Phoenix

Can anybody tell me or explain why Phoenix is so bad in the game? She’s supposed to be a level 5 mutant world ender but in the game she is not great. Yes I know she’s good with Professor X but she shouldn’t have to be paired with anybody.

    She needs a buf

    Maybe make her incinerate immune, and buff her second life, kinda like Nick Fury, with more damage and more incinerate damage or simply burst damage.

    I dont think these changes would be too hard to implement

    You'd think but that's not always a given..

    agreed. I would like her be reverse control/incinerate/power manipulate immune. Able to bypass miss and second life giving her crazy damage boost with some cool VFX on her second life(like become a white crown version in second life)

    I dont think these changes would be too hard to implement, she would be usefull but not op. Also, i would swap her outfit for the second life for the Dark Phoenix, the red suite one, that would be pretty cool imo


    Great idea she could go dark phoenix like lmd an burn her self out like her own version of nova flames or mephestos aura
    On that same wave length they also should make Base Phoenix regular Jean Grey and give her more appropriate telepathic/telekinetic abilities. Then when she dies she is reborn into thag Phoenix state where her strikes get the extra incinerate. Make regular Jean reverse control immune, give her some kind of mind control on her heavy attacks (she actually touches her head if you hold it long enough) and update her synergies appropriately

    Better yet, why is Black Bolt like the simplest and most basic champion? His voice literally shattered planets in the comics, and the only way to get him to do decent damage is with a full synergy team around him.

    Because he was one of the earliest Champions released. Go back to some of the earliest champions in the game and you could fill their entire kit on a Post-It.
