I love spot so much

Csutton

Dang. Really thought it’d be more mixed lol. I’m liking Spot too!

I don’t have Spot in a higher rarity but I wouldn’t sleep on Torch. He does a lot and not just against mystics. He counters miss so easily and only Iceman is immune to Nova Flame. It can’t be purified or cleansed. It just melts things. Spot seems really cool but Torch is a classic for a reason.

Spot, torch is kinda eh outside of mystics and energy champs and prefight is one time use.

Hmm I struggle to understand the hype of spot. I've seen he can d9 some great damage, but outside of that what is he great for aside from maybe blocking unblockable specials or something? Torch for me was super helpful for story content in act 7 and above.

Not to say that anyone is wrong of course, I just don't see the huge appeal of spot, but I suppose I usually weigh utility pretty heavily.

Everyone seems to love Spot so much, I only have a 3* of him, so I haven't ever tried him out. I personally LOVE Human Torch, that's who I would do. He's such a great cheese for mystics, or really any class. As long as they can burn, Torch can torch

FrostGiantLord

Spot is overhyped. Torch, on the other hand, can burn through opponents with his lava flame, is guaranteed to win against all mystics, and is just an all around great champ.

Spot, but be prepared to need Sigs. Torch is nice to have extra Nova for sure, but the overall benefit is better for Spot.

Spot all day. Ive just rank 5ed him, sig 200. My all time favorite champion!

It's not a one time use. The higher the sig the higher chance you have of being able to use it more than once. Just today alone I used it 3 times in one quest.

I just pulled Spot from the featured crystal. Is his awakened ability worth a science gem? If so, what sig level does he need?

Torch for me, Spot for you. I don’t have the skill to play Spot…

It’s a big part of his burst damage. I guess it’s not needed to play him but damage will be much less

Spot since you have sigs
Not a torch fan

Mcoc players try not to call literally any champ overhyped challenge. Both are great and definitely not overhyped. They can tear through battlegrounds and mystics equally well and one can deal with champs that aren’t mystics or energy based champs better

I will. I have a spot unranked at the moment so it would be cool to have an excuse to take him up cause he is unique and seems fun. Like I said I just saw a lack of utility and no immunities ya know.

Csutton

Well then… this morning didn’t help my decision making lol. Now both Spot and Torch are awakened

Poopdigs6

spot are you kidding? spot all the way, uggghhh, i love that guy

The ability to make the opponent miss so reliably is actually pretty good and can help you counter a lot of stuff. He can also kill pretty much anything in just one sp2 coupled with the great block proficiency he gets so I think he’s a very reliable champ. Torch is great too though and I would say that he does handle mystics like Mephisto more reliably.

Csutton

I’m thinking I r4 spot now and after I get the rest of Bundle 1 I’ll take torch or galan up to r4

Why? I just pulled him but still havent used.

Aside from being an annoying defender, what makes him so good offensively?

Sidd777

Torch is better imo, but spot is so much fun to play

If you 'charge him up' by getting the opponent to hit your portal block, you can do some seriously insane burst damage with Specials. Watch some videos by Nick136 or Karatemike.

Which, in my opinion, should be on important part of the decision. My advice, is to spend some time playing with each champion, and see which one you prefer. It's got to be fun after all.

Ok, everyone says spot is overhyped, and even I thought he was overhyped, then I got him and started using him, and imo he is one of the best champs in the game. Nothing against torch because he is rly good too, but if I had to choose I would def go with spot.
