Do you think it’s better to rank up champions you love to play, or champs that are “God tier”?

I was wondering what the community thought. People usually rank up champions based on how good they are in the game (Blade, Domino, Sparky) and not how much they love to play them. I personally think that blade is so boring to use and though he may be good, I’ll probably never take him up if I pull him as a 5*. Don’t get me wrong, some champs like void and Sparky are fun to play and really good, but I would r5 hood, mordo, or sentry because I love their animations and love to play them. I was wondering what everyone thought. There are people who r5 kamala khan and spider Gwen (there is some awesome KK gameplay on YouTube as a 5/65) I would recommend you go check it out. My alliance mate is even thinking about taking colossus to r5 as a 5*(I personally find him boring to play, but I guess it’s just his preference).

My 5* Rank 5 Should Hopefully be Carnage
I don't care About God tire or not
Ranking "god tier" champs will allow you to complete harder content which will allow you to rank up whoever you want. If you rank up trash then get stuck on content then you can't rank anyone up.
Always better to rank up better champs first. At least rank up champs you need or that will serve some purpose on your roster.
God tier gets thrown around and defined a lot by a lot of different people. There are the obvious ones like blade, sparky, corvus, etc. But there are some middle of the road, better tiers that can help you while not being the best. I've ranked a few because me liking them pushes them over the edge of "should I or shouldn't I"
It also depends what rank we're talking about. 4*? rank away. and depending where you're at in the game, even r4 5*.
Its BETTER (in most people's opinion) to rank more useful champions, to then get resources to rank who you want. But thats part of the game. Your freedom to choose who to rank.
Disclaimer: If you r5 your 5* colossus, then claim UC EQ is too difficult and Kabam needs to nerf it, I don't have a lot of sympathy for you.
Do what i do, rank up god tier champs and then make them your favourite champs to play with.
Also, ppl who r5 their spider gwen feel awesome about it. The good thing about her is that SP1 hits real hard.
We have someone in our alliance who will r5 their spidergwen, if they pull one before they can 5/65 sparky, she's that good.
If I ever get a 5 or 6 star Rulk, I'm taking him up asap. I love the character, and I love how he plays.
100% this. I am now ranking whoever I want because I have to r4 SL to clear my hardest content. Although there are definitely God tier out there that I also happen to love playing with. Omega red is a great example
I just couldn't get used to his style and taking a lot of block damage. Evading that much would get me clipped all the time. I hesitated so much on r4 him. Now he's my go-to for a lot.
Tier lists are made and most are generally accepted. Just because you don't like them at the time doesn't mean its not worth it or won't help you. It depends how you get enjoyment from this game. Majority of my enjoyment is completing difficult content and competing in AW. So majority of my rank ups are with that in mind. If playing with certain characters makes you enjoy the game, rank who you want.
Disclaimer: Some champions are significantly better than others. If you rank a not-so-good champion, you might not have an answer for a certain month's EQ.
Having a highly ranked champ you are never going to use doesn't do you much good.
If your priority is mainly about your own enjoyment, you can have the luxury of taking your favourites.
Either way, the choice isn't necessarily yours - you can only play with the champions you have; not the ones you want.
I’m quite lucky in that my favourite character atm is CapIW, so I didn’t have this issue when I pulled his 5* and he went straight to R5
But., but venom is God tier.
Me. There’s a few champs considered god tier that I just don’t enjoy playing. Namely Corvus and Magik.

For 5* champs, I will take them all to at least R2 for arenas. I will R3 the champs I think are fun, but will only R4+ the champs that are really good or fulfill a utility I need (Blade, Voodoo, Magik, & Hela).
I basically stopped ranking 4* champs unless they are god tier. With 20+ at R4 and an additional 20+ at R5, I don't really need to rank any more since they use up valuable resources for ranking 5*.
I will 4/40 any new 3* champ I get and will rampage in arenas with those because it's cheap and fun.
If I want to play with fun champs, I use my 3* in arena or in Heroic difficulty EQ. If I want to get through hard content, I'll go with the best champ for the job (that I have).
I have a few God Tier champs Maxed out, but believe me - once I get a 4 or 5* Ronan or Sentry I will be maxing them out ASAP.
I also brought up my GP unduped since I love her playstyle. It's face paced if you want to keep up the Armor Break from the L3.
I'm planning on taking Luke Cage to 4/55 once I pull him, again because he's a great champ and he's one of my favourites.
Always rank up what you want, not what your alliance/tier lists say.
