Is Falcon good?

Falcon punishes opponents who can't Evade and lands a bonus attack on hit, backed by a high crit chance, though anti-crit effects work against him. His Special 1 carries decent Bleed damage that Deep Wounds can stretch further, and since he barely needs anything outside his Special 3, Double Edge is a solid pick on him too.

Paired with Nick Fury and Deadpool he gets strong regeneration to go with the damage. A tier for a champion who does most of his work outside of Specials.

Pairs well with: Nick Fury; Deadpool.
