Suicides + UC Elektra

So, she degenerates half of champion's health in 12 seconds but doesn't allow him to get it back. Great. No problem. But for those that run suicides (like myself), that heal block means he is always losing health. As suicide users know, Elektra is (almost) impossible to parry if we have a debuff (bleed/poison). That means we have to intercept or bait heavy, which makes for a longer fight. And that heal block keeps ticking. Then everybody except science has his attack reduced by half, which makes for an even longer fight. Tick tack tick tack.
As a result, on the 3 times I get there I defeated her with my last champion (5* duped R4 Hulk) after she melted my other 4 (5* R4 Hawkeye, 6* R1 Hawkeye, 5* R4 Yondu and 5* R5 duped Blade) without landing a single hit. And no, I don't have a double immune 5*.
I am curious to know what other suicide lovers think of this boss and what was the strategy.

But at the same time, adjusting masteries is sometimes just a part of the game. If you're having difficulty completing the fight with suicides, consider altering your setup to clear the quest.
LOL, she's not good with suicides unless you put them after you have your souls
Also used iceman 4 stars r5 and on one fight Sentinel 5 stars R3.
I soloed all fights with one of the champs listed above.
Does Sentinel Degen? Are all Robots immune, or does the Node bypass it? I have him R3 and it never occurred to me to take him in. Lol.
He is inmune to bleed and poison. It's the nod that makes you degenerate 50% of your life in 12 seconds, other than that you cool, he is a fantastic champ and since I use suicides I always use him on block healing paths.
Ok so you still Degen. Thanks.
Electra is easy. I have suicides and my 6 star nebula smoked her with 40,000 shock damage on sp2 per tick.
I like using Suicides, I think the increase in damage compensates the recoil and other nuisances. Maybe one day I get fed up and change the masteries. But not gonna spend units doing it just for one fight.
Although I think unavoidable damage is just lazy design, lack of ideas or just plain milking the players, I don't complain. When I think the game as gone too far I will move to another game. Done so in the past.
I just wanted to know if other Suicide Lovers that don't have double immune champs struggled as much on that Elektra.
You know you can use 4* too right?
Us old timers remember AW 1.0 with thorns, starburst and actual degen nodes.. back when self healing champ options were limited to iron man, ultron, wolverine and switch. Ah the good old days.
It's certainly not a new trend. It's one they mostly went away from in 12.0 and have slowly reintroduced them. It's like boiling live seafood. Put it in first and then turn up the heat so they don't freak out versus when you drop them straight into boiling water.
You think this is bad? You should have seen what it was like 3 years ago. Star burst, thorns , degen every where! As was said, they moved away from it in 12.0. As soon as I saw Korg had thorns and they specifically mentioned the word thorns, I knew it would be back in full force at some point.
Full suicides increase attack by 60%. The downsides:
1. your champions start the fight bleeding (that expires in some seconds, think it's 20) and poison, that never expires. This, of course, can be averted with double immune champions.
2. 2. When you use SP1 or SP2 you lose 5% of your max health (recoil). Only SP3 doesn't make you lose health.
Wait, just to clarify, you’re not under the impression that robots are immune to degen, right @GroundedWisdom ? They’re not.
