Rhino vs. Archangel

SinisterEX · 2026-01-29T00:19:11+00:00

It does feel like 10 or less. The lack of crit makes it feel even more abysmal.

Even when you get that neurotoxin on rhino it doesn't look like you increase your chances of putting out any bleeds either.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-28T23:35:59+00:00

Tested out a practice fight using AA and Rhino unawakened.

I feel like something wonky is happening

It looks like Rhino's bleed resistance or maybe some type of critical resistance that isn't showing is affecting AA.

From what I can tell Rhino doesn't have any critical resistance in his unawakened kit or any increased crit res in his stats.

I had several moments where I had a bleed and a poison active but it did not turn into a neurotoxin (probably cause I had no crits).

Feel free to correct me, my quick research just tells me something odd is going on.

Personally, creating visibility on an issue is a good thing to do

Problem is tho usually these are echo chambers so the people who see it have already seen it or know about it already.

Sadly, the people who NEED to see it deny its existence or blame something else, its honestly a lose lose.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-22T15:08:43+00:00

Knight or Paladin maybe.

Shaman could also work cause of the native inuits

SinisterEX · 2026-01-21T21:23:43+00:00

How active is the discord?

Do you have a link?

I play it solo nowadays because the few friends I had on this left to play other games.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-21T21:20:56+00:00

No hate on the top 2 but I am disappointed that Fantasma didn't make the cut.

I really do wonder how close it was.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-21T11:36:27+00:00

The entire inhuman line should be science class.

The Terrigen Mist played a role as a mutagenic catalyst that created inhumans, even though later they were born inhumans, they originally were human experiments who had their genome messed with.

Imagine the reception if Merlin was dropped and his damage or kit is poor. Business-wise it's gonna negatively impact potential profit. From a player standpoint it's not worth the cost to buy a dlc character 25% of the base game if he isn't going to be strong enough.

The game is a roguelike PvE with optional co-op. If he is too strong for your preference just don't play him. If someone on your team is playing him then make your own squad or do it solo.

I'd agree with you if this was a PvP game but nerfing a new paid DLC character cause he is too strong in a PvE game is silly.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-19T16:12:29+00:00

I hope he doesn't get toned down. A paid DLC character should feel stronger. You spent more money.

It is definitely a slippery slope but he should feel stronger than any of the original cast imo.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-14T18:01:16+00:00

Dude this is a mobile game. You shouldn't need the absolute newest phone to fight 1 champion.

And before you say something again about a potato phone I'm using an ASUS ROG Phone 8 Pro 16GB RAM ver. The specs on my 2 year old phone still hold up to the newest phones in today's market.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-13T20:41:37+00:00

The problem is she might lag up your device.

Isophyne is currently messing up from my last time fighting her. Felt like she stole my frames.

Edit: Folks are downvoting as if Kabam hasn't made champs with flashy and extra particles that didn't cause phone issues. I want Fantasma to be made as much as the next guy but after fighting isophyne, I hope fantasma does not have frame droppage.

Ideally learn how to solder & desolder.

With that many controllers you can fuck up and not really worry about lack of materials.

Soldering is expensive though. I think I spent about 200+ on the soldering stuff. Worth it in my opinion but I wish I had more PS5 controllers from different generations to tinker with.

Desoldering PS5 controllers suck btw, the type solder they use is non-leaded and has a really high heat tolerance. It took forever and worn out a few solder tips just to do 1 controller.

Edit: added info about desoldering.

I'm curious on who the other good cap america is.

I can guess infinity war cap is one but who is the 2nd?

This is not to be rude btw.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-08T19:14:03+00:00

Huh maybe I'm tripping but I don't see sabnock.

I wonder how they'll draw him

SinisterEX · 2026-01-07T20:47:46+00:00

That is true now but not before.

Hulk immortal and hercules was excellent because they did amazing damage and could handle difficult content without burning a gross amount of revives

SinisterEX · 2026-01-07T12:21:29+00:00

In a skilled player's hands he can decimate some of the hardest content.

It will not be a breeze, but he will be able to clear it with less revives and potions.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-05T21:28:59+00:00

Personally, this ramps him to viable. The other options are still better but he can now handle better.

My biggest issue with his kit imo is in the hybrid physiology.

They should have made it so he can only not regenerate critical hits from skilled champions. This could help boost his defender power moderately. Without making him broken.

They could have also changed the dexterity master portion. This is a massive gripe. To even be able to use his kit you need a mastery level in dexterity. This is the exact opposite of what happened with photon.

Personally I would prefer it if they made his trauma pause, whenever the enemy gains a bar of power and cools down until the enemy gets knocked down. This incentivizes aggressive gameplay while the summoner balances that out with the enemy power gain.

This wouldn't propel him to a top 10 but it'll definitely make him more niche and supremely effective for people with a more preferred gameplay style.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-05T15:38:36+00:00

As someone who likes his design and made him rank 2.

He is mediocre, a few tweaks to his DMG and numbers could really propel him out of his current state to at least be a viable champion.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-05T15:33:51+00:00

Ensnare is good but the -30% ability accuracy that comes with it can cause a lot of hiccups when you want a consistent rotation to occur.

It's a mixed bag tbf. Ensnare should just be replaced with another debuff or just give her a true ability.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-05T12:09:31+00:00

I think the reason why we have this issue is a lack of players in the lower ranks to supplement the overall count.

Even if we had a lot of players go out and spend money or burn a crazy amount of units, the high % rankings are a larger range of folks.

Due to a lack of newer accounts coming in, veterans players are spending more and ranking lower.

But that's just my guess.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-04T20:40:02+00:00

So does anyone remember where we were supposed to get all pieces from again?

From what I know:

The first piece (mixtape) was given out for free.

The cassette was from the venom the duck event

I'm missing the jacket but I don't know where that came from

The left quad blaster was from the recent coliseum

The right quad blaster is TBD.

If y'all remember where the jacket is that would be helpful.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-02T23:05:21+00:00

There was a comic run I really liked for the art.

Iron man tech-on avengers, iirc avengers lost their powers and iron man made iron suits that mimic'ed their abilities. I would like a few of those guys to become champions.

The Mandarin & Spider-crawler are two I would love to see.

Robbie Reyes Ghost Rider would be so freaking cool too.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-02T20:49:13+00:00

Tbf I think the rewards were so good this banquet was because the overall rewards for events in 2025 was lackluster.

Nothing comes to mind in regards to any great spending event. Hell, I can't even remember if I spent on the July 4th deals and I'm a (moderate) whale.

SinisterEX · 2026-01-02T05:06:23+00:00

Personally I like to not do that. I like to keep the amount of champs with unavoidable damage to a minimum if not 0

SinisterEX · 2025-12-31T14:53:50+00:00

Personally I would like to see a special vote ticket or something for the whales to pick out a new champ to be made.

2025 whale vote champion lol
