    1)CGR - True Immunities, Cosmic Judgements allowing you to power lock the opponents power bar (more specials when you want and less time spent baiting), and just obscene damage without relying on boosts or suicides

    2 and 3 can be swapped but it’s Hyperion and CMM poison immune tanks that do great damage and have power gain and great fury buffs. I like CMM slightly better as she can eat SP3s if awakened. But there’s also a reason Hyperion tops out as a 5star still

    4) Venom, maybe I’m just too in love with this his kit but Om NomNom makes rage nodes, turtle nodes, hit me I dare you etc free healing and worry free. No need to even think about dying if you are rolling at 100%. And on max deep wounds those bleeds do alot of work... also easily accessible armor break. Tons going on and arguably the Variant King atm.

    5) Corvus, letmevrefer you back to @Karatemike415 ’s very well written comment on why Corvus is great. Those charges burn out fast on me though even doing my best trying to manage light intercepts and recharging the Glaive is totally possible but let’s not pretend that he keeps all his utility without it. You can mitigate this with a smart use of boosts and suicide masteries but I count the need to do this against him which is why I put him as 5th.

    I’ll end with I’m lucky enough to have each of these as R5/R2 ranked and I use all of them all of the time. Corvus does get the least play because once I reached 6.3 I found the others more valuable including when exploring 7.1. because their utility does not have a refresh period I need to manage mid fight.

    That... that is a horrible list. And you're absolutely wrong. No need to elaborate.
    At this point it’s clear that if people don’t think exactly like @Etjama they are “horribly wrong” no need to elaborate.

    My list is fully subjective to my account and my experience. Corvus was my first R5, I know and love his kit, but I find him unreliable after 6.2 with how I play him when compared to the other 4. Anybody still pushing for UC and Cav I’d rank him as the best to rank first even. And I think you can have an honest and respectful debate with how anybody would like to rank 1-5 on my list, I also acknowledge a champ like Cull I don’t have enough experience to give him a fair shake too.
    Don't worry. Etjama loves to bully people. Also he has been joking all this time no need to take him seriously.

    @Masterpuff im an owner of a r5 5*, CGR but this guy saying true immunity is just saying garbage. He only has x2 immunites and thats Bleed and Incinirate
  • GhostboytjieGhostboytjie Member Posts: 2,471 ★★★★★
    He has his power lock and "nulify" yes but not being poison / coldsnap/ frostbite immune could make a difference. His damage is still there tho cant deny that

    Lol I have to be a sadist at this point but here you go. Conversely I have to wonder how much CGR experience I’m chatting about this with. It’s also interesting how my personal preference can be wrong lol, but oh well at least the convo is getting more productive.

    That's actually even sadder tbh that you have them all but can still be so wrong...

    I give up. Opinions are different, ill respect that.

    @Masterpuff i do appreciate you responding with your rankings, thanks. I don’t really think we are really arguing about much here as we’d probably both advise anyone to rank any of these 5 if you got them as they are all amazing and offer different utility.

    The order really depends on the content you want to tackle and mastery preferences

    Just been insanely luck with Cosmic pulls. Like everyone I saved shards for that featured and the luck ran true on my first crystal.

    You should rank up CGR but he’s not the best option for lol.

    Agreed. You can quibble with the order but those champions are commonly thought of as the top cosmic champions. It can’t be a horrible list as most people would list those champions as among their top champions too. The only one that many people would argue against would be Venom, but thats a personal preference for a very solid champion that people don’t mention that has aged just as well as Hyperion.

    It is not like he has Superior Iron Man on the list, which would make it horrible.

    For OP: I don’t use suicides so I have never experienced Corvus with it. Corvus even without suicides has done a lot for my account.

    There is no wrong choice between CGR and Corvus.

    They both provide a good amount of utility for completing content, so I would argue its more about which one you like better (as a champion, as a playstyle, as a member of your questing team). I personally really like Silver Surfer, so my favorite team at the moment includes Surfer + CGR + Guardian.

    At this point, I know a lot of people sleeping on Venom. He would make my top 5, maybe not other people's. He has a great amount of utility:
    - Spidey evade counter
    - Havok counter (armour up easily obtained)
    - IMIW counter (true strike kicks in right when IMIW starts to autoblock)
    - Buffed up
    - Disstrack (if you can bleed)
    - V2, V5, V6 option
    - Armour break (V6)
    - Sp1 health steal
