Suicides and Cavalier Difficulty
Prior to 2019 I had been on the fence about switching to Suicides. I had plenty of champs that worked with it, most notably CG, but was successful without all the extra damage. I was able to slice and dice my way through most content. Then Omega Red drops in my lap. Instantly taken to rank 5, and with a nice mutant gem, the switch became a no brainer. For months on end, I cherished the insane damage I've been able to put out. When little to no damage was done to my Suicide friendly champs, I laughed at how awesome it was. Even my champs that would suffer (HT, CAIW, Starky and Void) proved to be strong to be stifled by a little recoil and poison damage.
Low and behold, the introduction of Cavalier difficulty and the health pools associated with them, it's left me in a rather unsure position. What was once a fairly rewarding health loss has become a struggle to even persevere through. Sure, Omega red will thrive. But even CG, with the health allotted takes about 2 cycles to get a champ down. The list goes on.
TLDR: What I'm asking is, are the mastery points, and units still worth it with such a low ROI in the more difficult content? This is less of a discussion about suicides in general and more about whether or not those who have been using it are jumping off the fence.
