Marvel Contest of Champions Wiki

Diablo is a Mystic Champion. Being a Mystic Champion, he has a Class Bonus against Cosmic Champions, but is weak to Science Champions.

Bio[]

An unrivaled alchemist and a member of Spanish nobility, Esteban Corazon de Ablo uses his arcane concoctions to lengthen his life, incinerate his foes and more. Driven by an unending desire to become as powerful as a god, Diablo now finds himself in the Contest hoping to secure the ISO-Sphere for his continued experimentation. Ambition pushes the Spanish nobleman to acquire power at all costs, and very few heroes can, or will, stand in his way.

Summary[]

Diablo’s has two primary mechanics that make him a strong champion to bring into Quests. His frequent, reliable regeneration found in his special 1 can allow him to survive numerous fights and his special concoctions can allow him to react to almost any opponent. Additionally, Poison effects only make him stronger!

Mechanics[]

The King of potions has returned to The Contest with a fresh face! Using his Special 2 and Special 1, combined with Medium 2 and Heavy Attack, stack as many Poisons as you can on the opponent for some massive damage over time! His brand new Pre-fights give Diablo pin-point precision on what kind of utility he needs at the drop of a hat!

Strengths and Weaknesses[]

Strengths[]

  • Poison Damage
    • Diablo is going to return to The Contest with some of the best Poison damage in the game! Give him a whirl wherever you might need some on demand Poison damage.
  • Stun Immunity
    • Dealing with some pesky defensive stuns like Encroaching Stun is a breeze with Diablo’s all new Philosophers mix!

Weaknesses[]

  • Poison Immunity
    • Tons of Diablo’s kit relies on the ability to apply Poisons, make sure you can!
  • Energy Resistance
    • The other share of Diablo’s damage comes from Energy Damage. Watch out for opponents with high Energy Resistance.

Recommended Masteries[]

  • Liquid Courage & Willpower
    • Diablo gains full Immunity to Poison Debuff damage, so he is able to take advantage of free damage and healing with Willpower!
  • Mystic Dispersion
    • Using Diablo’s Pre-Fights he can nullify buffs fairly on demand, allowing anyone to get tons of free power in those Buff heavy fights!
