Cassie vs Silk

Azdef

I know there's a lot of debate on Silk already but considering Cassie's no slouch ,who would you guys prefer to rank up?
Also can we throw Photon in the mix as well?

I don’t have a silk yet…but I like Cassie a lot

Cassie is very solid and has some good damage and utility. I think silk is more of a brawler, big and fast damage. They both require some AI cooperation, but Cassie manipulates in a way that gives you a bunch of control over the fight. I have both at r3, and I tend to use Silk more in BGs, but Cassie gets used more when there’s a specific node that I’m countering

Idk about Photon

Silk duh, cassie was just flavour of the week.

Depends on what you want them for. Silk is a beast when it comes to raw damage, but is easily destroyed by content that doesn't allow relics, like war, or stun immune nodes.

Cassie is also currently a monster in war too with her 90% attack reduction taunt, good luck dying. Granted that taunt is going to be fixed soon, but you can still hit 86% damage reduction with taunt and the inequity mastery.

Overall I would place most value in Photon since she's also a solid defender
But purely in terms of attack I would have to go with Cassie

Attack?
Cassie
Crush?

Objectively photon is the best. Easy to use, burst damage, good for quest, bleed immune, safety net, solid defender as well.

Thanks guys. Much appreciated
@Pikolu , any particular reason you r5'd silk over Cassie? Just enjoy the champ more?

I took both to r5, absolutely love both of them.

Cassie still whiffs her heavy and specials not looking to invest in a bug champ so silk for now.

I can’t talk too much about silk since I haven’t pulled her yet, but I’d say Cassie. She’s so versatile, tanky, and has so much control over the fight. She’s also a decent defender.

Silk seems to be the faster champ and has some other useful utility but I don’t think that surpasses Cassie.

Cassie is definitely better overall....Silk is terric for damage but has hinderances

Ortoun

I don't have Cassie as a 6 yet, but Silk is amazing. With the right hacks she is an incursion monster, even better then herc imo, and she is just fun to play.

EdisonLaw

Cassie can definitely control the fight better, but Silk definitely has more damage.

Depends on who you want, both are great

ItsClobberinTime

I have both and personally, I'd say Cassie. While Silk definitely has more damage and can be quicker, Cassie has a lot more utility than Silk and she has more control over the fight (she has damage too but you need a little bit of ramp up for the big sp2). I would rank up both regardless though, in fact Silk is one of my most wanted from the Titan which I'll be opening soon so fingers crossed.
Photon I have no idea cause I don't have her yet.

Cassie seems too slow on attack for BGs

EdisonLaw

She does, but only if you want that sp2 damage. Otherwise, stick with power stings.

She’s definitely not slow if you play her right, most of my fights with her are under 60 seconds. Just build up power stings and spam sp1. Only go for the big sp2 if it lines up naturally.

EdisonLaw

Or you can go for SP2 or even Sp3 in longer matches

Azdef

So I have been using both in this meta and Silk is an absolute nuke. Cassie definitely seems slower but maybe that's just me not having used her before...

Silk is better
