Send Help: Blade OP

My favorite part about this game? It definitely has to be spending countless hours, resources, and a lot of money to obtain 5* champs. Ranking them up to r4 and using them as an AW boss is the absolute best - especially if a 4/55 or 5/65 Blade exists in the game. It warms my soul watching him one shot our AW bosses. Might as well not even place a boss, smh.

If Kabam cannot understand that Blade is in fact overpowered, I’ve lost all hope in them. Send hate mail to me, I’d love to ignore everyone’s plea’s for not nerfing him. If you don’t think he should be, you’re fooling yourself. Don’t give me the, “he takes skill to master”. If you have one thumb and the ability to look at a screen- you can win with him.

So you don't have blade and it upsets you correct? You say he takes no skill but I can tell you don't have him. AA was used to one shot the all powerful magik and people went nuts. Anyone that can bleed and be poisoned was easy to beat.

Your bosses getting one shot in AW has to do with your matchup and choice of boss as much as it does blade. Who did you choose as a boss?

RIP mystic wars. Good riddance

Mystics are not hard bosses to beat with skill. Been this way before Blade entered the contest. Magik can be countered by more than just Blade, same with Juggs and Dorm. Maybe it’s time to change up your boss.

you are getting 3 or 4 blade anyway just don't complen for the god sake

SnakeEyes69

NO.....Blade or any other champ should NEVER BE NERFED. BUFF & Update the rest of the champs. I have Blade...but IMO Stark Spidey is better!!!

ESF

He's never gonna be nerfed because they don't want Mystic Wars ever again. If they nerfed him, you all would go right back to it.

Blade isn't getting nerfed because he is the nerf.

Agreed. But lets be real... 99% of use will get a 3* (really not even worth mentioning the 4*

).

I have skill ISO just waiting on him even when it is a 3*. I am guessing he will be viable even as a 3* for things like Act 4 ec.

@JamiePud so the rest of us who cant afford 5/5 MD and don't have a duped r4 5* Magik should just suffer and keep wasting resources trying to kill her as an AW boss? We are just supposed to accept that Magik should be the only AW boss ever and no one should counter that? Your statement is so completely off base that you probably shouldn't be allowed to post ever again. This game is about change. New champs are going to be introduced that blade cant counter. Iceman would be a great AW boss to counter blade. He's not science, dimensional being and can't bleed. No one feels sorry because you invested in Magik. I for one am super stoked i can take a AW boss down. Blade has immensely helped my progression in the game because hes a good champ. No where near over powered either. Take a box of tissues and go cry in a corner.

They are now buffing trash champions instead of nerfing Blade. He will have counters soon. Who knows it might he Luke Cage, the morning irony then would be whimsical

Boboman

Come don't forgot about Quake she is good for AW

Blade sent MD and Mystic Wars packing! Good riddance! He's the best thing that ever happened to this game in a while.

Blade takes no skill? And putting 5 points in MD and ranking up a Magik or Dorm does? How much skill does it take to place someone on defense and have the AI shake us down for units with unavoidable damage? None. Zero. Total money-grab.

And you guys want the money grab back??!

Dirty defenders can all get lost. Anything that gives us better offense is good for the game and for the community. No one likes cheap defenders and never should.

RichiesDad79

I have a 4* Blade just sitting at r1 because I'm lucky if I can get 1 skill catalyst from grinding the skill proving ground to death, and also I see nothing incredibly remarkable about him. Sure he's a bit better than most, but not by an insane amount. People should not be crying for nerf ever. Why would you want to screw over another player? If your offense or defense is not up to par, it's on YOU to make the changes in YOUR OWN approach. It's not someone elses fault that you are unable to place an adequate defense. If you are placing bosses, I would assume you are leader. That means it's your job to place as tight of a defense as possible. Knowing that Blade is a popular attack choice, you should be placing someone who can defend effectively. Once again, it's no one else's fault and no one else should have to suffer from their champ being nerfed because your skills are under par.

I've thought about taking my 5/65 iceman as close as possible to sig 200 and using him as a war boss, but unless his coldsnap kills you he's just too easy to fight (see ice pheonix)

Magik has been a terrible AW boss ever since Archangel was introduced

I have news for you....as the game progresses, they’re probably going to be adding more and more counters for mystic defenders in war.

Sorry your days of placing defense and laughing at the number of kills the AI is getting for you are numbered. Apparently you believe your “countless hours, resources, and money” should never be matched by someone else spending countless hours, resources, and money.

(And I say this as the owner of a five star magik, dorm, and Mordo)

My only thoughts on all this is how easy he is to pilot and subsequently one shot a boss.

Yes AA can take down Magik but even he requires a bit of dancing around, timing your heavies right, your blocks, etc.

Blade - I can show my grandmother how the controls work and she'd be able to one shot an AW boss.

That's what I disagree with.

All you need to do is land one heavy that triggers bleed with AA and it’s pretty much over. Against magik, AA is just as brainless a counter as Blade, if not more so due to 100% ability shutdown that occurs once he gets going and the stunning he stun immune. Blade can never do better than 58%. Couple neuros and don’t have to worry about baiting specials like with blade. Don’t really have to worry about MD due to his mechanics. Just sit back and watch her melt.

That said, even though it was clear kabam made him as a direct counter to mystic wars, no one had a major problem with AA despite his autopilot destruction of Magik and Juggs because he couldn’t do anything to dorm. Enter blade.

Rip mystic wars

Blade does not need to be nerfed. He is a great champion and brings needed balance to the dominance of mystic defenders. With danger sense, he is amazing, in matchups without it...he's just ok. This is the main reason he does not need to be nerfed. SW for instance was amazing in any matchup pre nerf. That's the difference.

hungryhungrybbq

PS...Sometimes the game changes and we need to adapt. We switch aw bosses all the time. It's part of the game.. and frankly makes it more interesting.

Example of an OP champ who took no skill to use: Scarlet Witch (peace be upon her)

Blade isn't even comparable to that.

I can show my grandmother how to play Starlord as well for the damagez.

MD against dexterity combined with unavoidable damage is broken.

The counter to this broken mechanic is another broken thing called Blade.

Those who don’t have him now suffer from two broken mechanics in the game. That is not the way to solve the problem.

Blade is clearly OP. The problem that he solves is clearly OP as well.

Magik is **** when faced with other magik

If both parties in a fight are OP, then, when facing each other, neither is.

Kabam is finally listening to us. Instead of nerfing Magik and co, or nerfing a great offensive mastery like MD, they created something strong enough to counter. They added to the game instead of taking away. Fail to see the problem with it.
