Let’s settle this once and for all. I would make a poll, but people are going to have so many different opinions that there are so many good options. So my list has come down down to these: Havok, IMIW, Korg, Magik, Nightcrawler, Omega, Doom, Hyperion, Awakened NF, and M.O.D.O.K. Any thoughts?

    all depends on the defense tactic BUT if you're in a tier without them, i'd say Korg

    Yea I mean regardless of node or defense tactic or what champs you have to counter them. Just the best raw defender

    My bane used to be stun immune modok, but I have Nick now, so...

    Imo it’s annihilus. Just so ridiculously annoying.

    He is really annoying. The unstoppable and the not being able to parry is not very fun. If you have willpower, the obliterate will just heal you for days

    I thought he only counters evade? Does he also have an auto-block counter?

    Nick inflicts bleed when he hits into autoblock and is also stun immune hitting into autoblock.

    Unblockable at 15+ charges, and can be kept throughout the fight. No a sliver of worry about autoblock. Just have your SP 1 dexes on point lol

    imo Annihilus, he's just so annoying to fight

    All of the other "hard" defenders I can counter relatively well but Annihilus is always just so annoying to fight

    I cannot fight Korg at all. Annihilus is actually kinda fun for me to fight

    You need a sorcerer supreme sent your way, my dude. You'll pray to get annihilus with her.

    So far, the best AW defender is Kabam servers.

    And freezing issues 😜

    Anyone I can’t fight with Quake, Venom, Warlock or Doom

    Hate both Korg and NF the most, though my recent 6* Namor kinda mitigates both problems, especially if I manage to wake him up soon.

    Pretty surprised Thing isn't on the list.

    Where is Domino, Invisible Woman or Annihilus?
    According to Kabam aw stats these were top tier defenders, at least till recently.

    Domino isn’t the worst, and is only good awakened. Invisible woman isn’t that hard. Annihilate can be easily countered if you have skill, and can even benefit you if you have willpower

    You’re right, I totally forgot about thing. Maybe the best defender in the game

    Annihilus is the only one I have a problem with. I can seriously dodge dooms sp2 and korg sp1 100% of the time but annihilus is just such a pain.

    Annihilus is definitely annoying, but any nullify champ just turns of his cosmic rod ability and shuts him down.
    True, I actually do like using Sym Supreme vs Annihilus, it's just his wonky L1, unstoppable, and L2 that make him annoying for me, and that you sometimes can't parry him.

    Korg, IMIW, Domino, Ebony Maw, Modok, Havok, and Annihilus..can't stand battling them! Especially on certain nodes.

    unrelated side note, did you know if you fire off MODOK’s sp1 while Nick is regenerating all of his health you’ll kill him?
    Yup. That's why I "die" to modok by purposely eating a heavy attack and letting the incinerates tick the health off while modok isn't at a bar of power. Another reason why is because it gives Nick 17 charges after the 2 level 1, and if you mistime a special 1 evade from modok, you'll be up to 19 instead of losing the charges altogether.
