Is Namor still worth it?

If you have Omega or Gambit ranked up, then probably not.
No suicides? No problem! Just understand that every champ provides different attributes to your roster. He does his own thing, and how well he does it!
If it's for fun, the definitely rank him up.
Still a great damage champ that does well with suicides. Still has the best utility (@sig200) in his utility category. Still has great prestige.
That said, I have Namor, an AG, 199+ sigs, and run suicides, but I'm waiting on Omega. It all depends on what ya' need.
Still worth it
For me Namor falls into that category. There are alternatives—the game tends to revolve around creating matchups that require a specific handful of champs for this or that lane—but I consider him the best at what he does (akin to Ghulk, or Sym Supreme).
If you don’t need or aren’t able to afford a niche counter champ who requires max sig and/or you don’t plan to use him generally as an attacker, I don’t think it’s a wise rankup. If you have the resources and/or need his special ability, rank him up.

He can easily demolish 300k health pool with only 2 bars of power and 15 outrage, WITHOUT SUICIDES (very short ramp up, isn't it), top prestige and unique utility from max sig, cool animation (what else you want in single champ?)
People are saying Omega red is better.. maybe, but he needs max sig with Suicides or biohazard type matchup for damage and his utility is restricted to use medium attacks to bypass thorn damage.. I have R5 sig 140 Omega red and I don't use Suicides, he takes forever to complete a standard act6 matchup (300k health pools).. I took him to r5 only for synergy (colossus)
But I think he doesn't have too good types damage output as compare to namor or Omega.. I have 6* r1 but I haven't tested him yet
-Only use mediums literally doesn't matter. Most of his damage comes from passive degen and normal degen. Heavy attacks count for this too. Plus, unlike Namor, sig 200 doesn't make or break his utility
-His regen is off the charts
-His damage is amazing without suicides or biohazard
-His multiple ways of dealing damage bypasses so many nodes. Additionally, no one's immune to his degen save for robots and there are only 10 of them in-game iirc.
- He's practically double-immune
-He reduces the AA of tenacity and debuff shrug-off of the opponent
-His playstyle is extremely versatile so not many nodes limit him.
This is just some of the general utility he has.
He has double immunity that's the biggest advantage and I only took him to r5 for immunity (specially for biohazard type matchup) and synergies because I have better champs for double immunity who has much better damage for non Suicides rosters (g2099, ghost, dragon man, warlock)
