Is Namor still worth it in 2022?

I have a 6* rank1 sig 20 namor and he was one of my first maxed out 4*s that I used to use. I have the sig stones to get him to 194 right now, I have completed all content except the grandmaster's gauntlet that he was good for. I run suicides and how does he work with recoil, My prestige would be a huge bonus but not something my ally is absolutely forcing me to do. Would it be worth it to give him the sigs and rank 3? Thanks

My understanding is that he works well with suicides, but I have no first hand experience.

I think he’s fallen off the meta a lot lately. He’s still a good champ though.

I personally wouldn’t invest in him over some other mutants, but that’s my opinion.

Do you enjoy playing him?

I have 6* rank 3 sig 200 namor. He works fantastic with suicides.

I won’t tell you I use him all the time, because I don’t. He’s a situational champ but when I’ve needed him, I’ve been glad I had him!

If I’m being honest, I think namor is a champ everyone should look to invest in at some point, be that the 6* or the 5*. There’s always going to be a time where that sig ability gets you through a tough matchup.

I also never do the full ramp up - I don’t find it necessary. 15 outrages, manually trigger imperious Rex and most of the time the burst gives me plenty of damage.

Honestly, he was my first 5/65 sig 200, and I still use him. Maybe not for everyday questing, but he excels for the stuff you really need him for, as well as just has decent overall utility and some really solid damage. If you don’t have him yet as a 5*, I definitely think it is worth taking him up. If you are considering using him for his sig ability, then you really should take him all the way to 200, though I hesitate to suggest anyone taking a 6* to sig 200 unless they need the prestige. 180 is doable but that’s up to you.

He works super well with suicides. You still lose the recoil damage, but if you’re aggressive the poison and bleed can actually heal you a tiny bit to make up for it. Definitely one of the most suicide friendly champs. You’ll want to go for a SP3 first, then you should be able to get to imperious Rex and sp3 one more time for crazy damage. If an sp2 doesn’t kill them, then try to heavy quickly to gain enough power for another sp2. Pretty much all normal defenders will be dead at this point, and you shouldn’t have lost much to recoil.

I have him at 6*R2 sig 200 and i don't use him that much anymore. There maybe 1 or 2 where he comes out but only if his the only option.

In my opinion, his not worth investing into as a 6* because you'll probably just use him for 1 or 2 fights. If you have him as a 5* then i say yes, r5 sig 200 him.

I would save the 6* sig stones on someone else.
