Subject: Request to Buff Dracula
Dracula is an iconic Marvel character, and his in-game visual and thematic design are excellent. However, his current ability set does not fully reflect his stature or lore. While he is enjoyable to play, his overall damage output feels underwhelming, which limits his viability—particularly in Battlegrounds. Outside of niche matchups such as against Deathless Thanos, he struggles to effectively counter a wide range of Cosmic champions. A balance adjustment or partial rework would greatly enhance his relevance and justify his inclusion in competitive play.
Suggestions:
1.Buff Control & Steal Mechanics
Dracula’s sword attacks should have the ability to nullify buffs by default. Additionally, his Special Attacks could include a permanent buff steal mechanic, stealing buffs from the defender at 66.6% of their original potency.
2. Regeneration Enhancement
Considering Dracula’s lore of rapid healing, his current regeneration rate feels average. During Dire Degeneration, his regeneration should be significantly increased.
3. Mystical Abilities & Defensive Utility
In the comics, Dracula possesses powerful mystical abilities such as mind control and weather manipulation. Reflecting this, Inverted Controls could be introduced as a defensive mechanic. Furthermore, while in Dire state, his Special 2 could apply Shock debuffs, similar in function to Red Skull’s mechanics.
4. Blood-Based Power Scaling
Since Dracula’s power is derived from blood, an interaction with Bleed effects would be thematically appropriate. For every sixth Bleed debuff that expires on the defender, Dracula could apply a buff (such as Fury) to the opponent, which he can later steal using his Special Attacks.
