What is a Special Drain? Re: Buffed Captain England

Average_Desi · May 31

Special Drain seems to be a way to counter her. But no champ in game has that?

Herbal_Taxman · May 31

Some new effect that hasn’t been introduced yet. DLL spoke about it on his stream for Cap B.

Based on his stream, I’d say it’s a lock that a new tech champ will be coming soon with special drain, cowardice on basics and possibly neuroshock immunity / resistance. That’s all conjecture, of course. All DLL said is that special drain is new and will appear in an upcoming champ.

Thank you.

I wonder what it will be. Drain exactly a bar of power? Or maybe drain an amount so miniscule that it makes you unable to use a special?

Herbal_Taxman · May 31

Good question. It sounds a lot like what Prowler does.

Can we get a better profile pic for her? Brittney has jaw like Quagmire which isn’t very feminine.

captain_rogers · May 31

Pretty sure it's just another power drain that can be used on power drain immune champs for a while until someone get's immunity for that lol.

It could be something like Prowler where their power is drained after a special

I remember being annoyed when they introduced characters with a special weakness that hardly anyone could take advantage of (I think it was Wong's susceptibility to Wither, which only one champ in the game had at the time)

Introducing a champion with a special weakness to something that doesn't exist at all in the game?

That's a new level.

I guess they really planned her release. She'll only be available what, 3-4 mo ths from now right? So by then they'll release.

But then again, Cowardice also counters her. Which enough champs have

america chaves has wither weakness before wither got added with s2099. it's not a new thing and just exists to give some connection between champions that are released and those that will be eventually.

Even Bastion doesn't work. He reduces ability accuracy of neuroshocks and her shocks are not affectsd by AAR

Her Nshock aar can be reduced by tech champs.

Yeah and Jack too

And honestly any champ who don't crit can nuke her before she gets annoying, like Prowler shocker etc.

Oh right. I forgot about that. When I first read it I thought of Bastion . You're right.

I’m just annoyed at how Shuri is caught in the crossfire of Anti-Nimrod design. Hopefully they throw her a bone and add her to the Peni synergy.

Some other counters:
Count Nefaria? He has crazy energy resist, so does Bishop, Photon, War Machine (with prefight), Abs Man (in magma form), CMM, Havok

Reduces, but at 3 neuros, she practically removes it

Which champions have cowardice? I was looking through tech champions and could only find Cap Sam, Jack o Lantern, and Nimrod. Nimrod specifically doesn't work, so that leaves only these two champions. Are there others?

Edit: Arnim Zola has it too. And randomly, Titania has it on SP3 but I dunno how practical that is.

Idoom has cowardice on his heavy.

Although why doesn't Nimrod work? Maybe the damage will be bearable. We might have to look and see

Actually nimrod can work. But whenever you inflict shock you get neuros on you. But if you play correctly and inflict 2 cowardice (40% each) The neuros won't even do damage for most part, or do negligible damage. You need to keep it up though.

I doom in the other hand, I think he'll suck.

Thanks. And yet another reason Omega Day champion's need to enter the basic pool - two Omega Day champions (Omega Sentinel, and Quicksilver for the synergy) with cowardice should be in basic pool before 7* Cap Britain is released.
