5* Silver Centurion

Just pulled him after finish Variant 4. Is he any good? Should I be happy with this pull? Didn't heard much about him so I really don't know how good is he.

You should be happy. You'll be happier if you can awaken him.

I can awaken him right now. I have one tech gem but I still don't have Guardian. So do you think I should wait or just use it on him?

I have seen some videos on Silver Centurion and I gotta say I like it so far. @Demonzfyre

That's up to you. I like Silver Centurion over Guardian but I'm a weirdo. If you're wanting to take full advantage of what S.C can do, you'll want to awaken him. The fact that you can quest with him and Mole Man (who's now great) is even better because that synergy is clutch. His DoT effects bypass regular immunities since they're passive. On most of the tech paths for MEQ's, he's super easy to build up and destroys that chapter.

He's bleed and shock immune with an armor up which is awesome for many paths in this game. Once you have plasma on a defender, hitting with a medium does nice burst damage. He has a 28 second slow on SP3 and access to slow on heavy which is also awesome for those evade nodes.

He's so much easier to use than Guardian as well.

That's very nice. I will play with him a bit more and if I like it, I'll just go for it since I have been waiting for a good tech. Thanks for the info! @Demonzfyre

You'll want to play a little aggressive so you can get lock on quicker. I think you'll like him.

I love Guardian and overall he is better. Having said that, as an owner of both champs max sig r5, I would recommend awakening Centurion now. His ability to bypass immunities and debuff immune stuff with his passives is so helpful and very underrated. His damage is crazy once you get off an sp2 and play aggressive.

My logic is always to use gems on the champs you have now instead of holding them forever waiting for a certain champ that you may not get for months. I think there are only a few champs in the game that are worth saving a gem for (Hype, Nick etc...) and tbh, Guardian is still nuts unawakened.

How is he easier to play than Guardian? Guardian is basically, 2 sp1 and sp2 for massive damage or use sp3 for long fights.
I pulled a 6* SC and was happy because of his Sorcerer synergy until I tried him. His playstyle is relentless, locked on or plasma falls off too quickly, you have to always be straight up in front of the opponent all the time. Can't wait around to bait sp or nodes. If you block or dex sp that pushes you too far back like WS, you start all over again. Is there anything I'm missing? I like his animations and my account needs more champs with shock and don't crit but his playstyle feels too unforgiving.
