Best Of

Depends if you’re just going for completion and “skipping” this week or going for the objectives

I'm planning to skip one of the objectives actually.

I honestly thought about speedrunning with nimrod just for the completion if I couldn’t do the objectives. Haven’t had a chance to read the nodes yet but my roster is “kind-of” limited so I usually have to use a non-typical option for the objectives. I’ll come back to this and let you know. I’ve seen people saying hulkling for one of them. Maybe possibly scorp for the sinister six if you don’t have shocker? Idk

Nimrod probably not a great option, you take 30% max health damage if you remove his regens.

I just got her for the first time and have only played around w her a little bit. What’s the best strategy to use her to get the most out of her? Is her dupe necessary?

Block then heavy and special punish. She has this thing called spirit charges which increase her bleed potency by 15%. Heavy punishing and regular parries make the spirit charges expire faster, the more spirit charges you have the more potent your bleed becomes. You'd more than likely want to heavy and special punish only to pause your bleeds and stack more so they can tick all at once that way makes her damage sky rocket. You'll notice the damage when the health is 500k+. She's not a BG champion.

Also the heavy and special punishing pauses your bleeds only when you counter with your own heavy attack, luckily she has the best heavy attack range in the entire game.
If you regular punish with your mediums, you'll only shorten the timer but your bleeds will not be paused.

Go watch Negase, BmcG, or @MCOCHazza videos on her. You'll understand everything she's very good for alliance war against champs you wouldn't think she'd be good against
Nick and karate Mike they did her WAYYY too dirty(she was new tho but still).

You're joking right? She is for sure a BGs champion. I use her all the time on attack and defence she is perfectly fine.

What kind of threats she can take? Can she take photon?

I believe she has special abilities against #gamma champs, so can she take maestro?

She can take out photon(needs to be awakened). Red skull, her heavy range can easily reach red skull by just whiffing a light then throwing the heavy, one of the hidden red skull counters, just only throw heavies and he melts.
She can take Sasquatch, she has grit which works for his enraged and he's gamma as well so more bleed potency also her heavy reach can easily counter Sasquatch heavy. Heavy reach again can take spot.
She cannot take maestro his glancing will prevent her bleeds.

She also does not need special attacks, she's one of the few champs in the game which do not need special attacks to get into their damage. I personally don't use my special 1 or 2 when I'm playing her unless I'm going for the utility they both offer. I just block hits, heavy punish and go to the sp3 to Regen all the block damage I took. Since her special attacks are long and the bleeds aren't paused it's a waste as you want as much uptime on your bleeds as possible. You only want to throw special attacks when the champion is bleed immune so her specials do good damage with the guaranteed crits.

Also she has a block ability that caps the opponents attack rating at what they started the fight with so she can block a lot of hits and heavy punish
