Is dash op or not?

If you look at new heroes, you’ll soon find out that all of them are so insanely strong. And soon, you won’t need to worry about Bunny and Duck. And I mean it when I soon. Very soon

The upcoming heroes are even broken than them :frowning: :frowning: :frowning:

And, please do not forget that they are sign-in hero, which means they are not rare or anything. Literally everyone has them

New heroes are really strong indeed, but none of them is even close to D&B (except maybe Beast). Duke and Bo have a crazy damage too, but they’re frontliners and it takes more time for them to do their best, being this way subject to CC. Goofy is practically undeadly, but his damage isn’t broken at all.

Don’t forget that Merida’s increase in attack speed and damage only happen when she reaches 50% health. And since she doesn’t have a healing skill, her being below 50% means she won’t last too much longer. That’s not always the case, but it often happens.

Another thing: to those who say that “it just needs some thinking and strategizing to counter them” - my reply is: it isn’t worth it. And it isn’t fun.

First of all, we’ve got to spend time agonizing out various combinations of toons, pump up those we have but have not been built up before just so we can test our theories, and then spend lots of time and frustrating battles testing out our theories beyond the effects of RNG. All this, while the D&B player just…builds and fields D&B. The obvious disparity of effort shows - arena comps are now pretty much nothing but Goofy-Duke-D&B combinations and worse: anyone not sporting the trio is an immediate high priority target.

Secondly, even if we did find a good counter, it’s probably going to involve a very specific, small set of toons that’s probably also going to need a good dose of RNG to make things work, and even then there’s a pretty good chance they’ll take some/significant damage or at the very least have to deplete energy to win. Good luck repeating that strategy over the course of a City Watch or Invasion, the former is murder right now.

So do buffs/nerfs happen much in this game?

I mean is it likely they would do something about the over the top damage!?

No, they don’t happen often - I think it’s unlikely anything will be done.

(other than releasing new heroes with even higher jacked up skills to counter it)

Psst. Aladdin jumps into the middle of the enemy team, which makes D&B turn towards him, redirecting the laser. If you’ve got his Genie disk, he might even survive long enough for CW.

CW shouldn’t be too much problem anyway, you can build up enough skills to nuke most of the enemy team before they can do much at all.

Aladdin does work sometimes, I’ve used him a lot to counter many similar front-line threats by turning them around.

Did you know that Chief Bogo can also counter D&B in our server? His Calhoun disk is super insane! He’s kinda OP in S19 now. Not only Aladdin can counter D&B.

Yep. But getting his Calhoun disk takes more effort than getting Aladdin to purple. :wink:

Of course, but it’s worth it. It helped because I observed that D&B moves too close to the enemy because their basic is a melee attack. Chief Bogo (Ca) will help Aladdin survive longer along with his Genie disk.

I think i found a strategy against ducky and bunny???

You see i was in the arena and the team i was battling the enemies with had elsa(a enemy freezing hero) along with goofy scar stitch and moana and the team i was facing against had the op duo (ducky and bunny) in it

Long story short

Elsa froze D&B and the team i was using defeated ducky and bunny before they had a chance to attack

Except if they put someone in front of ducky and bunny and she froze them instead. Then the nuclear bomb activates anyway.

I think one of the best ways to counter them is Bogo’s Calhoun Disk, as I’m pretty sure it stuns them long enough for Damage heroes to cut them down at the start.

Yes, true. That’s what I’m about in my earlier replies. I had a team that consists of Duke (Wo), D&B, Finnick (Ju), Aladdin (Ge), and Yax (Fr). Chief Bogo came and stunned Duke and D&B at the start of the battle.

I agree with this, there might be better strategies but having a freeze team like this, along with Frozone and Olaf, even Wall E maybe. Might be useful. Just a thought :slight_smile:

So true I hate the meta

Use Baymax. When D and B get their lasers off 3 seconds in, their shields should absorb a good chunk of the damage. Just make sure he is well leveled.

This raises a good question: since fights occur on up to 3 vertical planes at once, how do you ensure Bogo takes out D&B as his first target?
