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

Bio[]

Always fascinated with super humans, young petty thief Parker Robbins used his gains to help his family, including his ailing mother. When a burglary took an unexpected turn, Parker found himself in possession of a pair of mystical boots and cloak. Struggling to understand the supernatural items, he learned they granted him limited powers, including invisibility and the ability to walk on air. Dubbed "The Hood" by the police, Parker soon found himself forced down a darker path, using his newfound powers to start his own criminal empire to ensure the safety of his family.

    Recommended Masteries[]

    • Mystic Dispersion
      • The Hood’s Fate Seal on his Special 2 allows him to trigger Mystic Dispersion multiple times with a single ability. Combine it with Stagger for even more triggers. Once his Signature Ability has been unlocked and he gains Power Steal, he’ll be rolling in Power!
    • Stupify
      • The Stun at the end of the Hood’s Shock Debuff is quite short, and you have to almost be dashing in before the shock ends to successfully land a hit. Stupify nearly doubles the window to land that critical first hit of your combo.
    • Glass Cannon
      • The Hood’s Invisibility is great at prevent him from taking hits. Glass Cannon dovetails beautifully with this, allowing the Hood to take full advantage of the Attack bonus, while ignoring much of the penalty.

    Strengths and Weaknesses[]

    Strengths[]

    • Storm
      • Storm has a lot of damage available to her, a lot which is in her Special Attacks, which also have strong Stun effects attached to them. However, The Hood has the ability to simply avoid being hit with Invisibility, and once his Signature Ability is unlocked, he’s immune to the Stun effects, if he does get hit while his Invisibility is on cooldown. His staggers and Fate Seal also help with Storm's many Prowess buffs
    • Hyperion
      • One of the toughest parts of fighting Hyperion are his repeated Power Gains. Between his Stagger, his Fate Seal, and his Power Steal to avoid him getting to a Special 3, The Hood counters this very effectively, on top of the obvious class advantage.
    • Scarlet Witch (Classic)
      • Ah Scarlet Witch (Classic), you never really know what you’re going to get against her, unless of course she spends the entire fight Hexed, Fate Sealed, and Staggered. Fate Seal and Stagger to Nullify any Buffs Scarlet Witch (Classic) triggers, and the Ability Accuracy reduction from Hex Magic to lower the chance that Chaos Magic triggers at all.

    Weaknesses[]

    • Black Panther (Civil War)
      • Black Panther (Civil War) can be a tricky matchup for the Hood. All of Black Panther’s attack are contact attacks minimizing the effect of Invisibility. Also Black Panther’s ability to reflect Stuns, makes using the Hood’s Special 1 a risk, as while it may have been safe when the attack was triggered, there’s no way to un-trigger if it becomes clear the Stun will reflect.
    • Ant-Man
      • Ant-Man is immune to Buffs, making the Hood’s Stagger and Fate Seal abilities pretty underwhelming, combining this with being at a Class Advantage, and his Glancing and Fatigues to counter Critical Hits, makes Ant-Man a tough and slow fight.
    • Human Torch
      • The Human Torch can bypass Miss effects by raising his temperature. Also all of Hood's attacks are considered to be Energy by the Human Torch, allowing him to gain Smoulders and apply Incinerates. Avoid this matchup whenever possible
    • Rhino
      • Rhino’s an in your face Champion, pushing his opponent’s back against the edge of the arena. His chance to go Unblockable while dashing in makes the dash back and block trigger for Invisibility an iffy proposition halving the up-time on this powerful effect.
