    Don't quote me on this but from the clips we saw, both Phoenix look mid in terms of damage. I hope it's another Silk situation but they seemed very underwhelming.
    I'm more excited for Magik than I am for any of these tho, I will say that.

    In the rotation I saw Cap Sam’s health was basically melting from those regular and instant incinerates. She’s not a typical nuke, but her dmg looks consistent

    Definitely Yelena.

    They’ve smashed it out of the park in my opinion, they’ve made a not so interesting character into an extremely interesting character.

    Good job Kabam.

    We got Samantha Fisher in MCOC before GTA 6

    Giving cyclops thorns and bleed countering (specifically for bullseye) is such a grouch move I swear.
    Especially since he has no such abilities comic wise, just doing it outta nowhere.
    NTW was fine cos her design was aimed at the skill class.
    Dazzler was fine cos it was their interpretation of her comic abilities.
    Jean shutting of thorns as well (fine to some extent since it revolves around her forcefield).

    Here comes Mr squishy cyclops having thorns and bleed adrenaline mechanic cos it counters bullseye also having true focus OUTTA NOWHERE

    Obviously its a game and not everything has to align with the comics as mechanics ARE BUILT TO BE interacted with but when you release BACK TO BACK champs targetting the same thing with literally no reason for it, it does become annoying.

    Bullseye, how bad they've hurt you.

    So you don't want more counters to the harder defenders?

    Consistently mid for BGs and personally that's my main focus now because of Radiance. You have to throw three sp1s and then sp2 to trigger cosmic flame aura and only then do you start dealing actual good damage, that's pretty bad for BGs I have no interest in her personally.

    Oh well at least we have Phoenix being immune to incinerate before GTA 6 (wouldn’t of been hard to do after todays announcement tbh)

    Dark Phoenix
    Was going to spend the units on the event anyway… getting her awakened as a bonus is exciting.

    Yelena looks cool as well… but not in the cards immediately and I simply don’t get new champs I want from the Titan

    Which may mean she may be better for long form content, but we'll see. She is coming out next week, actually on the day of the update she'll be available for everyone.

    You haven't even read the lore yet. There could be explanations for all of that that makes sense.

    True Focus: Cyclops has trained for most of his life in hitting opponents when they don't want to be hit; frustratingly, the same injuries that keep control of his eye beams out of reach, make his tracking less effective against the Tech class.

    Thorns and Bleed: As Logan says, "Slim ain't got time to worry about some scrapes, that ain't part of the mission, and he for sure won't let a little pain stop him."

    There. Only took a minute.

    Of course, Kabam could just say "Plot Sauce. Quit being a 🤓 ☝️."

    Cyclops looks amazing, but honestly I just finally pulled bullseye the other day and now I think he’s not even a meta defender with the amount of counters 😂

    The game is definitely comic accurate, you're right 💀
