  R5 Venom and Medusa now

  Corvus has so many counters in AW and with the upcoming Ebony Maw buff it will only get worse. Medusa and Venom have the most utility.

  R5 Corvus now and wait to R5 Medusa

  My first R5 was Corvus a couple of months ago and I don’t regret it. I use it always in wars with Proxima Midnight synergy so evade and autoblock is never a problem. The only counter is Maw but you have to be very unlucky to find Maw. The buff coming for Him (according to Kabam) will rebalance him attacking, not defending so that won’t be an issue. I know that many people become so Corvus depending lastly but thanks to him At R5 I become a Cavallier with very few units

  Venom is worth r5 imo and corvus is really good too. Medusa needs to be able to deal debuffs and gain buffs

  Venom is absolutely worth the r5, he's great as both an attacker and a defender. Great utility and fits in all questing teams.

  That is not correct:

  Ebony Maw:
  
  You said it and we saw it in the data. Although Ebony Maw is a decent Defender, he is underperforming as an Attacker (the designer said something about his Degeneration DPS being just sad and wrong).
  
  We are looking to boost both his defensive and offensive potential, but with an emphasis on offense.

  Ebony Maw is already pretty good defender, if he gets even better his popularity will skyrocket, certainly on hidden nodes. And don't forget how Mr. Sinister is practically invulnerable to Corvus.
  
  PS And Colossus will be a pain for guaranteed crit champions as well.

  Yeah I ran into Ebony in event quest with Ghost and didn't know why all of my hits missed. Took me a while to realize that little fun fact. had to finish him off with a L3.
