A Question about Blade

Member Posts: 2,888 ★★★★★
I want to know, that once his 15k 5* feature has run, and he has been the GMC feature for 300 units each... will he be nerfed?
We seen something similar last year, leading upto the DS, SW nerf etc, we were offered the chance to rank up a specific class of champ, most of whom did a champ who ended up being nerfed.
So I don't want to blow my 5* shards for Blade, if you already know he is going to be nerfed or adjusted.
So just want some confirmation please.

After a month of daily threads on this, and consistent denials from Kabam in response, and considering your daily activity level on these forums, I can only assume this is a troll thread. What are you expecting to achieve from it?
Kabam: "Ah, you finally cracked us DarkestDestroyer, the 1,537th thread on this subject was the charm! We're nerfing him! And yes, we're telling you before the release of his crystal, to save you shards, because that's how we roll!"
Er, no.
I don't want him nerfed, I just want confirmation from Kabam that the plan isn't to nerf him in March or whatever right after his crystals go away.
There will be many refund requests if that's the case
Another nerf Blade post? This is getting old already. Look, I have blade at 5/65 and yes while he excels at a majority of the game, he is not the BEST champion for EVERY situation in the game.
Take Act 5.4.6 for example. The final boss is an OG Ultron. Since he is a robot and cannot bleed, Blade's bleed mechanic won't work on Ultron. And since his bleed doesn't work, that also means that his increased power gain by being closer to a bleeding opponent won't work either. Which means his sp2, while it does get decent damage when it crits, won't do nearly as much damage as it could potentially do if he was also able to bleed his opponent.
And yes I know what you're thinking "But concepcion29 he still has his amazing regeneration!' and yes you're right. But so does Wolverine and Ghost Rider. So going against OG Ultron in 5.4.6 with a decent hitting champ and potentially infinite regen (because remember he doesn't have an increased power gain anymore so he gains power at the SAME rate as EVERY OTHER champion now) won't be as effective as taking a Star Lord or Stark Spidey for example. It would take much long to use Blade (with the constant dashing back, holding block, and recovering health) because his attacks don't his as hard then using let's say a SL who's damage output ramps up much higher and I'm able to take out OG Ultron much quicker.
Is that still not enough to satisfy EVERYONE'S skepticism that Blade still isn't the best champion for every situation? Okay here's another example. What about cornered nodes? You can't parry the opponent anymore because your parry causes bleeds which causes an X% increased power gain. Same goes for your specials because all your specials cause bleed. So your left playing overly cautious and slower to avoid bleeding the opponent or having to constantly bait and evade their specials.
Look my point here is, EVERY champion has situations in the game that they excel in and are just horrible choices for. If you like a champion and need them for their particular utility (i.e. triple immunity, regen, bleed, power control) then go for them. Just because the community is speculating that a certain champion will be nerfed (even though there have been countless posts by Kabam saying that they won't) doesn't mean you shouldn't try and go for them. And if I'm coming off as an ass, then that is not my intent. I am just tired of seeing nerf nerf nerf nerf nerf Blade and want to show that he is not ideal for every situation you come across. I hope this helps and good luck with your pulls should you go for him.
Until the next Champ is introduced.
Good job folks 😂😂😂
