Superman Regime used to be one of the deadliest characters to fight against, due to his passive and his unblockable second special, Heat Vision. However, after an update, Heat Vision's damage is halved, which makes it almost entirely pointless: while unblockable, it would only do the equivalent damage of a normal blocked special.
Strategy[]
| Basic combo | Damage pattern (% of damage stat) | Total (including Combo Ender) |
|---|---|---|
| Light (Combo Ender) | 2% - 2% - 2% - (3%) | 9% |
| Heavy | 4% - 4% - 4% | 12% |
Superman Regime's passive grants him 50% damage boost.
Superman Regime's 2nd special is UNBLOCKABLE.
Regime Superman has two viable roles in a fight: tank and tag-in.
Let's start with the most obvious. Although it has since been overshadowed by greater cards, Superman's health stat is not to be coughed at. In addition, he packs a bit more of a punch than his goody-two-shoes counterpart. When choosing gear for Superman, remember that you want to capitalize on his high health and his useful Special 1. Some good choices are Darkseid's Omega Battleplate and Batman's Silicon Carbine Batsuit. While Supes' signature gear can be useful, it's best used on other incarnations.
A more surprising facet of Superman's gameplay is that he can actually be a decent tag-in character. This relies on his ability to chain his heavy combo to his Flying Punch, resulting in an unblockable special if performed correctly. Pair Superman with gear that gives his Special 1 utility. While there are many good gear choices for this play style, it's best to use character gear that corresponds to other s1-reliant cards, such as Joker and Harley Quinn. If geared up appropriately, Superman can stall quite effectively or make for some great setups.
Overall, Superman Regime might not make for a heavy hitter, but he's great for long fights. Make sure he's in the company of great cards, and be sure to use his Special 1 as often as you can. Don't rely on his percentage-based ability, just keep calm and remind your opponents exactly who's in charge.
Interactions[]
Please note that battles are highly situational: this section only mentions cards that have mechanics that, for any reason, are particularly effective with/against, or particularly ineffective against Superman. Having a card that "counters" Superman does not mean it is always a good choice.
Good With[]
- Batman/Prime: He can boost Superman/Regime's damage stat making his unblockable Heat Vision deal even more damage especially when he's at low health.
- Harley Quinn/Animated: She too can boost Superman/Regime's damage stat as well as power generation, allowing Superman to perform his unblockable Heat Vision more frequently.
- Wonder Woman/New 52: Her specials give him power.
- Shazam/New 52: Superman will receive less damage.
- Superman/New 52: He helps trigger damage mitigation due to being Justice League character.
- Demon Blade: While insignificant compared to other gears, an unblocked Heat Vision now has a chance to Crit.
Good Against[]
- Raven/Prime: His one-hit special 1 and 2 can knock her out at low health. Raven's health swaps also trigger his passive.
- The Joker/Insurgency: His death damage can trigger Superman's passive, allowing him to inflict increased damage on Joker's teammates.
- Static/Prime: Superman's unblockable SP2 and SP1 that can be chained from heavy combo can prevent Static from gaining power from blocking his specials.
Countered By[]
- Superman/Blackest Night: His immunity to unblockable attacks render Superman’s SP2 useless.
- Batman/Batman Ninja: His damage reduction can counter Superman's damage boost.
- Shazam/New 52: His damage reduction for Justice League characters helps counter Superman's damage boost.
