Is Spider-Punk good?
Spider-Punk's whole game runs on Intercepts and the Special 2 timing minigame: a well-timed counter-evade off a block earns him a fresh Counter-Attack Evade whenever he's struck, so mistimed intercepts can snowball into a lot of free defense. Intercepting also inflicts Physical Vulnerability that powers up the Ruptures from his Special 2, and Taunt plus Encore help him bait out more Special Attacks to work with.
Physical Resistance and Rupture immunity blunt his damage, and the whole kit demands tight timing, which is why he's B.

Counterculture Counter-Attack
PassiveWhen performing a Well-Timed Block against Basic Attacks, Spider-Punk has a 100% chance to Evade instead, inflicting a Stun Passive for 3 seconds. This Stun is removed when the Opponent is struck twice. This Evade then goes on cooldown for 16 seconds. While this cooldown is active, when Spider-Punk would be struck by a Light or Medium attack while Dashing forward, he has a 100% chance to Evade the hit, inflicting a Stun Passive for 2 seconds. As a Defender, this ability is always active. Inflicting a personal Physical Vulnerability Debuff shortens the active cooldown by 6 seconds.
Crowd Members
PassiveSpider-Punk gathers a crowd wherever he goes. As a Defender or while fighting in Battlegrounds or Duels, start with 150 Crowd Members. Otherwise, start with 0 Crowd Members. When defeating an Opponent, half of Spider-Punk’s Crowd Members stay with him for his next match. If Spider-Punk is defeated, he loses all Crowd Members. When either Champion Dodges a Special Attack or Punishes their Opponent’s Special Attack, Spider-Punk gains 10 Crowd Members for each Bar of Power spent on the Special Attack. Cooldown: 0.2 seconds. When Spider-Punk Evades after performing a Well-Timed Block, gain 30 Crowd Members. Knocking down Spider-Punk causes 15 Crowd Members to leave.
Crowd Effects
PassiveCrowd hype cranks the amps up to 11, increasing the potency of personal Ruptures by up to 182% based on Crowd Member count. Above 200 Crowd Members, when Spider-Punk activates a Special Attack he gains an Unstoppable Passive for 3 seconds, paused until the end of the Special Attack.
Heavy Attack
PassiveThe first hit refreshes all personal Physical Vulnerability Debuffs. The final hit inflicts a Taunt Debuff for 2 seconds and grants the Opponent no Power if they are above 1 Bar of Power.
Encore!!
Signature AbilityWhen the Opponent finishes a Special Attack, inflict an Encore Passive for the corresponding Special. While an Encore is active, the Opponent is 70% more likely to throw the same Special Attack. Max stacks: 3. Encore Passives are removed if the Opponent performs a Special Attack different than the active Encore. For each Encore Passive active, the Opponent’s Attack Rating during Special Attacks is reduced by . At tier 7: 12 - 24% Inflicting an Encore Passive while an Encore is already active has a 50 - 100% chance to inflict a personal Rupture Debuff. This is not affected by Ability Accuracy modification.

Blitzkrieg Banger
Special Attack 2The final 3 hits are guitar strum attacks that inflict a personal Rupture Debuff. These can be inflicted through Blocks that are not Well-Timed. As an Attacker, three Chords are generated. Swiping up or down while the Chords are active amplifies the hit, bringing in 10 Crowd Members. If all hits are amplified, inflict an additional Rupture.
