Blade to R5

Rougeknight87

So bear with me as I know how much blade users love this dude but I’ve been waiting for a skill champ that’s worthy ever since I pulsed a 4-5 skill gem from July 4th deals. In my mind the 3 most worthy are Aegon, fury and blade. Lucked out with a basic today and finally pulled the daywalker! I have 2 generic AG’s so can awaken and R5 him promptly but for some reason I’m a little hesistant.
Still have 6.1 to explore and variant 1 also. Have no real plans to hit 6.2 yet. Also don’t have GR at 5* but have an R4 sparky.
Should I take him up?
Or should I wait for Aegon/fury not knowing when I’ll pull one?
Would love some advice!

I'd be interested to see what others say as well.. for me I have Nick Fury and Cap Marvel, so I've taken Nick Fury R4 without even thinking about Blade which I do have unduped.

Right now I think Blade's old news, but.. yeah.. convince me otherwise!!!

Blade was my first maxed out champion, have never come to regret it and I never use the synergies. Not sure about awakening though, I have him awakened and that ability is great for sure but I love him mostly for his nice damage.

I pulled a Blade with the original Featured crystals awakened & took him to 5/65 as my 2nd hes still best I use him in every AQ map 5/6 & often in AW still (gold 1/platinum 4) he has the most reliable regen in the game, can handle all or nothing as long as they can bleed has crazy debuff shrug off at full power & solid power gain/bleed damage all this without synergies.still one of the most versatile champs in the game.
