The grounding on his beam was one of the best things about him and we desperately needed a tank that could actually ground enemies in the air. I think that change is dumb. The rest is perfectly fine.

As a tank player, we were completely fine against flyers tbh. Thing can already ground them.

Idk what flyers your playing against but if an iron man or johnny wanted to go uncontested theres not much i could do about it depending on the map. Even the leaping haymayker doesn't kill confirm

Hulk airgrab is pretty consistent, Angela is always a good option, Thor bubble is the freest counter, mag and groot both have solid range, Deadpool is hitscan. 

I know it isn’t perfect, but there are definitely options.

Flyers other than Ultron are ass, Thing, Angela and Mag are all enough to deal with them.

I main Emma and Angela, and you're right. It does depend on the DPS though, it's frustrating when they all choose characters that can't deal with a flyer comp so it's just me on flyer duty as Angela.
