Best Relic for Onslaught?

I'm wondering most the most effective relic would be for Onslaught?

I previously thought Mr Sinister because of inflicting that bleed debuff but I'm no longer sure that it's actually effective and actually more useful on others.

So what would you say is the most effective Relic to put on him, and what specifications for runes etc?

Alternatively I'm thinking that it actually doesn't matter and just throw whatever free 3* on him is fine...

Mr Sinister’s bleed provides some free healing for Onslaught

I run Mr Sinister. None of the others benefit him, but the sinister one does since it is free healing + it increases crits in general with the precision when bled.

More crits = Higher chance to apply neuroshock on basics and specials.

It’s just free regen

For BGs, Mr. Sinister works well because of the Willpower from the bleed, but personally, I use Gambit's. Since most of the hits from Onslaught's SP1 are physical, the Gambit relic lets me apply more neuroshocks if they are critical hits. This helps not only in BGs but also in general content.

I use Gambit only becouse as you say Mr. Sinister works better with others.

Sinister first, but mine is on Storm as the bleed gives prowess to her.

I use gambit currently as he also increases phys resistance, I find onslaught benefits from a block heavy play style, not necessarily to parry but to gain the distance to counter a heavy with your heavy.

Sinister relic is better on a lot other champs. Gambit relic benefits him since his sp1 is physical

I finally pulled the 5* sinister relic yday, how big is the dupe on it?

The Sinister relic isn't bad for Onslaught - but it's wasted on him, when others benefit far more.

Four seconds of free Willpower healing is not going to win many fights for you, with Onslaught.

On the other hand, the SP2 Attack boost it can give Domino whilst Lucky is huge. (For those who recommend the Gambit relic for her, you need to do the math: it adds nothing)

Similarly, four seconds of free Death Field for Omega Red can be fabulous, especially with the relic stun giving you a free Heavy attack.

Or a free Armour Up for Colossus (although unlike Domino, Colossus loves the Gambit relic...)

Or auto-generating Bleed Immunity for Apocalypse

Prowess for Storm

Outrage for Namor

Or even triggering Degen for Cable; in the unlikely event you're using him...

Edit: I voted doesn't matter - but reading the comments above mine, I'm going to start using the Gambit relic for him...
