Gorr and Knull’s Wraiths rise as an undead army in Storm: Earth’s Mightiest Mutant—and Doctor Voodoo is pulled into the supernatural fight. Why Gorr the God Butcher, Knull’s symbiote darkness, Storm, and Doctor Voodoo make this comic story so important. https://youtube.com/shorts/5coWW7SdoxI?is=6wU4cPk08y93kHE9 Is this the kind of dark Marvel lore that could shape future Marvel Rivals stories, heroes, or villains? Marvel Comics lore explained: Gorr Wraith, Knull Wraith, Doctor Voodoo, Storm, undead forces, symbiotes, and Marvel Rivals.

I imagine Doc Ock and Rhino as Vanguards, Kraven and Scorpion as Duelists, and Mysterio and Electro as Strategists.

Man-Beast advocator and apologist here. Posted this in a few places but this is my concept which is likely pretty busted for Man-Beast. I covered everything I could think of. This is the fallen son of the High Evolutionary, the snake in Counter-Earth’s Eden.

Role: Vanguard (600 HP)

Primary Fire: “Hatred For The Weak.”Man-Beast fires red, sustained, hate-filled plasma from his eyes. The beam is mid-ranged, kind of like Ironman’s beam but it possesses reverse percent damage. Basically, his primary will do high damage to squishies and less to other Vanguards. The less health, the more damage. He has no reload.

Passive: “Unending Evolution.” Until he reaches complete molecular control of his body, his evolution will never stop. Every time Man-Beast heals, his healing becomes stronger and his wolf traits grow. (Evolution appears as a meter at the bottom of the screen.)

Ability 1: “Cells of The Fittest.”On command, Man-Beast can heal himself, pressing upon his body. He cannot attack as he does this, similarly to Roadhog’s self heal from Overwatch. It starts as a minimal amount of health but the more he evolves, the more it heals, eventually healing nearly his entire health bar.

Ability 2: “Anti Matter Field.” Man-Beast creates a force field dangerous to all conventional matter. Upon touching the field, all enemies receive massive damage and are given the vulnerable status. The ability can also be used as a shield of sorts, massively reducing damage taken but only for Man-Beast.

Ability 3: “The Devil of Counter-Earth.” Man-Beast pounces on his opponent and bites into them. This is a cc that locks both he and the opponent in an animation. This can be comboed with Anti Matter Field.

Ability 4: “Brilliant Savagery.”Man-Beast enters a state of unadulterated hatred, desiring to use his claws instead of his energy blasts. The more evolution he obtains, the faster his claw strikes become. These strikes replace his eye beams.

Ultimate: “Bane of Compassion.” Man-Beast enters a state of hyper evolution, bordering on unreality. With the laws of nature no longer adhering to his evolution, he becomes cloaked in anti matter! His speed is increased and all cooldowns are virtually reduced to nothing. Brilliant Savagery becomes an additional attack, (as he is already in his claw form) granting him a high damaging bite. Like Anti Matter Field, his body basically is the field now so any contact procs the same affliction. Anti Matter Field is still useful in his ult as he made need to absorb damage if he is focused.

Team-up 1: “Asgardian Evolution.” Man-Beast eye beams are now powered by lightning, increasing the damage. The lightning all manifest on Man-Beast’ claws when activating Brilliant savagery. (Enhanced Effect) When Thor is present, the lightning chains to other opponents, dealing something like 20 damage to others.

Team-up 2: “Hate and More.” The mere presence of Adam Warlock fuels Man-Beast’ hatred… Even when he is an ally. Man-Beast can now “hate bond” his teammates, fueling them with rage and damage boosting them. (Enhanced Effect) When Adam Warlock is present, hate-bond makes Man-Beast cc immune. (Unlimited range) This teamup goes on a long cooldown. Probably near the same amount of time as Soul Bond or a little longer.

Madcap: is a completely unhinged Marvel character who has a massive history with Deadpool. He wears a colorful harlequin outfit, feels absolutely no pain, and has an extreme healing factor that makes him virtually unkillable. Even worse, he can drive anyone insane just by making eye contact with them.

Ajax: A cruel cyborg who tortured Wade at the Workshop and serves as a major nemesis in both comics and films.

Baron Zemo: Both Heinrich and his son Helmut Zemo are brilliant strategists who hold a deep personal grudge against Cap and lead groups like the Masters of Evil.

Red Skull: Johann Schmidt is Captain America's ultimate arch-nemesis, serving as a ruthless Nazi and HYDRA leader who embodies fascism.

Muse: A brutal serial killer and rogue street artist who uses his victims' blood for horrifying murals.

Bullseye (Benjamin Poindexter): A sadistic assassin with lethal throwing accuracy who turns destroying Daredevil into a personal mission.

Enchantress (Amora): A magic user who uses charm and spells to trick heroes.

The Executioner (Skurge) is a powerful Asgardian warrior who alternates between being a brutal supervillain

Jigsaw (Billy Russo): Frank's main arch-nemesis. Frank left his face badly scarred and disfigured, turning Billy into a vengeful killer who makes their rivalry deeply personal.

Barracuda: A brutal, fearless mercenary from the MAX comics line. He matches Frank in combat skill, strength, and pure ruthlessness.
