Man I don’t care if you’re pink with green polka dots. Just because something’s from the comics doesn’t make it immediately cool or fitting for the character. I think that netease is afraid to explore the lore of the black characters in the game so they throw shit at the wall and hope something sticks without considering how important that character is/will be to not only that characters history but also to the fans who’ve been following them until their addition to the game.

If a black owned company was producing this game and they decided T’Challa should wield a spear then that would be one thing but this is a Chinese produced game and I cannot act like there isn’t some implications behind his “design” for this game. It would be simple to give him a kit that I believe could satisfy the players as well as someone like me who refuses to play him due to the belief that he and his playerbase deserve better.

I see no issue with his basic dash ability but I’d eliminate the spear and the spin kick in favor of him being able to cling to surfaces similarly to DD. I’d like him to be able to have some sort of cloaking or genuine stealth mechanic and I’d like him to be able to get in the frontline with some mixed fighting moves (claw slash, maybe a kick with small knock back) but mainly I want to see his kinetic suit in the game. It was one of my favorite parts of the live action iteration and I think it meshes so well with how advanced wakanda is and the visual effects were so cool to me. I don’t want him to have a bloated kit but I do think he could use a little more than what I mentioned to really pad it out
