The thing is all 3 of them benefit from high sig. Though I am curious who from the 3 is the most okay to leave at just sig 20.

Shocker is the answer, especially at a moderate sig. He’s the one with the most defensive potential, and he has the most range in terms of the types of matchups he can take.

Not reliant on his own buffs, not reliant on debuffs, and his charges don’t expire. Sweet champ all around.

I do agree but at the same time i think you dont need a cosmic for shocker, whereas if you took guardian without a cosmic, you'd get guardian trapped from the autoblock and tankiness on the crit damage resistance.

I'd definitely go Guardian myself though I'm inexperienced with Prowler

Dab_west

all of them are good but guardian is not very good for this gc meta and the next season one, and both shocker and prowler wont be good for next season gc

Guardian has a very strict rotation, while shocker at high sig handles a lot of problematic defender with flexible gameplay.

Shocker is also a better defender than guardian imo.

Prowler shouldn't even be in the poll.

@Dab_west yeah its more for overall. Btw thoughts on IMIW? Heard even CGR and Hulkling takes 60s against him if hes at r3

Yeah shocker handles more meta defenders than Guardian and has less likelihood to be hindered by the meta since Guardian needs a lot of things to be in play to work

I have a r3 prowler and compared to my r1 guardian?
Ehh
Let's just say they both finish after one damage rotation but guardian is a guaranteed finish and shocker still has a few hits to land after that Sp2. HE'S R3 BY THE WAY
He's unduped, he's decent I guess (would definitely rank down if given the opportunity)

Shocker doesn’t need super high sig (of course it helps) and is for sure better on defense than the other two.

i wouldnt r3 imiw but if u need a tech defender or something then sure

Don't get me wrong, I really enjoy Prowler,he was my 3rd r3, but Shocker is just such a dual threat, wish I had him as a 6 or 7.

I picked prowler to be different 👍
