Skill AG for Blade or Killmonger?

ok, im a cavalier
doesn't have any target for now to be thronebreaker yet, but my roster kinda lack of diversity
mostly cosmic, mutant and science
i have 2 skill ag, dont have nf or aegon too, just pulled aeogon in 6* but im pretty sure i will duped him in the next 100 years
anyway, which one should i awaken? Blade or KM
kinda a bit confuse about these two cause some people in forum said that blade isn't that relevant like he used to be🤔 and km lack of damage idk...
give me the reason why! thanks
notes: might be an option for monthly event quest

I haven't played with KM a lot, but I think his dupe is reverberation so the other guy takes damage when hitting you based on power. KM at his base is great but honestly his dupe isn't super important. Up to you though
that being said its your account and if those are the champs u wanna awaken i'd go with blade as he benefits better from the awakening...killmonger's awakened ability is more of a defensive ability as it reflects damage received...whereas blades awakening gives him regen on block which is anyday more useful....this is coming from a guy who absolutely loves killmonger for his utility ...awakening gem is wasted on killmonger.
I used a Gem on Killmonger. No regrets - he's great. Thinking he might go to R5 soon.
For me, the maxim I follow is: Play with the champs you have, not the champs you wish you had. Maybe I'll pull Aegon or Nick. With around 150 champs in an ever-expanding pool, maybe I never will.
But (a) I'm getting use out of Killmonger right now, and (b) Awakening Gems are getting more and more common. You say you've got two gems: use one and save one.
For me, Killmonger did more for my team than Blade would have:
Accessible True Strike (and doesn't rely on buffs/debuffs - can't be nullified or shrugged off like a Slow debuff)
Accessible Invulnerability and Counterpunch
Decent armour with crit resistance
Okay bleed (and potential for amazing bleed off his SP3), if nothing like in Nick's class.
His modest damage gets better when Awakened and high Sig.
He doesn't rely on buffs
Great synergies with other good champs
Blade is good, but less crucial than he used to be. He's still very useable in a lot of content (hey, just look at the votting results!)
Both good champs, both get a lot better when Awakened (although both benefit from high Sig: KM slightly more so).
So for me, the only wrong answer is to do nothing.
