Five Questions for those who have experience

I feel like I’m never going to pull Corvus or Ghost. However, this game is not all about pulling the best champs and I’m sitting on a gold mine and a lot of resources.
And so, it’s time to start ranking up the champs I have. Please respond if you have experience with these champs.
My goals - complete Act 6, explore Variants 5 and 1, explore LoL.
In today’s meta:
1. Is 5 Star Starlord still worth Rank 5? I have Aegon and Star-lord’s synergy could help me with a Labyrinth exploration run. I presume he doesn’t really have much use outside of that content but I’d like to hear community thoughts. I surprisingly use Aegon much more frequently than most people do.
2. Are 5 Star She-Hulk/Symbiote Supreme worth Rank 5? I’m about to get to 6.2.6 The Champion and I have just some general knowledge about the fight. From what I can gather, both of these champs are worthwhile for the fight but is one better than the other? Honestly, I don’t really like playing with either (SS seems so dependent on buffed opponents and bleed vulnerable opponents; She-Hulk is so frustrating with her fury timer - particularly with smaller opponents). If someone has experience showing that these champs are actually useful for more quest content I’d love to hear it. I’m leaning more towards SS because of Variant 5.
3. Is Omega Red worth awakening and maxing sig stones without suicides? I could take him to Rank 5, awaken him, and max sig him... but I don’t run suicides. Would he still actually be useful? Corvus, for example, is awesome with suicides but he’s still awesome without them.
4. Is Blade still worth Rank 5 without GR synergy? I can’t hold onto hope after 3 years that I’ll pull Ghost Rider. And now that my roster has progressed I’m wondering if I should explore another skill champ like Elsa. Thoughts about Blade and Elsa are appreciated.
5. Am I crazy to not take Red Magento to Rank 5? I’m just not sold on his play style and I feel like I’d regret using my gem. Let me know whether that Parry/Heavy play style would really work in 6.3/6.4 and Variant 1.

2) She hulk/Sym are worth r5 nonethless. They have uses outside of the champion fight as well.
3) debatable. I dont run suicides and still find omega red useful, but if you dont have many max sig champs he may not be worth the stones ( over, say, capiw).
4)Blade still worth it imo. My every map6 run for years has had this dude. Saves me so many damn items.
5)You are crazy. He is awesome. Negates 1/3rd of the champs in game, and destroys in war. Rank this metalhead up.
Question 2= I am not very qualified for this one but Sym supreme is the better choice for that fight if I had to choose
Question 3= Yes, yes, YES! Omega may be ridiculous with suicides but at max sig he is insane even without suicides
Question 4= I don't have either of those champs so I am gonna skip this, but I prefer non synergy dependent champs like Elsa
Question 5= There are better mutants for the gem, like sig 200 omega red. I don't like mag's playstyle either and will not be taking him up.
If I missed anything, it is because I don't have the experience for it or the champ in question at a high enough level
2. SS is a monster and will solo champion easy and is great in Abyss easy path. She hulk is ok
3. Yes! Omega is still worth it. I have a r3 6* and beat war attack champ in current Meta
4. Blade is a waste of resources. I have r3 6* Elsa and she is much better champ, or if lucky and have Hit Moneky he is also better
5. Mags is worth r5.. I have one and he destroys some much content with little effort. Anything metal/robot has no chance and will help you beat Act 6
Hope it helps
2. I would and have R5 Symbiote Supreme and kept She hulk at R4. Symbiote Supreme is great, once you get to an Sp3 (fire with 100 blessings), you'll see some insane damage. Also gives you protection too. She hulk is also good but I prefer SS better. The question you gotta ask yourself is, who do you like playing more / who you are better with? Is MD unlocked?
3. Omega has his uses even without suicides. I'm not a crazy fan of him without it, but he owns the biohazard path and will help you through further on.
4. Blade is meh for me but id still take him to R4 but not beyond that but that is just me. Don't get me wrong he is still a good champ, just not my cup of tea
5. Red Mags? easily worth the R5. Counters a lot of champions. You dont have to parry and heavy. you can heavy intercept. He really has some crazy damage for him to be ignored. Not to mention crit synergy team!
Tech champs I would personally rank up before Starlord: Ghost, Guillotine 2099, Stark Spidey, Warlock. I might even rank Sentinel before Starlord just because of his usefulness in things like Variants and his overall tankiness and immunities. In fact, I might even rank Hulkbuster before Starlord today. That's too many champs ahead of him to burn rank 5 on him, even if I had none of them at the time. Both are probably worth it, but I would rank SS over SH. SS has I think broader range of strong match ups. If you really like SH and are really good at building her up, I can't argue with ranking up SH. But SS just plain destroys 90% of all the champs in the game foolish enough to bring buffs to a SS fight. In my opinion, yes. He's way better with suicides, no question. But he's still strong enough to justify rank 5. I have a rank 5, and I've played him both ways, with and without suicides. When I have suicides he's awesome. But I don't like to run suicides all the time and when I turn them off, he's still plenty good. I think this is a toss up. I personally love my r5 Blade and have no regrets on him. I don't always trinity him; he's still useful without synergies. The healing is still a potion-saver, and his guaranteed bleed on Parry makes him useful against Thing fights - if you find yourself "out of cycle" with Thing, you can use Parries to reduce his rock stack safely without having to hope the AI cooperates and hides in block at the right time.
For me, Blade has gone from being a God to being a strong utility champ. For me, that's worth rank 5. But what I use him for, other people might already have covered. In that case, he'd be less valuable to rank up. A champ you don't use is a champ you've wasted rank up resources on. When I'm in a situation like that where on paper the champ is fantastic but it just isn't working for me, before I rank it up I try using it in situations where I don't need the rank up, like AQ say, or UC EQ. I try to see if there's any hope I will learn to like it or at least get good at playing it. Until I do, I don't rank up. If I do eventually find the right mojo to make the champ work for me, I rank up.
2. They’re worth an r5 nonetheless (id take up SS over She-Hulk, but both are great)
3. If you want.
4. I’d lean towards no
5. If you don’t like him, don’t rank him up. Waste of resources.
