Any Love for Viv?

So I suck at this invade meta and don't have like 90% of the nukes needed, but my desperation did at least make me resort to using Viv again, and I'm surprised she can still handle her own even against R4 mutants.
Most of these nodes also can't take away her parry and she's also a decent Zola counter in a pinch.
So do we think we'll see her as a 7* anytime soon? I think a 7R3 or 7R4 sig 200 Viv would be a very scary thing.
My hope is that because she's not really that popular we can get the 7* from more modest sources, like the Titan or even a calendar perhaps.

    I think there are a few early 2023 champions that never got to shine properly since they didn't have the time to establish themselves before the 7*s came out shortly afterwards. Champs like Viv and Cassie Lang. There are some other champs from that time period that are also missing as 7*s, although probably for different reasons - Kate Bishop, Abs Man and Baron Zemo, who all seem to have surprised Kabam by just how good they were.

    Both of these groups of early 2023 no-shows mean that there's this weird gap in the 7* pool. That has always annoyed me and I would love for more of those missing champs to come out as 7* champs. I think Viv would make an excellent 7* champ.

    I'm a big fan of Viv; and yes, she smashes the Invade meta and is great for a variety of champs with non-contact attacks you might not want to parry. As you say, she can handle Zola in a punch; and Onslaught, too.

    I'm not the best player, so she's about the only champion I ever use where I get the coveted 'No damage taken' result at the end.

    Me big fans, viv is monster against mutants. I once livestream friendly battleground, using Viv against Domino, and people who saw my livestream mock me and saying why use Viv, that she only for def. Then i show them the true power of Viv, and they amazed

    Viv is literally so OP with that parry phase mechanic man. Insta r3 if she came to the titan no second thoughts.

    Her damage is also pretty good.

    I wish she was a 7*

    She also inflicts plasma against muties so she can work against most muties fine.
