Guess now we'll have to entertain these arguments about whether he's top dog or not
At least the CCP vids were all of him post-nerf. However, the deep dive was all gameplay of him pre-nerf. So there's that.
The fight to prove why CGR is so good continues! 😂
The numbers did look toned down tbh but then again who knows what they ran in the deep dive (boosts, synergies, etc). All in all still amazing. I think it's more realistic now anyway.
Yes he has crazy damage, but so does Cull Obsidian and Proxima Midnight, but why aren’t they beyond god tier? A hint, damage alone doesn’t bestow BGT.
A thing I’ve noticed that the community always seems to miss is the burden that is any damage rotation cycle and how tight of a window kabam habitually designs them as if they’re only designed based on fights against super aggressive ais. If you look at most of the beyond god tier champions what makes them BGT is their utility, usually immunities, high damage and most important of all their simplicity in accessing their high damage.
From what I’ve seen CGR damage rotation looks great in ROL, but will be frustration when the ais don’t play along. They’ll either be too defense, their specials or mechanics will get in the way as well as the nodes and most annoying of all you’ll inevitably hit that break wall of an sp3. It’s hard to say if CGR will have that problem because it looks like they took these things into consideration when designing him, but until the players actually get their hands on him it’ll be hard to say.
There’s also a huge difference between Corvus and CGR and that’s ease of use. I’ll take building up charges over an annoying damage rotation cycle any day, but that may just be due to my ocd. I want to like him, but I just know the ais are going to screw me out of his precision judgement a majority of the time which will make rage. I will give props to Kabam for basically fixing everything they did wrong with Surfer. As complex as CGRs damage loop is I’ll put up with it easily over Lemon Surfers lol. The work definitely looks to be worth the effort and CGR has in my opinion some real utility and immunities.
Also why go with a Seatin vid lol, rarely does he play champions effectively especially when Karate Mike has this banger of a video that’s short and sweet to the point. A 30 min video come on... Not helping your case.

I did post that Karatemike vid somewhere else, it's really something.
I went with the Seatin vid because he posted first and it was 30 minutes long (extensive gameplay).
Lagacy's vids were great too .. drop him some likes poor lad went deep into the just abyss to get us some CGR action.
You know what I really didn't like about the nerf? The reduced duration on Cruelty & Precision from 15 seconds to 10 seconds.
His rotation was already complicated enough without them having to reduce the duration.
I'm hoping, sheer hoping it won't have a noticeable impact on his rotation.
Also I also don't agree with "first BGT of the year" and people didn't mention Guardian while correcting OP lol ? Guardian is still the best new champ released and I can write an essay on why he's beyond god tier
Also most fights are over with an SP1 --- SP2 rotation so he isn't really a long ramp-up champion
But I remember in the earlier gameplay videos they would take him up to 21 or 22 Force Field charges. I'm guessing you don't need that much.
I really want him too but no luck so far
I opened 3 how many have you opened? And did you pull Professor X?
Let me give you an example:
The collective intellect of the masses also perceived Doom to be a noodle until somebody with intellect figured out his rotation.
But yeah, still hunting for guardian.
Insane luck dude congrats
CGR has multiple rotations for both short, medium and long fights and his not being able to dex one time before sp2 gets offset by his super high block proff
Not to mention getting to an SP2 or SP3 is child's play with his power gain buff which is ridiculously potent when it's proced as the 3/4/5th judgment
