CMM: is a champ that solely bursts down opponents, making use of her sig to do so. As health pools have increased, her value and usage is definitely dropping. Unlike corvus, who remains key in high lvl AQ and other content due to his very strong cheat death mechanic, she is falling behind.
Hype, Corvus and, CGR
these 3 are all above her, we know this.
But let's actually look at the rest of the cosmic class in the eyes of a progressing player.
Medusa, she is still the best robot killer in game, better than magneto (for robots) since she shuts down all power and its just infinite backdrafts with her sig as protection + high damage.
Angela, immune to debuffs, nice kit with healing, autoblock counter, lots of buffs and some debuffs. Very good all around and has a lot more uses than a champ who just bursts people down (which she cant do in 7.2 healthpools).
Venom, much better in variants that help progressing players get t5cc. Also he is a very strong all around champ that works for many things.
Aarkus, strong kit with nice power gain, debuff shrug, passive damage, destroys robots and his power resistance is actually really good. Helps a ton in 6.4 static blast/other lanes that screw with ur power.
Cull: Block damage isnt much of an issue in 7.2, allowing cull to shine. He has much better damage ramped up and can put out some crazy numbers. Additionally, his parry on projectiles is really nice.
SS: Amazing prestige, and he has some great utility. While CMM is all damage + like 10 seconds of immunity (you cant burst people down in that time tho), he has a great kit that works for some niche lanes.
Odin: His damage got a very big increase after his buff. While I wont be bringing him in along as a standalone charactor I bring him often for his great team abilities. He may not be a better standalone champ but he is getting more use than CMM.

Not every champ will have their uses everywhere . Even you can't use Ghost , Quake and Doom on every path.
Will he/she work for my next fight? Yes? Cool. No? On to the next champ who can!
I think Angela and Venom are all better than CMM. CMM needs ramp up and in many cases you just dont have time and condition to ramp her up for a very short time of use.
A little add-on would be that she can fall all day long and it wouldn’t change the fun I have while using her.
If we are going to use rank 5 CMM in 7.2 where you have to finish the fights in 12 second then yeah healthpool is high for her.
Rank 3 will wreck those healthpools.
I am still waiting to pull Nick to use her in end game content.I have used her only in act 6.4.4 but I hardly see any issue while using her.She has smooth ramp up and remaining in indestructible all the time and melting the opponents is so satisfying.
