What are some of your champs in your roster that were totally not on your radar or you were uninterested in, but you’ve since changed your mind and actually enjoy using?
For me it would be Red Guardian and Man Thing. I totally didn’t even think either were interesting in their respective eq’s, they just seemed pretty meh at the time. In fact, I only expected to rank man thing for defense. Man was that crazy... he’s helped me clear so much, not to mention is an incursions monster too. Learning rg has been huge for me especially with working on spite paths, so much fun. Plus he’s not my usual style of champ, so it’s a refreshing change for me.

Apoc - I honestly thought I would mostly use him for the horsemen synergy, but I almost never activate it because he is so dang good on his own. He is pretty much a lane clearer for me.
Guardian - I took him to r5 back in December and he is probably my most used champ (at least top 3). I knew he was good, but not THIS good.
Red Hulk - I've had him at r4 for months, and I originally used him pretty much as a mystic counter only, but he is so valuable overall.
Silver Surfer - I am using him more and more and his is criminally underrated by the community.
Now on the flip side....
Nick Fury - I got him from a Nexus and used a gem on him and took him to r4 immediately. I don't really use him that much. I know he has a certain playstyle/rotation that I just am not interested in learning I guess.... who knows. I am by no means saying his is overrated, I jsut don't really find a spot for him other than AW to be honest.
It was Archangel.
But now,
It's any decent tech especially a Robot
Sentinel
They didn't impress me that much at first but they have all grown on me heavily.
He's very backdraft intercept friendly since you can very likely (without outside powergain influence) keep them in the corner constantly bleeding and near 0 power.
People don't talk about him much, and no one ever really seems happy when they pull him. I gave him a chance though, and no regrets. Super good on buffed up, diss track, mesmerize, evade champs, robots, armor up champs/nodes, etc. And he hits hard if you learn his rotation.
Currently my main candidate for Rank 3 six star
Same with Red Hulk, only had a 3 star for a long time and so only played with him very rarely in arenas. Then pulled a 6 star, and tbh was a little disappointed at the time but did some quests with him and discovered he's a weapon and tears through mystics with ease.
