Symbiote Supreme vs Sorcerer Supreme

Who’s the more r5 worthy mystic? To me , it’s Sorcerer as Claire and Doom are already pretty solid at buff control.

Sorcerers is decent but she offers invaluable utility by being able to regen off block damage (great way to deal with pesky champs whose specials are hard to evade, for e.g Variant 5 first quest p99 or bishop with that horrendous block damage)

Not to mention she doesn’t rely on the defender to have buffs, which I believe renders Symbiote Supreme as a very niche champion. I’ve seen threads saying Sym didn’t get much play after 6.2 champ and 6.3 Medusa (feel free to correct me if you used Sym a lot for somewhere in act 6 or other content)

Anyway, who’s your pick?

    I have both r4 and love both, but since Kali takes effectively 0 block damage, and isn’t made to be a high damage champion until ramped up, she can do without an additional rank more so than SymSup.

    He would benefit more because he is a high damage aggressive champ that you want to go hard with. The non-regenerating health and relatively high attack power are very important to have maximized.

    depends which part of content u r in. Symbiote supreme make up a horseman in abyss if u don’t have doom.

    Sorcerer Supreme has more use than ss. I have both of them. Sorcerer for me top 3 mystic. She is very reliable.

    It’s like beardo vs void or OR vs Namor. One more versatile than the other, but the second absolutely shredding when they’re actually needed

    Sorcerer Supreme is very good, especially against those massive attack champs she can take block hits on her block and o my end up regenrating more.

    cant go wrong with either but kali has more utility overall with the regen on block etc. however, symb supreme does what he does best which is why i gave my vote for him. really really hard for me to choose between these two champs tho.

    Edit: also whenever i see a cosmic heavy path in any hard quest i tend to bring symb instead of kali simply because i find him more reliable in such fights.

    Sorcerer seems more complex and if you dont play her correctly she isn't good

    If you already have doom and bwcv at r5, the girl might bring more to your roster. Otherwise symb is a lot better mystic champ. Personally I use mystic champs only for buff heavy much ups because of md, and he's just the best buff control champ.
    As for content released - I still haven't seen any solo aol with doom, but soloed aol aegon and vtd with symb myself.
    So the correct answer is it depends on your roster

    Yeah this was my main concern, as I have both claire and doom and they can already buff control well.

    And yeah sym is the best at it, or the safest option, but finding a situation where he works for it but the other two dont, would be even more niche than he already is

    I’m personally a huge fan of sym after he’s done so much for my account, helped out a ton in act 6 and abyss

    Sorcerer is more versatile, yes, and Sym requires buff-heavy matchups, but we all have other champs for matchups without buffs, so we don’t take Sym Supreme into those matchups. He can get insane armour break, power steal, and make hits do next to nothing with his weakness debuffs. His bleeds stack insanely high, which makes him a great candidate for Diss Track (just wait a bit), and his power control and nullify absolutely wrecks Hyperion matchups. Also, his awakened ability doesn’t do much, so if you get him 6*, he’s still basically at his best.
