Tips on how to use Magik?

Avetrex2

I have recently gotten a 4* Magik and know she is good, but how do you use her properly? I could use some pointers.

Limbo is your best friend when using Magik, I think awakening her would make her even better

This With using sp2 nonstop they will basically be perma power locked and you can play as aggressive as you want.

Also against champs who have lots of buffs active at once (i.e. Groot, War machine)
Her sp3 will destroy them

She is one of the best power control champs. S2 power locks them and if you play aggressively enough you can keep them power locked.
SP1 nullifies which is nice for regen champs.
Awakened she gets limbo every power bar which damages the enemy and heals any dmg taken while in limbo.
Awakened she’s a pretty good war defender too

Ok thank you, I hope I can use her properly!

If and when you can afford it, dump mastery points in Mystic Dispersion to accumulate power more quickly when fighting champs that have a debuff. If and when you dupe her you can use her for AW defense as well. She’s great both in attack and defense.

I have an R4 5* Magik with 142 sig.

Check out some videos on YouTube. Normally just powerlock and keep your opponent pinned to the corner.

She's trash, sell her. I'll trade you a Jane Foster, she has a hammer.

Magik has a flaming sword, who cares about a hammer then?

Her biggest asset even un-awakened is her reliability.
She hits hard and crits often
L1 always nullifies. Great for removing that regen or Armor up or whatever.
L2 always power drains and power locks and often double crits for huge damage
L3 does lots of damage when they have a lot of buffs

I usually get set for L2 first, then L1, then L2, then L1 etc.
Unless they have power gain boost then L2, L2, L2.
If they are Groot or War Machine L3, done.

You get Awakened and you get regen back and deliver even more energy damage over time.

FYI - Her specials recover dmg lost from Yellow Jacket sting. That's why limbo pops for a second with every special activation! Her special also don;t add to enemy power gain I believe.

Only use her when awakened if you have a good roster. Best against Hyperion, really good defender. In general a very well built champion.

This is pretty much all u need to know. She was my 1st r5 and no regrets here (do get some mastery points in MD and she can fire off chained L3s (nullify enough buffs to give you full 3 bars of power) although it might not be completely recommended because the buffs will be gone along with the crazy damage increase. It is great for Evolution trial

Hey everyone!

Thank you so much for sharing your insight when it comes to Magik, nearly everything we would have said is already right here!

From personal experience, I have my 5* Magik at Rank 3 and she's done me a world of good. As mentioned, if you're patient enough to get to an SP2, the fight's nearly won as long as it lands.

SP2 will steal Power, as well as inflict Power Lock, which means that you're already part of the way toward getting your next SP2 launched. Eventually, you can get your opponent stuck on zero Power and continually lock them until they fall.

SP1 is especially useful for Champions who have high regenerative abilities, such as Doctor Voodoo's initial healing burst, as well as Iron Man's Overload.

I also personally recommend Mystic Dispersion if you don't already have it, as this means you don't take as much of a risk in building Power through striking.

Thank you again for your fantastic insights and advice, everyone!

Magik. A God tier defender. You wanna see the salt from me? Put Magik as the boss. Limbo is like "What? You about killed me with that SP3? You activated it as soon as I started? SYCHE! REGEN FROM THE PITS OF FIRE!" and then I die.
Limbo destroys all.
