SmallTimeANT

Just a genuine question I needa know.

I'd like to know people's responses too since I just got hit monkey last night. Would you guys say he's worth ranking up?

Definitely worth ranking up, he's got a lot of guaranteed crits going for him and his critical bleed are huge, definitely worth it but not over guardian, who has more utility in my opinion.

Hit monkey is also a decent war defender provided your opponent does not have much knowledge of his abilities, so if you're interested in war, maybe u can try him out there

More utility, and the damage output is quite insane. Many say he needs ramp up, but with little ramp up, he can still pack a punch

Hit Monkey packs an insane punch. Guaranteed crits, insane bleed damage, Evade/miss counter, aar, and debuff purification

I thought u would be more interested in hit monkey

Apes together strong?? Or weak?

I am not much aware of hit-monkey, maybe @Monke can give us insights about him, but gaurdian, gawd, i love him and he's the tech i want as my first 5* tech, apart from warlock or guilly 2099. That block proficiency synergy, power drain, good utility, damage when ramped, and the auto block on specials is all awesome.

Guardian tbh, the champ is insane and not many have him right now so he's little under the radar

Absolutely amazing block proff synergy ✔️

Great utility and he's a tank with high sig ✔️

Damage Machine ✔️

Also many put him down saying "he's a ramp-up champion" but "SP1 --- SP2 --- Enemy dead" is hardly a ramp-up in short/medium fights. He is tech class's Sunspot but better than Sunspot at what he does in my opinion

Like, I REALLY love him.

@TechnoStrain this is for you, mon ami.
I haven't come across a single scenario where he hasn't helped me (except Warlock and Mister Sinister). Most people complain about how squishy he is, but if you use him right, then you'll never be hit. What I ideally do is corner the opponent and go with M-L-M-backdraft. Rinse and repeat, and opponents will melt before you even know it. Even if you can't inflict Bleed, his critical hits (a.k.a all his hits) will destroy almost anyone. The only requirement is being good at intercepting.

He's not only about damage though, and also comes with some easily accessible yet solid utility. Activating "Assassin's Cunning" (dexing the opponent after M-L-M) will prevent enemy Evasion and give him a chance to Evade, and his Bleeds have a chance to be Critical Bleeds. Activating "Primal Rage" (hitting into opponent block after M-L-M) will let him Purify Debuffs and inflict a Disorient Debuff, and using his Sp1 while this is active not only makes it Unblockable but also gives him Vigilance, making it the only Special Attack in the game that can't be avoided. Ending a combo with a Crit before using his Sp2 makes all the hits of that Special crit as well, and this will more or less be the killing blow for most enemies. This little monke has gotten me through content a lot of Champs can't go through (he out-damages RoL Wolverine's Healing! At a 4 star R4!), and he definitely needs more recognition.

Thank you for your in-depth explanation! I'll definitely work on him.
