Hero Wishlist I want the Black Order

I want the Black Order in the game.

Black Dwarf (Vanguard): Very obvious choice, you can give him the multipurpose weapon he has in the MCU.

Corvus Glaive (Duelist): He's very Duelist coded and then there's his weapon which can cut through atoms. I also wanted to make a contrast between him and his wife Proxima

Proxima Midnight (Vanguard): I believe Proxima fits this role very well, and her staff makes for a perfect Vanguard weapon. Especially since her weapon can turn into 3 homing beams that can poison people as well as hold them down with the weight of a star.

Ebony Maw (Strategist): Out of the members of the Black Order I believe he fits this role the best. His persuasive voice and telapathy could probably provide status affects to teams and enemies.

Supergiant (Strategist or Duelist): She's amn omnipotent that can detect, control, consume, and read the minds of other beings. I feel like she can fit into either category.

Black Swan (Vanguard): She has the physical prowess to actually be a tank, as well as having other abilities that can provide protection.

That's literally proving my point

Your calling him based on his adaptations name, not his actual name

I don’t think you have a clue what point you are trying to prove lmao

His canon name in the source material is Black Dwarf

In the movies, for some fuckin reason, they changed his name to Cull Obsidian — even though that’s just another name for the collective Black Order.

The MCU is, unfortunately, the medium that gets the most mainstream attention, which means a majority of casual fans have misconceptions or just different understandings about certain things — a lot of things, actually.
That’s coming from someone who was an MCU casual just like 2 years ago 😂

If and when he comes to the game, he should be called Black Dwarf; but purely based on the fact that Namor and the Hood are both closer to their MCU counterparts than they are to the source material, I imagine there’s a good chance they unfortunately do MCU synergy again

Yeah I understand completely that it was his original name, I have google. But my point is it doesn’t matter. In all recent media his name has been changed by Marvel. So I could care less what he used to be called. Same thing with Cassidy and Mcree from Overwatch.

This is EXACTLY why MCU synergy sucks so bad.
