So,
We all know the Hercules won the completion and we know he will have persistent abilities . Let’s pretend we are a designer for Kabam and think about what type of kit he should have : for the sake of this , let’s focus on his kit and whatever kit gets the most likes we will start part 2 of his actually abilities and how to use that SP2,SP2, SP3 and passives. Each as a series and I will post the winner of the previous abilities until we have a full champ! I have attached his abilities below. Let’s also keep it in Kabams ideal cosmic champ.
Here is Kabams idea on cosmic champs :
Overview
What kind of Champions are in the Cosmic Class? They are beings with access to the primordial forces of the universe including cosmic entities, powerful alien races, and sometimes even some gods.
Cosmic Champions often need to power up before they can unleash their full power. The attack strategy for Cosmic Champions revolves around the specific effects of their buffs and how best to use those to your advantage.
On Offense
Abilities
Armor Break is a very powerful counter to tank-like Champions that rely on Armor Up to boost their defenses.
True Strike and True Damage are designed to bypass high armor and resistances, with True Strike completely negating Evade and Auto-Block.
Fury, Cruelty and other attack buffs help to capitalize on their ability to shred the Opponent’s defenses.
Gameplay Mechanics
Cosmic Champions steadily power themselves up with unique and often permanent buffs.
They synchronize specific actions with the timing of their buffs.
Champion Examples: Captain Marvel, Hyperion, Corvus Glaive, Venom.
On Defense
Abilities
Break through the enemy’s attacks with Unstoppable and Unblockable Buffs.
Power Gain Buffs allow them to launch Special Attacks more often – delivering consistent, high, damage.
Auto-Block, Physical Resistance, and Regeneration Buffs contribute to overall tankiness of the Cosmic Class.
Gameplay Mechanics
Accumulate threatening defensive buffs.
Cosmic Champions are resistant to Power control abilities found in the Tech Class.
Champion Examples: Terrax, Annihilus, Vision (Aarkus), Medusa.
Common Abilities and Other Notes
Aptitude Buffs.
Energy Damage is common in this Class.
Here is a list of Hercules abilities( Wiki)
Hercules possesses the typical powers of an Olympian god, including superhuman strength, durability, speed, reflexes, stamina and endurance. He is the strongest of the Olympians, being capable of feats such as lifting and hurling a giant sequoia tree, smashing rocks to powder,[132] sealing an entire cliff around an opponent with his bare hands,[16] knocking out a yellow-crested Titan,[133] and dragging the island of Manhattan[25] (though this was later retconned to be merely a boast he had made, and not a genuine feat).
[134][135] His superstrong legs allow him to run at speeds of over 100 mph, and leap over a hundred feet into the air. He can withstand blows from Thor,[136] and possesses a complete resistance to high caliber bullets.[137]
Hercules is highly skilled in archery, boxing, Greco-Roman wrestling, and claims to have invented the martial art Pankration.[67] In combat he occasionally wields a golden-looking adamantine mace - stated and shown to be equal in durability to Thor's own mystical hammer Mjolnir[138] (though it is not enchanted with additional abilities as Mjolnir is) - forged by the Greek god Hephaestus. As an Olympian, he is resistant to all earthly diseases, possesses a healing factor, immortality, and also has some immunity to magic.
However, his strength can be taken by significant Olympian magic, such as that of Zeus.[133]

You had buff stealing in there which I don’t think is a kit of a cosmic champ.
Exhaustion in there
Weakness in there
Slow debuff = true strike buff replacement
Regen: I like the dash back and regen.
Evade: not part of cosmic kits
They also said they he will have persistent abilities and this kit doesn’t go with that.
I love the names of all the abilities, and they are so creative!
B. Cosmic class is all about racking up buffs. That's why most of his abilities are buffs instead of passives.
C. Kabam said in a post about the different class types that champions abilities come before class type, and Herc's Heavy abilities flow with his labors. Without some, the others won't work.
D. While Weakness and Exhaustion are normally part of the science kit, this case is different because Herc is applying the debuffs to himself.
E. True strike would be more Cosmic than slow, but the idea is that he ensnares his opponents with his heavy, and true strike doesn't stop unstoppable.
Ea. Hah, stop unstoppable.
F. Evade is an all-around ability, not limited to one class.
G. His labors are persistent throughout the quest.
H. Thanks. I'm glad you like the names, but I technically didn't come up with them. Those are the names of the original Hercules's tasks.
Thanks for your feedback. My reply looks a little matter-of-fact and cold to me, so I'm breaking it up by saying I genuinely appreciate your comment.
Hercules:
Passive - take 90% reduced damage from bleed, poison, frostbite, and cold-snap; immune to fatigue and rupture (maybe armor break as well, depends on how I feel about it later); immune to degeneration.
Godlike reflexes - Hercules possesses a 7% chance to evade all attacks. This will not trigger while blocking.
Godlike healing factor - for every 20 hits in his combo meter, activate a 5-second regen buff, healing for x% of max health. This effect will not trigger while suffering from an incinerate or nova flame effect. Hercules's regen rate cannot be reversed or go below 0.
Shield of Perseus - Hercules gains additional energy resistance while blocking.
Heavy attacks and Pre-fight ability - Hercules's heavy attacks utilize his bowmanship, allowing him to inflict debuffs based on which rotation he is in.
Flames of Hephaestus ~ incinerates the opponent for x damage over 5 seconds decreasing block proficiency and perfect block chance. Additionally, while the opponent is under an incinerate effect, Hercules is able to strike critically against blocking opponents.
Blood of Hydra ~ inflicts acid burn debuff dealing x damage over 5 seconds.
Mark of Ares ~ bleeds the opponent for x damage over 5 seconds and inflicts slow debuff for 5 seconds.
Helm of Hades ~ allows Hercules to go invisible for 10 seconds. Every time the opponent misses, they instantly degenerate 1% of their max health.
(I like the idea of completing 12 missions to fully ramp up this character, inspiration creds to @Mars_Ultor)
Persistent Charges - up to 12; at the beginning of each quest, start with 0 charges. Complete labors to earn charges, each labor can only be completed once per quest and provides him with additional abilities corresponding to the labors he's completed.

Hercules gains x additional attack for each hit in his combo meter.
Attack: 2826
Passive:
an enhanced immune system grants him full immunity to all poisons of the battle realm.

Persistent Charges
At the beginning of a quest, Hercules gains 1 persistent charge. He gains 1 charge every time he defeats a champion or uses a Special attack 3, and gains 2 charges if he knocks out a #L or #XL champion. Each persistent charge will grant hercules a God of war buff. Max 10 persistent charges.
God of Power- Buff
At the start of a fight, for each persistent charge, hercules will gain a God of Power buff, granting him:
+ 1413 attack rating
+ 725 critical rating and critical damage rating
+ 1400 armour rating
additionally, while fighting #L or #XL champions, Hercules will gain:
+ 1000 block penetration
+ 33% combat power rate
all evade and auto block abilities have -120% reduced ability accuracy.
Basic attacks: for each persistent charge, hercules will inflict a non-stacking disorient debuff, reducing defensive ability accuracy by 33%, and block proficiency by 50% for 9 seconds. against all #L or #XL champions, this debuff can stack multiple times.
Heavy attacks: Inflict an armour break debuff, reducing armour rating by 944 for 9 seconds. against #L or #XL champions, this armour break is permanent.
Special Attacks
Hercules gains different effects during special attacks depending on the amount of buffs.
1-2 buffs: Gain an unblockable buff for 4 seconds
3-5 buffs: Gain a permanent True strike buff, preventing opponents from evading or auto-blocking.
6-8 buffs: Gain a precision and cruel buff for 12 seconds, increasing critical rating by 50% and critical damage rating by 150%
9-10 buffs: Each hit of your special attack will deal a burst of 1413 damage.
Special attack 1:
4 hits. Each hit has a 50% chance to inflict a bleed debuff, dealing 282.6 damage per buff per second, over 12 seconds. Against #L and #XL champions, the chance of this triggering is increased to 100%.
Special attack 2:
3 hits. this attack gains +706.5 attack rating for each buff active on hercules and each debuff on the opponent.

Against #L and #XL champions, the concussion debuff is paused for 0.5 seconds every time Hercules lands an attack.

This attack inflicts an armour break debuff for 32 seconds, reducing armour rating by 11742. against #L and #XL champions, Hercules will additionally gain a Passive Fury, increasing attack rating by +7065.
Signature ability: Olympian immortality
Whenever Hercules reaches a buff threshold of 5, he will gain an indestructible for (12) seconds.
this ability then goes on cool down for 45 seconds
When fighting #L or #XL champions, Hercules reduces Defensive Ability Accuracy by (7.5)% for each buff active on himself and each debuff active on the opponent
I also see you added the nullify resistance in there which is also good , cold snap immunity , and poison I believe would be good for his kit.
The regen buff is actually quite good, it allows you to parry heal . I think his heal strength should be associated with a persistent charge of some sort.
I really appreciate the detail you put into this and he has the damage ramp up potential, I can see why you capped the aptitude’s for two.
1. KITTY ARMOR, BEST ARMOR (Name based off of someone else's idea)
with BLACK PANTHER, KILLMONGER
HERCULES: Any damage Hercules would take while invincible is dealt back to the opponent as a burst of energy
damage.
KILLMONGER: Indestructible passives can't be triggered through block.

bleed duration. In addition, gain 10% cruelty for each bleed debuff on the opponent.
