Anyone else just hate Ghost Rider?

[Ironside]

Title. I know we all have a preferred combos, characters, etc but I cannot stand Ghost Rider. The character from a conversation point is ok, but his combat ability are just annoying and stupid. Seriously can't stand to put him in my party. Is it just me? (I may regret asking that, lol )

[Overlord Byron]

He's not one of my favorites, but I grew to like his kit.

[snuggleform]

I think the key mechanic you don't want to miss with him is using Hellmouth to self-strengthen, and then use a high damaging heroic right after. So 2 x hellmouth and 2 x hell ride is automatic IMO. The rest of his kit is somewhat weird/underwhelming, and he lacks a draw engine. 1 x penance, 1 x judgment, 1 x lash are the best of the bunch after that, and that leaves 1 flex card which could be straight to hell for defense or immolate for offense, or a second lash if you want more quick cards.

Ghost Rider is one of the most powerful kits in the game. I'm just not a big fan of the Robbie Reyes character.

[Finarfin]

This punk is just a poser compared to Johnny Blaze.

[Tanktyr]

just throw out the drain souls and put some straight to hells, penance, judgement, upgraded hellmouth, couple lashes and hell ride and your good to go

[NoWayi]

yea he usually isnt my dps to go for first and havent fully explored his abilities, but couldnt help to notice that he comes with an ability to dissappears/"conceal" and heal without any mods and yes conceal is basically free stun on everyone who targets you...

Honestly you just need more of his cards. I didnt really get him at first either, a lot of his cards self damage but he also gets a ton of lifesteal and uses his souls mechanic to get pretty beefy in a fight. Hes honestly a powerhouse

Kind of like this. I did not like his deck at start once I could replace some with new abilities I am enjoying him a bit more.

Ghost Rider is great. But I'll admit I felt similar to you when I started playing. Once I figured out his mechanic and how to really take advantage of it he became one of my favorites.

Ghost Rider is great once you upgrade his deck a little (not even replace cards just upgrade). Hell Ride+ is 3.5 x offense and, like others have mentioned, Hellmouth+ gives him Strengthened and gets you 2/3 Heroism needed to use it.

So you end up with 5.25 x offense in a large line area of effect. That's more damage than a Hero Combo (with rare exception) to multiple opponents. It has the added benefit/drawback of emptying your hand. Played as a last card in the turn it means you dump any cards you don't want to use next turn (but also lose any that you might have wanted to save).

Lash+ is one of two natural Forceful Knockback Quick attacks in the game and his is omnidirectional. It costs you some HP but it's great versatility and his extreme damage means you can typically just kill anything that threatens to hit him: even on higher difficulties.

his hellride move can be an absoule gamechanger. alot of his moves are stupid though, you have to work on him to get him the good cards

[Danceofmasks]

Thing is, I like to mod my cards to have extra card draw.
The issue with that is, once your hand has a lot of cards in it, you don't draw new cards on your next turn.
That's where hell ride comes in. For my kind of build, the discard mechanic is incredible.

[Fear2288]

Maybe he’s good, but his characterization has made him my most disliked hero who I almost never use unless I have to

[Pacino]

I felt like they messed up a few of the characters. I'm not sure how you take a demon slaying demi-god with a flaming skull that wears a leather jacket and drags enemies into the fiery underbelly of hell and turn him into a needy, insecure little simp... But against all odds they managed it! It's a shame too because his actual design is really good.

Dr Strange is an insufferable, condescending bellend. Every time he talks I want to slap the smug out of him. Same goes for Captain America who just comes across as a pompous tool bag. The biggest crime is what they did to Blade though. Seriously... What the f*** is Blade doing running a book club? Why is he having me be a middle man because he's crushing on Captain Marvel and doesn't have the balls to just go and talk to her? Why is he whinging to me about Captain America turning up to the book club and then bottling it when I offer to tell him to f*** off? Why is Blade standing outside my room first thing in the morning to ask me out on a man date? It's like playing a Marvel expansion for The Sims... They could call it "The Simps"

Jokes aside, I am enjoying the game a lot. But the dialogue and social interactions are a cringefest.

[epworth]

Not a fan of his either but for me its character wise he just seems like hes always whining about something. But in combat hes alot of fun and can pull of some insane damage but you really need to watch his health have a lifesteal ready after pulling off some lifedrain abilities.
