Saga incursions tips?

I tried combos of SW, JG, Void, bastion, infamous iron man.
I can never seem to get pass round 6-7.

YouTubers got some tips, but champ choice doesn't help that much. (They also don't mention how many revives they use)

Any advice on technique or champs?

Sw destroys it with power stings

Aegon is amazing and can be done with a 4*, so 6* is obviously better.

If you have him and can keep a combo, then I'd suggest him, Jean (handle miss and Strfye), and Spiderwoman. Aegon can stun lock using a variety of methods.

For your hacks on the first node, I'd suggest mutually assured destruction (heal on specials), and second chance. These two work together nicely because once you die, second chance kicks in. Just let them wait on you, build to a special, and then fire the special before second chance is done. It will heal you back up, cause massive damage, and most likely KO the opponent. You then have some HP left to repeat the process until you can heal back up fully.

And honestly, most YouTubers use probably 0 revives which is why it isn't mentioned. I've only used 1 revive on carries, and one team revive and one single revive on a 4* run.

I think your comment that champ choice doesn’t help that much is maybe indicative of what you’re struggling with. Good champ choice and team comp is vital in a long incursions run with a lot of inherent RNG and basically every potential RPG threat in the game. You shouldn’t be just throwing together a team of 3 good champs and hoping for the best, you should have some outline of what each team slot is doing and what roadblocks they break. Just as an example, here was my run squad and my rough thought process:

• Leader: sustainable carry with Toxic Siphon Regen and his great bulk, great threat coverage against Regen, Power Gain, Unblockable, and Purify/Cleanse (the last one being especially useful with so many good hacks involving Debuff spam). Synergizes well with a number of said Debuff hacks.

• Zemo: Further coverage against Purify. Cleanse + Resistance up + Disorient is good enough to handle most of the percentage-based DoT nodes you’ll come across. Benefits from a lot of the same Debuff hacks as Leader. Capable of good hit damage, which is a nice complement to Leader who is very reliant on being able to dish out DoT damage to be effective. Also deals with Unstoppable and Evade, two common annoyances in Incursions that Leader can’t really handle.

• Zola: Very useful synergy with Zemo. Good power control option for non-Ability Power Gain matchups Leader can’t touch. A proper Bleed Immunity helps in a lot of fights. His ability to build combo quickly with Heavy spam means he plays nicely with a number of hit-based hacks that Zemo and Leader enjoy such as Fury Burst and that Armor Break hack I can’t remember the name of. Also very good for the Stryfe boss and other Mutants that Leader and especially Zemo might struggle with otherwise.

This isn’t comprehensive, and an actual run still involves a lot of improvisation around what hacks you’ll roll and what fights you get, but it outlines the idea that you should have a basic plan. I tried to cover as many RPG threats as possible, and had an idea of what hacks I was looking to abuse. My example squad forwent a big “cheese” option for more reliable coverage (although Zemo could get pretty cheesy with Hemostatic Charge), but if you do want to do so you should still be focusing on covering the holes your cheese strat can’t solo. Always count on Murphy’s Law coming into play, and build your team and hacks to mitigate the worst-case scenarios.

Aegon. Also try to go for regen hacks. There's one where all special attacks heal you, the bigger the damage the more regen (check out Shang-Chis regen with an sp2).

Arnim Zola gets full health regen with special 3 every fight

It’s a cheat code

Not really. It will take forever after the second use., and honestly, after the first use, you'll probably finish a fight before you regen back to full health. There are way better cheat codes out there [like second chance with sabretooth].

Gain a Self-Repair Passive healing 100% of Zola’s missing Health over 20 seconds. This Self-Repair is lost if Zola is Stunned.
For each time this Special Attack has been used previously in the Quest, these effects’ base durations are tripled. Zola’s anti-exponential algorithms won’t let this increase more than 3 times.

Used SW with defensive cascade and armour burst for the majority of my fights (pretty sure thats what they're called) and was lucky enough to get the 50% stun boost early on. Jean grey and isophene for the other 2 members (iso purely bcus on my first run i ran into a nasty medusa boss on my first run who picked up all my champs and stuck them in the bin so i needed someone who could shut her down if i ran into her again) and jean shuts down a lot of annoying nodes and i aint good with reverse controls if they turn up. Everytime there was a power sting boost or a fury boost i grabbed them and by zone 7-8 SW was almost unstoppable the rest were filled up with regen hacks/boosts and didnt need to change my team as i got pretty good rng for once. Im at the lower end of mid tier when it comes to game skill so used around 5-6 revs but didnt need any units as when ever certain crystals give out incursion rev i always grab them for saga events (the weekly reunion crystals for example). Just a tip to help with future events as they're such a unit saver when u know ur gonna need a few revs bcus i always do without fail. Gl, hope u get there.
