Does Falcon need his signature ability?

It’s one of those, he works just fine without it but when he has it it’s a nice boost sort of champion. I’d say he’s worth a class ag if you’ve got Nick and Ægon awakened

It pretty much doubles his damage, and increases his utility a nice chunk too. Falcon at max sig has almost double to crit rate he has unduped, and since all his damage comes from crits, the sig really really helps

He definitely is class gem worthy. And the sig really improves the performance.

This. Used mine on falcon cause I didn't have Aegon or Nick Fury. Took him to rank 4 and he is AMAZING!!! Pretty sure I just found my new favorite champ to play. Hitting crits in the thousands on meduims with the class disadvantage is pretty spectaluar

I took my unawakened 6 star to rank 2 and kinda regret it. The awakened ability gives him an additional 2 seconds of his lock on active and you do notice them 2 seconds. He’s still useable but not as good imo. Plus he gets bigger crit chance awakened.

The screenshot isn't to brag. Just to say that I'm speaking from experience using him, and clearly, really liking him.

He provides amazing value without being awakened through his ability to shut down all of the incredibly annoying defensive abilities (Korg, Thing, Electro, etc), when locked on.

Now that said, the benefits to being awakened are huge, cause when you're fighting an evade heavy champ, or even an evade heavy node (mix master or mesmerize), he is constantly increasing his crit damage, so having that massive crit rating from his sig is amazing!

Just today I cleared the entire mesmerize lane in 7.1.3 using Falcon, and never needed a single resource. The yellow numbers were extremely satisfying.

But yeah, circling back to your original question, he's a really solid champ even unawakened.
