Buff Suggestions (older champions)

I’ve been looking at some of the older champs through more of a critical scope lately and how we can slightly tweak them to even the playing field. EVERYONE: add your input or other champs, and if you see and irrational buff idea from me feel free share your thoughts as well.
GAMBIT: Much like Nebula, Gambit should continue to charge his prowess even when being struck on a block. Once charged and activated, his BASE attack as well as special damage should be increased with a chance to stun the opponent based on number of charges. This would make Gambit an offensive threat as he was intended to be in the comics.
MAGNETO: I think first and foremost he needs a new animation for his SP1. It’s a little slow and outdated, and should be something faster, more fluid and easier to connect from a distance. Also, the base for his defensive ability accuracy should be more around 50% for all metallic opponents.
COLOSSUS: A major upgrade would be required for Colossus to be useable for high-tier attack teams. Initially, his armor should mimic Wolverine’s regen ability in that it can be triggered by attacking or being attacked. The armor should stack, and each should give his base attack an increase. If he reaches a max, an “armor overload” could be triggered and a MASSIVE fury being gained (like Kingpin’s overload) and then go to a short cooldown state before being able to gain armor up again. Also, his SP1 should be replaced with a ranged charge attack (like Juggy’s SP2 combined with Starlord’s SP1) to give him some versatility.
ANTMAN: I’m not the biggest Antman fan in the world, but I do think he needs to be buffed. He only has two abilities, both of which are moderately underpowered. I think he should have some sort of passive evade ability (like Wasp) which could actually be linked to his glancing ability (glance = 20% chance to evade for example). I’d also suggest enhancing his critical hit rate based on how many evades he has during the fight.
HAWKEYE: Much like Winter Soldier’s ability to change ammo, Hawkeye should have the ability to change arrows for different utility or attack functions. Examples would be power drain, reduced ability accuracy and poison arrows. His SP2 should also hit significantly harder.
GAMBIT: Much like Nebula, Gambit should continue to charge his prowess even when being struck on a block. Once charged and activated, his BASE attack as well as special damage should be increased with a chance to stun the opponent based on number of charges. This would make Gambit an offensive threat as he was intended to be in the comics.
