This has to be one of the coolest people to be created in marvel. He was a simple guy diagnosed with cancer and Weapon X told him they could cure him. From this process he gained the ability to regenerate any lost body parts or cells. And become one of the deadlies assassins on the planet. Probally next to Sabretooth. Since then his regeneration was cut down to a healing factor. But he is still one of the best people in marvel with a gun or sword, and he always has a grenade for anyone. Good old Wade Wilson.

powers:

speed: stealth for 1st 4 clicks an dleap and climb for the rest

attack: energy explosion for the 1st 2 and last 2 click and blade/claws/fangs for the rest

defense: toughness for 1st 4 clicks and regen for the last 4

attack: Ranged combat expert for the 1st 2 clicks close combat expert for the next 2, perplex for the 2 after that and outwit on his last 2.

If you've ever seen him in the comics exspecialy his mini series comics he has all these poweres and a couple more of bags full 'o tricks to boot. What do you all think about this?

A little constructive criticism...

The values look good, for the most part, but the powers are way off in places. Deadpool really relied on that teleporter, and I dont think Leap/Climb works for him. I'd start him off with a few clicks of Phasing, then a couple of Stealth.

I think the attack values are a little low, but the powers look alright. Maybe one less click of B/C/F, replaced with one more click of Energy Explosion.

Defense looks good, but the four clicks of Regeneration is a little excessive. Two or three clicks should do it, especially since they lessened his healing abilities in his ongoing series.

The attack values are too high. The way you have him now, he can deliver a ranged attack of three damage to a character with Invulnerability, and he can knock down walls with his bare hands. I'd keep the powers as they are, lower his starting damage to two, and bring him down to one for the last few clicks. Perplex is good, but I'm not sure about Outwit.

But other than those few minor concerns, looks great!

Yeah, I'd have to agree with the phasing rather than the L/C

why perplex... i think outwit maybe for one click... but not perplex... he isn't a leader, and imo he shouldn't be able to change stat lines.

Well mainly because of his excesive wit and ability to get out of just about everything. He's beyond normal standards with thinking quick and confusing his opponets. That's why he should have outwit and perplex

Deadpool doesn't need toughness. He's not the sort that can take a hit like that. The idea is that even though he takes the hit dead on, he keeps coming. To that end, he should have at least ten total clicks, the last five of which with regen, but with the last three or so being very weak.

And yes, perplex totally fits the character, for the same reason it fits Harley.

The Problem With All Of Your Stats For Dead Pool Is The Fact That Your Making Him Way Better Then He Would Normally Be. You Have To Remember You Have To Give Him Stats That Would Be Proportionate To Those Of Other Characters That Are Already In The Game. If They Went By The Comics Captian America Would Be Tonz Better And Spider Man Would Have Super Senses.

ya, ok, i see perplex now, i just had a different idea of what it was... i do not think that deadpool could take wolverine hands down though, he just couldn't... so maybe they should take his states, and kind of put it inline with what his peers would have, something on equal footing...

Deadpool could defeat wolverine but i'd say it's about 50/50 just like a fight between any two of the former(or current) weapon X subjects

I think that is a very good representation of deadpool from the comics, he is fast hits hard and near immpssabble to take out. I think he does deserve regen for half of his life because his regen in the comics starts up as soon as he gets hit so why not show that in the game. Sabertooth and wolvie have it too, and deadpools regen is equal to thiers.

His healing factor is (at least in his rookie and vet versions) better than Wolverine's or Sabertooth's. Remember, he's survived being almost completely obliterated, growing back just from his HAND which survived the attack. He's also (presumably) survived a point blank bomb blast that nuked a German castle.

Technically, Deadpool is impossible to kill, so long as Thanos lives. ;)
