Best Cosmic Champion?

Honestly, it hasn’t been long. But after seeing Karate Mike’s videos with this months madlad, Hercules, I have to say, he is absolutely insane. So, who is the BEST Cosmic Champion

This is my list:
No suicides: Hype
Suicides: Corvus as of now, but I think herc may overtake him.
Unduped:CGR

In general:
Hype
Corvus/Herc
Cgr
CMM

Watch the disagrees pour in from people who are scared af that he will get nerfed

They disagree with us because they fear the truth… but soon enough they will be enlightened by the true power of Herc

I mean...

I voted Corvus, I think he’s the most dominant right now. Hyperion not being a 6* is starting to hurt him I think. Plus, Corvus literally owns an entire game mode

However, I genuinely think there is an argument for Hercules. It’s early days yet, but KarateMike’s video proves that he can take down almost the entirety of act 6 completion himself. In fact, I believe 6.3.1 Medusa might be the only one you absolutely cannot do, everything else I believe is soloable with synergies and/or boosts.

Plus he should be great for AQ, incursions and general questing stuff. AW is the only place I think he stumbles due to the immortality failing

Again, it’s early days. But I don’t think he can be discounted yet

Corvus Hype Rider.

Hyperion with his power gain may unironically be the most overated champ in the game.

Why do we keep making threads on this? Everyone knows Groot is hands down the best cosmic

Here’s my moment for disagrees. Hyperion is only considered the best cosmic for the nostalgia factor. If you released Hyperion and any of Herc, CGR or Corvus in the same month today, I really believe you would not consider Hyperion the best champion.

In the past he could do so much that we required him to do, we weren’t as good at intercepting so his power gain was great, we needed damage so that was great, his secondary source of damage from sp1 was nice. But nowadays he simply doesn’t cut it. We can intercept better and play more reliably without the need for specials to intercept, we have more damage, we have other ways to get secondary damage.

He’s awesome, and it’s a testament to how good he is that he’s still in the conversation at all. But he is not as good as Cosmic champions who came after him, and people are hanging on to the notion that Hyp is the best based on using him to get through act 4, 5 and 6 in the day. We have better champs now

Doesn’t cut it? Idk about you but, he must be pretty insane if he’s still being used and considered a top 3 champ by many, highest rarity is a 5*, no synergies required, and still slays newer content.

While I do believe nostalgia plays a role in how often Hyperion gets voted I don't see it being the main/only reason.

If he was released today I'd probably still rate him as highly considering I didn't get him early enough for nostalgia to come into play. An argument can easily be made for corvus and Hercules if I ran suicides but I wouldn't hesitate putting him above CGR.

Yes the need for special intercepts has gone down with player improvement and act 6 attack values taking a nosedive but there are still plenty of places it's useful

We have higher damaging champs now but Hyperions damage is nowhere near lacking to the point where he doesn't cut it.

There are more sources of secondary damage in general but none of the champs being compared here have dot as easily accessible and potent.

It's not going to matter much longer anyways since 6 stars are the future and Hyperion hasn't been added to the pool but for now he still gets my vote

I think it honestly comes down to personal preference..

For me personally it's gotta be cgr.. he's not the best for everything, there's times I'd rather bring corvus or hype but cgr for was my white whale and I enjoy playing him, his animations are some of the best and his character design is flipping awesome!.

As soon as I saw what herc could do on day one I’ve been saying he’s the best cosmic. He’s still fresh, so it makes sense as to why people would be hesitant to saying he’s best. But like many great champions, he’ll slowly be regarded as one of, if not the best cosmic. Can disagree all you want, but he’ll prove himself to soon enough
Honestly I don’t think it’s possible to say he isn’t at the very least top 5 and be serious

I've always enjoyed your takes... but....

Now you're clearly my favorite forum user, spot on take.
