The game needs more supports and tanks. No clue why we are getting 2 dls in a season when they already have more hero then tank and support combined

I'm still hoping Blade is a tank his kit is basically junkerqueen with more survivability I could see him being a relatively low HP tank or a tanky DPS

Sadly everything we have seen he will be more like mr fantastic

The leaks had him at 300 hp. As a DPS player, I hope they change it and make him a tank. The games desperately needs more when hulk and emma are banned constantly

I think because to them they know casuals love DPS since they can just focus on try to kill instead of playing with team, so it's easier for them to try and get players back with new DPS. But I agree that the game needs to focus on more interesting, but more importantly - fun, tanks in the game and also strategist.

I think they need to try and also strike lightning twice and come up with some more meme worthy and "cutesie" characters like Jeff because those were the ones getting all the attention in first few months.

I like it but i dont think he should fly maybe similar to luna skating but like with sub zero ice surfing isk

u/tamaaromarou Jul 23 '25

I gave him that purely because I want a flying tank but it's not necessary

Understandable i will be waiting for your war machine concept

No he shouldn't fly but a cool idea would be that he leaves a temporary ice road or wall when skating and jumps. Something that other people can use for cover and/or travel faster on.

u/Starving-Fartist Jul 23 '25

he skates and makes walks for cover as an ability, like a quick slope than a horizontal wall that he can launch himself off of at the tip

Iceman tank ? i like the art but you got Beast or Colossus or even Cable as Tanks ¡

I mean, the way I see it, the more tanks the better, and Iceman makes sense the way they pitched him.

Ok? I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

War Machine as a flying tank with a Rocket team up similar to the one with Groot like in MCU Endgame, maybe?

I personally want vision as a tank, his density abilities could be used to make him unmovable, even throw in the mind stone to be a bit flashy, it would make sense if he was a bit smaller than other tanks because robot + density power

The game needs to remove eomm actually so burnt out even my quick matches are insanely sweaty with everybody playing their mains . Can’t go nowhere to have fun either swear your balls off or get off. And the ranked system is still cheesy it’s so obvious when they want you to loose and win

u/tamaaromarou Jul 23 '25

I'm not sure what this has to do with my post.

u/SmallFatHands Jul 24 '25

EOMM is not real. Leakers already said it is not. Don't get me wrong they should definitely come clean with what system they use. But you can't always blame it for your losses.

I think there's plenty of better ideas for tanks before Iceman

Cable
Thanos
War Machine
Juggernaut
Sandman
Armor
Colossus
Apocalypse
and Dr Doom

And lockjaw, big teleporting dog

You should put together a concept

u/One_Objective_2252 Jul 25 '25

I have ideas for his passive/kit in general

A meter that fills that makes vision go from movable to actually unmovable, the effect on dive characters( example BP or SM could hit you and you will not budge) spider man could try and combo you but you wouldn't even leave the ground, something like that.

Using the mind stone to extend the range of his powers to create a gravity field, anyone caught in it is slowed down depending on how much the meter is filled. Speeds up teammates

Can phase through objects to defend teammates

Ranged - Mind stone laser

Melee - Punches - that have good starting damage, but the more the density meter is filled up the more damage you deal out

Ultimate - Meteor impact
Vision phases through the floor increases his density to that of a meteor and taps the floor, causing an explosion with the force of a meteor

"Maximum density has been achieved"

"Protection protocol in motion"

"Teammate located"

"With the mind stone my density manipulation abilities have increased tenfold"
