Drax update - His main ability is now useless

We are talking about Astral evade, not Vulture buff. They are two different abilities that work differently and have nothing in common.
So yes, bypassing astral evade is not an ability that drax possess.
No, no, no, and no. We are not talking about Mordo for God's sake...
If Kabam wants to improve Astral evade, let it be. But they're not improving Mordo, they're nerfing Drax against all evade champs. Do you get it now?
Actually they changed drax and then found this interaction was a bug. After review they decided to keep it and posted such info on the forums. So it is indeed a nerf since they decided to keep this design.
They changed drax before mordo was released. Then they confirmed this interactio to be a bug, and not something that should happen

That being said, I still think this issue needs to be reconsidered by Kabam. As I stated before, even though this change to frame rates may not have been done to intentionally nerf Drax, it still negatively affects the way he functions, taking away a beneficial trait which players could use to counter tricky fights like Mordo or Classic Ultron. Before Domino, Drax was the only champ with a double hit first medium, giving him quite a unique niche. Players are now upset that this anomaly was removed, therefore changing all of Drax's interactions with evade champs. This is further worsened by the fact that Drax was never super powerful to begin with. Now, those of us that have him 4/55 are simply left with a mediocre damage dealer with low prestige and no utility.
This pretty much sums up how I feel about the whole Drax situation. What makes it worst for me was that I didn’t even realize his medium double hit vs Evade champs was gone till I read thru the whole post. I was both lucky and glad I didn’t have to find out the hard way.
Can't help but bring up Cap Marvel and Miss Marvel, I think that was literally two years. If not it was close to that.
Why are you quoting random people that are not Kabam employees? makes no sense
I dont see any Mordo in that pic
No. But do you see the fact Kabam admit the Drax's specific ability with his first or not?
Pretty tired to explain to ppl who don't get game mechanics.
You make some good points but again, across ALL devices Drax ALWAYS worked against Mordo and evade champs. All devices, always. That is a potential HUGE pool for device OS, configuration, and speed, and it worked the same on ALL of them. Until now. Kabam then acts like this was "buggy" or something, and they fixed it.
On a second note, as far as "intended" and "true ability" and the wording that Kabam uses in the descriptions is worth a large amount of scrutiny right now I believe. There's a lack of trust in that area across the boards it seems.
Lmao "people who don't understand game mechanics". You cant be serious, you cant even tell the difference between Vulture Decoy and mordo's astral evade. Vulture's Decoy is closer Hoods invisibility where attacks miss (not evaded), in vulture's case the miss is only on the first hit. It is not the same as an evade. Its always Gold 1 alliance members that think they know everything.
Kabam: How about, previously intended or not, just make Drax's double hit work on evade and Astral evade. Just give to the community and give him the ability officially. Make the ability official and put it in his description and surprise the heck out of everyone. Why not, honestly?
No one should be upset by this since we have all already assumed this to be working properly.
You could use some PR. Win win.
Think about it.
