An r3 sabre would be a monster, i have just an r1 6 star and he can take out ROL healthpools in 50 ish hits, i had two mutants to choose from for r2 havok and ST and i went with havok but as of now ST is next up to get the r2 nod, unless i pull a domino in the next few months but that prob wont happen. With omega and KM hes a really amazing champ, i use ST with my sig200 omega so thats a big part of him going to r2 for me, finally got a 5 star KM and am hoping the new variant comes soon and maybe i can get an r5 skill gem for him or at least an r4 skill, im a huge fan of that trinity though.

6* my bad

Honestly I would go with CapIW but I'm not qualified at all to make any decisions. Sabretooth is pretty good but not R3 good

I would wait. Sabretooth is a beast but idk if he’s worth those rare resources yet.

If you have Killmonger, then I'd say yes, he gets additional benefits from Omega Red as well such as inflicting bleed on basic attacks. Sabretooth by himself is a beast but with Killmonger he's a monster. Since the stun from a parry is considered a debuff the KM synergy alone allows:

• Masochism - completely shuts it down
  
• Astral Evade - shuts it down as long as you hit .7s after stun
  
• Ice armor from reforming - shuts it down after it is broken
  
• Cable's degen on bleed - completely shuts it down (seems to be bugged; occasionally applies degen)
  
• Reflect stun - shuts it down
  
• Autoblock - has to be timed properly in order to shut it down; does not keep autoblock from happening on consecutive hits
  
• LC's indestructible - shuts it down during the .7s of a stun which means you'll score damage during indestructible
  
• Crossbones' fury conversion - completely shuts it down
  
• King Groot's shrug off - changes shrug off to .7s; becomes irrelevant with maxed parry & stupefy; if parried on the last fury, prevents regen
  
• Groot's shrug off - changes shrug off to .7s; becomes irrelevant if you have maxed parry & stupefy
  
• Hood's invisibility - works like LC's indestructible
  
• Glancing - any hit after a stun will not be glancing as well as a bleed; this becomes more powerful when combined with Omega Red's synergy
  
• Any buff on hit (fury, armor up, regen, etc.) - this is true for any hit after stun or bleed
  
• Doctor Strange's defense buff - for the .7s of the debuff, it ignores the armor up
  
• AV's tenacity - completely shuts it down
  
• KP's rage - completely shuts it down
  
• Electro's thorns - the thorns will not activate during the .7s of a debuff; Omega Red's synergy amplifies this
  
• Hela's indestructible - simply stun & hit or bleed her to immediately kill during indestructible
  
• Limbo on meter gain - this is hard to time, but if the .7s is active during meter gain, it will not activate limbo
  
• Starky's evade special - stun, medium then special to shut it down
  
• Subtlety - completely shuts it down
  
• Rhino Armor - it behaves the same as against DS' armor up
  
• MODOK's shield - it does not remove shield but prevents it during the .7s of a stun; he cannot shield during specials since they bleed; Omega Red's synergy almost prevent shield completely
  
• Morningstar's bleed on hit - it will not activate during the .7s of a stun
  
• Biohazard node - stops the bleed on hit if there's a debuff; use with OR synergy to maximize
  
• Mephisto's regen - if a debuff is applied when his health drops below 30%
  
• Mephisto's aura - prevents it from activating during a debuff on hit
  
• Korg's shrug off - completely shuts it down
  
• Korg's thorns - bypasses them during stun
  
• Safeguard node - bypasses during debuffs
  
• Spiked armor node - bypasses during debuffs
  

I'm sure I'm missing some others but, he's worth it as a bird in the hand is better than two in the bush

Does not affect (tested):
Emma's diamond form
Korg's damage reduction
Thor Rag's power gain
Jugg's stagger on parry
Buffet node

Untested:
Goldpool's regen
Magneto's (both) damage reduction
Gwenpool's damage reduction
Ghost's phase
