Deadpool seems badly unbalanced

[scorreia]

I know none of the characters is balanced (not a good thing) but it seems with him they decided to just throw out all common sense and make a character with high damage, low AP costs (for how much damage they are doing), high hit points and healing/protection. They seem to have no concept of balancing damage with AP cost to make a good GAME.

Once people get him leveled up he will just become an automatic skip. Game is hard enogh to get started on without creating killer characters new players won't be able to stand up to.

I´m still interested how much damage his Wale! Wale! Wale! attack does when it´s full... o_O Without and five covers 3.5k damage to all!! ... geez
Someone know?

Deadpool's red skill is taking out a percent (but does have a cap), I kept using Wolvie against him and had DP use it against him, so I can just heal back the damage. Other than that, he's managable (just have to be careful with his Whales), and you may need to take him out early, as he would then heal off with his black one.

i know from the fact that my deadpool is maxed that his whales does 4k damage to all enemies at max level, his red does max damage of 3300, using boosts you can fire that off without matching at all(+3 to all, +3 yellow/red) which is defnitely OP

His Whale attack at full level does close to 4500 damage. My teammate has him and that's only with him being at level 150 so far with 5 covers. So, at full his whale attack will do about 5k damage to the whole team.

Ok, damn! 5k damage, that is really bad! So, get rid of him first of all as fast as it´s possible! Thanks for info... There will be heavy combos with OBW and Wolverines or Dakens I think... Or simply: skip. ;)

Personally, I think DP is fairly balanced. His max health is like 6800 if I remember correctly, and that's consistent with other big hittersl ike Patch and LDaken. while his red power is impressive, the fact that it's capped means the player can't ride this ability to instant kill the enemy team, unlike sentry's supernova and world rupture. DP's purple requires 14 colors, and it's unlikely the player can trigger whale more than 1x per match.

When you consider the balance of a character, it has to be within the context of other available characters. When I compare DP to other 3 stars, I just don't see a super powerful character.

My guess is that people will think that DP will spam HP cut them eaach member so 1 whale will take them out. But if based on how the AI thinks, if there's a stronger red skill, it will use that unless it can't reach it if you keep denying it reds. Though if you can keep him from powering up... he's easy to beat.

MPQ always has an unbalanced character to encourage players to spend $$££$$ to upgrade.

Once everyone catches up, they simply nerf said character and create a new one.

Its criminal.

His red power is interesting in that it becomes extremely weak late in the round. His pink requires 14 AP! You pretty much have to clear out the entire board once or twice to get that. When he's boosted he's overpowered, but when he's not boosted he's actually only a moderate problem. It's not worth the competition to get covers for him now, so I'm passing on him entirely.

the number on his uber whales whales whales is somewhere around 29k at max level, so it's literally just an iWin button

and if deadpool wasnt here we could cry about sentry and thor...stop stealing their thunder deadpool

[scorreia]

DPs red pool is capped higher than other big hitters and requires half the APs. Face it 6 APs is nothing. Wolverines Ad Slash takes 12.

He is a healer like Wolverine but has hit points like the heaviest non-healers. Still don't understand how with black power he "steps in front of attacks on himself either". Makes sense to block damage to other characters but not for himself makes it crazy hard to do 6K damage and if there is another healer on the team forget it.

Like any game, it is fun to play the overpowered character/god mode, for a while, but then the game goes downhill fast.

[jp189512]

his whales does 4k damage at max level 166, Uber whales does about 15k, and his Red's damage is maxed at 3300 and it only does that till somoene's below 5k health, considering the AP cost of whales i'd say he's pretty balanced, if his healing was like Patches then he'd be OP

[scorreia]

How is 15k damage for 14 AP balanced? Who else does that much damage for that little AP?

[jp189512]

his uber whales only works once a week basically cause you have to play with him in your roster at least once a day to actually use it.
