"Wolverine is already an S to A tier pick"
If a character is only viable when the entire team baby sits that character, he simply isnt viable.
Characters like Black Cat, Bucky, Elsa, Punisher, etc, are genuinely S tier because they:
- Work at all ranks
- Extremely independent
- Can be played in almost any team comp
- Can solo carry games
- Can destroy tanks and supports equally
- Have overloaded kits for max versatility
- Have very little bad matchups
Wolverine has absolutely zero of these qualities. Even characters that he is supposed to counter completely obliterate him in many scenarios.
So I ask again, if a character only works in 1% of teams, 1% of matches, against 1% of enemies, how the hell are they S tier?
I am entirely sick of people in the primary sub saying the same "Wolverine is already an S" instead of actually having any sense of genuine discussion about his very blatant shortcomings in terms of balance and overall powerfantasy. How do we have Felicia having a billion mechanics that aren't even hers in her kit, but Wolverine cant have out of combat regen, are we dead ass?
What will it take to be treated like the "sexy" cashcow women who run the game? Watch them drop X-23 with huge tits and ass, then give her out and in combat healing, wall climbing, scent detection through walls, and 3 legendaries.
The Upside
But through it all, theres something very "Logan" about all this. He's never once had it easy in his life, and moments that happened to be, were fleeting. Its partly due to his healing factor, but Wolverine has consistently been the Xman to endure the worst of the worst types of pain and trauma. People wont understand you, people will want to keep you down, people will hate you, and thats okay.
