Bio

Erik Stevens’ ruthlessness and combat skill earned him the nickname “Killmonger” during his time as a black-ops soldier. While he has not set foot in Wakanda for a long time, he has returned with a plan that threatens to put Black Panther and all of Wakanda at risk. Using his charisma, combat prowess and his knowledge of Wakandan customs, Erik Killmonger is an imminent threat to all that T'Challa holds dear.

Hints

Strong Match-Ups 0 0
  • Hyperion, Mordo
    • Killmonger is able to take no damage from Special 3 Attacks if he has at least one Indestructible Charge. Activate his Special 2 Attack in order to get those charges and you won’t have to worry about Champions who have a very fast Power Gain effect like Hyperion or Mordo.
  • Spider-Man
    • Killmonger has True Strike and he can keep the ability active for a very long time when paired with Winter Soldier. This will make him a really great option against Champions that rely on Evade, such as Spider-Man.
  • Stun Immunity
    • Counterpunch charges can be very useful when going against a Champion that is benefiting from Stun Immunity. Killmonger is able to shrug off the impact of attacks when he is blocking, opening an attack window, which allows him to counter attack right away.
Weak Match-Ups 0 0
  • Medusa, King Groot, Iron Fist
    • Killmonger is extremely vulnerable to Armor Break abilities. When suffering from an Armor Break, his Vibranium Armor is turned off for the duration of the Armor Break effect.
  • Vision, Iceman
    • Killmonger doesn’t do really well against opponents that are Bleed Immune, since one of his primary tools to inflict damage is through his Bleed ability on Critical Hits and his Special 3 Attack.

Abilities

Signature ability

Reverberation
When Attacked
Vibranium Armor activates Reverberation for 8 seconds, dealing damage back to the opponent when Killmonger is Struck or Blocks an attack. Damage is based on Killmonger’s stored Power at the time of activation, inflicting up to X% of the incoming damage as Physical Damage. Reverberation has a 8 second cooldown time after expiring.
When both Reverberation and True Strike are active, Killmonger gains +X Attack Rating when hitting opponents.

Abilities

Critical Resistance
Passive
This Champion has additional Critical Resistance in its Base Attributes.
Armor
Armor prevents some, but not all, damage to a Champion. Many Champions have Armor as a passive ability. Direct Damage ignores all Armor.
Passive: At the start of the fight, Vibranium Armor provides X Armor Rating and Killmonger gains X% of his missing Power each time a Debuff is inflicted against him. Vibranium Armor is disabled if he is suffering from an Armor Break effect.
Bleed
Bleed deals a fixed amount of damage (usually a percentage of your Attack Rating) over a certain time period. Bleed is an effective counter to Armored Champions.
Critical Hits: Critical Hits lacerate opponents with a 80% chance, inflicting X Bleed damage over 1.5 seconds.
Special Attack 3: If Killmonger inflicted 15 or more Bleed Debuffs in this fight, he inflicts a Bleed stack for every Bleed he inflicted. Each Bleed deals X Direct Damage over 6 seconds. This effect can activate once a fight. Max: 50 Bleed stacks.
Indestructible
Special Attack 2: Vibranium Armor activates 3 Indestructible Charges. A charge is spent to ignore all the incoming damage from an attack. Max: 4 charges.
True Strike
True Strike allows a Champion to ignore the effects of Armor, Resistances, and Evasion.
All Attacks: Hitting opponents that are recovering from a Special Attack grants Killmonger True Strike for 16 seconds. This allows him to ignore Armor, Resistances, Auto Block and all Evade effects.

Special attacks

1: Merchant of Death

Killmonger stays true to his name, offering a 2-for-1 special on knives to the chest and a bonus leaping kick to the face.
Counterpunch Charges: Killmonger gains 2 Counterpunch Charges that last for 15 seconds. A charge is spent to shrug off the impact of enemy attacks for 0.75 seconds when Killmonger is blocking, allowing him to immediately counter-attack.

2: Leopard Strike

Leaping into the air for a height advantage, Killmonger lands with his ceremonial blades, striking deep wounds in his target.
Indestructible: Vibranium Armor activates 3 Indestructible Charges. A charge is spent to ignore all the incoming damage from an attack. Max: 4 charges.

3: Claws Out

Killmonger’s black-ops training becomes painfully realized as he uses his Vibranium claws to lacerate his Opponent.
Bleed: If Killmonger inflicted 15 or more Bleed Debuffs in this fight, he inflicts a Bleed stack for every Bleed he inflicted. Each Bleed deals X Direct Damage over 6 seconds. This effect can activate once a fight. Max: 50 Bleed stacks.
