What character do you think needs nerfs, or buffs so far?
In my opinion think Spiderman needs the biggest nerf, having a character that can move around so freely and have both melee and long attacks with webs makes him seem like he shouldnt even be in the game at all. His movement are so unlike other characters even venom isnt as versatile.

In terms of buffs i think Rocket needs a buff big time. His healing ability is nowhere near as good as others, and his normal attack isnt very great either. His Ult is only good if people stay inside of it too.

Alright, folks, let me break this down. Here's how to fix this mess of a game:

First off, we gotta slap some cooldowns on that mobility creep nonsense:

5 seconds for lightweights like Spider-Man.
6 seconds for the mids, Scarlet Witch types.
7 seconds for heavy hitters like Venom.

And for the non-diving heroes? 10-second cooldowns. Simple. No more Black Panther spam from clowns like XQC, and Spider-Man ain’t diving in for free. Make ‘em earn it, baby.

Next, kill all stuns in the game. Zero. Nada. This ain’t LoL, Heroes of the Storm, or some MOBA. It’s a shooter with heroes, and stuns? Toxic garbage. Get it out of here.

Lastly, role queue. 1 Tank, 2 Healers, 3 Flex. Cap it at 3 heroes per role. That way, no more of these miserable matches where you’re stuck with five DPS mains ruining your day.

Boom. Fix it, and we’ve got ourselves a game. Don’t? Well, good luck surviving the rage.

He flat out stomps Moon Knight, there is nothing I have that can stop him.
You just throw your Ankh at the ground at your feet and attack it. Your Ankh pulls him towards the middle and if he tries to use his counter, right click, it gives you time to grapple away if you don't feel like you can beat him or you can wait it out if you think you can beat him.

Hawkeye (hit box nerf and slight headshot nerf)
Scarlet witch (lock on nerf)
Moon Knight (damage lowered)
Mantis (slight heal nerf)
Luna Snow (Heal mobility nerf on ult)
Jeff (ult needs to be looked at) Stop him from suicide the enemy team
Dr Strange (portal suicide enemy team nerf)
Star lord (Lock on Nerf)
Psylocke (damage nerf)
Namor (less health on Squid things)
Punisher (damage nerf)
Winter Soldier (ult Nerf after 3 Agains...)

Buffs
Wolverine (needs an overhaul and damage buffs, maybe Regen)
Storm (hit box bigger on wind blades and chain lightning with dot on secondary)
Rocket (health Buff, BRB better more people ressed?, Ult heals faster, minigun full damage at 20m)
Captain America (needs more ranged attacks and arcing shield bounces)
Groots (Walls need more health and buffs)
Venom (Needs better mobility)
Peni (Needs Bombs buffs and more health on the main bomb)
Black widow (stingers attack (stun), no reloading like Hawkeye)
Magik (Slightly faster Attacking)
Magneto (needs an overhaul) faster attacks?
Squirrel Girl (ult overhaul, Better aiming on her acorns or bigger aoe.)
Thor (needs an unlimited primary ranged attack on Secondary)
Hulk (damage buff)

Not sure
Ironman Seems right, high damage, low health..
Spiderman Seems annoying, but doesn't kill much (his damage is on a season buff at the moment)
Cloak and Dagger Seems ok
Panther seems ok high difficulty to use matches his damage.
Adam Warlock.. May need a nerf but i don't see too many op Adams.
Hela not sure if we nerf Hela she will become very mid.
There are several things I'd like to say in regards to this.
1. Doctor Strange: There is no way to nerf dropping opponents off the map. Not only is it intentional game design by the devs, but it relies on the enemy team having the IQ of a goldfish to fall for it.

2. Wolverine: He is actually not that bad. People are just now starting to realize he is a tank remover with his leap, tank killer with his % HP damage, and is even seeing bans in higher competitive lobbies where people actually know how to play the game.

3. Rocket Raccoon: What you're wanting makes no sense. Sure, his heal could be a little stronger, but it's at the level it is because of his utilities. His BRB's team revival should not be buffed because of how powerful it already is. Also his ult does not heal at all, it's purely a damage buff of 40%. Either you don't know Rocket, or you're misunderstanding his kit.

4. Captain America: I'd like to see his "Vibranium Energy Saw" not only have a wider bounce acquisition, but I'd like it to also lose the 20% damage fall of per-bounce and the ability reset upon landing a final blow with it.

5. Groot and Venom: These 2 are perfectly fine as-is. Venom has one of the highest surviveability in the game, the user just needs to be smart when using him so he can get heals. Groot's walls are already extremely annoying to deal with, buffing their durability would make him even more obnoxious.

6. Peni Parker: As a Peni main, I will say she is perfectly fine as-is, no buffs or nerfs required. You have to play smart with her spider nest so that it doesn't get immediately destroyed, which is intended for her because a lot of her strength comes from being within her web zones.

7. Magneto: As a Magneto main, the only buff he really needs is the duration of his wall increased by 1 full second. That's it. His primary attack is fine as-is.

8. Thor: He does NOT need a permanent ranged attack. That would make Thor ridiculously strong and would make the rest of his kit trivial.

9. Hela: Yes, Hela needs a big nerf. She has crazy high attack speed, her projectile speed is hit-scan, and she can 2-tap 250 HP characters. She needs her attack speed lowered by 10% and her headshot damage reduced by 1/4th what it is now.

- Spiderman ult. Make him stationary, lower damage or... something
- Jeff ult. Needs to be tweaked. Just silly on some maps.
- Hela main attack. To powerful. Lower damage, make it projectile.
- Hawkeye - Instakills from spam is always bad.

I think Spiderman should be more "reworked" or "refined" more than nerfed. I would make him infinitely more easy to move him around but reduce his damage. Give him infinite web swinging and reduce his web-hooking range (the "get over here" move, can't remember the button now). Something like that. Maybe giving him an option to quickly move from randomly swinging to a locked point (for objective purposes), i dunno man, the possibilities are infinite...

Kinda agree on Rocket i mean, i would make him pure support but zero healer. Like increase dmg for allies A LOT but zero healing, something like that. I aint no expert but i think heroes should be all more gimmicky and actually related to their comic counterparts more...

What is sure is having Hawkeye THIS strong and Ironman and Storm THIS bad feels kinda off...
nerf spidermans damage? even if your properly chain every ability you cant kill anyone other than the squishiest 250hp heroes(of which you are part of that group so you cant just trade to win) also you can change from random auto swing to crosshairs in settings

I have to completely disagree with that. That's how you cause extreme power creep. If you just buff everything and nerf nothing then one day supports will be 1-shotting each other from across the map.

Hallo, Here's a lil insight of my Point of View in the perspective of a noob support player, who played since the release of the game.

Vanguards:

I think all vanguards are doing pretty well, perhaps need some little adjustment towards to Capt. (buff) and Strange (nerf shield)

Duelists:

1: Iron Fist (nerf): Once iron fist lock on the target, it's pretty hard to get out away, specially if you are playing a strategist, Wether you go vulne, dash out, IF can just easily follow up and kill you without able to do make any encounters, unless the team is with you. this dude can literally fly, and heroes that could fly can't be versatile as him.

2: Hela Ult (nerf) : Hela's ult a lil bit overpowered imo, like, she could just literally run away after you killed her in ult form, she should be able to die once she got killed in her ult form.

3: Spiderman's Web slinging (nerf): His web slinging is a lil bit too overpowered and very versatile, even Venom can't even swing like that. perhaps like a cool down on slinging? idk.

Strategist:

1: Luna Snow and Mantis (nerf): their damage are hella strong than the rest of the strategist, perhaps a small nerf on damage may suffice, just a good amount of damage, and to make healing a priority.

2: Adam Warlock (buff): His Heal is a wee bit weaker, plus it's hard to make him as a sustainable healer for his heals have cooldown, most likely relying on the other healer's heal and on his ult.

3: Rocket Raccoon (buff): he is too squishy, his dps barely damages, and the lowest chance of surviving, making the wall climbing, b.r.b. and c.y.a. only the useful stuff, but even with a wall climbing, Iron fist still just gonna fly out to kill you. haha.

Wolverine needs a complete overhaul imo. There's no reason to play him over Iron Fist, and he's also missing Wolverine's most important power/ability - his healing factor. There's a lot you can do to make him more viable, give him more health, give him lifesteal or an active ability that heals him, make his claws cause bleeding, give him more mobility whether it be faster move speed or more distance on his claw dash. Let him wall crawl with his claws or double jump. I don't know man just give him SOMETHING more because as it stands I rarely see anyone playing him online because of how hard it is for him to be effective.

wolverine is pretty weak but people sleep on his ability to counter gank on defense. i singlehandedly carry games by disabling their flankers. if you leap on an assassin when they jump your support they simply cant do anything and die.

i wish people would stop calling storm weak too she is amazing if you just stay with your team she has enormous aoe dmg great to pressure healers in games where your flankers cant seem to do anything. people play her like an assassin ironman* when she has no mobility and slow projectiles and wonder why they cant do anything with her xddd
I have to hard disagree about the Storm thing. Depending on her aura (Tornado/Thunder) it takes her 10/9 hits to kill a 250 HP character at 30+ meters, 5 hits regardless of aura at less than 15 meters, and even with empowered Thunder that only reduces the hits by 1 each.
Her projectile is slow and small making it easy to dodge, she cannot headshot which is terrible for her, and she is both extremely slow and frail making it easy to kill her if she flies (which is suppose to be her entire thing as an aerial character, to fly). She is by far the weakest DPS in the entire game, even worse than Black Widow, even with the primary attack's piercing because her damage is so low.

Lmao everyone here saying spiderman needs a nerf are gold or below 100%. Most difficult character in the game with barely any reward on mastering it. The best sm in the world still has to switch constantly because its so easy to get valued against him, compared to how insanely hard it is to get value using him.
Hauntwick Dec 19, 2024 @ 1:31am 
You're mad about spider-man playing like spider-man? and the fact he's the hardest character to be effective with, and is entirely skill based? this game operates on characters being true to character, we don't need another marvel avengers spider-man. he's fine.

nerf hulk.
realistcally most are fine except for a few outliners
this is my opinion.
hulk needs a slight damage buff considering how much he has to be in the fight and how easyily he can be melted
tone down the damage on iron fist a tiny bit and remove the auto lock left click thing
tone down damage on hela by a tiny bit also and by tiny bit i mean like 10 damage or 5 cuz dont want to gut the characters
cap needs a tiny damage buff also and they need to make caps shield can go up like doctor strange the delay on it messed me up so many times
storm could also use a tiiny damage buff otherwise most characters are fine
oh and i feel as tho they should just give wolverine extra 300 health and make him a vanguard his playstyle feels very vanguard brusier dive but thats just me
also all these people dont seem to realize jeff ult actually isnt that op sure its strong but it can be countered by alot such as hulk shield and such even more so if you have a peni just plant mines at the center of his eat and when animation is done he will die to the mines
