6.4.5 Hydra Adaptoid

Hey folks,

I'm about to tackle this dude, for which I'm thinking of taking up my Stealth Spidey to r5, but not 100% sure as I don't use him often

What experiences have those that have tackled him had? Any helpful strategy ideas or other champs to consider?

Thanks a million

She Hulk makes the fight incredibly easy!

Parry and heavy to land the first Slow, then build him to his first bar of power. Thanks to Matador, you can dex his L1 and gain a bar of power.

Backdraft a few times, rinse and repeat until you get to 3 bars of power (shouldn’t take long with Matador). Throw your L3, and use the stun window to refresh your Slow. It’s long enough that you can do this all fight long despite Limber.

Keep repeating the above and it’s basically gg

He’ll be throwing a lot of specials, which means you’ll be building up your Furies very quickly - consequently the second half of the fight will go by much quicker than the first!

Stealthy can easily solo him. During exploration I soloed him with Claire and Aegon, easy solo.

With Claire what I did is I activate my hellfire phase and did nothing, he agins power automatically and when he throws power I gained one bar of power and then he again throwed sp1 I gained 2nd bar of power, and at 2nd bar of power I intercepted him with my SP2. Because of metador node I was gaining power so quickly and I took him down very quickly.

Same thing I did with Aegon but I stead did using sp2 I used sp3 with Aegon that provides a long stun and at that point I hit him during the stun.

Oooh to be honest I totally forgot about void, and he is normally my go to guy!

Thanks for the help and advice.
I found Thing to be an amazing option, with his ability to take out unstoppable after a special attack, and the damage cap he can take, means you don't have to play perfectly

Kind of funny you forgot about void yet he is your profile pic. Also capiw, spider she hulk, stealthy, sorcerer supreme work well. Pretty much any slow or nullify champ will work.

You mostly just need someone to handle unstoppable, stealthy can do it at rank 4, but he’s worth rank 5 anyway even if he doesn’t need it for that fight

I know the me about it, it goes to show, it's easy to get too wrapped up in best counters etc, you forget the obvious bits. Didn't use him in the end, Thing worked s treat
