Hulkbuster is already way better than Cable (tbf you probably didn't know HB got buffed in June). I mean he's got some use only if you have a 5* or 6* Apocalypse and if you desperately rely on synergy to be good then you're not as good as those who don't. Cable isn't really hated because he's bad, he's hated because of KDSuperFlash.
Cable might not be the best attacker but as a defender in AW or AQ he can be a nightmare. So if you look on it in a whole perspective he’s not bad at all. But if you only think of him as an attacker he’s not the best in class.

He isn't really a good defender, his SP1 won't do much so you can block it if you can't dex it (which is possible), his SP2 can be dexed easily if you have the rhythm going and his regen and power gain aren't anything scary. I mean he defends better than a lot of others but does that really help him?
When it comes to attack, you're better off using Domino or any other mutant because unlike Cable, they don't need a synergy to be god-tier. I mean sure you can have Cable with you and an Apocalypse but is that really practical when you compare it to other options such as Gambit or Archangel who can do better than Cable on their own but also gaining very useful utilities when they become Horsemen?
