Champs with Surprisingly long Heavy attack ranges

in General Discussion
I was thinking about some champs and how they really have some looooong heavy attacks and champs who don't.

The #1 champ in mind is Professor X. At times it feels like he's waving his had and slapping fools with his pinky finger. Tigra does have the longest range in game BUT her's makes sense given her animation but X, the disrespect of the slap is worse than Doom.

Doom's Slap probably hits harder and hurts but but that's the point, it LOOKS like if it you, you'd get knocked out. X just does a slight wave and pokes you in the eye with his thumb or something and it's silly how far it reaches.

(yes I know when you fight with/against X it's a mind battle and not his actual body, don't take the fun out of the party)

    I’ve come across fights where a normal heavy uppercut reaches waaaaaay longer than it normally does.

    That's a long way of saying Venom. Out of all the uppercut heavy attacks in game, his is the fastest and longest reaching I've found. Don't react fast enough or dex at the wrong time and you WILL get a bleed placed on you which means death.

    Venom's heavy attack has the speed of Gamora's SP2 (tho Gamora's SP2 is alittle faster)

    He doesn't just mean venom. I also noticed champs like daredevil or cyclops throw ridiculously far reaching heavies.
    Esp when they prepping to throw and u think "heh I'm a good distance away" then bam smacks u right in the face.
    So far I only noticed this in arenas

    Surprisingly? Just the normal backflip upper. WS likes to occasionally remind me when I farm pots.

    You're not wrong. Sym Spidey makes me think that. His heavy is the normal flip but I find it goes VERY far.

    That's fair but personally Venom seems to have the longest range from that set.

    While we're talking about reach how about that Rogue sp1 that seems to have a completely different distance she leaps across every time? (*especially when she's on an unblockable node)

    Old Man Logan. I always forget he has a two-hit heavy.

    Worse is that it's tantalizingly slow in execution... I'm gonna interrupt that.... Nope, thought about that for a second too long.

    Iron Meme and other champs with the same heavy animation as US flag boy always feel like they get pulled to me when they unleash their heavy. Shame I don't have that effect on girls.

    You'd think they would fall for the fishbowl but apparently they themselves are masters of illusion what with makeup and all.
