On defense he'll just look and act like generic Super Skrull.

All of them play differently and fill a different niche. I don't like the recent Strange and Thanos (plus Thor, Daken, Torch, etc), where the only difference is the max level you can get them to. That's two roster slots for the exact same thing, provided you have the capacity to cover them.

As a history lesson - 2* Torch came after 3*. Also, 2* Daken didn't have "Chemical Reaction" until well after 3* Daken debuted, they decided to change both characters a fair bit a few months later.

For example, most self healing characters are Wolverine, if these character powers were all in different characters, then you could have an entire team of self healers - Imagine having OML and Patch on the same team. Or having both deadpools on the same team. I'm not saying it would be unfair, but I understand why they keep certain powers within a character set.
