Skill R3 Gem Help

Been sitting on this gem for a while. Somehow only have three skill 7* out of 65 or so 7*.

Killmonger sig 20
Hawkeye
Jabari

Basically KM or hold?

That is correct, either KM or hold

MrSakuragi

Would you hold?

Maratox

Awakened killmonger is good for BGs defense. I’d say he’s worth R3 now

ItsClobberinTime

If I was already Valiant yes until I got a few more sigs on KM, if I wasn't Valiant however I would pop it on KM. The amount of rewards and resources you get when you become Valiant, massive game changer.

MrSakuragi

👍 I’m valiant, would be my 7th r3.

ItsClobberinTime

Then I would personally hold it. Reason being if they don't have a counter KM will get you the win regardless of rank, if they do have a counter like Guardian or CGR they will get the win regardless of KM's rank. I think r2 is fine at the moment

Hold. I'm still holding my generic because it'll be rare for a while.

I r3d Shang chi only to get valiant.

I took up s20 km to r3, it was my valiant rankup though. I definitely like him at r3, he eats a lot of bans and gets a lot of wins, even when they use Cgr which surprises the absolute hell out of me lol.

I think it just depends on how picky you’d like to be with your r3s. He’s a very solid skill r3, not the best, but a good one. If that reaches your standard for r3 worthy, then go ahead and rank him. If not, you can hold. Win-win either way.

I personally would wait. I agree that I’d rank 3 killmonger to get valiant, but since he’d be your 7th rank 3, I’d wait. There are better options and it’s just not worth the gem since they’re still rare.

TikkaMasala

I agree with everyone above. If it was to become valiant I’d pull the trigger but since you’re already valiant, hold off still for a better option.

Killmonger or wait for Bullseye, Shang, Mantis, etc

ItsClobberinTime

Not denying he's a strong defender at r3 but if someone is losing with CGR that's definitely skill issue lol r6 CGR eats KM for breakfast

Emilia90

There are very few champs in the game that CGR doesn’t eat for breakfast lmao. He cooks everything from photon to bullseye in 30 seconds 😭

EdisonLaw

there are very few champs CGR cannot nuke

ItsClobberinTime

I know lmao I just r5 mine with the gem from Incursions cause I've been procrastinating for way too long and I'm tired of banning him.

ItsClobberinTime

Hence me saying it's a skill issue if someone is losing against KM with him.

EdisonLaw

I thought you were saying it’s a skill issue if the opponent beats Killmonger with CGR first

ItsClobberinTime

Oh nah, I was replying to someone who said people lose against his r3 KM even with CGR, definitely a skill issue on your part if you lose against KM with CGR. Even at r3 the initial permanent armor break shuts him down completely

EdisonLaw

Just ban CGR

ItsClobberinTime

No, he's saying his KM gets him kills even when the opponent drafts CGR. I'm saying CGR can nuke KM and if his KM is getting him kills against CGR it's a skill issue and it's on the person using CGR.

Nemesis_17

That’s why I said it surprises the absolute hell out of me lmao I don’t understand how they mess up that fight. Vt meta too not even gc, I climbed slowly to avoid gc as much as I could lol

Nemesis_17

My Cgr is fully maxed out too so I’d prefer to just keep him. I just usually won’t place km if they have Cgr but sometimes I do anyway and it has been working surprisingly well lols

ItsClobberinTime

That is definitely mind blowing lol that fight is very easy, then again I win against people who draft seven r3s when I barely have three consistently so it's definitely possible

Ben_15455

Hold it
