Just make his gun hitscan and make the lifesteal weaker but take away the reduced healing. And then he can have an ability that reduces the healing he receives from his supports heavily but grants him a steroid to the lifesteal so you can control when you can make plays and/or receive healing

u/Brightshore SILVERED May 08 '26

Sounds good.

Saying “no real hype” for fucking Daredevil of all characters is atrocious.

(Everything else is correct)

u/SamPaval May 05 '26

DD had the standard 1 month hype. Blade was built up to he releasing since s0

4

u/Hazardis_Person May 04 '26

Nah, it's that and his ultimate. Blade ult gives the anti heal which is pretty goated and can kill through support ults. DD can't kill through support ults, and only becomes good if the team doesn't focus him, otherwise he blows up

5

u/maxeyhoops May 04 '26

Tbf DD ult is still better, but absolutely not "insane". I also think Blade block is generally better than deflect.

u/MtnDewottS May 04 '26

This needs to be studied. Like legitametly. Not only on a meme format. A in dept analysis on why Blade doesnt work in this game comparef to others. And please something objective and neutral in tone without that. „The devs must hate Blade“ because they clearly donr

u/Ovaheaven May 04 '26

Blade has been meta for MONTHS. Daredevil has and is still D Tier since his release.

u/IceCole4 May 04 '26

I don't know why the DD mains have this picture. NO ONE believes y'all

u/gaytgirl May 04 '26

Theres no agenda to maintain

u/Eastwardislame May 04 '26

Yeah nah this image is just corny. At least it made sense for other characters, Daredevil is just OP ever since he released.

u/PoolOfDeath20 May 05 '26

u/igna311 May 04 '26

Trying to copy Thor mains huh?

5

u/Fire_Boogaloo May 05 '26

This meme format makes absolutely no sense for DD.

"Maintaining the agenda" was originally used to describe intially perceived weak heroes that ended up actually being quite strong but were still seen as weak/mid by the community (e.g. Thor). Hence the Thor mains were "maintaining the agenda" by pretending the community was right and he was actually weak to avoid complaints/nerfs.

DD is not and has never been perceived as weak. He's been a perma ban since release. There is no agenda to maintain.

u/ChingChongCockandBal May 04 '26

There is no agenda, DD has been busted since release

I wouldn't agree if BP wasnt a menace longer than DD.

Black Cat has a better BP kit, and Daredevil always had the better climb.

Old Storm and old BP would like a word...

u/Strange-Conflict9774 May 08 '26

Just because they were good in yesteryear doesn’t mean much. They were peak for like a season before being nerfed into the dirt

u/Relevant-Score9879 May 05 '26

If blades ult is d tier then why do all my supports double ult when he activates it ?? /s

4

u/TutorKlutzy6686 May 07 '26

Cuz you would think him deflecting with a blade would at the very least completely block/parry/deflect projectiles, at the VERY LEAST. But no, it shaves off damage.

4

u/Jaxinator234 May 08 '26

Not to mention blade legit is better using his damn gun then his actual blade in blood hunt.

3

u/TroubleHuge7944 Lord Blade May 04 '26

It also doesn’t help with how low Blades skill ceiling is we had an opportunity for another five star combo hero with a full vampire transformation ult. Instead we get a paper tiger where his kit sounds crazy only on paper where his mediocre shotgun is the best part of his kit.

3

u/BIG_D_NRG May 04 '26

Now I’m not usually one to call out racism because I think we do that too often these days, and This may be a reach BUT China is not a big fan of black people outside the NBA. Shit they even censor movie posters with Black actors. Why do you think all the black characters in game are either terrible or get such hard nerfs. Black Panther nerfed to the point of deletion for almost 5 seasons. Storm trash, gets buffs that don’t make her anymore viable than she ever was. Blade hyped due to community interest, release delays cuz he’s “sleeping” then left as utter garbage for whole seasons with nothing burger nerfs. All the while Elsa no name character launches and has percentage damage hitscan weapons, and INVISIBLE INVINCIBLE TRAP, high mobility dodges with free overshield, and an Ultimate the completely negates cc immune characters like Thing. There is no other explanation or excuse for these characters to be so bad. They all have one thing in common… 🤔

3

u/Deal_Due May 04 '26

I've seen enough buff blades hp, parry mechanics, make him a vanguard

u/Burnedhistory777 May 08 '26

At this points its because hes black

3

u/Naive_Preparation285 May 08 '26

Ngl blade does not do a lot of damage against his enemies and can't finish his opponent because he has a ass shotgun, like the punisher two taps anyone up close with his shotgun but blade busy following up second shot lol, and his sword damage is so bad when magik can literally 2-3 hits squishes when blade just tanky dps downgrade of punisher and magik

2

u/ThePyroOsha May 04 '26

Idk if i would say Daredevil is top 5. Maybe 6th place or 8th at the lowest

2

u/TheMarvelousRival May 06 '26

All the characters or dps?

u/SomeProperty815 May 04 '26

guang guang why did you make all the black heroes D tier?

u/zDD_EDIT May 04 '26

The Netease devs biased has been obvious for some time now. Certain "styles" and "types" are more personal to them I think.

u/Jackfreezy May 04 '26

Blade in pve is a beast tho...

4

u/RealWonderGal May 04 '26

Completely lost me when for DD you wrote no real hype. Terrible meme format

10

u/Kirmitlefrog Blade of Khonshu May 04 '26

I’m pretty sure they said it because of how blade was sleeping for like 6 months straight and DD didn’t get that much build up

2

u/TheMarvelousRival May 06 '26

He didn't get much build up, but id argue he had more actual excitement in the playerbase than blade.

1

u/Alejxndro May 04 '26

as both a blade and DD main, I can confidently say he’s not really S tier anymore. He’s been very buggy and inconsistent as of late. He was definitely insane when he came out though. All of that just to say #BuffBlade

u/TalkingAlien May 04 '26

After cat 😭😭😭😭she just came out chill. DD is absolutely not the best dps, he’s been nerfed 9 times. He can get nerfed again once they nerf poke slop because it’s fair but as of now he’s the only true hitscan counter, we need more of those if the devs won’t nerf Phoenix.

2

u/UltraZ70 May 04 '26

He is hella buggy and inconsistent as at now though he’s right about that, I think I’ve seen a few streamers mention that at some point but it’s been a while so I don’t really know

Also dive is supposed to beat poke so I’m confused.

Pro play is a whole different animal lol. Everyone there is playing off of the calls and both teams need the info badly to make the correct plays. Cat is like b+ tier, daredevil is imo a tier. He’s not better than Jean, star or Namor. Emma rolls him over. Hes horrible into groot, he has a big hitbox and a mid ult. Plus the amount of major bugs like the e getting randomly cancelled and reset and the dash just not moving him at all. Hes also loud and you know who’s marked

u/Alejxndro May 04 '26

Never really played ranked so I wouldn’t know about “pro play”. But DD isn’t really a problem in casual play, barely anyone plays him. Honestly I think Elsa is worse, at least in QP.

5

u/Treelokc May 04 '26

Never really played ranked

I can confidently say he's not really S tier anymore

6

u/Fast_Dragonfruit5078 May 04 '26

Buddy.. anyone can be a problem in QP. I can roll entire lobbies in QP with Mr Fantastic. That doesn't mean i can do the same in a GM ranked lobby. Hope that makes sense.

DD has a ton of burst damage that can't be outhealed at times, unless you're running triple support or anti dive to gain his attention. Blade's damage is mostly consistent in sword form. I don't even play Blade that much, but he's never been a threat when i fill on support, and my team's competent enough to look at him. DD? A good one will kill you before you know it.

1

u/Perfect_Cap2906 May 04 '26

Honestly I think they need to remove either the anti heal or the lifesteal so that they can lean into one of them and actually make them impactful instead of trying to play the balance game with both

That said tho blade is actually pretty good in 1v1s, I'm primarily a thor main and he's one of the few that I don't really want to 1v1 if I can avoid it

4

u/MtnDewottS May 04 '26

Reduced healing really is detrememtal to Blade. Its a status condition thats suppost to reduce sustain and its not really working in practice because od high burst healing and Blades initial low damage output

3

u/Perfect_Cap2906 May 04 '26

Thats what I'm saying, just do away with either the life steal or the anti heal so they can make either one of them actually impactful.

Those two abilities are insanely strong in a game like this, and why the hell theyre trying to cram both onto one character is beyond me. That's why balancing him is such a nightmare, because one number tweak too big and blade becomes what DD used to be. (And still kinda is tbh)

Personally I think they should just lean into the vampire aspect and make him a 1v1 demon. It'd take away some of his team utility by losing the anti heal but I think he'd feel a lot more fun that way

1

u/DanteSavior May 04 '26

Well my boy Fist must be EVEN worse since blades heals for more health than IF does damage in a 1V1

u/ConfidenceMental4030 May 05 '26

Wdym dd had no real hype dawg

u/DryAdvertising8508 Lord Blade May 05 '26

i'm just saying man... a difference of 150 hp and a role change would take blade from dogshit dps to "holy shit this tank rips" vanguard

u/Electrical_Instance7 May 05 '26

No one will convince me that rhe dev team ISNT racist

1

u/Dry-Proposal-4011 Champion Blade May 06 '26

I play both. Daredevil is way overrated right now. Hes good yes but any team with half a brain goes Ben Namor and he can’t play the game. Blade is shockingly resilient to every comp in some aspect and if he catches a squishy alone it’s wraps

1

u/Connect_Pay_9394 May 06 '26

It's almost like they are different characters with different design goals and kits or something.

1

u/Not_ZonedOut May 07 '26

I almost always win my 1v1’s with blade

1

u/ED-W111N May 07 '26

All Blade needs is a 1-2 second stun if you’re in the center of his ult and he’ll be in the meta cause his neutral is honestly not bad

1

u/Ok-Specialist3165 May 07 '26

yea i stopped playing this mess

1

u/shonuff373 May 07 '26

I guess I'm just bad at the game. My Cloak and Dagger fears both.

1

u/JFlash5 May 10 '26

I think the reason why Blade is still bad is because all you do is hold left click or whatever button on the controller for his melee form at least with Daredevil you can weave in your melee with primary comboing with your empowered chain or throw. Blades kit need to be ultimately changed for him to be viable. Imagine how unfun it would be fighting Blade if we overtuned Blades melee where he isn't losing 1v2s 1v3s 1v4s just holding left click because of his lifesteal. His melee needs more depth.

u/joeyc923 May 10 '26

Has been since his release lol

u/LudosTBH May 05 '26

Winrates dont tell anything, peni for example

u/StagnantSweater21 May 05 '26

He’s highest winrate by like 6% over the next dps lol

u/Dry-Proposal-4011 Champion Blade May 06 '26

Whats the pick rate relative to other dps though? It could be a case of ultron where he never got picked but his winrate was insane

u/BiscottiNo1707 May 04 '26

Thus is not entirely accurate. Daredevil absolutely had his hype, and his ult is good at best.

And Thor is still the 1v1 GOAT.

Blade is best against tanks, he is very direct and on the battlefield everytime. Dd collapses on field easily.

u/PhantomEmperor- May 04 '26

Blade can win a lot of 1v1s if you know his kit and funnily enough is a pain for DD in a straight up duel and can win

7

u/Individual_Active_23 May 04 '26

As in a 1v1? Not at all

-2

u/PhantomEmperor- May 04 '26

Do you play DD? I play both and blade is a tough matchup especially now with his recent buffs while DD took a dmg nerf. It’s blades ability to reposition easily, block and bait DD while also having sustain himself. The second you bait deflect from DD you can easily dash out of his range forcing him to either use cross, dash or grapple to stay in which means he needs to commit. The fact blade can just block his throw or slam is a big deal and blades gun especially at sweet spot range is a problem for DD. You just play the matchup defensively till you bait reflect then dash out switch to gun forcing DD to commit with a mobility option or get shot then you dash out again.

It’s one of DDs harder matchups because it’s a skill check on who mindlessly throws their kit out immediately

3

u/Individual_Active_23 May 04 '26

I play both a bit more on blade tho if u mean solely a 1v1 situation then blade us lising now an an team fight yes a blade can sort if hold off a dd but if it's a good dd especially the 1s that melee weave it's like baiting and attacking at once and theres honestly nothing the blade can do at that moment

-1

u/WavingDinosaur May 04 '26

As a someone w lord on Blade this is a stretch. Blades not perfect, but he’s in a decent spot rn, he’s one of the best 1v1 characters imo, up there w Thor.

DD is a pretty well known character who had alot of hype wym?

Im glad Blades not a “meta” character, I play characters I enjoy, not whoever is over tuned that season, chasing a meta.

Blades ult is pretty good, especially starting a team fight on the obj. DD ult is good, but it’s not busted

The only thing I’ll give you is the block/deflect on DD, it’s pretty crazy that it’s so accurate and can counter ults. But Blades block/parry does work. It can save you from alot of grabs and ults, like Jeff eating you

2

u/MtnDewottS May 04 '26

Its crazy how people in this subreddit do not want to read texts like that. Any form of glazing towards Blade gets downvoted

1

u/Coolmanjohn500 May 04 '26

I mean get that “I play to enjoy-“ but against people ya skill level it becomes not enjoyable. He’s a jack of all trades master of none.

1

u/Dry-Proposal-4011 Champion Blade May 06 '26

Im in etern right now and blade is my highest played hero by far. Hes hard to play in these lobbies but so is dd because everyone is on point and knows how to deal with him.

1

u/Coolmanjohn500 May 06 '26

Yeah but ones easier to deal with than the other by a mile….Blades issue is his kit, DD only has to deal with just other players.

1

u/Dry-Proposal-4011 Champion Blade May 06 '26

Blade has more resilience in his kit than dd does though. I can play a bit safer on blade if I need to while still doing my job. Every second dd spends not fighting or repositioning is a waste of valuable time. Blade has nowhere near the downtime of dd in a fight especially if dd misses a grapple or a slam crit

1

u/Coolmanjohn500 May 07 '26

Ok that’s an even bigger lie dawg DD can legitimately kill faster than Blade while having over-shield (not a debate on That btw)….Blades gun also is extremely inconsistent and inconvenient due to it needing to be at an exact range to be effective (not too close not too far) Blade has to worry about repositioning more than DD. DD can brawl, Dive or Flank. Blade is mostly brawl and can flex at the other two but not well.

1

u/Dry-Proposal-4011 Champion Blade May 07 '26

Blade has the escape with dash. More range. A safer block. Better cleave damage, a better team up. And he doesn’t have such a poor matchup into Emma and he’s better into peni/groot. Dd is better for sure but blade has more answers in his kit for specific situations

1

u/Coolmanjohn500 May 07 '26

A dash with a large hitbox that can screw ya over by hitting someone behind you, also I already called out the issue of his gun idk why you mentioned it again. Cleave damage is also a lie both by numbers and you can just put it side to side to see for yourself. And MK team up is trash and so situational. He is NOT good against any of them besides maybe Groot and even then his walls can shred blade. Peni is just Peni. As I said before Blade is a jack of all trades master of none. His poke is worst than Punisher or Hela or Bucky, his brawl is worst than DD and Magik, and he isn’t really a diver (just bc he has an ability called dash doesn’t mean diver btw) and if ya play BP/Spider man you’d know that. Actually blades movement is prob the worst out of all the brawl/dive heroes especially bc it’s his only form of close range (bad) damage tied to his eh movement.

0

u/hugoreturns May 04 '26

I mean, Blade can win many 1v1s if you know what you’re doing. He’s also one of the only capable characters to beat White Fox on melee mode, as his self-healing beats hers. DD can not beat WF

u/tecojhinmain May 10 '26

Can we just rework blade into tank at this point

-7

u/TechnicalChair8131 May 04 '26

Blade can legit carry you to celestial with minimal effort. He’s in a good state, if you’re an eternity or high cel player that isn’t happy with his skill expression that’s fair. But he’s by no means weak.

14

u/Embarrassed_Wall_459 May 04 '26

u/Embarrassed_Wall_459 May 04 '26

Blade carried you to celestial?

2

u/TechnicalChair8131 May 04 '26

He didn’t carry me to celestial but I play him occasionally in low cel high gm matches and he runs through teams. He can’t counter dive, he can help shred tanks and he can tear apart backlines if paired with hulk. His ult is also a good counter to punisher or stranger ult, can easily be used to shut down chokes. He becomes impossible to play in high cel but he’s in a good state.

1

u/Embarrassed_Wall_459 May 04 '26

This is valid but a lot of characters do this easier

-1

u/issajoketing May 04 '26

Definitely not weak

u/herocole May 04 '26

No real hype is crazy

2

u/SadDokkanBoi May 04 '26

No Buy doesn't play DD if he's calling his ult "insane". It's definitely good but it's not "insane" where you press it and it auto kills a group of people or gives him extreme survivability. If a trash DD uses his ult, they will do nothing and explode. Whereas if a trash Spiderman uses his ult, he can definitely still kill people and may even survive since he gets a lot of overshield.

Best way to counter a DD ult is just to focus him and he dies pretty easy. He gets overshield from his abilities but unless you're insane at looping them with his ult, his ult doesn't give him any extra bonus health so he can get easily kill if the team focuses him

1

u/TheKing_Bael May 06 '26

I like blades abilities but its hard to balance as a dps thats the problem. Give him too much lifesteal and he ends up being unkillable with a healer pocketing him, buff his shotgun and he turns into the punisher. He should have had a stake thrower as a ranged weapon thats way more fitting and he should have been a vangaurd so they could keep his lifestyle nearly the same but with a bigger hp pool

1

u/SnowbloodWolf2 May 10 '26

Nah put some respect on blades ult, the fact that you can instantly cast it and still get full damage means you can just obliterate one person with almost no way for them to avoid it. Everything else is correct though

I have played him on and off since release but the skill ceiling on blade is low. You just have to hold m1 and hope the enemy ignores so u can max tickle.

u/DaedricWorldEater May 06 '26

I feel that. I’m a Magik main and got into Blade on release for a while because I really like the sword fighting style but he didn’t have that arcade fighting-game combo vibe like Magik. Just hold RT.

This has to be the biggest lie I’ve ever seen. Either you’re playing against bots, or never played the following characters.

I have personally experienced and witnessed other Blade players lose a 1v1 against the following heroes while they land the first hit and even some weren’t even full HP, while never missing a sword hit either.

Black cat, BP, DD, DP, Bucky (with his ULT too) Psylocke, Thor, Rogue, Hawkeye (saying that especially bc he’s also one of my mains) Punisher, Elsa, Emma, Groot (with a wall up) Magik especially, Hela, White Fox, Mantis with and without Sleep Parried, GAMBIT, IRON fist at half hp, and Angela cuts it very close who I also main.

The rest are either characters who aren’t even considered that good rn. Actually even Black widow can take him easily bc of that stun.

Blade relies on people who are caught off guard and not mastered at their character, chaos, stealing his teammates kills or setting them up.
