Welcome, welcome back to this series where we analyse a specific champion and see if they are overrated, underrated or perfectly rated.
In honor of the Maker coming out this month, and the new Fantastic Four: First Steps movie coming out, this episode we have Dr Reed Richards, or better known as the stretchy Mr Fantastic. The go to for science based pre fights like petrify, suppression and debuff siphon. He has other good pieces of science utility such as taunt, shock damage, and even a stagger debuff.
So, in 2025 do we think he is underrated, overrated or perfectly rated? Will he be a good 7* Champion?

Edison, have you ever wondered if you're asking the wrong question?
You're asking people to 'rate' Mr Fantastic twice: (1) how do they think other people rate him, and (2) how do they personally rate him?
Then they compare the two to decide if he's overrated or underrated.
However, a few years on the forums is more than enough to learn that actually, we're pretty bad at judging other people's opinions.
So two people might both think Mr Fantastic is pretty good. Person A thinks other people hate Mr Fantastic. Person B thinks other people think he's pretty good.
So, Person A says he's Underrated.
Person B says he's Perfectly rated.
So what have we actually learned about Mr Fantastic?
I'd say: nothing. We didn't actually learn either person's opinion about Mr Fantastic, which is that both person A and B think the same thing: that he's pretty good.
So, why not just ask if Mr Fantastic is good?
Or add a scale like Poor-Mid-Useful-Strong-Amazing?
I'm really looking forward to picking him up 😉
and honestly... I can see the potential of a 7* now
we'll see!
