Hmmm. I dunno your ideas arent bad but by your own admission the arena is not your forte so finding the sweet spot to balance character and power is still fuzzy. Instead of arguing with me work with me and we can bring your character into the arena.

I guess. 

I mostly base the power of my abilities off of existing powers seen in the characters already submitted to the MV, using them as a sort of template in which to gauge what I could and couldn't do with a power. Typically when it comes to power-scaling, I go for something in the middle, while my powers and abilities gravitate toward the mundane in overall functionality. Personally, I don't see the point in overly-flashy capabilities, since I put more faith into method and technique rather than equipment, if you know what I mean.

I normally run fighting techniques that favor either defensive-based characters or defensive/offensive characters, with a heavy focus on ranged power. I typically don't touch melee weapons with a ten-foot pole because I do best with firearms, tanks, anti-tank guns, x-ray lasers, and all of that jazz. 

With regards to the wormhole bit, I flipped a desk over that because I couldn't wrap my head over what terrible and awful things people were actually expecting me to do with it. I was under the impression people were scared I was going to turn the entire MV inside out or something. 

I have little problem with a nerf; most nerfs I get slapped with I fully agree on, since when I re-examine the idea, it does come off as wanky, broken or flat-out overpowered.

If you can't come up with something original, use a Super-Trope.Something SO tropey that it's entertaining.I mean, there are of course some tropes that are entertaining on their own. Like the Peasant Railgun.Or the Arrowhead of Total Destruction.

So, I looked up the Peasant Railgun.

I admit, I laughed. 

You know, I wonder if thousands of peasants, all tier 0 characters, could effectively pull this off with a pencil. 

That moment where 1,000s of people accelerating a writing tool to .5 % of c allows them to 1-shot a high-tier character.
