There is currently an issue where some Alliances are are unable to find a match in Alliance Wars, or are receiving Byes without getting the benefits of the Win. We will be adjusting the Season Points of the Alliances that are affected within the coming weeks, and will be working to compensate them for their missed Per War rewards as well.
Additionally, we are working to address an issue where new Members of an Alliance are unable to place Defenders for the next War after joining. We are working to address this, but it will require a future update.

A Pool of Venom in the Contest

I really like Deadpool. I really like Venom. When I heard a champion called Venompool was in the contest, I thought he would be a very good champion with the components of both champions. But it turns out his abilities are mediocre. I hope that poor Venompool could be buffed in the near future. Here’s my idea on how I would rework Venompool.
My Champion Rework: Venompool
Passive:
- The powers of the Venom symbiote combined with Deadpool’s healing factor lets Venompool passively heal (x) health per second. Beats awakening OG me, right?
- Venom and Deadpool struggle to take control of their shared body, creating two modes based on who’s currently in control. No one will sssstop me from killing Sssspider-man!!! Hey! Let me do the talking!
- Venompool starts in Deadpool mode.
Deadpool Mode:
- Increases regeneration rate by (x)%
- All hits have an 40% change to gain prowess, increasing special damage by 15%. Critical hits increase this chance by 100%. Max stacks: 20. Prowess buffs are lost when switching modes.
- If fighting X-Men or X-Force champions, Venompool gains +50% attack and +50% ability accuracy
Venom Mode:
- Increases critical rating by (x)%
- All hits have a 60% chance to inflict bleed on the opponent, dealing (x) damage over 8 seconds. Critical hits increase this chance by 100%.
- If fighting Spider-verse or Sinister 6 champions, Venompool gains true accuracy and +100% bleed damage
Heavy attacks:
- Landing this attack makes Venompool switch modes. Yessss! Control will be mine!!!! Don’t do it! Don’t you like Deadpool mode?
When switching modes:
- If Venompool switches to Deadpool mode and he has a fury buff, Venompool converts it into a taunt debuff on the opponent, reducing their damage by 25% and increasing their chance to activate a special attack by 80% for 15 seconds. Man, why is Venom so angry all the time?
- If Venompool switches to Venom mode and there is a taunt on the opponent, Venompool converts it into a fury buff on himself, increasing attack by (x) for 15 seconds. Enough with those foolissssh taunts!!!
Special 1: Symbiotic Rage
* We are back, Ssssspider-man! Prepare to face our wrath!!!!!
- Venompool switches to Venom mode.
- Each hit has an 80% chance to consume enemy buffs, converting them into 5% power and passive furies, each increasing attack by (x). These furies are lost when Venompool switches modes. Delicioussss! Give us more!!!!
Special 2: Deadpoo... I mean Venompool’s Break Dance
* While my pal Venom is having his rest, I’ll light up the dance floor with my new swords and my sweet moves!
- Venompool switches to Deadpool mode.
- Venompool’s blades are made of carbonadium, inflicting heal block on the opponent, preventing healing for 18 seconds.
- If Venompool finishes his dance, he heals 20% health and gains a precision buff, increasing critical rating by (x) for 8 seconds. Time to make some moves!
Special 3: The Combined Forces of Venom and Deadpool
* Venompool drags his opponent towards him, preparing to eat him when a phone call interrupts the special attack. They still shoot and pummel their opponent, though.
- 100% chance to inflict bleed, dealing (x) damage over 10 seconds
- Venom and Deadpool finally decided to settle their differences for once, combining the Venom and Deadpool modes into Venompool Mode for 25 seconds. Hi- Five, buddy! We are not buddiesssss!!!

I thought it was awesome, and honestly way BETTER than how his character is made/designed.
He's way less useful now. If you land him early on as a 4*, he's sustainable enough to be useful in Story Quests up to the end of Act 4, but not much past that.
His special 2 will be the same but before he dances, he will throw his swords at his opponent (one at a time)
His special 3 will be the same but he will shoot thrice and then maul the opponent for a while
By all means, suggest some animation changes, but be aware that as a rule, very few of the champions who've been reworked in the last year have had any of their animations changed; presumably because that requires more expensive coding time from the development team. So they're a lot less likely to happen:
These champs have been buffed/reworked with no change made in their animations:
- Luke Cage
- Red Hulk
- She-Hulk
- Gamora
- Venom
- Carnage
(These buffs a little older, but also no change to animations)
- Sentry
- Civil Warrior
- Winter Soldier
- Punisher
These champs have had buffs which included animation changes:
- Spider-Gwen
Howard the Duck also got an animation change; but this was just a comedy change to receiving an SP3 only. Possibly developed in someone's free time?
Nice ideas @SkyBlueGaming !
