Is Adam Warlock a good Defender?

I was wondering if any experience and knowledge players share their thought on Adam Warlock as a Defender, for BG and maybe AW (when it come back).

he can be quite annoying on defense.

He'll do good until he drops in the features, then everybody will have him figured out.

Depends on who you're using against him. He can be.

He catches people. I'd say he's a better Defender then attacker in this current meta.

I’d say he can be.

Most champions this year have some kind of annoying feature when fighting them and Adam Warlock is no exception.

For example, his l2 attack is unblockable if you block so you always have to dex it or have an unblockable counter. Another is that if he drops his sp2 or enter his pod, you can’t attack him otherwise it will stun.

At the moment I'd consider him decent, he's not common and most people don't have much experience against him. I'm sure as time goes on he'll become less difficult as people get more and more practice

I haven't faced him too much, but as far as I know his defensive value relies in hitting on the block to go unblockable & sometimes catching the opponent with his spacial attacks
And the opponent needs to take care of his pod at 25% health & after Sp2
I don't know if he has anything else in his kit

No he sucks imo. Specials are easy to dodge, no difficult mechanics and he’s not at all tanky.

Seems like good Longshot food to me
