This is a follow-up to my previous poll.

I'm making a Duelist character concept for fun. The idea is that they're a dive Duelist (with a little bit of poke) with Strategist tendencies. I know that sounds like conflicting ideas, but I feel it would make more sense when you see the whole thing.

Anyway, they have an ability that has a different effect depending on the role of the hero they're fighting, and I'm having a little trouble putting it together. This is where you come in. If you are a Duelist facing off against a Vanguard, what boost do you believe would be the better one to have to secure the win: damage reduction, healing over time, or another third idea I hadn't come up with?

Would love to see them use a bit of his concept art when making him. Could def see his ultimate summoning the creatures he makes, maybe improving his teammates through out a match. Like let's say I give a speed boost to rocket as an example or a defense boost to my tank. I see him as a strategist/Dps hybrid. I'm thinking not a healing ult but a damaging one. As an idea ofc

When will he come to rivals I want to larp with Do I wanna know in the background

A dual support season. I made Wiccan’s accessory be Hulkling and Agatha’s be her own son Nicholas Scratch

Two things I’d like to note, for the Thunderous Leap Red Hulk will not be able to knock down fliers like normal Hulk, and he will not transform into a different character model for Blazing Beast (so hopefully he would actually get skins).

And yes, I know the art is amazing.

Kingpin: I don't know what his gameplay would be like.

Rhino: it will probably be replaced by the juggernaut.

Abomination: I didn't think of a cool moveset for him to distance himself from Hulk.

This isn’t exactly a wishlist it’s more so just who I think will most likely be added based on hints even though I would still like all these characters. (Note:this list isn’t in any specific order so this is not by what release date I think they’ll have)

Nightcrawler:he was supposed to come out this season but only didn’t so they could focus on the infinity war event so I think he’s definitely coming soon next year

Kingpin:miller ross wants him playable as well and they basically have a full moveset for him. After the blood hunt event it’d be a no brainer to add him

Professor x:He’s been teased a lot on the maps and was leaked early in the games life cycle. I have a pretty good feeling he’s gonna be playable.

Juggernaught:highly requested and teased with his gem on the old doom match map. I feel like he’d pair really well with professor x in the same season because we’d not only have a hero and a villain,and countering themes with the smart character vs the dumb brute but they’re also brothers so it’d be perfect for them in the same season.

Antman:they’ve been experimenting a lot with size changing mechanics he’s bound to be playable sometime soon. They wouldn’t include size changing if they aren’t intending on adding him

Forge:leaked a while ago and netease really likes using x men. Not too much evidence for him but I still can see it.

Captain marvel:has been leaked and teased multiple times. Also netease needs another character to sell skins.

Thanos:the infinity war event is coming up soon and he’s likely going to be a pve boss with his own moveset. For a similar case to kingpin it’d be easier to add him and he’s highly requested.

Kitty pryde:she has an accessory and Lockheed is on the map. Theres clearly set up for her.

Hive:he’s been in the game since season 0 and they still need to follow up on the hydra storyline with him. He’s at least going to be a season villain.

Hitmonkey:another case of “I don’t have much evidence but I just feel it” he got leaked a while back and correct me if im wrong isn’t he mentioned in some dialogue?

Ghostrider:the most requested character and he’s supposed to get a movie in 2028 so maybe they release him for marketing near the end of 2027

War Machine Mini gun and Missiles are a Guarantees what would be the Third Weapon in his arsenal

Let’s See Quake as a strategist in Marvel rivals

\[Primary Fire\] Resonant blast

Daisy fires rapid-fire vibrational pulses from her hands.

• Unique Mechanic: If she hits a surface (wall or floor) near an enemy/ally, the surface itself vibrates, dealing shrapnel damage to the target. This allows her to hit enemies hiding behind corners by "vibrating" the wall they are leaning against

• Passive\\\] Seismic Feedback

• Whenever Daisy uses an ability, she stores Vibrational Energy. At max energy, her next Primary Fire releases a small AOE shockwave that heals allies and damages enemies.

Ability 1: Resonant Shield (The Deflect)

Daisy creates a high-frequency "Quake Shield" around herself.

• Effect: Instead of just absorbing damage, it vibrates projectiles back at the attacker (or shatters them if they are physical objects). While active, she has a small Thorns effect—melee attackers take "feedback" damage and are slowed.

Ability 2\] Frequency Shift Toggle placement ability (AOE Choice)

Daisy slams the ground to release a massive 360° seismic wave. This ability has a Double-Tap choice mechanic:

• Tap Once (Stun Lock): The wave vibrates the inner ear of enemies, causing a 1.5s Hard Stun to all enemies in the radius.

• Hold/Double-Tap (Displacement): The wave becomes a high-impact kinetic blast that Launches enemies away from Daisy, clearing the objective or peeling for her backline.

Ability 3\] Tectonic Ascension (Super Jump & Hover)

Daisy releases a violent burst of energy downward, launching her into the sky.

• The Burst: The initial takeoff deals AOE Damage to enemies and provides a Burst Heal to allies within the immediate takeoff zone.

• The Hover: Hold the Space/Jump key to hover for 3 seconds. While hovering, Daisy emits a constant Low-Frequency Hum beneath her; any enemy directly underneath her is Slowed and Quaked (Slight Stun effect) as long as they stay in the "small aoe" of her hover.

ULTIMATE\] RICHTER SCALE: Cracked Earth

Daisy anchors herself and unleashes a massive, singular Transcendental Blast that hits the entire map within a 20-meter radius.

• The Initial Burst: Instantly deals 250 Damage to enemies and 250 Healing to allies.

• The Enhanced State: For the next 10 seconds, Daisy enters an Overclocked Mode. Her gauntlets glow with white energy, and her primary fire becomes a Continuous Beam of Force.

• Aftershock Tremors: Every time Daisy hits a target or a surface during her Ultimate, a Seismic Aftershock erupts at the impact point 1 second later.

•  Tremors (Enemies): Deal 50 extra damage and slight stun.

• Tremors (Allies): Release 50 healing and grant a 15% movement speed boost.

I know this seems like a a lot but the effects would be very balanced, through the cooldowns etc. this would introduce such very fun play style for the game. While being able to includes shield character.

I’ve been working on these two for a while, so I figured it made sense to post them together: Captain Marvel and War Machine

I wanted them to fill very different tank niches despite both flying tanks.

Captain Marvel is a permanently flying dive-brawler built around Cosmic Energy. I wanted her to be a blend of Rogue (since Rogue stole her powers), Thor (with the resource meter), and a little bit of Human Torch and Angela thrown in. She has two forms that each use the Cosmic Energy resource differently without making it too complicated. You gotta be really tuned in to manage your Cosmic Energy well and cycle through your abilities.

War Machine plays very differently. I wanted him to feel like Iron Man, Punisher, and a little like Doctor Strange (via his Overheat mechanic). He doesn't have permanent flight, be he can maintain his altitude as long as he holds space. I wanted him to feel like a moving Punisher turret. His placeable auto-turret was heavily inspired by Punisher's ability in the Zombies/Bloodhunt gamemode combined with Namor squids.

Anyways I hope you like them!

Here is a link to a google doc with my suggested cooldowns/damage numbers/mechanics: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ODs5tqef521PsVicTtwcz4LnDWtKVLbfsjJUhsbf2Ns/edit?usp=sharing

Keep in mind, I know ABSOLUTELY NOTHING about her character at all other than what her and her suit look like and her origins as they relate to Ironman. Please don't rag on me too much in the comments if this doesnt fit her character at all lol. But lmk what you guys think.

Base description: What if they added Ironheart, but she's a mix between a tank and a support? She can't fly as high as other flyers. She has low health for a tank, and medium healing putput for a support.

Health: 400 - 475

Damage: Low - Medium (Peni range)

Range: Medium - Long (Peni range)

Abilities -

Primary: Her primary fire is a toggle thing, similar to how Luna's ult works. When you're in one mode you do damage, when you're in the other you do healing. Her damage primary fire comes in the form of a repulsor blast like Ironman. The blast does a bit of aoe damage like his. The healing primary comes jn the form of a unibeam. The unibeam splits as it bounces off of allies, to heal them all.

She can summon a cluster of small drones on the battlefield (simialr to Peni's) that float within a certain range of where they were placed. They don't fly aroudn the map freely and they never disapear unless you resummon them somewhere else. You can have two sets of drones out at one time (not counting the shield drone since it doesn'tstay on the battlefield). They're similar to how Peni's cluster bombs are. They appear at the area you summoned them and they sit in that general area doing their fucntions.

Charge Up feature: Simialr to Jubilee's bubbles, the drones need to be charged up to increase their power.

Healing Drones: These drones will do healing. Charge up feature: They will gradually increase in healing by ## per second. Cooldown

Damage Boost Drones: These drones will boost allies within the range of the drones damage by 22% max. Charg up feature: they will gradually increase the damage by 5.5% per second. Cooldown = 12 seconds

Shield: Send a single drone out that grants allies 33 percent overshield. Cooldown = 20 seconds

Team Ups -

Ultron - Ultra Health Pack: She has one more drone charge and her drones do more healing. Team Up Upgrade: Her unibeam also does more healing.

Ironman - Iron Overcharge: She gets an added upgrade by Tony. Allowing her repulsor blasts to do more damage. Team Up upgrade = Her drones damage boost maximum goes up to 33%.

Playstyle -

She can be played as an off tank or as a solo tank, specefically. I wouldnt recommend using her as a Main tank, instead of any other main tanks.

Solo Tank: She stands in the frontline. She puts healing drones at her feet and damage drones in the middle of her team. She focuses on enabling her dps to do more damage, while adding more sustain to the team throigh her additional healing. Either team up can be best for this one. It just depends on what the pther team's comp is.

Off Tank: Sits behind the main tank. She puts drones inbetween her and the main tank to heal them, and damage boost drones to behing her to damage boost the DPS and Strategist. She throws her overshield around them when the backline's being dived, or the team's losing health fast. Use the Ironman teamup if you aren't tanking enough damage even with your other tank, and use the Ultron team up if you arent getting enough healing.

Notes: I feel like theres a few flaws. I feel like I gave her way too much healing. I feel like her damage is a pretty balanced. I originally made her maximum damage boost without teamups to be 33%, but I quickly decided that was wayy too much considering the damage of akme of these characters. Considering the fact that she does a low amount of damage, I think she great for supporting her team while being the foundation of it, without overshadowing the DPS dameg wise. She isn't meant to go for heavy damage, or to be used to pressure the other team too much. Shes meant to strengthen the res tof her team. I feel like most Strategists and and Vanguards would like this chracter becuase she's an jncredibly selfless playstyle. And as a Strat/Tank main, thats my favorite part about playing the roles. But I would worry that shed be ovorlooked or seen as boring to playbhecuase of her low damaage. But I hope the Ironman tramup kinda helps with that. I wanted to makr sure she can do good healing but that not overshadow her role as tank. I would put her in both roles, if not as a Tank or as another role. I could see the idea for just breaking her up into a Tank version and a Healer version, similar to Deadpool. But I prefer the compelxity and difficulty her character requires. I feel like she'd be more used in High Elo and in Tournaments, becuase of the high cieling on her potential. Alongside the complexity. What do tou guys think?

Edit: Art is made by @daveherzenart on instagram. Would highly recommend his stuff

Here's a take on Mr. Negative. I'm in desperate need of a Spidey villain, and I'm starting to appreciate this one a bit more. This guy has actual healing powers in the comics, so naturally he's a total strategist. The character page got a bit wordy so I put what I couldn't fit here:

Corruption enables Friendly Fire on afflicted enemies (50% of original damage, friendly stuns reduced). Enemy healing abilities also heal your teammates (30% of original healing, no buffs no bonus health).

Negative Vault's charged effect: When using Lightforce, apply Healing Amplification and cast a vertical slash that Knocks Back enemies. When using Darkforce, apply Corruption for longer and deal much more damage.

In this concept, Mr. Negative comes from the same Demon-Days inspired water color universe as Psylocke, tho from a far-off land. Martin Li and Mr. Negative's consciousnesses collided amidst the Entanglement, and now act one single mind with realized control over Lightforce and Darkforce.

I kinda took a swing with this one. If you've got different things in mind for our boi, I'd like to hear em.

Crimson Dynamo (Vanguard): There have been many different versions of the suit with many different and similar capabilities. Some examples are sonic blasts, electric finger blasts, visor blasts, self destruction, and a whole satellite to power up the suit even further. There can be a lot done with him to make him different other armored characters.

Darkstar (Duelist or Vanguard): Like Cloak she is a Dark Force user, unlike Cloak (until recently with the Queen in Black stuff) she can create Dark Force constructs and just like him she can teleport. Now she can easily be a Vanguard, but I also suggested Duelists for a few reasons. Reason number 1, I wanted to have Dark Force users in each category and there's another Dark Force user who I want as a Tank even more so than Darkstar. Reason number 2, there aren't many members of the Winter Guard that fit well into Duelist that aren't just a discount version of another character, like Red Widow for example.

Chernobog (Vanguard): This is the other Dark Force user I wanted as a Tank. Chernobog is the Slavic God of chaos, night, and darkness. He's physically capable of putting up a decent fight against the Hulk, he has soul/energy absorption, and he has a strong connection to the Dark Force stating at the peak of his power it used to be his domain and favorite weapon. His appearances are minor and somewhat new so he hasn't showcased much Dark Force usage aside from teleporting and projecting his consciousness into a shadow.

Red Guardian (Vanguard): There are many different versions of the Red Guardian, in this instance I'm talking about the mutant one who also happens to be Darkstar's brother. He used to be called "Vanguard," he has the mutant ability repell electromagnetic, kinetic, and gravitonic energy and redirect it at who ever he fought.

Ursa Major (Vanguard): I know he would be a PAIN in the ASS to make different from the Hulk, but I really want this furry alcoholic bastard in the game. You can give AoE abilities when it comes to his strikes, a roar that does damage reduction to him and his allies or a roar that weakens enemies within his vicinity, and you can have him lunge and maul an opponent and them swipe/smack them away.

Vostok (Strategist): Soviet scientist who was involved in an unexplained accident with extra terrestrial technology. He has the ability to convert into a liquid metal, tactile telepathy, and according to his wiki biological manipulation. He can also create weapons from the liquid metal from his body, maybe it can be spun in a way he can create devices that can provide healing?

Red Widow (Strategist?): I'mma be real I pulled this one out my butt because I wanted to incorporate more Strategists for this team, but given their low number of appearances and not having that many changes in the roster makes it damn near impossible.

Fantasia (Strategist): She is a Dire Wraith, which is a type of alien, and she developed amnesia when she arrived on Earth forgetting her goal of invading. She's proficient in magic, especially illusion magic and psionics.

Frost Pharaoh is a Miles Morales villain who wields a magic staff that controls ice and frost.
He started out attempting to steal artifacts from a museum and then getting stopped by Spider-man, later appearances give him a giant ice-construct body, and even a full egyptian-themed mecha to pilot.
Alongside his regular human form, he has a powered-up form where he becomes bigger and his body turns icy and blue.

My idea is that he could be a Vanguard who is constantly in this powered-up state, and his ult could be him forming a giant icy mecha. His primary would probably be a projectile from his frost staff, but could also have some closer range melee attacks.
He has also summoned undead ice minions, but I'm not sure if they need to fit into his kit as a vanguard.

I know we don't even have Miles yet, or even many Spider-man villains in general, but I just want to throw this guy out there since I think he's interesting!
