksCoolButSucks tag was created after she was released. For an OG Kabam character, her champion release was hyped up because of how cool her model and animations are. OG Kabam champions are really cool because their design can really be integrated into the canon Marvel mythos (except for the Yugioh looking Eidols) and Purgatory was 'top' top. Unfortunately, after her release, she got stuck as a war defender on nodes where she can surprise the opponent with that SP2. I'm really happy to know, after I came back from a long hiatus, that she was buffed and is now actually a good champ. Changed Tag to #LooksCool.

・Red Skull
His design, his posture, his demeanor = Badass. His old kit = Cute. Really cool update for this champ. Kinda annoying on defense though.

・Captain Britain?
Psylocke is my Marvel bias. Marvel R*vals is giving her her flowers and it's finally time that we'll get a proper Psylocke variant. I hope we can tag her #LooksCool.

Who are yours?

    Omg THANK YOU!
    IM SO WITH YOU ABOUT SUPER SKRULL

    The kit massacres badly what he's supposed to be. I don't feel like I'm playing with a Skrull who have all the F4 combined when playing him, abilities wise.

    I don't think maker sucks. He just doesn't stand out. In BGs, he feels like shuri, he won't feel good punching up and he isn't needed unless the meta is restrictive. Similar to shuri, most people don't run her unless she's at the highest rank or the meta makes her shine or they just don't have any domino counter available. In war, he has the utility, but so far nothing special that makes him standout than make him a must have over currently available champs.

    Except for being a hard counter to Captain Britain

    There are already viable counters for her. It’s like saying Jack is a must have cause he hard counters onslaught. I never said he has no uses, just nothing stands out for him to be needed

    But those aren’t really immune to her damage, they can mitigate it or regenerate but they don’t ignore it. Maker ignores her unavoidable damage.
