MultiVersus Players Think Finn Is The New Taz

In fact, he's so overpowered that players are comparing him to Taz, a character who was recently nerfed into the ground as players would spam his tornado attack. There's no word from any MultiVersus devs about a potential nerf at the moment, but one will surely be considered if players keep complaining. As a Finn main myself, I think you all just need to be quiet and eat my backpack.
