Is Magik getting fixed?
Her time to kill compared to every other melee/close ranged characters is abysmal. Her M1 is slow and low damage, her E is high cool down for being her primary damage and a high commitment compared to any other melee/close ranged character's ability. Magik's ult is super flimsy. With at least one of her abilities, her m1 out of portal, it is advised that you never use it to do damage because it's so slow and low damage unless you're ulting. Black Panther, Psylock, Spider-Man, and Wolverine are tackling/webbing people off the map, dashing through the entire team, and multi-killing with in moments of a single use of their ult, Magik needs to use two CDs just to close the distance and she's lucky if she doesn't get shot out of the air if your E hits.

OK her time to kill might be slightly higher than others, but she gains sheilds on hit so every time I fight her solo I end up dead and she has full HP..

Yeah, if you have your E. If you use it for anything other than damage, you're SOL for 8 seconds and even then you need to get a good charge on her right click to confirm the kill.

Skill issue, watch some youtube videos, melee characters aren't easy just like range characters require aim and or defensive cool downs to survive. For magik it's all about animation canceling. She's not spiderman tier even with proper use but she can burst non tanks down.

Actually, include her charge time on her right click in her TTK and she has the highest TTK in the game.

Just land an E and two autos on any squishy... I, 'E' followed by right click to do insane AOE, follow that with your E to CC. She's Strong AF

Techs like animation canceling are usually for when you've maxed the character out for normal game play and you need to abuse bugs to get the little bit more to push them farther, not the baseline needed to justify the character.

And how much are you charging your right click? Even a half charge and any other melee character would have landed the kill shot already at that range.

Well in this game it is, it's how to make spiderman work as an assassin.

It sounds like a classic skill issue. Going to be funny when you run into someone that plays her well.

I'll let you know when it happens. 37 hours in the game and they all fall like cardboard targets.

I think she's just lacking a little on her mobility. Maybe having a short movement speed boost after using her portals could be great, and a slightly longer distance travel on it too.

She's mostly fine... she has the potential to just pop squishies if you land her combo. My only issue with her is that her teleport can't go up... which i do think needs fixed.

I find her Ult to be the worst in the game. It actually makes you swing slower. She needs a life increase / move speed increase.

She cannot be played on all maps and u surelly will not get top dps on her also she needs to camp corners and flank to dive backline. Still fun to play but situational. She also very good at contesting point if u need quick switch and buying time. HP buff or some movement buff on discs and she be fine.
