Is Corvus Glaive good?
Corvus Glaive hits hard and fast at the start of a fight, guaranteeing crits through his glaive and staying immune to Coldsnap and Bleed while that immunity is active, which is exactly why
Iceman and Morningstar struggle against him. Paired with
Proxima Midnight's synergy he gets close to permanent True Strike, and his Signature lets him hang on at 1 percent health as long as he still has Glaive charges.
He falls apart against champions built to punish crits, and
Ebony Maw simply turns off his guaranteed crits altogether. B tier suits a champion who wins fast or not at all.
Pairs well with:
Proxima Midnight.
Strengths
- Near-permanent True Strike alongside
Proxima Midnight's synergy - Immune to Coldsnap and Bleed while his Glaive immunity holds
- Signature lets him survive at 1% health while he has charges
Weaknesses
- Anti-crit champions punish his guaranteed crits
Ebony Maw voids his crits and
Mister Sinister heals off them
Mephisto's Incinerate and
Doctor Voodoo's Poison still hit him through his immunity
Background
Corvus Glaive is Thanos’ right-hand man and the sly, cunning lieutenant of his army.
The only thing deadlier than this master strategist’s tactical mind is the halberd he yields to swiftly slice through his enemies.
