OK, we've done most underrated, now lets tackle the overrated.
i'm forever hearing on the chat and YouTube that you must have this champ, he's a God etc....
I find some of these lacking and not living up to expectations.
As before, I've probably missed a load and some you won't agree with. But these are probably down to me being naff and not being able to use them correctly

Cap WWII: Great block and bleed. But I find the love for him overwhelming. Much better out there.
Dr Strange: When he 1st hit the scene he was amazing, I feel they've downgraded him down too much.
Nightcrawler: Was annoying at 1st, once you learn how to fight, he's very easy. Doesn't hit hard at all. Probably better not duped.
RR: Too much of a glass cannon. Great to fight with, far too easy to fight. Also requires a lot of signature for best ability.
Magik: Again I think they've pulled her back from what she used to be, also very easy to fight. I find it extremely frustrating when they pull champs back. Takes a lot of effort to get the 5* to rank 3 and 4, so they should get stat locked IMO
I have all the above at 4 or 5* and duped, probably more out there but I don't have them
The only thing people talk about is SP2 bleed and there are a bunch of better bleeders.
He can get boss kills on minimal health, doesn't trigger MD either. How you come to it being a "crutch" I think you mean "Clutch" btw, I have no idea
I'd love to see him given a couple of interesting abilities such as no opponent power generation while under stun or ability to automatically only lose 10% health from a level 3 special or any unblockable attack as part of safeguard if you dash back and hold block for 1 second, which then gives you "deflection" and lasts 12 seconds, with an 8 second cooldown, so deflecting enemy unblockable attacks with his shield. Would get him back to boss-killer territory where he belongs, a proper Hyperion killer, a real marvel legend!
Special mention to Dr Strange, once mighty, now paltry, bottom of the class. He's not overrated, simply cos no-one rates him at all any more. I still really love playing with him, but only for fun on event quests, wish I could use him elsewhere but he wouldnt last the course, one laggy missed input from the constant bad server stuttering on an AQ boss special attack and he is toast. Just too squishy with no opponent power control ability unlike voodoo, he's a sorcerer, surely he could conjour something up. Just a simple +15% buff to his health and attack (back to where he was 2 years ago) would be great, with the proportional increase to his health steal to keep the same % of his total health as the health steal. Would put him more in line with ghost rider who stole his spot in the mystics. Its such a shame to lose the Dr, he was fantastic fun to play with.
Perfect example is vs. Kingpin boss in master event. He will take 0 damage most the time because rages count as buffs I assume. Yes its a long fight b/c of class weakness but who cares, almost all the times if fought kingpin to 100% the event using my 4/40 cap ww2, I took out kingpin and ended with nearly 0 hp lost, even with the gamblers fate rng being dumb
Not only that, even a 20% revive on ww2 has you going for quite some time.
TLDR; I was noob once and was like "lol ww2 for noobs cause lol block, l2intercept or parry kids"
Now im like "wow thank god I brought the ever so reliable ww2 with me"
As for WW2 - Yes there are better champs out there... but WW2 overall is one of the best balanced champs in the game. He's kind of that Swiss army knife where he is just really useful to have especially on story quests.
Star-Lord is not on your list he is by far the most overrated champ for me
Rocket was never an overly hyped champ IMO, and DS was nerfed.. that's why I voted cap.
A guy that can crit up to 30k as a 4* isn't overrated lol. He just needs a skilled player to hold his hit chain.
Unless someone else in your alliance has one. Then he isn't worth anything and worth about as much as a Spider Gwen on unblockable 1.
If you think NC is OVERRATED then I do t know what to tell you. Hes actually drastically UNDERRATED. I took him through the mutant stage in 5.3 and he cleared house. Switch him to swashbuckling in quests and marvel at the damage he does.
Hes awesome against Dorm in AQ even without the bleed. He can perfect block SP2 all day meaning less of a focus on baiting the SP1
But yeah, magik is very overrated.
