    Comparatively speaking, she is mediocre among Cosmic class....

    If you don’t have Corvus/CMM/Hyperion/Venom/Medusa/Vision Aarkus/Silver Surfer, and you have her and really want to rank her up, feel free to do it~

    Otherwise, she is hard to be in the priority.....

    More importantly, one of the reasons that I need to rank up a Cosmic champ is they somehow have advantage to counter some annoying tech champions, like Iron Man (IW), Warlock, Dark Hawk, G2099. KK just cannot do anything against them~

    I mean if you wanna rank her up, rank her up regardless of who you have.

    She's decent. It's just that compared to what she's up against, she's an ant standing next to a herd of monsters.

    In her class alone, there are much better options available. So the incentive for using her just isn't there.

    Yeah, but you still shouldn’t be sad and act like you’ve pulled trash when you get Kamala out of a crystal
    I for some reason cant seem to pull her, if I did, I personally wouldn't mind and would actually rank her up because she's fun to use.

    "Trash" is what you make it out to be.


    Yeah, I know. Just tired of people hating on her on forums. She’s better than they give her credit for.

    Satan herself smh
    Yeah she's criminally hated on lol
    She’s great fun. Use my 5/50 in war to great effect.
    you sure about that?😉

    She’s not bad, with that cmm synergy she can put out some serious damage, not great though either

    She's alright, nothing special, but she's not trash.

    I mean, it’s pretty much what others have said

    She isn’t bad, she’s no groot. But I think that’s the problem. She’s just utterly unremarkable.

    She’s not going to get used because she’s good, nor is she going to get used for the memes

    I pulled the 6* on my alt, and I have a 5* CMM to pair with her. But the problem is, there is literally no reason to use her over CMM. I’ve gotten one amazing cosmic and she’s immediately devalued completely

    In her own class, she is behind a lot of other champs that will help you progress and win fights much better. No champ is really bad, per se, just underperforming in comparison to other champs. In the cosmic class, you would be better off pulling Corvus, CMM, Medusa, Venom, Surfer, Aarkus, Carnage, Nova, Phoenix, Cull, Hype, VTD, The Champion, and King Groot. That's just in her class.

    I assume KK is on the short list for a buff of some sort.

    I’d rather have KK than Phoenix
    Seriously?

    Dude, Phoenix is so much better than KK it's crazy. Phoenix has Power Gain, Incinerate, and Armour Break; and her Awakened ability gives her a really solid solid Regeneration/Invulnerability. KK has poison immunity and can strip Armour Up buffs if she has enough Furies; whilst her Awakened ability makes her Fury effects slightly better.

    Give me Phoenix any day!

    it’s not just armor up buffs. It’s all buffs

    That's surprising - clearly I need to read the Changelog more carefully!

    Found this thread you're in: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/comment/1287621/#Comment_1287621

    It's clearly (historically) a bug: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/193014/kamala-khan-nullifying-buffs-outside-of-her-stated-ability-to-remove-armor-up-buffs

    https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/161596/kamala-khan-nullifies-buffs

    But yes: You're right, she now nullifies all buffs. This a bug that substantially benefitted the players; and which Kabam have clearly decided to keep: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/comment/1384329#Comment_1384329

    And we thought that never happened...

    P.S. That makes her better - but I still prefer Phoenix. KK's Heavy charge mechanic is super-risky, imo. At least now there's a decent payoff.

    Why is she not bad though?

    Because she has decent damage, poison immunity, and a nullify. She can do content, people just don’t like her for some reason
    I'm not sure myself. Just don't like the character much. I think that's the main reason. People don't like the character, maybe she's a little goofy, maybe she's not aimed at your target group. If she had been a so called "god tier" maybe no-one would care that they don't like the character. But she isn't, so why bother.

    I bet she's more liked among those who like the character, maybe identify more with it. I don't...

    I never use the heavy charge mechanic personally. Just spam sp3s

    She's a bit like Howard; sure she can be fun and she has her uses but, there are better options and once you have a better option, you rarely look back.

    You take her through any path in act 6 of your choosing, with her poison immunity and fury buffs utility, and I'll take hyperion, then cap marvel, then cull obsidian, then venom, then medusa. And then of those 6 runs let's see who does it fastest and has the most health at the end.
