Marvel Contest of Champions Wiki

"I hope you can trust me, Summoner. I understand these temporal... antics... can be a bit odd. I feel like most of us have had to deal with them at one time or another. But I assure you, I am with you to the end of this. There is a less destructive solution to Magneto's problem, he just needs to see it."
—Magneto (House of X)[src]

Magneto (House of X) is a Mutant Champion. Being a Mutant Champion, he has a Class Bonus against Skill Champions, but is weak to Tech Champions.

Bio[]

The Master of Magnetism has embraced a self-proclaimed role of detective, judge, jury, and executioner against mutants. One of the greatest Marvel anti-heroes ever, Magneto exacts his own form of mutant justice, by any means necessary.

Mechanics[]

Unlike Classic Magneto, this fresh version of Magneto (House of X) will be ready to fight alongside any #Metal and #Hero Champions and give them some serious stat boosts. He’s also no slouch on damage himself. Combine tons of Prowess with Armor Break, Bleed, and Degeneration.

#Metal Tagged Champions[]

Magneto is far more effective against these Champions.
