Took a break off blade before season 9, he genuinely feels like he explodes the second he tries to do literally any brawling. Every evaluation people say is he works in so and so comp, aka he works in the least viable comps of all time. I cant tell if I just purely lost my touch or is everyone else just buffed that much. Gambit has a great get off me tool keeping me from getting stacks, dr strange can now fight us decently when before he was free, Magneto is magneto and Thing is Thing. Might just have to stick to Wolverine

Like I fully understand that he fully counters dive which honestly is a worse thing but ill get into that later. With both teamups he either does incredible damage, or is super hard to kill, great against shields, wolverine,blade,rogue,thor dive in its entirety. His ultimate is great. Im aware there was a substantial time that he was seen as terrible but my god hes such a cop-out character right now, and unless you main a poke character its an absolutely terrible experience to fight against. Even when you get him low he still has his run which only has a 10 second cooldown, the amount of effort you have to put into the things gameplay compared to every single other brawl tank is absurd.

You can do tekken-style combos with Rogue but the thing is going to turn on his flame teamup and hold right click and you cant do shit. Then PROBABLY the worst part of all this is the fact that YOU CANNOT ban him. Why? cause he opens the absolute floodgates that is enabling every dive character to do basically whatever the fuck they want. Oh you wanna ban thing? spiderman,black panther VENOM can basically do whatever they want to your backline so be prepared to spend your entire game peeling because this one tank isnt shutting them all down completely.

Im fully aware poke is his counter but I absolutely despise playing every poke character so this rant is kind of meaningless when I refuse to conform, but holy shit why can this guy just be the absolute god of brawl, atleast Devil dinosaur can get easily shut down by blade or wolverine.

When i saw some other old teamups come back I really hoped that this one would return but instead we got the mediocre Gambit one that only heals you when its enhanced

Out of ALL the tanks to go against this one is just incredibly miserable to fight. Thor can also be bad if they are good but you can out maneuver them. Thing though, grounded status makes you unable to apply anti heal on them AT ALL, due to their high burst damage and new johnny teamup you ultimately lose in a 1 on 1 duel, you cant apply anti heal on them while their running. Thing is just so obnoxious for any brawl character especially considering hes basically just holding right click at you over and over.

Genuinely bringing a tank with no mobility halfway across the country at 100% rage and they basically get out of it unscathed. Shit like this is why wolverine is only rated high due to pro-play and coordination, solo its an entirely different game

Like im not gonna sit here and act like its TERRIBLE, but compare it to some characters who basically jumped entire tiers from one teamup, and on top of that the MK base teamup is alot better.

Been learning the character recently, admittedly not looking at any combo guides or videos out of a "learn it yourself" type of learning. However it feels like no matter what whenever I land a single hit on a support the entire team looks at me, and I instantly die, do I just back out of there or continue on? What types of people should I be diving? should I be brawling when im not diving? Several questions any help is appreciated

Been a consistent Blade main basically since his release, picked up wolv shortly after. Currently however, it feels like attacking a tank as blade is alot more free as Blade then it is as Wolv, does anyone else agree?
