Personally, I think he’s another underrated champ that is often overlooked by many. Plus he was one of the champs featured in the 7 Star legends celebration selector.

    I have an awakened 7*, but I hear he needs something like sig 100 to really be viable, whereas Falcon needs about sig 60.

    I have Shuri at r3 and Shocker at r2, so I really don’t see him going to r2 anytime soon, even if he is the only current of my r1 Techs with shiny stars.

    He’s meh. You have to run a synergy team to make him relevant.

    Techs really are in a competition for sig stones aren’t they? Nearly every tech champion in the game benefits from the awakened ability. Darkhawk, Viv Vision, Fantman, Vision (AOU and classic), etc.

    I chose him as the 7 Star. He’s really fun - but I must be honest. I rarely use him. Lol

    They really are. Don't forget iDoom, Nimrod, Lady D., OG Iron Man now. Shuri at least gets a huge benefit from just the initial awakening

    Also Ultron, Warlock for defense, Star Lord if someone still wants to use him, and the list can go on Tech champs that benefit a lot from awakening and high sig 😉

    I'm very impressed @BitterSteel that you took him to 7R3 unduped! But I'm very glad to see he is working so well in war.

    I'm also glad to see a 7R2 Odin in your team (mine is 7R3 since yesterday - unduped).

    Yeah it’s definitely not the most common choice! I had a tech 2-3 from Necro and no other options I was excited for, I also had already used my generic on Chee’ilth and I wanted to become Valiant before the cut off for the holiday calendar so I went for Sam since he was attack tactic and SSX are pushing this season - and Sam is pretty cool! (Been an absolute MVP on defence in BGs, I’ve only lost one round with him so far - and that was against a werewolf…)

    Sorry to disappoint on Odin, he was just there for pre fights. I haven’t been able to use him in war yet, but hopefully one day in the future! He’s fun

    Alright guys, I just pulled the 6 star Cap Sam.


    But I also have the 5 star who is already duped.


    Which one to invest in?

    Ok, so since the new Captain America movie should be out soon and that we are getting a free Sam Wilson, I believe that this would be the best time to revisit this thread. Thoughts on him currently?

    he's a good and safe option for a lot of matches ive seen people drop him into war, i wish he got a value buff with his movie cz he really doesnt need much other than more consistent armors ups and a bit extra damage

    You really can never say a single word to anyone that necros a post. You are the chief culprit.
    They necro irrelevant posts that are 5+ years old, you probably noticed thar I didn’t criticise anyone who bumped my posts or any relevant posts

    In my opinion he has such an amazing display of utility, although in the damage department he really needs some help. Something that really bothers me it's that the whole Champ Rebalancing Program started a month after him. I don't remember if it was delayed and both him and Misty suffered that choice but I really hope Kabam decides to bump those numbers now that the movie it's coming out.

    Just wanted to give my opinion since I finally duped my 7* and will R3 him asp

    Which matchups or nodes do you like him for? I have a natural sig 100 that I never touch because I can’t figure out what he’s good for.
