On which champ should I use my mystic AG? Not the best Tigra player but also not 100% clear on how Abs Man’s rebalancing will affect him. Can take either close to 200 sig straight away.

The less tigra players out there the better.
Legit!!
The extra 10% duration will be somewhat helpful considering the overly passive AI
While for Tigra
The AI usually gets way more passive when you have the senses so it doesn't really help having her Awakened
Also, the less Tigra players out there the Better
Is absorbing worth R4 over doom, sig 200 switch, tigra, wiccan, maw, juggs, Spidey, longshot etc? Trying to work out what makes him the new best thing and not particularly confident on either heavy counter or light intercept....
Sorry for highjacking the thread!
The mystic class usually leans more on the side of utility most of the time, and it is nice to have a champion like Abs Man whose main focus is damage and survivability. Not saying that he doesn't have any utility because the little bits that he has can give him absolute control over fights under the right circumstances. Any fight that has unblockable/indestructible/unstoppable/immortality buffs is just food for him. Not only that, he has 7 immunities in his base kit and gets an additional one if you bring along iBom/iHulk. Just yesterday I decided to do my exploration run of EOP (still have a few challenges left). Took the right path and Creel was able to solo Herc, Terrax and Dragon Man.
Overall, he's just an incredibly versatile champion for questing, AW, BGs (where he is a menace and gets constantly banned, especially this season), but the cost is that you need to be comfortable with light intercepting to a certain degree. You don't necessarily need to land an intercept, but your light attack must interrupt the opponent's animations so you could bait heavies and whiff 1 or 2 to land the 3rd and pause his form. Ofc, light intercepting allows you to stay more aggressive and avoid chip damage. Heavy countering is more of a bonus, if you can land it and make the fight go faster, then go for it. Otherwise just parry heavy and cancel into a special.
Will have a play around with him
What I found out was that after doing
MLL dash back
Most opponents dash at you allowing you to get a light intercept but you cannot chain it like Medium intercept combos as somehow after light intercept opponent becomes passive but it buys you some pause every other combo tho
