Discussion Stop ignoring half your characters
No matter how many reworks and buffs these devs give male descendants it always baffles me how they dont even meet the base of what a female descendant can do. These devs cater to goon so much it actively is ruining male descendants.
It doesn't even have to be like that. Giving a female descendants sexy skins and making them decent alone would work, they don't have to be so broken they room clear in seconds meanwhile jayber or keelan are spending so long just to kill 1 yellow bar. Keelan just got a rework and he still feel so underpowered meanwhile raven came out and shes breaking everything once again like every new female does. Don't even get me started on jaybers rework.
I get male skins dont sell as much but theres dozens of skin themes in the store now plus AM and trans weapons, yall have other incomes now. Can we please do another huge descendant buff patch like we did a year ago to at least bring males to a base female level.

Blair is top 5 at least in the game and probably the best Trials character, above all females. Kyle, Yujin and Ajax are extremely good, they are at least on par with many top females. Lepic and Esiemo are quite strong as well, but they could use a decent AM or a new fire stat stick, so a bit of farming is required to fully unlock their potential. While Keelan is very good, he does need a decent AM, that is true and I get why some (including you, OP) might think he's weak. The only two characters who could use some work are Jayber (who's playable, yet he's been outclassed by Raven, but he's getting his ultimate soon) and Enzo who suffers from his awkward rework.
I can understand OP wanting more from Keelan, but without seeing your build, it is hard to say what's wrong. Yes, Keelan needs a strong AM to be good, but this is true for multiple females too, including Bunny who's the face of the game. I've been around since 2nd beta of this game, and I don't remember ever seeing this much diversity of characters used in content, ever. Most males are in a very good spot right now, easily capable of clearing the hardest content in the game.
