Galan looks super cool and the herald prefight is pretty darn cool as well.
Buuuutttt that all doesnt came close too the CGR synergy😂 for real CGR just got 100% armor duration which he really needed 😂
Kabam really didn’t feel like giving him anything but had to because of he is a herald😂
Thoughts?

    i mean he doesn’t need anything from a synergy

    Agreed but it would still be better to give him something useful… like true sense instead of vigilance or something like that

    He could have at least gotten something useful. Nobody is benefitting from the armor up potency. It didn't have to be overpowered.

    What could be added that wouldn’t make him more overpowered?

    He has better synergies than this that aren't overpowered. For example, Night Thrasher increasing armor break duration by 35%. Nothing game changing, but still noticable to the point where you can get a couple extra big hits in. Or Ghost Rider's synergy, gives him extra buff duration if there are no active judgements. Can help you get a bit more power, a bit more vigilance uptime, or lets you trigger aptitude earlier to give you a judgement which makes your other buffs longer. Again, nothing insane.

    Say increasing power lock duration by 1 second? Allows for a tiny bit more power control, buff control and heal block utility, and an extra aptitude or two on the aptitude rotation. Nice bonuses but nothing that changes him drastically.

    Yeah he already has some really great synergies but people don't want to actually take the time to read and strategize because it would mean having to make a team featuring "not beyond God tier champions".

    CGR doesn't really need anything he's fine as he is plus he already has armor break synergy

    Could have made it so "precision from dexterity mastery does not activate CGR's judgement." Not a game-breaking synergy but still something some people might like. Not like it's a chore to play around that whole mechanic if you are saving for a big SP2, but this would give some more freedom.

    The current synergy is basically the first useless thing they could come up with. But I'm not mad at it. He's already an amazing champ.

    But you're in an exam and you don't know the answer for question yet you don't want to leave it empty so you write some random staff, that's the CGR synergy situation they had to give him one without actually making him any better so he got this

    Literally anything more would have been overpowered. CGR is a nuclear bomb in a game full of swords and guns. He’s not like other champions who have to meet certain conditions in certain matchups to unlock their big damage, he can just do it. He does not need nor should he have gotten anything more than this. Now he’ll be extra tanky if you mess up. That’s plenty in its own right, plus all of the benefits that being a Herald grants.

    It’s true he has amazing damage and some already existing good synergies but that doesn’t mean that he doesn’t deserve more love. I think even OP champs need more synergies from time to time to make them more fun.
    To name some OP champs that got a new synergy enhancing damage are apocalypse with stryfe, sigil SWitch and even normal SWitch with quicksilver, Mr Negative with valkryie,etc
    And I’m not saying giving him an even more broken synergy or something like that but something that is practical, like some other’s mentioned power lock duration, etc I’d personally like a normal synergy like increase his incinerate damage or vigilance converted into true sense, immunity to nullify,etc
    None of them will break the game but enhance the experience of the player and help him tackle some fights he previously can’t.🙂

    Just pointing out that Archangel got a cool synergy from apocalypse. Could’ve at least been more creative with that CGR synergy.

    I’m pretty sure he’s already got a synergy that gives a freebie. Something like your first dex won’t trigger the buff when you dash back.

    The thing is he *already has* these synergies that people are suggesting here. CGR is in a good spot. He didn’t need the love. Extra armor potency is fine. You weren’t putting him on the team for synergy reasons, he was going to be on your team regardless.
    The synergy you're thinking about is with any of the other Heralds and it isn't quite what you stated.


    So the hypothetical synergy I described is different and actually far more useful (at least IMO) since it's not just once per fight and it's applied to every precision gained through the dexterity mastery. But like I also said, he's already a great champ so I'm not mad about his synergy with Galan more or less being an afterthought (although SkyLord7000 does bring up a good point just 2 comments above this one lol).
