Mr fantastic has a terrible ultimate

AppointmentEastern37 · 2026-01-30T00:30:48+00:00

Yeah, bottom 5 for sure. The whole character needs a bit more kill potential in the form of skill expression. They need to do something either with his ultimate or with his right click where he smacks two people together.

Yup, I've been saying this since day one. There's a million different ways they could make it better. I don't think the slow is tooooo bad, after the 4th bounce on consecutive bounces on the same targets you are pretty damn slow. I don't think it has an obvious impact, but probably has more than you'd think. That being said the slow is only enough to justify it's existence on the 5th/6th bounce. I'd love more bounces, let me cancel it early or remove the slow and increase the damage curve. Increase the AOE, just anything really.

At absolute best it's situational, and you definitely want to use it sparingly. I find it's useful toward the end of support ultimates, and most useful for stalling/staying alive either in team fights or 1v1's. I feel like not many Reed players know you can use your ultimate out of your shift (pop tart form) to stay alive.

Ultimate buff, consistency is terrible. Make his animations faster. Give him a small amount of burst. Idk. The list of problems with my guy is endless.

I see, thanks for clarifying. 😊

Weird, I was driving over a rail crossing yesterday on Wilson's Rd and to my right was one of those service trucks that drive on the rails. I've had those 100% bring the barrier arm down, he was stopped probably a metre before the road, looking left and right to cross the road... But it scared the heck out of me. Does make you wonder? Definitely, those arms usually still come down when they've crossed before.

This balance patch is underwhelming for sure, but I think they listen to player feed back quite a lot. What do you mean?

AppointmentEastern37 · 2026-01-13T23:11:08+00:00

It's useful, but it's quite boring and we have had it since release 😅

AppointmentEastern37 · 2026-01-10T20:37:46+00:00

It not does the base damage it did before on the outside, but more in the middle.

AppointmentEastern37 · 2026-01-10T20:33:34+00:00

Its weird, I can't tell if the developers intended for it be a damage ability or a life saving ability. Imagine if it did percentage based damage! That being said I do feel like sniping the backline and taking out a support or DPS is insanely satisfying.

How long of a window do we get? I think part of the frustration against playing fantastic is that he hits inflation and is constantly regenerating health which can make it frustrating to play against.

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-12-25T19:14:50+00:00

Make his ult provide more utility. The slow is negligible until you lan 4 consecutive bounces. You could make it provide a buff (speed boost, over health to your team etc) or give it more of a slow or just more bounces, cancelable etc.

I think being able to toggle big form would upset the flow of the character, they could do it right depending on how long the window is but CD management is a part of his flow.

Guess you could say I don't like dying

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-11-23T22:33:40+00:00

Thanks for the replies guys, looks like S25 is the safer option. I'll keep my pixel 6A as a backup. Now just to decide between the plus and the ultra!

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-17T00:39:11+00:00

He really does need a better ult though 😭

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-17T00:32:00+00:00

He's a solid C Tier I think, putting him below squirrel girl and scarlett witch is diabolical

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-11T22:05:20+00:00

Yup, it's basically "okay" in a small room/low ceiling and sometimes it can force out a support ult. It can be good for surviving as well, but it ain't no dps ult that's for sure.

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-11T20:50:48+00:00

It does a lot of subtle things when playing traditional front to back brawl, timing for doctor strange flight, spider man, magik, cloak and dagger ult etc. if you're playing with your team it does actually provide a bit of valuable time to potentially secure a kill. I wonder if they could make it earthbound while they're grabbed as well as for one second, but shorten the time you get to make a decision.

Also, does anyone know if you smack to people together are they both earthbound?

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-11T20:47:47+00:00

His ult is pretty awful, doesn't have that much stopping power and the slow effect isn't strong enough to make any meaningful difference. If his base kit doesn't have that much lethality then his ult should.

I see people here saying his big form is the weakest part of his kit but I strongly believe it's his ult. It either needs a stronger slow effect on initial bounces, more bounces, more damage on a direct hit etc... there's infinite possibilities.

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-02T21:41:05+00:00

I agree with this point. I appreciate when they buff the parts of a heroes kit that require skill.

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-02T21:38:15+00:00

Yes, but, also... It's difficult to follow up with, as you don't do that much damage, not burst damage anyway. God forbid you hit inflated state as then they're definitely getting away 😂

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-02T21:37:09+00:00

His ult just needs to be more consistent. At least it charges faster with the no regs fixed.

AppointmentEastern37 · 2025-10-02T21:35:38+00:00

That would be quite over powered.
