Cable has had a pretty rich comic history, however to much dismay, was never really portrayed properly in the Contest of Champions in terms of power level compared to other "meta" champions like Phoenix, Carnage and many others. The changes are not so subtle and are marked with a ^. For a comparison, there will be his original spotlight link at the bottom of this post.
*All stats based on 4 Star, Rank 5, Level 50, Signature Level 99
Health: 16268
Attack: 1159
Max PI:
Without Signature: 3512
With Signature (99): 4406
Basic Abilities: Regeneration, Incinerate, Concussion, True Strike
^Passive – Techno Organic Repairs^
-Each time Cable fills a bar of Power, he has a 25% chance to Regenerate (20% of Base Health) over 10 seconds. If the Regeneration does not activate, it gains a Flat 25% chance to activate for the next bar of Power filled.
-When ever the Regeneration buff activates, all Flat increases are removed. This ability stops working below 25% Health.
*This means that on his 4th bar of Power, he will have a guaranteed proc of the Regeneration. Provided he isn't under the influence of Ability Accuracy reduction.
^Passive – Belle^
-As Cable stores more power, he begins to fight off both the Techno Organic Virus and any Degeneration or Poison debuffs currently on him, reducing the damage and duration of the effects up to 85%.
-Additionally, each time Cable is inflicted with one of those debuffs, he gains a 10% Prowess passive. Maximum of 10.
Passive – Techno Organic Infection
-When caused to Bleed, Cable has a 100% chance to trigger his Heavy Attack Degeneration on his Opponent.
Heavy Attack – Techno Organic Strike
-100% Chance to Degenerate Non-Robotic opponents for up to 5795 damage over 15 seconds.
-Strength of Degenerate scales inverse of your Opponent’s current Power.
Special 1: Short Controlled Bursts – Cable knocks back his opponent, making space to use his plasma rifle.
-This attack is Unblockable if you are currently under the effects of a True Strike Buff.
Special 2: Charge Shot – A telekinetic wave, followed up by a high energy charged blast from his rifle.
-This attack Incinerates the enemy, dealing 1159 Energy Damage over 10 seconds. This effect also removes Perfect Block Chance and reduces Block Proficiency by 50%
-This attack has a 100% chance to give the opponent a Concussion, reducing their Ability Accuracy by 85% for 15 seconds. The potency of this effect is affected by Class relationships.
^Special 3: TK Rifle – Cable uses his powers to enhances his plasma rifle, locks on his target, and unleashes a withering barrage of firepower.^
-100% Chance to grant True Strike for 15 seconds. This allows him to ignore Armor, Passive Evasion and Auto-Block.
This attack Incinerates the enemy, dealing 5795 Energy Damage over 10 seconds. This effect also removes Perfect Block Chance and reduces Block Proficiency by 50%
^Signature Ability – Techno Organic Virus Suppression^
-Cable’s immense mutant powers are constrained from having to constantly keep the Techno Organic Virus in check. As the strength of the virus wanes, Cable has a 40% chance to gain 16.5% Power over 10 seconds, each time he fills a bar of power. If Cable activates Regeneration at the same time as the Power Gain, they combine into a passive Psionic charge.
