Stuck at phase 3 of gm I have no reverse controls immune champs on roster what to do?

There’s only one thing you can do and that’s adjust your play and learn how to fight with reversed controls. Anyone that’s beaten him has done it.

You can also try to get him to wounded before phase control sets in (hard), or just take a blunder and keep going backwards (by swiping forwards) until the timer runs out. That's how I did all of my runs initially.

dance around and wait out the timer, it's not that bad

ChrisPowell

Just keep reviving. You're almost there.

I think the thing that helped me learn at first was to:

Try to pause it when the timer gets close to the reversed controls portion and take a breath.
When you hop back in and the reversed controls trigger, try to be dashing away from him first.
Don't worry about hitting him during the phase at first. Try waiting it out by spam-dashing back and if he holds his block, dash in to him and hit his block for a MLLL combo, then dash back to waste some time.
Obviously this all depends on your prompt, and if it is achievable (like hit his block) then try to focus on that.
The blunder taken from an ignored prompt probably wont kill you. Mis-timing a dash or forgetting about reversed controls and eating a combo will...most likely. Focus on that and not the prompts.

Double check your synergies, there are a few champs that can pick it up that way, but failing that, some great advice already in this thread.

If it makes you feel any better, I don't think there were any champs with reverse control immunity when he first came out. I might be mistaken though

Mr. Sinister at least. I think Mysterio may have been out beforehand as well, so you’d have him and Emma too. That may be it.

I've beaten the GM on 3 different accounts now, and on all 3 I used 5* Colossus.

The reverse control immune champs are usually pretty weak in this fight. You are better off getting used to the reverse with a heavy hitter and ending the fight sooner. I used 5* Doom.

If you have knull in your roster, practice against him with a weak champ and get him to throw his sp1. Practice that until your more comfortable with the reverse controls.

I’ve never understood why reverse controls baffle people so much.

You can ignore it and just rely on block and light punches or heavies if I remember correctly. Or you just push left instead of right for 20 of the 40 second window.

The icon appears right under your health and gives you a prompt. Worst case scenario just dash a few times (so you dex back) and hold or tap block to make the ai hold off.

NastyPhish

Dash is dex. Dex is dash. Might help to think while reversed. Try to eat all Damage. This will actually make you dex it all. It’s how I learned Emma frost and it works for everything to date.

6* r1 sinister went brrrr when I first did it

Kitty with Emma does pretty well

How did you manage to do that? Who else was on your team? Trying to get some tips before I make my run

I’d learn to get good. Best advice you’ll get.

Most advice here is useless without knowing what champs are on the team. You can't swap them now so you have to make them work. Focus on the champ that does most raw damage and just keep reviving. For me it was Juggernaut, who is immune to reverse controls, but I picked a team for the path and each phase.

Just remember, you’ve hit one of the more significant tests of progression in the game. It’s OK to struggle here. If you feel like you have too much sunk cost to back out and change champs all you really can do is keep reviving and going in with the intent of doing better each time. you can certainly go out and watch some video. One of the reasons that I keep alt accounts with varieties of champs is so I can back out of an account and go practice different things in different parts of the game. Barring that just remember that thronebreaker is a significant value add in every way over cav. It is worth losing some units, reviving and just slowly grinding your way through. When I did the fight years and years ago, I think I actually had to put the phone down halfway through out of fatigue, and come back and finish it later. That was obviously with 5* 5/65, but but at the end of the day people are getting to the grandmaster much faster than they used to, and probably don’t have the skills that we all had at that time?

Agreed. I think there was one phase where I struggled to get him to wounded, and I think I used Corvus to actually literally take that phase down the hard way.
