Next 5 Star to R4 | Advice

edited August 2020 in Strategy and Tips
I'm still fairly new to the game as I started playing in late March of this year (mostly because the quarantine had me bored out of my mind). My first 5* was Winter Soldier and I took him up pretty quick and before I realized that I may have better options later. I took Storm (Pyramid X) up to R4 next because I love playing her and at the time didn't have many other good options. I've had better luck lately and now I'm torn on who to take to R4 next. I'm leaning toward Hyperion, Colossus, Namor, or Elsa (my first 4* and really comfortable playing her). I know these threads are a dime a dozen but any advice from a community that is largely more experienced than me would be much appreciated.

Note : Warlock, Storm X, and Winter Soldier are currently R4 and CAIW is R5.

    I'd probably go magik. power contorl is super useful

    I would say Hyperion. He is super useful against anyone and can handle some tricky nodes easier than the others.

    Colossus. One of the best champs in the game with the easiest playstyle. Just parry-heavy till Sp2. Only hard to do on limber nodes.

    You really cant go wrong. Colossus, Elsa, Magik, Hype or Emma.

    I just noticed that Dragon Man down there too.....

    It’s between Colossus and Hyperion mostly.
    I would go Hyperion if I was in your position, since you already have a mutant at r4.
    It’s overall better to have more diversity in champion classes other than stacking in one 😉

    I've not invested too much in to Dragon Man him yet, but so far he's been really fun to play.

    Thanks! At one time, I was thinking Hype or Magik for that very reason.

    I actually got that Magik on accident. My last nexus was Quake, Ghost, and Magik. Some in my alliance told me to go for Quake so that was my plan, but I must have fat fingered it somehow smh. Maybe I'll try to be a little more patient (probs won't be able to tho) and see if I can dup one of them or wait for my first five star awakening gem.

    Thanks for the advice everyone. I bit the bullet and went with Hyperion.
