Sorry spidey didn’t mean to ping twice

Spidey 2099 could probably use it the most. Hyperion, King Groot, and Quicksilver are also good candidates for a gem. If you run suicides, Diablo becomes bulkier with his sig ability and his damage increases by a bit.

I would already have said Hype for the generic, but if you have a cosmic, then 100% use that on Hyperion. You only want him at sig 40 so he won't be much or a drain on sig stones, but he is still a beast. Personally, I would consider Diablo, Mr F, Cap Marvel Movie, QS, and Prof X for the generic (I don't have enugh experience with Sersi, Titania, or Spidey 2099, but I also haven't heard that they would be worthy).

This also comes with my typical disclaimer: *It very much depends on things like your mastery setup (suicides/not), if prestige matters at all to you, do you have the sig stones to invest, does defense matter to you.* The answers to those questions can change the advice drastically. Also, rank champs you enjoy playing.

Cosmic on hyperion for sure

Diablo is good if you’ve got suis on, if not I’d personally go quicksilver (or killmonger since his sig is important)

Cosmic gem on Hyperion, no doubt. (Unless you want to use it on Groot.)
The generic is really up to you, but good candidates include (breakdown by class.)

Mystic: Diablo (if running suicides,)
Cosmic: (assuming you used your class gem on Hyperion) Captain Marvel (movie), Sersi, Corvus
Tech: Don't bother, but if you really want to do it on a tech SMSE or Warlock.
Mutant: Apocalypse (as defender only), ProfX if you must
Skill: Killmonger (as defender only), Korg (as defender only)
Science: Quicksilver, MODOK (as defender only), Thing (best on defense)

Hope this helps

Karate Mike has a nice video on awakening gems and who to use it on... divided into "Worth the generic" and "Worth the class gem"

Old thread but these champs are all still pretty good if you don’t run suicide masteries
