Black Bolt: The Most Powerful Character in MARVEL Strike Force?
MARVEL Strike Force has a number of characters for the players to choose from and some of them are extremely powerful. There are different types of characters like heroes, villains, mystics, legendaries, etc. Legendaries are some of the most important characters of the game. They drive the game once you unlock them and can take your team ahead in the game in a linear and fast manner. Legendary characters need certain teams and tier levels to unlock, meaning that you need to prove yourself in the game and reach a level before you can have a legendary as a part of your roster.
You can advance in the game with the help of heros and other characters as well, but keep in mind that other players are going to be chasing legendaries and if you are keen on playing PvP, sleeping on legendaries might not be a very good idea. The game brings in multiple game modes and PvP is one of them, but definitely not the only one. Game modes like Arena, Raids and Campaign need certain characters in the team and as you move further in the game, the toons in the enemy team just keep getting better and stronger. If you do not have a well-rounded team and roster, you can not move ahead in the game.
After playing the game on the BlueStacks emulator extensively, we realized that there is one character that brings an immense amount of value to your team as well as your roster. That character is Black Bolt. He is a legendary character and one of the most powerful and well-rounded characters in the game. He is the king of Inhuman. Black Bolt is the silent blaster of the Inhuman. The character is unlocked at 5 stars, which requires 310 shards.
He lives in the Attilan with the rest of the Inhumans. His voice can devastate mountains, so he usually remains silent. He has hero allegiance and cosmic jurisdiction. Adding to that, he comes from a Bio origin, his class is Blaster. All of this brings a lot to the table and adds layers to his character.
His abilities are something that need to be understood in detail:
Royal Strike
If the primary target has Slow abilities, he can flip 2 negative effects on himself. This ability has damaging as well as negative effects. He can also attack the primary target for 110% damage and clear 2 positive effects, and all of this at Level 1 of his ability. At Level 2 his other effects remain constant but the damage level increases to 135%.
However, at Level 3 the attacks get more effective. If the primary target has Slow abilities, he can flip 3 negative effects on himself. Apart from that, he can attack the primary target for 135% damage and clear 3 positive effects. At Level 4, he attacks the primary target for 160% damage along with clearing 3 positive effects from the team. At Level 5, he takes it a little further by keeping most things constant, and at the same time is able to clear 4 positive effects. When the ability reaches Level 6, Black Bolt can flip 4 negative effects on himself. He can also attack the primary target for 210% damage. Level 7 is the peak of this ability where he can attack the primary target for 250% damage and clear 5 positive effects.
Staggering Voice
When this ability is at its initial level, Black Bolt is able to attack the primary target for 130%. The damage keeps increasing with every level. At level 2, he is able to attack the primary target for 160% damage and apply Slow and when upgraded to Level 3, the damage that he does to the primary target increases to 190%, applying Slow remains constant at this level too.
At Level 4, things change a little; Black Bolt is capable of attacking the primary target for 190% damage while applying Slow and Offence Down. After this, the ability just becomes lethal with every level. At Level 5, Black Bolt is capable of attacking the primary target for 230% damage, apply Slow and 2 Offence Down. At Level 6, the damage remains constant but in addition to that, he can apply 2 Offence Down along with a bonus attack for 15% damage.
When the level of this ability is maxed out at Level 7, Black Bolt can attack the primary target for 270% damage, apply 2 Slow and has a bonus attack for 50% damage. The best part about this ability is that it is unavoidable and there no escaping this.
Sonic Scream
This is Black Bolt’s special ability where on Level 1, he is able to attack the primary target for 180% damage. When upgraded to Level 2, he can attack the primary target for 220% damage along with applying Heal Blocks. On reaching Level 3, the character can attack the primary target for 220% damage while applying Heal Block. He can also chain that to an adjacent target and attack for 120% damage. At Level 4, Black Bolt can attack the primary target for 220% damage, apply Heal Block while chaining the adjacent target and attacking them for 120% damage.
This ability also costs 5 energy instead of 6, saving him energy while attacking. At Level 5, the damage done to the primary target increases to 260% while applying 2 Heal Blocks. He can also chain an adjacent target and attack for 150% damage. This ability, too, costs 5 energy instead of 6. Things change a little when the ability reaches Level 6 and 7. At Level 6, he can attack the primary 290% damage while applying 2 Heal Blocks. He can also chain attack the adjacent target for 170% damage.
At Level 7, Black Bolt can attack the primary target for 310% damage while simultaneously applying 2 Heal Blocks. He can chain an adjacent target and attack them for 190% damage.
King of Attilan
This is the ultimate ability of Black Bolt where characters killed by him can not be revived. When an enemy drops below 25% health, he attacks the enemy for damage and eliminates them. When an enemy is summoned, he can apply Disrupted and clear 3 positive effects on the summoner.
He gains Resistance and his Inhuman allies gain Resistance. He also has the ability to gain 50% max health. This ability remains the same even at Level 7.
All of this makes Black Bolt an immensely strong character. This character can change the dynamic of any match that you are playing and can turn it in your favour.
