Thoughts on Dracula?

EdisonLaw

From what I’ve seen, most of the CCP seem to be calling him mid, but is that actually true? Others say he’s pretty good

Lagacy and MSD seem to be hyping him up though

one man’s trash is another’s treasure. Going off ccp doesn’t mean **** to me. It’s all on how you play and what you need

I'm on the same team as Trap and Nick

Wish he had more Degen damage and more counters to the cosmic class,imagine if during specials the dire degen would steal healing and power from passives and buffs and could steal other buffs, like Crit modifiers and prowess

Mystic dispersion also din't need to be nerfed i think

Besides Nullify he doesn’t seem to have any other forms of buff control, similar to Isophyne

Here are some words. I typed them into the thread.

Even worst is that his Nullify is only the special attacks using the sword attacks

but his S1 uses 6(or 5) sword attacks while his S2 is only 2 and thats his main source of damage

Bro just steal the opponent power and regen and Nullify more attacks

Also dire could make the opponent more agressive

Question Edison, would it kill you to let me just have THIS ONE THING my God. You already made a deep dive thread on the character wasn't that enough?

I just posted mine, didn't see yours but Jesus Christ does every thread have to be made by you??? 🤦🏾

WednesdayLength

Maybe if lags even attempted slow combos id listen to what he has to say

Ragnaruk5178

count midula is so bad and I’m all for utility. He has utility that’s just not important either. Knull with no damage or utility, he’s like the creation of knull at the drawing board

We all know edison can't go a single champ without making a couple thread to keep that thread count up.

They were hyping patriots buff lol. They'll hype anything champ related as long as it isn't a spiderwoman level issue that the community would get too angry at them for ignoring.

I never listen to what they have to say about a new champion or a buff when they release.

MSD hyping someone up? How strange... 😅

MSD seems genuienely excited but Lagacy is recognizing the same issues. His survivability is not high enough, he’s not good enough against the top tier defenders, and his fury steal mechanic is janky. But MSD showed that if you play him with REALLY HIGH skill level (go figure) his damage isn’t that bad.

Ever since I stopped watching MSD's channel a few months ago, my champ ranks up have gotten a lot better (or at least, I've stopped investing in mediocre champs). Dude is an infomercial for Kabam.

On the bright side, it makes the conundrum everyone has of saving for the next titan a mindless decision

Definitely needs a buff. In his current state, you’d forget about him in 6 months and that’s terrible considering it’s f’n Dracula! The interruptions should be on any attack, not just light to make gameplay more reliable (and actually fun)… the degen damage should also scale up with the armor breaks. He should get FULL MD, not halved. His sp2 should automatically steal all furies (up to 3), then additionally nullify other buffs on the sword hits. Gonna keep playing around with him then do a full post.

Capricious

Everyone here should go run Dracula (assuming you can pull him in a valiant or if you spend on pre release like me!) in Side quest, realm, AQ and/or AW. He feels off, Biohazard is destroying him, he doesn’t do well in realm due to weak damage, his regen feels negligible, he can’t handle power shield nodes because his damage is based on the actual DOT and not the literal special attack, his synergies are actually a lot less impactful than I assumed (to be fair this is a rank 4 sig 200 6 star) but I mean

I miss his old content, not this pro Kabam propaganda

Suros_moon

Damage 4/5 allegedly so he will be receiving completely game altering buffs correct? That was the rationale behind nerfing SW right? Or does it just work in the nerf direction?

Pretty good video here as well, no Serpent because he's not really designed for Serpent.

JESUSCHRIST

He sucks

Pun intended

Absolutely melted him with HT in EQ.

I was surprised how easily he went down for the final boss

I don't think this is fair. I think MSD loves this game and is a genuinely pospositive person. I've never seen him anything but upbeat in all his videos. He tries to find the positive in all aspects of the game. He just sees the game from a different perspective than most of the player base.
