Petition to add Mantis synergy to OG Starlord's base kit

Please add this synergy to the champion's base kit. It's nothing absurd and could make him viable in some scenarios.
Currently, it's not possible to use him safely even against Onslaught/Havok, because if you apply shock, you'll take a lot of damage.

It would be a QoL change that would make many people happy, he's one of my favorite champions, and I would really like to be able to use him.

For those who don't know what the synergy is:

How synergy could benefit him against some mutant defenders:

Onslaught: Would give him the ability to not apply shock, making him a good option for the fight.
Havok: In addition to not applying shock, using power drain would control his charges.
Mr. Sinister: Would have access to Heal Block, making him a great option for this fight.
Captain Britain: Would be perfect. In addition to not activating shock, eliminating the risk of neuroshock, power drain removes the safeguard.
Bishop: Same situation as the others. He's no longer one of the main defenders in the game, but I thought it was fair to include him on the list.
Weapon-X: Would have access to Heal Block, making him a great option for this fight.
Dust: Doesn't have exactly great benefits, but she's immune to shock, so being able to use another element makes the fight more consistent.

At the end of the day, he's an out-of-place champion. All these abilities are already part of the champion and are characteristics of the tech class. It would simply give him control over what he already has.

Just a minute, someone may sign your petition

Maybe when he’s available for ascension they could buff him

I agree that it would be great for him. I once thought it would make him OP; but not these days.

Small point - petitions are explicitly against forum rules.

Apart from that, I'm in… 😉

yes, i agree, add it, i was thinking the same thing, would make him absolutely amazing, such a controlled fight ability

As a starlord myself, even if they make these changes, nobody is going to use him for these fights. He needs a better rework, his guns should apply other effects. Like passive critical disintegration or plasma

Mysterio

I think an additional change I would greatly welcome would be some way to get a combo shield. Personally think the best way to include this is with the special 1. It currently has an effect based on intercepting, imagine if intercepting the opponent with a special 1 gave Star Lord a combo shield that lasts 5 seconds when hit. Max stacks 2.

Why would that be against the rules? I didn't quite understand

Why?

I didn't make the rules, my friend. Just letting you know that they're there. They're a little hard to find now, but:
