Upgrade and use Juggs or Wiccan for Grandmaster (reverse controls)

Usagicassidy

I've finally made it to the Grandmaster and am trying to prep to be able to manage that fight. I'm rubbish with reverse controls, so for that phase I'll need someone who is immune.

I have a 5* awakened 4/55 Wiccan that I could rank up to 5/65 and take into the fight

OR I have a 6* unawakened 2/35 Juggernaut that I could rank up to 3/45 for the fight.

(For context, I have no Professor X, Sinister, nor a 5/6* Emma for reverse immune synergies, so these two are likely my only options)

Wiccan has a small health pool and doesn't do much damage if the enemy isn't getting buffs while juggs is a tank and dishes out a lot of damage.

I unitman through that phase. Maybe only stayed alive once or twice before reverse control kicks in. So, did not really matter.

6* Juggs will probably be used more often than Wiccan in the long run

Juggs is a tank, and I'm sure he's a good option.

However, your statement misses the fact that Wiccan inflicts Incinerate any time the opponent's abilities fail due to his immunities.

So that literally every time he moves whilst he should be affected by Reverse Controls...

Plus, I don't see any other Neutralise champions in the OP's collection, which is worth considering.

Juggs felt like a cheat for grandmaster. Had him with diablo and Colossus for synergy so easy to clear path with full team in tact and practice grandmaster for a few runs

Isn't grandmaster immune to any damage-over-time effects?

I thought I read that he was - is it phase dependent or is it across the board? I know you need a DOT champion for one of the prompts (I forget what they're called) but that he doesn't take damage from them?

Oh yeah, quite probably.

Oops

It's an ability that works great against Knull, though 😂

I don't think thats how it works. It's most probably a single time trigger that if failed once doesn't retrigger.

I looked up a video and it attempted to trigger once and the timer disappeared for the rest of the fight.

And the other point mentioned already

Juggs is just better for the grandmaster
Some people have soloed GM with him
