7* Rank 2 gem

heya! i need advice about whom to rank up, out of this pool of champs (who are all fantastic in their own right, may i add)

should i save it till the joaquin torres buff or use it immediately?

it's a generic gem, ofc, and pls keep in mind that
1. i am a casual player
2. i have completed act 8, just need one more 7 star at rank three to get valiant
3. my heart says stryfe, but idk how much ill use him in story content and event quests

You have many options far superior to Stryfe, so, unless you love that champ, you should really go with Spider-Woman, Hulk, Shuri, Crossbones, etc

Your heart is very wrong

Beerus2Strong

Hulk, Spider woman, Venompool (people sleep on him)

Super_Cretu90

Top choices:

1.Spiderwoman

2.Hulk

3.Shuri

4.Crossbones is also a good option, but his rotation is very risky.

Second options:

White Magneto
Sersi is a hard hitter with regeneration, glance, power gain, true sense etc.
Colossus/Omega Sentinel are utility monsters
Venompool is also an option and very underrated.

TheMostHated1

Definitely not stryfe

Anything other than Spider Woman here is wrong.

Zeraphan

SW would be my first choice as she currently plays.

I wish I had Colossus, so many times his utility would have been amazing to have.

I recently got Shuri and she has put in a lot of work already.

i do love stryfe! that's why my heart calls out to him. damage monster, though his utility is dubious, at best

thank you, and everyone else who contributed to this thread! although, i gotta ask, i love spider woman to death, but should i wait till her nerf is implemented? i realise her nerf has been tweaked, but im still unsure about whether i should rank her up or not. not to sound like a broken record, but falcon is also gonna be buffed next year, and idk if i should wait till then.

and, yes, venompool is immensely underrated! he's a character i use a lot, as strange as that may sound so some. i love shuri as well, but i simply have far too many fantastic options to choose from.

colossus is fantastic, no doubt, but i already have professor x at rank 2 and i would prefer more diversity with regards to classes. i should've mentioned this in the thread, im sorry i didn't. im also holding off on colossus cuz he's fantastic, but idk if ill be able to use him when he's devoid of his awakened ability and a few key synergies.
