If so, who was the champion and why did you do it?

I’m seriously considering taking Starlord to Rank 5 even though I know he’s not even a Top 5 Tech champ anymore.

    I would totally just rank up champs I love if I could afford to. I know some will say, "Do it anyways, this game is supposed to be fun, after all!" But ranking up champs I need for content is fun, because getting through content is what's fun for me in this game. If I get to a point where I have expiring resources though, Spider-Gwen is totally going to R5.

    Spider Gwen isn't bad though

    Got Longshot on my 3rd 6 Star and duped him as my 6th 6 Star. He was Rank 2 a week later over Thing, Sorcerer Supreme, Corvus, and Hyperion

    This starts to be the common for me, as I need to spend T5 catalysts or else they will expire. Always have those expiring for some reason.

    But of course, Ebony Maw wasn't a guilty rank up. He just deserved it, the best champion in the game

    Lol, I agree he is the best!

    Technically I guess? I don’t really have many r5 champs, but I’ve prioritized champs I like over smart rank-ups. For example, I took up Spider-Gwen over Corvus and Ghost, and the only reason I eventually ended up with a r5 Corvus is because I had too many Cosmic t4cc. Granted, it’s not like she’s a bad option, but I still consider her to be slightly questionable r5 decision just because she’s not really top tier in comparison.

    Still, I have zero regrets, 10/10 would recommend.

    3stars are what I max out for no reason other than just liking a champ.

    4,5,6 stars I am more strategic with my rank ups. i R2’d my 6star venom when I probably should have used those resources to R5 a 5star, but, it’s venom so I get good use from him.

    A few come to mind, 6/2 dragon man, 5/65 Wolvie and I guess Ronin since I don’t “need” him. But not really since he was my 1st r5.

    im considering taking groot to 4/55. that spicy regen and over 50 damage per hit is gonna melt fights so much faster.

    My two favorite champs nick and sorcerer supreme don't really come under the ranks of a pleasure rank up , so I guess my answer is no

    Though I'm not guilty for any of my rank ups. I love using Bishop and Spider Gwen.

    Absolutely, rank 5'd my sig 80 5* Terrax because I love the play style, and I get a decent amount of use out of him in cavalier/uncollected monthly, plus he makes a decent defender

    My only R5 was a kind of guilty pleasure, Ægon. I don’t use him very often and I had champions that arguably needed it more (archangel, Warlock etc) but I’d just done a lot of LOL and just needed to see how high I could make the numbers go. Fully ramped up and boosted its around 80k heavies, 92k L2s and add on a spicy 90k bleed to that as well (no deep wounds or suicides)

    I keep in the bank enough for an r2 6* rankup in case I pull one of the last few game changers I need, then when I have enough for a second I use it with whoever I want and don’t feel bad, my last two rankups have just been utility, iwim for evade champs and havok for easy korg killing, guess I have enough r5 equivalent now that it la not that big a deal (22 and resources for 2 more) deciding between cmm, gulk, stealthy, or Origins widow next

    I’ve had r5 OML for some time, he was my first 5* on that acc and we’ve cleared a lot of content together. Use him all the time, questing, aq/aw, incursions. Next ones will be r2 6* IMIW for attack and r5 Elsa. Maybe they’re not average enough to count as guilty pleasures but I like using them so....

    Every rank 5 or rank 2 (all 2 of them 😂) I have are champs I like to use, have fun playing with.
    Don’t care nor bother to check if they fall in some sort of beyond lucifer’s tier categorie.

    Not exactly dirty pleasures, but I have a r5 5* Voodoo which have served me in almost all areas of the game.
    My 6* r2 Masacre and Strange are definitely my guilty pleasure rankups though. Love them both

    everytime i get a 4-5 gem from variant, i do somewhat of a guilty pleasure rankup where it would be ideal to do someone else but i just say f it and pop it on a fun champ, not that theyre bad champs just wouldnt have done it otherwise
    here they are (in order of which variant i did first)
    v4 - emma frost
    v3 - dormammu
    v5 - sparky

    When I take champs to R5 or R2 I do it because they serve a specific purpose. I’m not rich enough in resources to take Civil Warrior to R2 quite yet.

    Right now I don't have that many but I have 2 r5's( Sabretooth, Mysterio) and 2 will be r5 in the future( Night Trasher, Hood) and some I haven't started on them yet( Ronin, Masacre). I also want to take to rank 5 Sentry, Dormammu, Nebula, Vulture, Ultron AoL, Crossbones and BPCW.

    I couldn’t find the odd r2 post but I find this.

    Did this today.
