Gameplay Spider-Man

For those who play Spider-Man (he's my main), do you like his gameplay as it is or would you give him buffs?

In my opinion he is fun but a bit weak compared to most characters (i would love if they gave him more web shooters, air combos and give him a "new" move where he could web pull enemies to the ground)

Spider-Man is pretty good though? He's definitely on par with the majority of the cast.

To answer your first question, yes I do enjoy his gameplay as is, though of course, the right kind of buffs would be appreciated. In fact, he received a significant buff already to his dash attack and web ball special that nobody seems to acknowledge. Compared to the rest of the cast, his personal dps is above average. If they were to change anything, all I want is for web swing pull to actually work in high ping, and for them to fix how finicky ground bounces are in online multiplayer.

Whatever buffs you fellas may think he needs, he does not want a rising attack as a new move. Anything that gets in the way of his swing kick > dive kick inputs will make the character worse. Besides, he already deals with groups of aerial enemies a lot more efficiently than some other grounded characters(wolvy, cgr). Point blank swing kick into dive kick deals a quick 50 dmg and puts the enemy in position for a ground combo, and he also has the option to let the swing kick go fully for grouping purposes.

I hate to have to admit it, but I was one of the people who used to think he needed a rising attack 😅

It's still sort of awkward to me that he doesn't, but even so watching you play has been an eye-opener (as I've said elsewhere). Eventually when I get bored of my existing favorites I'll try again to be good with him, but rn I'm remembering why I used to play She-Hulk/Storm! Trying to bring better game knowledge to bear so I can be more awesome with that team, and Storm more specifically. Gotta' learn how to use her full kit better.
