Hey everyone, just awakened my 5* Psylocke, and I’m curious to hear from people who have her at 4/55 (or higher) how they feel about her. What areas do you use her in (questing, AW, AQ)?
Thanks in advance!

Shes super fun and that's why I ranked her. I there are definitely better champs, and better mutant champs for sure.
I use her in AW (when I can use a power start boost) on AON nodes:
I use her a lot in quest where parry is ok, you can lock them down and just hammer away. I like her on bane because her special 1 is almost always on demand, and it last a long time so I rarely get the degen handed to me.
Shes REALLY good against power start nodes, bait special and then they are locked immediately:
There are a lot more videos of her on my twitter feed, and I have a writeup on her on my site as well:

Its well known that shes one of my favorites, and I like the exclusivity being one of the only ones with her at rank 5 (maybe the only one?). So uh... don't rank her she sucks.
Even if she power locks the opponent, when she parries or blocks an attack, the opponent gains power—the power lock works against power gained from Psylocke dealing damage, but not against the opponent gaining power from hitting a block.
That’s important to remember.

P.S. Thanks to @mutamatt for his detailed post and hard work for the community.
THAT’S what a community is. Thanks dude, that was a great post.
yeah anyone that has a passive power gain will slip out of the power lock, that means MD, Kinetic Reactor and opponents like Mordo or Hype.
In general her power gain is slower than normal, so she really benefits from the double power gain synergy with AA, which helps him a lot too and hes no slouch.
Her value is much higher against opponents who's specials can be countered by a heavy attack too, that way you don't have to rely on parry for the happy ending.
