See this is why I say Colossus is one of the Top 5 Champions in the Game, I like to think I'm a Slightly above average player Skill Wise but I still make mistakes and he made L.o.L a Breeze!
He took down every enemy on this path fairly easily except for Magik who I brought Blade for.

This one's ok, but now I have 2 waiting for someone worthy.
Mine's only Sig 69 (nice.) and I did just fine spamming Sp2s, once you get those 20 Armor Ups you are taking barely any Damage when you do get Clipped and you deal some Crazy Damage Especially when you Crit.
I don't use it at all till I have a Special Attack ready so I get the most Damage off those as possible with the Heavy Attack Fury, or you can just Spam Parry till they last less than a Second and get a bunch of Temporary Armor Ups. But I wouldn't do that until you have a few Armor Ups already, so you don't lose a lot of health.
Also 2 of the Revives I used on Colossus was because of Evade so if those hadn't happened I wouldn't have had to use Any Units. Lol
I used AA v magik though only took a couple revives could have been a solo but RNG was not helpful and for some reason i struggle getting and keeping neuros on her.
I spent 0 units.
i had to have more goes against Maestro than you did but in my defense the first 4 goes were with my synergy members just to test the fight out...
and then after that i never healed up, i only used 20% revives as i had them in my stash but had run out of potions so it was much more economical to fight him from only 20% and revive a few time instead of buying potions and healing to full.
COLOSSUS IS A SERIOUS WEAPON! esp love him with OR and Emma.
OML is a great option for shorter fights and i believe using same team but switching AA out for OML would make colossus and extremely viable legends run option. arguably better than Corvus.
Reminds me of that lonely Island SNL skit
let his sig take care of making permanent armors, the power gain from Emma Synergy means you get plenty of specials.
also i have done ROL comparisons and Colossus using only heavy is like 30-45 hits but takes 1min 45secs.
colossus playing more freestyle takes like 75 hits but is like 1min 15secs. His DPH is much lower not on on heavies but he can get 5 hit combos off much quicker in most scenarios, build to sp quicker due to more hits has more openings for combo v parry heavy and also after sp2 you wanna be real aggressive take advantage of the 20-30 stacks of armor the you get from the special to lay out as much damage as quick as possible.
Use heavy as much as possible but don't wast time finding and searching for heavies, just play as the fight comes if a combo is easier just go for it, speed and aggression win out for DPS with the metal man.
How do you think an unduped 6-star Colossus would fare using your strategy?
His sig is by no means needed and i would say yeah he will do fine but you will drastically notice the difference with and without dupe.
By mid way through LOL fights even a low sig Colossus will reach 20 permanent stacks of armor with sp2's pushing him to ~30 really ramping his damage/tankiness and power gain.
Without his dupe you would want to begin by using a lot of L1s early to build some permanent armors that way. once you have built a stack by doing that then start to spam sp2's.
once you have spammed a bunch of L1s and built up permanent armors his damage will be just the same, it will just take longer to ramp up.
So yeah certainly doable and still a viable option but would be slower and would need to adjust the fighting style to adjust for it.
Colossus's damage is vastly improved after his buff, certainly in long fights - probably not as much in quick fights, but ROL and LOL are good places for him.
I've been debating which to take up of him vs Domino, so tested them both against WS as 3* 3/30 Max Sig champs with no synergies.
In this long fight against a much stronger opponent, Colossus lasted a lot longer and managed to inflict 316,000 damage in 393 hits (averaging 800/hit) whilst Domino inflicted 280,000 damage in 336 hits (averaging 833/hit).
Now I'm sure Domino can do even more damage, particularly in shorter matches; but I was surprised how close it was. Given his immunities and sheer resilience, and that I'm heading into Act 6, I'm definitely going for Colossus at this point. He's earned that Awakening Gem!
But then, Domino would do more with Rulk and Massacre synergies.
Since this was a bit of a study for my own benefit, I wanted to keep it fair; since they aren't ordinarily going to get their synergy partners, if I rank them up.
there was one or two fights where i had no boost cus they expired and i forgot to reapply.
could easy be done by him with no boosts. just be marginally longer.
