Hercules isn't getting nerfed

    It is great Hercules is not getting nerfed. But my friends one day will come when no one care about nerfing Hercules because we will be having great champions in this incredible game.

    For now even I don't care if herc get nerfed or not. Because I mostly use him incursions and he always saves me so many revives. If herc get nerfed now then he just only be replaced with Aegon or Angela for incursion. But back in the days when I was new Hercules helped me a lot in act 6.2 to 6.4. Thanks to Hercules and kabam.

    But here is the situation of Hercules
    In AW he is always get banned.
    In Bg he is useful like others do.
    In AQ he is useful but other can also do better.
    In EOP he is useful for first 4 fights specially in left side. I used him in every objective.
    In Necropolis he is not much useful because in necropolis his immortality wouldn't work. Aegon, kate, shuri will do much better than him.
    EQ and SQ it doesn't matter even you don't have Hercules you will complete EQ and SQ easily.
    In Incursion he is the best champion to do the incursion.

    Sometime I Hulkling seems much better than herc. Obviously I always chose Hercules whenever he is not banned 😂 but in most of the AW Hercules is no 1 to be banned.

    So for me Hercules is only useful in incursion.

    It's amusing all these genius internet folks derived herc nerf from one simple comment.
    People do have difficulty connecting causes and effects.

    Stop looking at Reddit.

    Stop watching Prof Hoff.

    Stop paying attention to global chat.

    Let me preface by saying I have a R5 Ascended Hercules. Why? For AQ. Hercules is an extremely OP champion. The unfortunate consequence of the perfect design is that it slows the learning of nodes in the game that newer to moderately newer players need to understand how they work.

    Kabam will likely never touch his kit and abilities but will probably introduce nodes to counter immortality. But it's not like they're sitting at their work desks planning this right now.

    This all started because of misinformation from the Livestreams. People heard what they wanted to hear and are spreading fake information. Even with Miike's comment on the other thread that everyone can see, things persisted.

    Then Prof Hoff gets involved and instead of using his influence, he makes it all worse, makes a video before doing any research and basically adds to the panic his subscribers already had.

    You're safe to continue using your crutch in the game. At least try and branch out. This game has tons of amazing champions. But as long as the focus is on Hercules, Silver Centurion will continue to secretly still be the best champion in the game and more OP than Hercules. 😏

    YET you didn't post his original answer on this topic posted in this forum. 🤔

    No.

    There was a thread with his original post. It was closed. Another thread popped up. Then came this tweet, so instead of it getting buried a new thread was started so that people could see the clarification.

    To be perfectly honest, I'm over him anyway. The same happened with me using Quake. You get tired of the same old shortcuts after a while and you want to use other Champs.

    That's your choice like everyone has. I feel the same sometimes. Branch out. I have gotten better intercepting after learning Hercules style.

    Yes, because it was riddled with forum ToS violations and isn't constructive. I knew it would come down.

    Herc can solo with no revives.
    Ægon needs a lot of revives.
    I hope that made it a little easier to understand now 🙂
