Template

Gamora is a Cosmic Champion. Being a Cosmic Champion, she has a Class Bonus against Tech Champions, but is weak to Mystic Champions.

Bio[]

"The most dangerous woman in the galaxy" is a title hard to earn, and much harder to keep. But Gamora has brawled and battled her way across the cosmos enough times to make that title stick. She's stronger than you, faster than you, and tougher than anyone. She is the adopted daughter of Thanos, but fiercely loyal to her comrades in the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Mechanics[]

Gamora is the Queen of stacking Buffs. Stack up her Fury and Cruelty Buffs to constantly increase her damage over the course of a fight. The longer a fight is, the more powerful Gamora will become! Keep up as many Buffs up as you can and Gamora will be able to deal with Defender Miss, Auto-Block, and Evade abilities. Additionally, Gamora can harness the power of her Godslayer Strike, making her Special Attacks even more powerful. Make sure to time your Specials to use this ability as often as possible to really get the most out of Gamora!

Strengths and Weaknesses[]

Strengths[]

Buffs
- Gamora can float a ton of Buffs over the course of a fight, if Buffs are your aim Gamora is the one for you!
Miss Counter
- As Gamora’s Damage builds with her Buffs, she also gains the ability to counter any opponent’s Miss ability letting her play much safer into some tricky match-ups.

Weaknesses[]

Nullify
- Gamora is all Buffs all the time, and relies on them heavily in her kit. Running into an opponent that has the ability to Nullify away large amounts of Buffs will spell a big problem for her!
