Are infamous doom / absorbing man worth a generic?

Pulled both and wondering. I’m at a point where generic isn’t nearly as useful as it once was. If not them then who?

Guess that depends on who you have, but keep in mind rebalancing.

Don’t have many of the newer champions. But other then that I think I have most of the core basic awakening champs alr Awakened.

Nice situation to be in. I really wanted absorbing man and would have considered if I got him versus Sasquatch sigs. Legacy talks highly in his latest tier list video. He has some synergies that make him or others more LC/DE friendly that I was interested in. I don't know much on the other idoom except prestige and I am not that tier of player to worry about that.

Idoom is safe. Absorbing man on the hand ... could be changed.

I also would like to know if either of then need the dupe 🤣

Doubt absorbing man would be nerfed unless on defense. Absorbing man 100% needs the dupe and preferably max sig. Makes playing him much less a pain in his non-ideal matchups (which is most of them).

Comparing Infamous to Absorbing, Absorbing benefits more from his Sig ability. The sig bolsters a lot of his kit in terms of general play.
Infamous mainly gets situational utility. The sig only comes into play in certain situations. Could be useful, but how often are you gonna have Aura up while Unblockable occurs?

Having said that - there are a lot more Tech champions that benefit from sig, while most Mystic champions don't really need sig. So if a Tech AG is worth more relative than a Mystic AG, then it follows that a Generic would be more worth it to use on a Tech than a Mystic.
