Initial Thoughts On Okoye?

NONYABIZZ · January 9

Well, she's finally here.
Let's here them initial thoughts.
Currently, I wouldn't mind getting her in the match titan. She seems solid.
I also like her Playstyle and animations as skills are arguably my favorite class to play as.
Her and gentle look pretty good, can't wait to get both.

Simple yet effective. Great if opponents can be shocked and/or bled. Has an easy access to an evade counter simply by dexing (she’s a viable bullseye counter). Not mucch utility otherwise.

She also seems pretty decent for long form content too

I don't understand this "she applies bleed and shock, common immunities, meh" Sentiment.

Just don't use her against bleed + shock immune champs. There aren't many who are immune to both, and most of "those" Kind of champs are muties anyways. Even if a champvtake damage from one of the debuff type she's solid she's definitely versatile.

Damage is good and works well against Bullseye, more straight forward than teenage mutant turtle in that case, no evades at all. I call her Popeye.

Anyone who bullies Bullseye is my friend

Well there's also Korg and Thing. Besides those two, there indeed aren't that many.

Guys we need to understand how easy to play she is after having so many new features in new champ we missing out old champs who very easy to use and has damage too like star lord or g99 maybe u can kill opponent without even using special attack and also i would like to see the balance between those new skill requirment champs vs easy to use champ in 2025

Korg is same class and it would make no sense to fight him with her, Thing actually suffers with Bleed champs, so your point is pretty senseless

Have any of you bros actually played with the champ?

Fit_Fun9329 · January 10

She’s ok oye

BigBlueOx · January 10

I’m really enjoying her. More than Thanos even

WednesdayLength · January 10

Pulled the 5 star from her featured valiant crystal and she hits hard. Her dot damage is some of thr best we've seen in a while considering how easy it is to get and sure she's lacking in utility but I think she's got more utility than someone like dpxf. She's definitely simple but damn effective

She’s got some hidden utility too like her dex can’t be shut off.

Im only talking in terms of fun factor. Her dps is lit.

This update is really messed up, to nobody's surprise. When fighting Okoye in the event quest, reduce the in-game volume and get hit by her normal combo. The sound of her combo still comes through...

Ortoun · January 11

I got her 5 star from a prerelease crystal in the sigil store and have to say, I hate her. Her attack cadence makes her practically unplayable. It's like playing quicksilver except each of the multihits takes the same amount of time as a normal hit.

That’s the effect of clashing with Vibranium weapons lol

But she doesn’t have an ability that allows her to not be struck while dodging back correct?

With QS and NS you can at least mostly use the same tap cadence as every other champ, with Okoye you try to do a normal 5 hit combo and by the time you have finished tapping she has only done MLL. It's unfortunate as she looks like she has some interesting things going on otherwise, but personally I won't be playing or investing in her.

It’s a small learning curve but it really isn’t that hard and you get used to it

Maybe wait until you actually can play them both before making statements like this

It's not that hard to learn

Maybe so, but I don't really see the point, like I said, she has some interesting things in her kit, but nothing that I feel makes it worthwhile to take the time to do so.

You could make that statement for the majority of his posts.

Killing anyone that isn't immune to both of her debuffs and shutting down evade by dexing once is definitely worthwhile

I'm not saying her kit doesn't have its uses, but I would rather play someone like prowler who does similar things, plus has power drain on top of it and who isn't actively obnoxious to use.
