Every thing new falcon can cancel with recon.

Hi folks, I wanted to start a thread where people comment all the different nodes and abilities falcon is able to cancel out with recon scan these days.

This was mentioned in the spotlight, but worth repeating: he can negate evade (including mix master), thorns/spiked armor, and rock stacks.

Other things I have found him to cancel are: magik's limbo, immortal hulks immortality, the bleed part of bio hazard (them attacking you can still apply the poison, so be careful), og abominations poison, hela and punishers cheat death mechanic, medusa auto block, Morningstar bleeds, and electros interactive damage. Also he can prevent black panther civil war's armor ups, and keep him from gaining reflective armor charges. However, if he gains armor outside of recon, a newly applied recon will not prevent the stun reflection.

Things i have noticed he doesn't work on are: thor rag power gain counter, pessimist node, modok (Flux charge gives bonus ability accuracy), Phoenix's rite of the phoenix, any type of robotic healing at low health (i.e. hulkbuster, ultron, Gully 2099....), and Power from afar.

Things i havent tested, but think could yield results: killmonger reverberation, aa poison on block, scarlet witch's nonsense, old man logans bleeds, either wolverines regen, and gully 2099 invis.

Thanks in advance everyone. It is my goal that this turns into a community resource and increases everyone's knowledge of the new buffed up champ.

P.s. I am 99% certain falcon cancels immortal hulks immortality. I have done it several times (did not use sp1 to bleed him to death). However, 1 time it still triggered. Maybe recon scan ended a second too soon and I missed it, but if someone else could check this, I'd be grateful.

    This is a very useful list! Thanks! I only have a 2* Falcon so nothing to add but AA and OML are immune to AAR, so I don't think he would counter them.
    Also I don't think Pheonix's rite of the pheonix can be shut down by AAR at all, AA can't prevent it either even with like 5 neuros.

    Lol, nothing stops Phoenix's invulnerability stuff. Not a thing!

    thanks! i forgot they are immune to ability accuracy reduction. also i think you misread, phoenix's ability was in the "doesn't work" category. nothing can stop the phoenix force! ..... except for kabam making a really weak champion.

    So far I have bypassed:

    Thing's Rockstacks
    MODOK autoblock
    Electro damage
    Korg thorns
    Nightcrawler evade
    Spiderverse evades
    Domino lucky, I think.
    Electra AA reduction
    Magik limbo has not took health from me
    Fantastic evade
    Mephisto regen
    Emma Frost inverted controls
    Killmonger reverb
    Mix master node
    If I think of anything else I will let you know

    you must have gotten lucky against modok, because his flux charge can add up to 25% ability accuracy. but it does drastically reduce the chance of activation. but its nice to know it cancels mephistos regen. any chance it also canceled his aura of incineration activation when you hit him?

    Oops my bad! I did get it jumbled in the wrong list.

    There's something with Miss that it can't be countered with AAR unless explicitly specified like Nick, Prof X and Magneto
    And spelthy

    Just wondering does he need to be awaken or have high signature level for him to be effective? Is the ability for Falcon only or it benefits teammates?

    Thanks a bunch for the information.. it helps a lot.

    His sig level makes recon last a bit longer, and gives him more crit rating during its activation. So it's nice to have and makes a big difference on damage output, but all the utility of the champ is there unawakened. Recon does not apply with other champs on the team. His synergies can affect the entire team however, and they all come with some bonus attack %.

    Doesn't Ghost's phasing fail against 5.2 Collector after some time?

    Dip u guys tested vs reflective stun /polka dot? Does it shut down the stun reflection and u can parry as long as recon is on?
  • Cage33Cage33 Member Posts: 57
    @Ganui i tested the reflective stun part of black panther civil wars abilities. i have not tested the node. against BPCW, it does not prevent the stun from returning if the armor up is already there. however, recon can prevent armor from popping up when you are hitting him, so its kinda works to counter him there. i have not tested polka dot either.

    I ran into one issue with falcons lock in ability against thing in the abyss. By the 3rd cycle it simple stops working and thing will continue to gain rock stacks while falcon is locked on. Not sure if it’s a bug or kabam changed it for abyss

    Pretty sure Thing has 100% increased ability accuracy at that point.

    Does he shut down sixth sense too? He should right?
