How to play trash champs

Ok so I was thinking and I thought:
All these people asking for champ buffs, why don’t we make a thread for them to learn how to play them effectively as is?
So here it is. The place for people to give innovative ways to play trash champs, eg. KK, abomination, etc.
Please no trolls, only genuine guides.
First example:
Daredevil Netflix is definitely worse than its classic counterpart, but if played correctly can actually have a tad higher damage. Parrying at the start of the fight starts it off, and with the stun length mastery maxed out, you can do a 7 hit combo: MM-MLLLM. This will stack 3 armor breaks with an 85% chance. Armor breaks take off roughly 600 armor per stack, and after 3-4 parry-7-combos, the opponents armor should’ve vanished.
At this point you should be close-ish to a special 2; you should wait until you are almost at a special 3 and let loose a special 2 (which should crit wild with all the armor breaks) and use a classic stun chain to launch a few more special 1s (while continually stacking those armor breaks. The damage at this point should be up to snuff, with the crits a bit above average (meaning not sw level)
Not blade, but a decent armor breaker/damage dealer

Carnage - Don't use him the way he is advertised by kabam. They say to keep using specials and he'll build buffs. While they're right, it takes ages. I almost always heavy to start the fight 2-3 times to build longer bleeds. By this time, you should be able to throw a full combo then a special, and if you're lucky, have 9-10 stacks of bleed on the enemy. When RNG is on your side, you can potentially have normal damage output.
You're right, and we're not saying these champs aren't in need of a buff, but saying how to optimize their trashy-ness. Maybe for someone who likes the character and wants to use them for EQ, or arena.

Yes, degen, regen, power gain, true strike, etc. What else could you ask for?
Can give you one for Logan, although I’ll start by saying he is not a “trash champ” by any means. He’s average if you’re being harsh. Just have to know how to use him. To add to the pic below, I often use him in uncollected EQs as well, Almost took out the first thanos with him solo until I inevitably got hit by a sp3. It’s very rare, but I also had about 18 stacks of bleed from one sp2 once. Highly unlikely to happen but that was pretty awesome to see, couldn’t even get a screenshot fast enough because the opponent just went down so fast. But you can frequently get between 6-12 if you know what you’re doing.
For Gambit, stun lock special one could work. Depends on what cyclops you are using, but I think classic can get unblockable beams when he is over 15 hits if he is awakened. This could potentially be good for nodes like bane, brute force, plagued mind, or others with a timer. If the opponent isn't cooperating, you can fire off your specials even if they are blocking and get hits to refresh the timer. Magneto is best against metal characters including morningstar. He gives her reduced ability accuracy and his attacks don't make physical contact, so he doesn't bleed from morningstar. He also doesn't have any buffs, so morningstar won't replicate and mystic dispersion won't trigger as much. For most champs, the best way to use magneto is to use the special two or three.
(Colossus is pretty bad though, this might be a challenge
exactly..she hits hard and has immunity..but always get labeled as trash..any champ can be good if you know how to use them
I don't usually play groot that way, although i'm sure you could. For me, the sp2 damage and regen are too weak. I'd much rather wait until his pacifisms popped naturally and not get hit. Once he gets all the buffs, I would use some sp1s or an sp3.
unfortunately, you can't sell 5* kk
Granted, Thor is still the king of armor breaks, but an IP special 1 spam gives less attack than Thor but more armor, for what it’s worth.
Bait some specials while pushing the opponent against the wall then use SP2, armor breaks are nice but if it stuns as well spam heavies until the opponent is almost at SP3 then nail them with a SP1.
You need to sell your all champions and keep upgrading trash, also you do lol with netflex or KK, I would be excited to see on YouTube, you need to write with sense
1.clubs suite and l2/l1
I also realized, that netflix DD might have some utility against IMIW — if I'm correct, his armor breaks should turn off autoblock. need to test
Alternatively, you could just get the prowess and then throw an sp2. If it crits, you can get some impressive damage
