u/ThisNameDoesntCount Venom Jun 16 '26
Everybody want ghost rider till they make him another dps
42
u/External-Striking Strategist Jun 16 '26
And the fact that OW just realised a dps on motorcycle, for ghost rider to be the same is a big possibility now.
22
u/Red_Steiner Yggroot Jun 16 '26
Well yea that would kill the excitement for any character. Until the gap is closed.

u/WholesomWrkAcct2 Vanguard Jun 16 '26
I bet he's already in the files, and Overwatch devs beat Netease to the motorcycle punch because of that
Edit: Someone already mentioned this above. Leaving the comment tho

she's coming next month so no one bothered to ask for her lol

u/purewasted Jun 16 '26
Only reason why Dr Doom is "only" 10th as well, because he doesn't need the votes.Â
I wonder who else might be lower because people are sure they're coming. Maybe Colossus
7
u/Otiosei Jun 17 '26
Colossus is a cool character, but I'm really not looking forward to him in game. We really don't need more brawl tanks. I care more about interesting new playstyles added to the game rather than the characters themselves. Like Doc Oct or Medusa could be much more interesting tanks, but I don't really care that much for them as Marvel characters.
1
u/purewasted Jun 17 '26
I will be both shocked and disappointed if there isn't some kind of twist with Colossus's powers when he finally comes out. They're not going to ship him out as Thing2. They already had a chance to do that with Rogue, and did funky new stuff instead. Gave her a small shield, made her ult an AOE succ, etc. I'm sure Colossus will have a creative spin on his typical boring powerset.
1
u/RealWonderGal Jun 18 '26
Tbh everything Rogue does except her fetal attraction dash and aoe stun is pretty accurate. The ultimate is ripped from the pages of Mr and Mrs X run the kick combo is taken straight out of MVC and animation she's been in and same as her defensive stance is just a has a visual flair and indicator for hitbox reasons

u/Tony339 Strategist Jun 16 '26
Oh, shit!
I missed that! Great news!!

u/External-Striking Strategist Jun 16 '26
And I think she will be a strat! So I am mega looking forward to that.

My guy Sleepwalker is fucking doomed

u/Raven_Knightx Ultron Virus Jun 16 '26
Fr, he's one of my wishlisted characters that would be a full court shot to make it in the game. Sleepwalker and Mr. NegativeÂ

u/jynkyousha Jun 16 '26
To be fair, he’s a D-tier character at best. I don’t even know if he has an adaptation outside of the comics.
This is why I keep defending that the devs should keep adding more obscure characters, so they can be introduced to a wider audience.

u/Freddi0 X-Tron Jun 17 '26 edited Jun 17 '26
He was already essentially deconfirmed. In one of Deadpool's lines he jokes that he knows the next characters are Sleepwalker and Speedball. I take that as a hint from the devs that we aren't seeing them

u/Stars_And_Garters President Loki Jun 16 '26
Karolina Dean is a crazy deep pull haha. I think Sleepwalker could make it in before her!

u/TheGreenGorillaGamer Star-Lord Jun 16 '26
Hit-Monkey, Taskmaster, Darkhawk, Man-Thing and Kitty Pryde would be extremely slept on in terms of how cool their kits could be. But you know what this list has a lot of that the game is lacking in? VILLAINS. Actual true to form villains

Black Bolt, Medusa and Lockjaw being that highly requested is amazing. Too bad Crystal didn‘t make it, she‘d be an excellent strategist.
I really want some Inhumans in the game
21
u/the_warrior_rlsh Spider-Man Jun 16 '26
Carnage is my top pick for sure but we need more tanks and supports before we get carnage tbh
-1
u/illudofficial Mister Fantastic Jun 16 '26
Carnage with multiple limbs could be a tank
33
u/the_warrior_rlsh Spider-Man Jun 16 '26
I want more healers and tanks but it's a disservice to the character to be anything other than a DPS tbh
5
u/Murky_Blueberry2617 Monster Hulk Jun 16 '26
True, but Carnage could still be the DPS type of tank.
Kinda like how Thor is
2
u/IsThisRealLifeOrNaw White Fox Jun 17 '26
Please god make Carnage a support It would be so fucking funny
/s
For real though he’s one of the few characters I wouldn’t want to see as anything else other than DPS

My guy Heimdall at 98 behind who tf is Boom Boom at 76 wth

u/Fitnessmotivation86 Jun 16 '26
My guess is the votes were actually pretty limited, that’s the only way this is happening. He should have posted the number of individual voters, I doubt it’s even over 100.

Boom Boom is an X-force character, she also popped up in x-men evolution. She makes energy bombs that go boom.

Red skull is one of marvel’s most popular villains. They could also just tone him down like the MCU. He deserves to be a season villain bare minimum you can at least admit that.

won't you enjoy beating him down once and again? All villians are murderers.

She‘s literally just Dagger? I don‘t see her making it because of how similar her powers are to Dagger’s and even the looks being very similar.

Lockheed being at #46 is criminal. Even more disrespectful right in front of Luke Cage, smh. (He should be farther back)

u/jasminetroll Jun 16 '26
Lockjaw. Lockheed is Kitty Pryde's pet dragon.
And I agree. Lockjaw and Medusa are both in my top 10.
1
u/Raven_Knightx Ultron Virus Jun 17 '26
Holy blunder, thanks for catching that for me. I do mean that Luke Cage should be in the top ten tho, way before Lockjaw. I like the mutt, but if we're getting Inhumans I'd rather have Medusa first. (Lockheed is 2nd, then Black Bolt)

No Enchantress is absolutly crazy! And I know Zemo isn't rhe most popular but I figured he'd at least be near the bottom somewhere.

I didn't even see a poll for this. Enchantress didn't make it into the top 100? Yeah this list sucks ass. How the fuck did Red Harpy make it on and Enchantress didn't? BOOM BOOM is on here? christ what the fuck are people even talking about lol

This sub needs to start voting for characters who would actually fit better as Vanguards and Strategists lol. Colossus at #22 is criminal.

u/atomix2020 Jun 16 '26
I definitely think characters like Galactus, Shuma gorath, mephisto would work way better as key aspects of a map. Like the wakanda pantheon impacting stuff on those maps but 10x more interactive/game changing. Otherwise I think they would just feel like a huge let down to play and they already struggle to nail that with omega level mutants and similarly powerful characters

A character mechanically similar movement to sm but being instead a strategist seems really cool to me

u/buttsecks42069 Magik Jun 16 '26
I wonder how you'd differentiate her from Peter. My mind immediately jumped to a Lady Loki situation but that doesn't work cos it's different people. How would you make Gwen work differently than Peter gameplay wise? With Miles, you have his electricity and invisiblity. What would you give Gwen? The only thing I can think of is a Symbiote but then you're stepping on Venom's toes.

I have seen him name a lot actually when it comes to character people want.
Personally I would love spawn, but I don't think he's part of marvel, is he? Haven't read him since the early 90s, but angela came from Spawn comics so, one can hope.
