And nobody saying they used hood every day. Only in fights they needed or wanted. As for your trust issues... Why do you think a lot of people want old hood back? Have you seen same feedback on any other buff? Personally I didn't like oml buff, maw tune up made nothing, but nobody really cared, because nobody used them in a first place. As for hood, it's either people who used him don't like it (wich is kinda obvious), or you have to come up with some silly conspiracy theory.
Claire’s Buff immunity is not a fate seal, I’m not 100% sure it interacts the same way with MD the way they hood would because those aren’t nullifies , they are just immune. I could be wrong cause I can’t check at the moment. She also nullifies buffs on hit.
Hood2.0 is not Hood1.0 plus something more, so it is more accurate to say Hood was replaced with another champion and given the same name, rather than Hood got buffed.
Let me put it this way: Hood2.0 is sufficiently different than Hood1.0 that the two champs could coexist in the game simultaneously. They are more different than say Iron Man and Superior Iron Man who both exist in the game. They are more different than Wolverine, X-23, and Old Man Logan are from each other. In fact, they are probably about as different as Spider-Gwen and She Hulk.
The devs *literally* could have added Hood2.0 to the game as a Hood variant and *also* buffed original Hood with slightly better damage mechanics and those two champions would conflict with each other less than some pairs of champions not even based on the same Marvel characters do.
The moment a bug would sell less pots? Cant have that. Fixes the next day.
Kabam really messed up with Hood's "buff"...
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
I personally don't like overly complicated champions that dont even perform better than easier champions. I think its sort of a waste of time.
Hood went from a good 2017 champ to a weird 2020 champ in terms of what happened, and maybe I'm nostalgic but I preferr a good 2017 champ to a weird 2020 champ
Why specifically spend developer time thinking about, and adding that signature ability component, unless you're trying to preserve a feature of Angela you think the players would want to keep?
They took Angela's nullify protection and *added* things to it: Auto block protection and damaging debuff mitigation. To do this decided to change the mechanics of Angela's buff nullify protection, but that seems to be a reasonable compromise between preserving the old while adding the interesting new.
I’ll just leave this here.

Given everything happened to him with last update, rdt is a must anyway imo. I still hope kabam will listen to community and give us hood3.0 sometime later. Maybe will even test him before release
If they are thinking about our feedback on Hood, there is no simple answer to this problem, and it goes beyond Hood: it goes to their core philosophy on how they update all future champions like Hood, and it goes to where you draw the line between removing something that is incidental to improve a champion for the majority of players, and where to decide it is more important to preserve existing functionality and spend more time crafting an update that improves the champion without disturbing existing use cases.
I never said this was an easy decision to make in all cases. I only said Hood was an obvious case where the devs got it wrong. But if they are seriously thinking about this situation, they have to be thinking about the hard cases not just the easy ones.
The Hood post nerf was the favorite mystic champ of one of my oldest MCOC friends. He told us time and time again that the hood is an amazing champ. He used Ghost and Hood, but Hood was that perfect counter for cosmic champs that Ghost needed.
Now the man's been ripped off of his favorite mystic he's been using for years. I dont think its fair to get rid of his fateseal because of people like my buddy. They never asked for this rework and all they did was take damage for it. Usually reworks for bad champions help but this wasnt even a bad champion. If anything he only needed a tune up.
