Hints

  • Weaknesses
  • All
Strong Match-Ups added by admin 0 0
  • Electro
    • Bait out a few different attacks, place a few Concussions, and drive Electro’s Defensive Ability Accuracy down to allow for safer strikes against everyone's favorite walking thorns node.
  • Spider-Man (Classic)
    • With both Exploit Weakness, and Ability Accuracy reduction, Classic Spider-Man’s Spidey Sense won’t be as reliable as he’s used to, because who doesn’t need a little less Evade in their life?
  • Magik
    • Drive Magik’s ability accuracy into the ground as quickly as possible to minimize the number of Limbos she triggers over the course of the fight, and she shouldn’t be too tough to manage.
Weak Match-Ups added by admin 0 0
  • Cable
    • With class advantage, a Degen when you make him Bleed, and Special Attacks with enough hits that Taskmaster’s ability to avoid them is suspect at best, Cable can be a tough matchup.
  • Kingpin
    • If Taskmaster has his Signature Ability, every time he triggers Exploit Weakness (which he wants to do a lot) he risks just feeding Kingpin’s Rage! And his Black ISO gives him a chance to give Taskmaster a little tastes of his own Ability Accuracy shenanigans.
  • Rogue
    • With reduced Debuff Duration Rogue will be tricky to stack Concussions on, and she doesn’t care about Debuffing her Opponent, but she’ll gladly take the boost to her Lifesteal and Damage from having Class Advantage.

Abilities

Signature ability

Intuitive Pattern Recognition
Increase Concussion Debuff Durations by X second(s).
Each time Taskmaster successfully triggers Exploit Weakness it places a Concussion Debuff on his Opponent reducing their Ability Accuracy by X% for X seconds and resetting the Duration of any currently active Concussions caused by this ability.
If Taskmaster places X Concussions on his Opponent simultaneously, they convert into a Passive effect which reduces Ability Accuracy by X% for X seconds, counts as X Debuffs for Taskmaster's other Abilities, and removes the Exploit Weakness cooldown timer. While this effect is active, Taskmaster will not trigger additional Concussion Debuffs.

Abilities

Photographic Reflexes
Passive
Each Unique Attack your Opponent attempts decreases their Offensive Ability Accuracy by 10%, while increasing your Perfect Block Chance by the same amount.
Each Unique Attack you make decreases your Opponent’s Defensive Ability Accuracy by 10%
Being Struck by a Special Attack resets both of these abilities’ effects.
Exploit Weakness
Passive
Taskmaster spots a weakness in the last Attack his Opponent attempted, which can be exploited by striking his Opponent with that same attack within 40 seconds.
After Exploit Weakness is triggered or expires it goes on cooldown for 5 seconds.
Successfully exploiting a weakness instantly deals X Direct Damage.
An Attack that will trigger Exploit Weakness will not trigger Passive Evades or Auto-Block.
Learn the Foe
Passive
Each time a Debuff is placed on Taskmaster, all future Debuffs placed on him have their Potency reduced by 10%
If the Debuff Potency reduction reaches 100%, Taskmaster becomes Immune to Debuffs.
Armor Break
Armor Break breaks the Armor of Armored Champions, preventing Armor from preventing damage. Armor Break is an effective counter to Armored Champions.

Special Attack 3: Causes Armor Break lasting 10 seconds and reducing Armor by X per Buff triggered on the Opponent this fight. Max Damage after 10 Buffs.
Bleed
Bleed deals a fixed amount of damage over a certain time period. Bleed is an effective counter to Armored Champions.
Special Attack 1: Causes Bleed lasting 5 seconds and dealing X Damage, per Debuff triggered on the Opponent this fight. Max Damage after 10 Debuffs.
Special Attack 3: Causes Bleed lasting 5 seconds and dealing X Damage, per Debuff triggered on the Opponent this fight. Max Damage after 10 Debuffs.

Bio

Tony Masters was a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent exposed to an experimental variant of the Super-Soldier Serum, called the Mnemonic Primer. It grants him the ability to duplicate any movement he sees, but at a cost. The huge amount of information his brain records, causes it to overwrite his own memories, replacing what little remains of his original self. Now known as Taskmaster he offers his skills to the highest bidder as a mercenary and combat trainer.
