Passive
At the start of the match, a random opponent is selected as the Archenemy, and a random teammate as the Parental Figure. Everyone, except the Archenemy, deals 50% less damage to Homelander. When Homelander defeats an opponent, he gains one stack of Dominance, or two stacks for defeating the Archenemy. Each stack grants 25% Attack boost.
While both the Parental Figure and Homelander are alive and one of them is active, they gain Bonding effects over time. Each Bonding gives 1% Lethal chance boost for Special Attack 2, up to a maximum of 33 stacks. If Parental Figure with the maximum Bonding is defeated, Homelander breaks a blind revenge and deals extreme damage to the active opponent.
Team Passive
Role
Homelander develops offense through eliminations and a sustained bond with a selected teammate. Identify the randomly assigned Archenemy and Parental Figure before choosing who should face each exchange.
Strengths
Most opponents deal reduced damage to him, while eliminating the Archenemy gives extra Dominance buildup. The Parental Figure also gains a useful support package while the pair develops Bonding.
Weaknesses
The Archenemy bypasses his stated damage-reduction advantage. Bonding requires both characters alive and one active, so the final revenge condition is a long setup rather than immediate insurance.
Best teams
Bring teammates that remain useful if randomly chosen as the Parental Figure. Preserve that fighter to develop the bond instead of sacrificing them merely to chase the fully stacked revenge event.
Where to use
He suits multi-enemy fights with enough time to build Bonding and secure eliminations. Reassign your active matchup when the Archenemy enters instead of assuming uniform protection.
