I asked the same question earlier today, but didn't have the time to retype the entire thread from my phone, so I'll ask it again here.
Storyline sense suggests Black Death would make him even better and he will be better than the Three, End of Days, and every heel in history. Endgame also comes from a race of aliens that ages super slowly, so Endgame won't necessarily age for the foreseeable future. Even if he does get written out in the future, it may be similar to Chaos and Alpha Force going back to Dimension X, or Murdok, Godsend & Co. all going to Centra. Will the end of the Black Death threat lead to a mass exodus of talent?
Business sense suggests that he has been around forever and is due for a downgrade. He should be passing the torch and getting Shayne over and not be Hollywood Hogan and continue to dominate past his welcome. Just as Andre the Giant came back in the most hyped main event I've ever experienced to pass the torch to Hogan, one might think that this is Endgame's role in 2128. We have seen upgrades to characters such as the Master Race that were actually downgrades, despite maintaining a presence in storylines.
It could be the first crack in BD's armor, if Endgame, while still strong, seems to begin slowing upon joining the bad guys. Black Death 2128 won't be released until Friday, and by then we'll know the answer to this question. In the meantime, what do you all think?

I think his pin will get worse, but overall the BD possession has given everyone else an upgrade overall.

well I guess he is better after all, although End of Days is quickly disappearing like a flash in the pan.

Well as we see, BD has many cracks in it with or without Endgame.

So the question on my mind is after BD will Endgame stay heel? I hope so to me he is a better heel than face.

Although I do not have the paper copy yet (still waiting for the postman to wise up), I have the digital version and have to say that i am kinda on the fence. Endgame is better overall with his finishers (depending on how you roll) and his stats BUT the few times that I have dry ran his card against others from 2129- he once again 'came close' but couldn't win the big one...so, on that aspect his is the same for me.
Concerning his involvement in BD, The Three will keep him in line as I don't think he has what it takes to beat these guys and EOD is going to kill him.

The Three? Hardly a challenge for Endgame. And for me, he crushed End of Days in their first fight (and finally won my GWF title, after 12 years of failing)

I put Endgame in a 6 man round robin tournament (Overmaster, Endgame, Guardian, Harbinger, Monolith and Shayne), Endgame won the tournament 6-1 in the standings losing only to Monolith in the second round. Shayne came in second with a 5-1 standing. I haven't run Endgame up against Sur my GWF Champion yet, but winning the tournament makes him next in line for a shot.
