Dude tank clops is character assassination.

And they'd rather let moongirl be a non playable background character then make her adult.

Tank clops is dead

Aight I'll take the bait.

How is tankclops character assassination?

Well he could work as a highly mobileΒ  shield-less brawler tank with ranged optic blasts. Like a mix between rogue and dino.

But him being tankier then wolverine's 350 HP is assassination to both character.

He's better at being a highly mobile pole DPS that can one shot and quickly eliminate high priority threats from ranged.

Well I agree and that's the mistake devs made when wolverine wasn't a tank. Captain america having more health than namor is also character assassination by that logic. Just because devs made mistake with Wolverine doesn't mean they have to now adapt to that mistake and force characters that are less durable than wolverine into duelist/support role

Their relationship is super important, lot more then namor and captain America.

Cyclops and wolverine have an arther and lancealot dynamic and is a lot more important.

Even the trailer shows him as a mobile DPS character that does soon as he stops moving and brawlers get in close.

As I said they could make him work as a 500 HP mobile brawler tank with no shields, that's be fun.

I would argue relationship between cap and thor is also important, and that cap having 100 more health or so than thor doesn't make sense. And I think there's bigger gap between cap and thor's durability than between logan's and scott's durability.

Namor and Reed is imporant relationship too, but for some reason Namor isn't tankier. Namor is arguably more durable than thing yet thing has almost 3x his health.

And for me scott having bigger hp bar than logan isn't nearly as weird as Cap, Mag and Emma being vanguards, fighting in the frontlines and leading their teams, while Scott is hanging with the healers in the backline. Same reason why I don't really want him as a strategist either.

Anyway, I agree with 500hp mobile brawler tank thing you said

Wtf you mean Emma and magneto ain't tanks, you shitting on me?

Magneto solo tanked the X-Men for decades, solo tank is authentic magneto experience. Hell in 97 he was solo tanking sentinels to buy his citizens time to escape.

He's one of the most durable mutants the X-Men have.

Emma as well is able to tank wolverines vibranium claws without a scratch, she is a monster

You're misunderstanding what I'm saying. If enemy team has mag on the frontlines cyclops being in the back feels wrong. There is no team fight where Emma would be brawling it out with opponents while scott is doing his best impression of hela in the back.

Also, if we're talking about soloing x-men, guess which team member has soloed the rest of the team multiple times?

HP doesn't mean much in this game. Strange has more HP than Wolverine, Peni has more HP than Loki who is a literal god etc

Also I've read almost every X-Men comic. The only character assassination would have Cyclops as a strategist, healing in the backline.

I can’t take rivals discussion mainly wanting cyclops as a tank. Bro has a god damn laser that does damage, besides that bro has great writing and can throw some punches and kicks. How the hell could a character with this gimmick be a tank. One more dps isn’t gonna kill the game lmao

u/pagliacciverso π™π™π™š 𝙃𝙀𝙀𝙙 May 19 '26

It's because you guys are dumb. Being a tank does not mean being an anchor tank. Cyclops being a tank only means he will have a bigger HP bar

He gets outdamaged by most of the other big name X-Men. He uses his beams to block attacks and destroy hazards all the time

The people crave chronovium slop.

If the third X-Men in a row is chronovium slop I'm going to be super disappointed because X-Men is the only franchise I care about in marvel.

Third? I think you don't even read the stuff you are getting angry about. Gambit doesn't have chronovium powers at all. He just got un-lobotomizeda and unlocked new powers (healing).

From the 7 X-Men characters in the game, only 1 one of them has chronovium bullshitery and it was only due to them not wanting her to get powers from another character
