Deadpool DLC: He's bad. Really bad. Possibly the worst character.

[Godzilla.exe]

Deadpool is quite possibly the worse character in the game at the moment.
He has ONLY damage, but it's all in low hit chain attacks that don't have additional chains unless you're getting a kill-confirm, which only buff his damage slightly.

Compare his chain to Wolverine, Blade, or even Wanda. He's significantly worse.
What about if you max out his damage with "En Fuego" stacks? then you could have just ran any other character instead because they all offer better stacking buffs and debuffs.

The only character I think is possibly worse is Marvel, but she has taunt, counter, and block and binary is a lot better as a passive.

He really isn't, as it is very easy to get him to en fuego 3 or higher every match. Though for him to shine you really need a resist 3 heal hunter (frankly I prefer light hunter for end game for support capabilities)

Also his legendary is the 2nd highest single target legendary in the game when built properly.

He is better than wolverine, blade, and captain marvel.

He is probably near the top of the bottom 5 however...

Still if built right he can be useful up to about U1...

After that you really need power players for U3 like iron man, hunter, ghost rider, etc...

He's meh but alright on U3. Just mediocre outside of specific missions. If you're wrapping up within a round then he's effectively just another quick card or two. To really shine he needs faster En Fuego generation for when it would actually matter in more missions (eg environmental kills counting?). In something like the fight mission where you trigger more mobs every turn and have a set minimum number of rounds then he can actually be useful - although obviously it's high single target damage in a game where Hunter is dropping Annihilation and so on.

I would rate him above wolverine, blade, captain marvel, and MAYBE scarlet.
But no higher than that...

I can see that. Not sure how I'd personally rank them all, especially with some much better suited to how I play in some missions and not others. Deadpool's just similarly balanced to a few others though, yeah. Personally, I'd not take Deadpool at all outside of a few mission types because I have better options but have got use out of him knocking out missions to get hangouts.

I feel the real problem with Deadpool is he's so generic and boring, when he should be really weird and interesting.

[Throst]

Not the worse....my play style hulk much worse.
If there were no restrictions on missions i only use Nico and Magik.

*Worst
No "worse".

[Btad]

nah he isnt that bad. so maybe... get gud?

[Captain Worthy]

Only damage? He has taunts and draws cards too, and I haven't even seen all of his cards yet.

[Lienhart]

OP, let me ask you something:

Is this game offensive or defensive oriented/based/titled/preferred?

If you get this wrong, every opinion you have is objectively ♥♥♥♥♥♥ because your basic understanding is wrong.

dustin1280, for example, has a clue =)

My game wouldn't allow him to have more than 2, and it didn't always count every kill the character got, both through abilities and through Shove or environmentals.

If you en-fuego goes up, you lose any extra kills.
EX: The first en fuego takes 1 kill to get, if you kill two guys, enfuego goes up to 1 and the 2nd kill is lost.
The second enfuego takes 2 kills to up, so you can kill two guys and it will go up properly, but if you kill three in one card play, you will lose out on 1 kill.

Environment, pushing doesn't count towards enfuego.

Also any time he takes damage from a non-status effect he loses 1 enfuego...
It is why you want a +3 resist heal hunter on your team to account for that. But frankly I prefer the light side hunter for end game U3 anyway...

Thank you very much, that all makes sense. I really appreciate it.

That was intentional. Right over your head.
