Players that are respawned by a teammate's pheonix can't use any abilities, passive or active, until they rejoin the server. And anyway, DM mod respawns everybody automatically.
Ultimates suck because you can max out all resistances pretty early , in the 25-30 lvl range. BUT chain lightening does have an alternate use then just doing damage.. even if it does 0 dmg, the animation of it hitting the enemy player is still visible, I think you can figure out the rest
