Is Mephisto is a new Black Widow before 12.0 update?

Dear Kabam,
I'm playing this game for a long time, I saw great updates and bad updates, good and bad champions. I remember before update 12.0 black widow was a god tier champion due her Sig Ability, prevent accuracy ability of all champions by 100%. I also remember that update 12.0 brought balance to the game by reducing some god tier abilities.
Lately you release new champion Mephisto which looks pretty cool but, this passive ability is out of the balance. Let's go over it:
Can you please explain me where is the "balance" in this champion where only one who can face him in Alliance wars it's Iceman, others will just die or require a lot of items?

- At the begging of the fight he can disable regen and ice armor, which is fine, but Iceman should create the armor after Sp3. With Mephisto it's not happening
- He immune to Accuracy ability reduction, which make other champions very weak against him
- He immune to all debuffs except bleed

Name one garbage champ before 12 that you will put in your teams every time NOW. let me know if you think balance happened after r block proficiency nerf. Essentially time and time again players will get smarter than programmers and instead of "adapting", they lay the smack down and nerf.
New Champs are meant to be stronger which is whack if you follow comics at all, but this makes the whales dig into their pockets, gotta make more reasons to SPEND SPEND SPEND
Until the spenders stop spending, expect a tough gaming life, and once they stop spending, poof game gone. So just thank them occasionally unless you're begging for a reason to quit
Remembered when everyone was excited about the release of Carnage, only to find out he is a huge disappointment. Per new york comic con interview it was told that their original Carnage was OP, then they decided to tune it down a notch (perhaps a few notches), because it is easier to buff an under-powered champ later in the game, then nerfing an OP champs later in the game.
When they buff an under-powered fan-favourited champ, most likely ppl will be happy
When they nerf a popular OP champ, most likely ppl will be upset & angry (like what happened to SW, BW, Thor and DS during v12.0)
Anyway I could be wrong though, only Kabam is always right regardless of what they did, my opinions wouldn't matter at all ... (a little sarcasm, considering so many issues lately)
3. he is not immune to any debuff except bleed, power lock and power leak are still not immune
Also his abilities can be "bypassed" with a concussion, which is active ability reduction
Newbs talking about the whales. Lol new accounts pay the bills “whales” don’t need to spend. Whole ally is 400k or above. A few guys buy crystals....sometimes
I have video (will upload soon) proving that after lv3 when there is no timer, ice armor is not created. Mephisto also disable the cooldown timer.
Magik is different story, you can overcome limbo with ability reduction, power burn and many other options
The reason Carnage was nerfed and Meph wasn't is because Carnage would burn through all their content and Meph is earning them huge money in AW. Pretty despicable Kabam.
i'm happy with sinergy ...this night return of strange on aq
for me mefisto, strange dormammu is good for att on aq5 and some path aq6
Not sure you understand what a "whale" is. Whales are the big spenders. It has nothing to do with your team's base PI. My PI is 514,052, that doesn't make me a "whale."
But he's only immune to poison and incinerate; unlike Iceman who is immune to bleed, poison, incinerate, and (when his armour is up) stun and special 3s.
Specifically, Mephisto isn't immune to all ability reduction; and Concussion works very well against him (step up Quake, Karnak or Gambit). Also he can be weakened, stunned, power locked, power drained, armour broken and shocked.
Try some of those guys. I favour Quake, as she can do damage from a distance, and prevent both his regeneration and his aura from triggering. Without which, he's pretty much a pushover.
He immune to:
One of his sig abilities is (copied from description):
"Mephisto is immune to Passive Ability Accuracy Modifications"
LOL good for you stop spending
I don't need to stop spending, bcos I NEVER spend on MCoC and do not plan to start spending on MCoC anytime soon considering the state of the game (many broken aspects unfixed and remained not recognized by the developers)
I don't mind who's newbies and who's whales, it is NOT upto me to differentiate or discriminate any of them. This is a free world, it is their money they can decide where to spend, how to spend, and how much to spend.
There will always be newbies in any game, once upon a time I was a newbie, so were you, don't think anyone will suddenly appear in MCoC as a veteran overnight. There will also be whales spending thousands or even tens of thousands in a game, this is how a game survives or even thrives. A game that is loosing money, can not sustain long for F2P players to continue F2P bcos sooner or later the game will die off if no one is spending to keep the company running
Anyway, as long as no one is hacking, no one is doing unlawful things, no one is using illegal money (let police deal with that), as long as everything is legit, nothing is wrong with newbie, whalers or F2P.
Will end the diverged conversation about newbie or whaler. Let us all focus on the original topic by arni2 on "IS MEPHISTO IS A NEW BLACK WIDOW BEFORE 12.0 UPDATE?"
Have fun and have a great day
I agree, I'm a spender and my tops are r5 4*'s. Spending to catch up with end game content before mid tier falls way behind. As may have been the plan it seems...
My wanted to point out the his ability that can remove by 100% sig ability of other champions (not all) and he to immune to the reduction.
I believe it is passive since there is not "debuff" signal when it kicks in.
He's not unbeatable, he's just a good character.
I have no idea where all this Kabam trying to get money from Mystic defenders stuff comes from either. The majority of players.. actually everyone.. doesn't spend units on wars. If anything they use Glory, which you get for free.
So, like... what? Is there even a real problem here or just want to complain?
