SkillS tier
Introduction
Okoye is a character in Marvel Contest of Champions. Okoye's role is Skill. Faction: Dora Milaje.
On our Marvel Contest of Champions tier list Okoye is S tier, 24th of the 297 characters ranked, from where 5 current tier lists put Okoye.
Is Okoye good?
Okoye builds her Combo Meter fast and gets a Combo Shield out of it, hits hard with Debuffs, lands Crits often, and has quick access to useful utility, all of which earns her the S. Once her Signature Ability is up (Shuri can unlock it early through their synergy), Deep Wounds boosts her Bleed and Shock, and once the opponent's health drops below hers, those Debuffs start dealing a doubled burst of damage to close the fight out fast.
The downside is she juggles a lot of Buffs and Debuffs at once and doesn't have much survivability if things go wrong.
Pairs well with: Shuri.
