That sp3 looks insane. Finally tech class gets an onslaught level champ / omega level threat. Cant wait for the stream tomorrow to see more.

How many of you are skipping the next Titan to save for him and Jean?

    Wait four more months in the hopes that I will pull one of two desired champs out of the entire pool? No thanks.

    Remember, Titan shards aren’t what they used to be. By the time we get to June they will be even more available than they are now. Silly to put your roster on ice for a third of the year because of a slim chance to pull a single champ.

    Yeah i agree with you, but you also will have more chances of getting said champs if you have some titans saved.

    what ive done in tbe past is look strictly at whos leaving the pool, like in the next one it will be mainly Nefaria and Enchantress from the ones worth chasing. So if i manage to pull those 2 , then everyone else like Rintrah and Scream will still be in the one with Bastion and Jean.

    We got Brainiac from Injustice in MCOC before Gta 6

    He’s a creator of sentinels, successor to Master Mold

    I realized that there's some kind of purple effect on Dust, kinda similar to Warlock's virus. So I'm guessing Bastion will have this ability as well?

    You and I are drawing entirely opposite conclusions.

    He is basically master mold reincarnated in a cyber-human body after the X-men threw MM through the siege perilous. Classic bonkers X-men origin story for anyone who’s interested:

    I'm kinda hoping he's a champion similar to Apocalypse and Galan where he can apply a pre-fight ability to other Tech champions. Been wanting one of those for a while now.

    He's a fusion of Master Mold AND Nimrod. And he created Prime Sentinels by outfitting humans with nano-technology, unbeknownst to them.

    So you'd have real people just enjoying their day (or not) and then suddenly turning into mutant-hunting Sentinels when near mutants or activated.

    Loved Operation: Zero Tolerance. Was a very fun 90's comic crossover.

    He seems really cool, it's sad that I only have 3/4 of a single Titan crystal right now

    I liked the X-Men 97 origin better (a fragment of Nimrod infecting a human which results in Bastion)

    Very cool block animation as well


    Wow teleportation as well? He might have an evade ability, or special dexterity.

    Finally a reliable Dust Counters, my Jack do wonders, but Bastion might do much more. Thought I would be more excited for Jean, but now I'm hyped for Bastion, my tech roster's really lacking right now

    All tech rosters are lacking. Compared to other classes besides skill at least.

    Tech is getting better, but we need more skill champs for sure. Hoping Mr Knight will a worthy Summoner's choice as well as a moon knight buff

    Hinging an entire class on a champ that won't come out until Aug/September is wild. Pray we get someone decent long before then.

    If Patriot buff is good then things may turn out well.

    people keep forgetting about War Machine. with good reason, but still…
    War Machine's prefights are temporary only. Galan, Shathra, and Apoc's prefights last the entire quest.

    Rhodey out here catching strays on Bastion’s thread. It’s a damn shame.

    Tech definitely used to be the worst class, but I think they’ve seriously turned it around. I’d argue they’re one of the stronger classes right now. Obviously above skill, I’d put them right in line with the others.
    Yeah, I'm really liking Zola, and if Bastion is god-tier, then I might have to start running collar tech again...
    But this game kinda punishes you for neglecting any class, so you can never over-invest in only some of them. You have to constantly keep your top roster balanced.

    Definitely better than skill, I'd say better than mutant as well. But science, mystic, and cosmic are all still far better. And it's not even close. That puts tech at 4th best imo. Meaning, it's lacking. Bastion and arnim help but there's still far too many holes and missing all rounders that the better classes have going for them.

    We need more tech generalists like Jack, techs that can counter stuff besides mutants. I am hoping Bastion can expand beyond the mutant class like Nimrod, Jack and Prowler can
