Considering options for my first r5 5*, opinions?

I haven't completed any variant or act 6 content. Uncollected monthly exploration is manageable for me. I've completed but not explored act 5.

I do not have any 5* awakening gems right now.

Thanks for your opinions!

Duped Hyperion

Interesting mix. I have to make the same choice soon, who shall be my first r5 5*
I am leaning towards Hyperion when it comes to my own choice.
Besides Hyperion I have completely different choices compared to yours. But he's such a strong champ he's been game changing for me, without any synergies.

Duped Hyperion

It’s him or quake, and if you aren’t experienced with quake then it’s hype, if you learn quake then she’s an option though

Unduped Thing

As far as I know, thing might be the best here; immune and great damage, sometimes is really useful champion (but he needs to be duped for Alliance War - defence).
Hyperion(duped) is also good but don't think that it's the best decision (imho)

Quake is a very useful champion but as you wrote, that you aren't experienced at playing her (just pulled), it might be better to test her and understand how to fight before ranking her up (sometimes it just might be not your game style or something like that)

Namor needs high signature level but is useless in some cases

Stark Spidey is a great champion (can evade unblockable special attacks) and deals great damage, so, might be useful.

So, Thing may be the best solution.

Thanks for the input

I think so far Hype and Thing are my frontrunners, although I do enjoy playing both ClaireV and Namor.
