Is it worth it to take gambit into 6.2.6 to deal with magik instead of fury?

I probably phrased the title badly but I’m trying to plan out my team for 6.2.6 and I’m still not sure who to use for magik. One option I just realized was gambit because his medium, heavy, and special attacks don’t trigger things like magik’s limbo. Keep in mind this is the only fight I’d be using him for if I brought him. I was planning on taking ghost, wasp, fury, bwcv (all rank 5), and stealthy (6*r1). Stealthy and bwcv are my boss counters. So if I brought gambit he’d replace either fury or wasp. I’d rather it be fury though because I’ll be using ghost for the majority of fights and I’d like the wasp synergy for peace of mind. It feels like I just rambled so here’s the poll.

Take gambit instead of wasp (I’d rather not but I’m including it if people think it’s the best idea)

    He’s got tasty block proficiency so if you screw up last 10% he might not be a bad shout

    Gambit still triggers limbo. His medium etc only prevent passive effects that trigger when struck like Electro. Only his concussion on the SP2 can prevent limbo. There are better alternatives.

    Try it out for yourself. Push Magik over a bar of power with a medium from gambit and look at the absence of you taking damage. Tested it 30 seconds ago as I type this. He is one of the best Magik counters along with Omega who shares the ability.
