Morbius I always liked Morbius character in the classic Spider-man the animated series.Well he was really cheesy with the censorship so that his hands had like octopus blood sucking stuff on them.
Funny thing is, Morbius the Vampire in the game is not based on Bleeding he don't have any moves that applies it...the consistency in Marvel Avengers alliance is astonishing.
So finally a non bleeding character and he still sucks.
And I mean really sucks.
Morbius got almost no damage output he is purely based on debuffs on the enemies which are luck based and their effect are luck based so its luck on top of luck.
I would even go so far to say that Morbius could be the games worst 1v1 character.
Morbius like Blade don't really have a 4th move as an ultimate instead its a self buff(like Blade) and his third move is instead his ultimate(like Blade).
This move his his real attack then, so to speak its his only viable move.
And its so bad. Horrible, it just stinks. Its one of those super shitty moves were its a chance, a % chance that debuff will be afflicted. Not 1 but all 3 of them. Sure all 3 are very nasty debuffs so its not like this move is bad because as long as 1 of these hit its ok, well only getting in disoriented is not such a good thing. Then its just a bad version of Fantomex third attack. Well Fantomex has a 100% chance for a disoriented debuff the attack deals like 10x damage and its stealth(awesome for Tactician). Morbius third move has zero damage, like really zero base damage. And you hav to get lucky.
But hte worst part is that all its debuffs, disoriented, mind control and possessed are also all based on luck. You can disoriented their whole team and nothing bad happens to them. Possessed will make them attack but what if they attack the tank instead of the glass cannon and do like zero damage?
So its chance that the debuffs even land and then chance that they do what you want...His buff ability is also luck based it gives a varied of buffs and even debuffs and his second ability can debuff the team by a low chance. Just wow, such a bad character everything is luck in the wrong way,.
Its not like e.g Quicksilver who alway does really high damage and always goes first and on top of that he can be lucky and get his extra attack and then get extra lucky and critical hit with it in the perfect timing.
The difference here is that QS is always good and he might be amazingly overpowered if lucky. Morbius is just absolutely useless unless he get really lucky were well he might be awesome but the chance is just so low for everything turning out perfect for him. Once per 100 game hes awesome, not the score anyone wants to aim for.
The character design is just flawed. a character that only does something if he gets extremely lucky.
His second ability is an attack that boots his stats further and heal him very slightly.
Then his first attack is his strongest purely damage attack. It has zero utility just exploit on the weirdest exploit so far in the game, mind stuff like mind control etc. Sure he can apply that but its lucky if he do and possess only last for instantly a turn..so he cant exploit that he needs like Dr.Voodoo the only other character with that move to first set it up.
A lot of weird bad ideas on Morbius which is sad as he is a cool character. He also do have a Bleeding based passive that makes him critical 100% on Bleeding Targets...but he cant even apply bleeding himself.
You know its a bad character if they cant even synergies their own abilities.
Hes ultimate is 100% useless in 1v1, he exploits the most unusual stats in the game resulint in zero damage and again if that is to be applied in a 1v1 it means spending 1 turn doing zero damage to maybe do high damage turn 2, crazy bad. He cant control his buff he gains and can even give debuffs to himself and team mates lastly he got a passive that he cant use at all by himself instead he forces someone else to have to be in his team and yet again makes him even more useless 1v1.
Good luck making wining with Morbius you will need it.
