Stick (Skill Class)
"Victory lies not in strength... but in focus."
🧬 Class: Skill
---
📜 Character Bio
A blind martial arts master and mentor to heroes like Daredevil and Elektra, Stick is the unshakable leader of the ancient Chaste order. Tempered by decades of war with The Hand, he has honed his body and mind to perfection, using echolocation, chi control, and ruthless discipline to destroy evil at its root. Though old in age, his skill in battle surpasses all but the most elite warriors of the Contest. To face Stick is to face every mistake you’ve ever made—and be punished for it.

He also gains miss immunity on sig despite already having miss immunity?
And on a personal note, you can just post images from the comics or the shows, you don't need to use ai slop
If 90% of the post is AI and you don't see an issue with that, you can definitely see past the ai art.
It's fine if you rely on ai for stock images and grammar stuffs, not fine if you generate everything from there and copypaste. Here.
I see him as having relatively low health when compared to most champions but due his marital arts mastery would have easy access to Glance. He wouldn't be a great defender apart from Glancing but would be a good attacker if played well.
Having spent untold years training, Stick could have a powerful Pre-Fight ability that allows him to select the approach he will use to defeat his opponent. Armour Breaks, Disorients, Concussions, all are possible tools he could employ. Knowing the opponent, and picking the most suitable approach for their demise, is essential to playing Stick.
These debuffs on the opponent would increase his damage output similar to Prowess buffs on Mutant champs. His Sig ability would turn these Debuffs into Passives, denying opponents the ability to Purify them as easily.
He wouldn't have many synergies. Elektra and Psylocke are good candidates. He's got to have a powerful synergy with Daredevil (Classic) and DDHK, maybe all three each starting the fight on a bar of power. A special synergy with Elektra would allow her to inflict Degeneration instead of Bleeds if Stick was knocked out, aka Black Sky.
See? There's the basis of a kit and no AI in sight.
Ai isn't made by us to compete with it which is better ai or us.. it is there to help us do things faster.
And if you trust software built by AI, then anything that goes wrong is the responsibility of the person who clicked 'generate'. It's still their code, even if AI wrote it for them.
Or 'Stick' even...
Ai is definitely better than us in theoretical aspects but can't correlate things with real world anomalies and it's deviation from ideal definition most of the times.
