Why is Nick Fury better than Hit monkey? What’s the right strategy?

IcePick

Here is the deal. Every list and poll has Fury as the best skill champ. I had a 6 star on my old account but never had him awakened (even as a four star). Recently rolled a 5 star and used a skill gem to awaken him and am trying to understand how to play him to maximize his effectiveness.

I’ve used hit monkey and falcon as my skill go tos. Why is Nick fury so much better? Seems like you have to always play him on low health for him to be effective. Do you end up using potions after each Fight? what is your strategy? Bleed?

I never kill him, I got max deep wounds and I finish combos with light attacks

Sometimes it doesn’t matter if he’s low health, the permanent unblockable saves you so much health as there’s no need to intercept or parry to get openings.

For short fights -casual 5 hit combo (last hit of the combo deals so much damage ) and most fights willcend quickly.

For long fights - parry , heavy * 7 times ( to get 3 internal bleeds ) and then do normal 5 hit combo while internal bleeds do their job.

This is how I play him . Most people like to use him in 2nd life where he hits 2* harder and go unblockable . I use him in both lifes.
