Cavalier Recursion — Gwenpool boss fight (2.1)

Quantum_Fizzix

Ok, I admit, I really dislike lifecycle. I just find it annoying in it normal incarnation, but this whole thing with putting it on champs who have a mechanic that also makes them hard to finish off is just mean.

Ok, so Gwenpool fight.... My team was NF, Hyp, Colossus, Medusa, Venom? NF is 5/65, the others are R4 5*.

Any pointers? Obviously I can’t just sit on an Sp3 and wait for the shield to get to full duration CD. I used mostly Cosmic champs to get through the map, but none of them do very well on this matchup against Gwenpool.

If I have this right it seems to me: Bleed heavy champ... get to Purple shield, get massive bleed (or poison or some other DOT) stacks while she’s vulnerable, knock her down, (maybe) launch special, then hope DOT tick finishes her before the shield resets?

Pointers?

Any champs that make lifecycle a bit easier?

Hype handles that fight really easy...u can't kill her with sp3 and she fails ur parries after her combo crosses 50...so ideally u need someone who can stun after a special which would give u an easy in to finish her off..hype,medusa,colossus all 3 fit the bill..ah yes fury too
Her heavy can easily he heavy countered so u can knock her down with that to increase the shield duration and once she is close to being ko throw a special which can stun and finish off the fight

CMM. Stun on special 2 leads to easy openings.

I just start the fight with lots of heavy attacks, to give me the full 3.5 sec window for lifecycle. NF does have the stun on SP2, and a great chance to get the extra damage during bleed vulnerability.

I used Angela and just kept punishing her sp1 with a sp1 or a quick heavy, then when it was time to drop her, I hit her with sp1, then rushed in and zerged her down, if you time it right, you can just chip her through block if she gets her guard up faster than you can rush in. Good luck.

NF was the best for this fight. Just parry, heavy until she gets low and save for a SP2. Hope it stuns, and then you win

DOTs don't do any damage on lifecycle

They do, they just can't finish the fight for you. She gets bleed and poison immunity every 10 seconds, but that's easy to navigate around

They can apply, but they don’t do damage. But she has bleed vulnerability, so having a bleed active gives you that 200% damage boost. It’s a weird fight.

Thanks everyone. Thought I had an ok team, just need to line it up better

The lifecycle on Gwenpool is the final straw with me and Kabam! F you! Twats!
