Is The Destroyer good?
The Destroyer gains a Protection buff that cuts incoming damage whenever the opponent has active Buffs, and his Power Gain is strong enough to rush him to Special 3 with plenty to spare. He's immune to a lot of common effects and can still go 
Unstoppable despite being Slow immune, and being immune to Poison and Bleed means Liquid Courage and Double Edge cost him nothing while he still gets the Attack boost.
Non-Damaging Debuffs strip a Destruction Charge and can stall his Power Gain, Wither can flip that Power Gain into a Power Drain, and Grit can counter his Unstoppable, which puts him at B.
Strengths
- Protection buff cuts incoming damage while the opponent has active Buffs
- Extremely strong Power Gain that can rush him to Special 3 with power to spare
- Immune to Poison and Bleed, so masteries like Liquid Courage and Double Edge cost nothing
Weaknesses
- Non-Damaging Debuffs strip a Destruction Charge and can stall his Power Gain
- Wither can reverse his Power Gain into a Power Drain
- Grit can counter his Unstoppable
Profile
The Destroyer is a male construct.
Background
When the Celestials threatened humanity with judgment and possible execution, Odin and the other All-Fathers crafted a weapon to oppose the Celestials and protect their human worshippers.
Infusing a mysterious metal with the power of every All-Father, Odin built the mighty enchanted construct known as The Destroyer.
With strength and durability surpassing even the legendary metal Uru, The Destroyer is a terrifying weapon of mindless devastation.
Mechanics
The Destroyer's goal is to build enough Destruction Charges to activate its powerful Power Gain so it can quickly reach the Special 3.
Destruction Charges can be gained by activating the Special 1 Attack, intercepting, punishing Heavy and Special Attacks.
Once the Destroyer gains enough Charges it can inflict long lasting Degeneration with the Special 3.
