Since these champs are pretty similar - both Mutant, both benefit from high signature level, both have decent utility (Omega red benefits from bleeds and poison immune, Namor dishes back damage when attacking), both do really well suicide masteries - I thought I'd see which one the community prefers.

    I prefer (right now) Namor because of his sig ability and high damage output. But Omega has better synergies imo.

    I have both at r5, both are great, Omega Red is hands down better by a long shot. Theres very few fights namor can handle better then or.

    I have a 4/55 sig 200 Namor. I like him. But still wish I had a omega red. Way better synergy champ for sabretooth and others.

    Is ranking up OR still worth it if you are not running suicide masteries..?

    I'd say yes, but the fights are longer (you need to first get to SP2).

    Omega. Functionally Dual immune. Can allow for safe parries against foes that can shrug debuffs. Passive DOT is always very useful. His ability also allows some of his attacks not to make any contact.

    I don’t currently run suicides but have a R5 Namor. I have him for easy korg kills and fights that have irritating phases - found him quite useful on the V1 IMIW as his burst can basically one shot him. He’s also finding more use for me in 6.3 as the health pools actually make enduring his build up semi with it

    That being said, there’s too many sp3s Involved and they’re all painfully long. If I had a choice I’d use OR

    Using omega the player needs to be aggressive so as to maintain those spores.
    That's why namor is easier to use

    They're both awesome. Just tremendous characters. For me, it's just personal preference, which one feels more comfortable intercepting with

    For me, that's Namor. I love Omega Red and wrote a long post about him when he came out, but I can put in more work with Namor because I intercept better with him

    Have both at 5/65/200 and I only use namor if I see a korg on my path in war.

    Namor might loose those stacking fury or may b some % off from
    his sig ability,

    KT1 had a clip comparing these 2 champions quite thoroughly, you can refer to it to decide then.
