Would you still R5 Namor?

So I have a 5* namor at r4 that I was planning to use a mutant gem on and then 145 generic sig stones and 55 mutant ones to take up to sig 200. Then we heard about the rebalancing of namor. I have t2a expiring soon and am wondering if people are still ranking him up even with the looming rebalance. I could rankup Domino to r5 instead or take some other champs up to r4. i do also have an omega red at r5 sig 200 as well.

long and short, I would wait on namor and overall domino is probably just as good if not better
That being said, I used a variant 4-5 gem to take my max sig Namor to R5 only last month. Like you, I already had a sig200 5/65 OR, but decided to make the jump.
Since then, Namor has almost single handedly explored V2 for me, and was invaluable for several paths in my exploration of 6.1 and 6.2. Although I haven’t yet used him as extensively in 6.3, he made very short work of the 6.3 Nick Fury boss alongside OR. I feel like I’ve gotten a tremendous amount of use out of him, so much so that he’s paid back the worth of the 4-5 gem multiple times over since I ranked him up. With suicides, he also makes a decent pathrunner for questing and AW, saving me resources with his constant healing and ending problematic fights relatively quickly.
At the end of the day, you need to evaluate what exactly you’ll use him for, and how much value you’ll get back from the R5 rankup. He’s by no means as all-around versatile as OR (who is still my go-to damage dealer), and takes much longer to access his damage.
If you feel like OR already fills the same niche that Namor would, and you’re already quite uncertain about how his upcoming changes will affect him, I’d recommend waiting until we find out.
Shoot me a tag if you need, more than happy to answer any more questions.
