Blade looks kinda weak

You're comparing him to a champion that has the highest attack in the game? Of course he's going to be weaker if SL has a higher combo. Even with the tier difference.

How's his regen?

I saw a video of a 2/20 sig 5 and it was pretty decent actually. I'm looking forward to seeing a 20+ sig.

That does seem weak. There's a video on youtube of a 5/50 archangel taking him down in just over 100 hits

I thought he was kind of wack too. Hate when they make the blade dull on basics attacks. He's just me imo

I don't think Blade was ever hyped to be like Starlord in terms of raw damage. He just has utility. It might be a different story if you saw him fight a dimensional being like Dormammu, Mephisto, or Magik (he gets increased attack power).

700+ hits, I wouldn't consider that impressive either

I know its Star Lord, but its a 2* Star Lord vs a 4* Blade

His regen better be awesome or he's not worth it.

It wasn't my pic. I got it on line chat. Just thought I'd share though, don't think I'll go for 5* blade now.

Not worth it everyone skip his arena. Won him out of daywalker crystal. Totally worth skipping don’t even bother looking at his arena.

You realize it’s a 2* starlord in the video right?

i just ranked my 4* blade to r3. with courage, assassin, deep wounds, and mutant crit team, took 758 hits for ws. that could have been lower if i went below 50% health sooner, but it seems pretty good to me.

So looks like he's got average or higher damage output then. How's his regen?

His damage doesn't seem to be to good, when I fought him it seemed really low and when I fought with him it seemed really low which kinda sucks.

Though I only fought with him once so far so I need to fight with him a bit more before pass judgement on him.

Definitely he's a disappointing under powered champ. I'm happy for the chance to sit out his arena.

Fpaez87

I was told his regen is meh and only somewhat good against opponents who bleed

Draco2199

From the videos I've seen hes not OP or God tier. Not great but not bad either. Very average.

But but but... I have a 5* skill unlock stone! Maybe if GP crystal is back then I'll try for that.

Gp won't be back until she gets added to the basic pool

Mr_Otter

He’s a SAD knockoff if guillotine but worse

She bleeds more, her regen is more stable, and she has some extra built in armor and her phantasm

Sorry but the Iron Maiden beats the Daywalker in EVERY sense!

"Even with the tier difference."

Yes thank you. I make that distinction on purpose.

Let's take 2* SL versus 4* Blade. My 2* SL is max sig. He has a base attack of 173. His sig at 99 4/40 gives him an additional 8.71 attack per hit of the combo meter. Let's say Blade has a base attack of 1,200 (an average 5/50's attack stat roughly). After some calculations, it will take SL roughly 117.79 (round up to 118) hits until SL reaches Blade's attack and hit 119 will start to surpass Blade's attack. This means if you can keep a combo above 118 SL becomes the superior champ, even as a 2*. With SL doing 500 hits and Blade doing 700, SL easily beats out Blade in terms of raw damage output, but not limited to Blade. You could say that about Medusa, Angela, AA, or Iceman. The only champ a 2* SL couldn't surpass is obviously another SL of a higher tier. This is what I meant by SL having the highest attack in the game even with the tier difference.

There is also one more aspect of comparing champs that bugs me, and that's hits to kill. You cannot effectively compare champs on hits to kill. When using SL, his specials only hit once using an L1, or twice using an L2. Blade's L1 is 3 hits and his L2 is 9 hits, so of course Blade's hits are going to rack up a lot faster. The more important aspect is the time to kill. SL will most likely still kill quicker with a higher attack and his L2 doing massive damage, but if you compare him to Medusa or Mephisto, I think time to kill is the more important testing element.

All I'll say is when players discover Blade's true value they will wish they had him. So glad I pulled him today
