Colossos and Golden TQ 5000

[AgentZombie]

their dependency on buffs in order to do cool or powerful stuff is going to make this game boring and youre going to lose a lot of customers. I spent 90 points on panther to now have him be useless? It's not like i can return him now that he blows. Please don't nerf any more heroes.

You know whats funniest? They are nerfing heroes because they are too popular (wich acctually doesn't mean they are overpowered) but they are giving pasives to alt suits to make them stronger. Passives in atls are good. But nerfing? Nearly every nerfed hero becomes less popular so every of them would become popular one day. And what? They will nerf everybody, then again and again?

Lol. My steel fortrees colossus scrapper gets killed very quickly in PVP so doesn't seem like an unfair OP thing.. Could be cause he's L3 though..

I have yet to beat an opponent in PvP with Colossus. For instance, with a PvP rating of 1400, I just played someone with a rating of 1500 who had Colossus and Scarlet Witch. With Colossus's ability to block single-target attacks for 3 rounds(!), combined with Scarlet Witch's hexes and chaos shield, my opponent lost a few hundred off Colossus before my entire team was defeated.

Someone mentioned there are ways around Colossus's shielding ability. Yes, there are the multi-target attacks, which if you can build up enough Attack strength (e.g., Thor's Bruiser & Mjolnir strength bonuses), you can make one big thunderbolt attack. In the meantime, your team gets beat up while waiting for this build up. I suppose if all your characters had multi-target attack abilities, or sneak attack abilities, you can hit others. But the other thing is that Colossus takes so little damage when he is hit. Even Thor juiced up to the max both bonuses and using the Hammer Throw, doesn't make that big of dent in him.

Finally, I don't understand why Capt. America's shield was nerfed to 1 round, but now there is have an even more potent defense with Colossus's shielding ability for 3 rounds. (3 rounds is is too long, IMHO.)

Anyway, if Colossus's shielding ability doesn't get nerfed, Colossus and Scarlet Witch looks like the ultimate PvP combo, which used to be Thor & Capt. America (my current PVP team). I expect to see more of the higher rating players to have these 2 characters. I know that's what I'm aiming for now before I try to play with the "big boys & girls" again. <goes to cry in the corner>http://forum.playdom.com/images/icons/icon9.png

I think SW will be nerfed, and ending Colossus and SW combo. (I think the main problem is not Colossus shield, but SW hexes and chaos shield)

I want to remove it to.

Equip a Heart Tickler, use it on Colossus, and he will no longer intercept your attacks. (Or you can use BW or BP to the same thing.)

Captain counters, Colossus doesn't.
Captain soaks up AoE attacks and indirectly 1/3s their damage, Colossus doesn't.
Captain completely negates attacks, Colossus doesn't.

You may say Colossus is a lower CP hero, but how many CP does it take to get his uniform with the passive?
And you're only looking at the surface, what about Captain's other abilities? He was OP when he could use his Shield Guard until the end of time.

make a team with invisible woman / an agent with Goblin glider / both and blast them to hell.

try this-> po4->momentum generatorx4 on invisible woman -> lv9 skill-> lots of pain

None of Invisible Woman's attacks are "Unarmed Melee", so MG does nothing for IW.
