Is Venom good?
Venom brings a wide range of utility to his kit, which is enough to land him at B, but he leans heavily on his own Buffs to make that utility work. Losing those Buffs or running into an opponent immune to a specific effect he can't answer both cause real problems, since he doesn't carry many immunities of his own.
Strengths
- Wide range of utility across his kit
Weaknesses
- Leans heavily on his own Buffs to function
- Lacks many immunities of his own
Profile
Venom's full name is Eddie Brock. Venom is a male Symbiote.
Background
After Peter Parker rejected a sinister alien symbiote, the extra-terrestrial threat sought revenge by bonding with Eddie Brock, ex-photographer for the Daily Bugle and Peter’s longtime rival.
Fueled by their shared hatred of Spider-Man, Brock and the symbiote now use their immense strength and deadly abilities to gain revenge as the fearful Venom.
Venom is an adaptable Champion that can counter many of the most troublesome opponents in The Contest using different abilities and attacks.
Learning to use the right attacks in the right situations is the key to unlocking his full potential.
