I got a tech 4-5 gem. Who should be my first rank 5?

    Nimrod is just fine even at r3

    Deserves the r4, r5 seems overkill.

    Nimrod
    I choose Nimrod over FAntman every time on BG

    I had the same dilemma. Went with Nimrod, but it's literally a coin toss as they are both that good!!

    Just had this dilemma - I went with Future Antman:

    1) being able to just build your power and throw SP1 or SP2 as you desire. Such a neat utility.
    2) Sig ability makes him very tanky
    3) I didn’t have a power control champ I liked until now. Don’t have to sweat it if you accidentally push your opponent to SP3

    I like Nimrod obviously but I was convinced by those that said Future Antman can cover more fights. That was my experience as well

    Nimrod
    But, I R5'd Fantman for a reason.

    I feel like Nimrod is so busted specifically for mutants he's kind of like HT, AA or CGR where they feel fine being a rank lower when doing an optimal match up.

    Fam is really good too obviously but I find myself using him for a lot of off class matches (mangog, zemo, abs man, kingpin) and the extra rank feels better on him.

    Zemo? Interesting. What's the strat?

    Enter surging swarm, he’ll go for every intercept and you’ll never take a blocked hit, drop an sp2 while pd is active, and he gets wrecked. Lags used him on every rank 5 zemo last war season and I’ve taken him multiple times in battlegrounds in under 50 seconds

    Interesting, I usually take nimrod if I need a counter to domino and most other mutants, but I usually end up taking Fantman way more. I feel like he has more coverage outside the mutant class and he destroys bishop/havok

    I need to make the same decision also

    I went with Fantman. Nimrod is undeniably great but when I thought about who I would be more excited to have as a rank 5 the answer was Fantman. It’s a game so you have to go with who is the most fun at the end of the day. Especially when both options are great.

    Fantman is slow
    Nimrod just melts mutants
