what is this node?
is it really cyclop or was it a joke?

    A long time ago kabam put out a “AW attackers” crystal deal where a sore thumb was Cyclops red. We knew it was to pad out the crystal so it’s not broken, but kabam Miike tried to say something like “Some of the most skilled players are able to use Redclops very effectively in AW”

    And thus the meme began.

    yeah, i remember that... it wasn't funny then, and not funny now...
    I'm still waiting for them to share the metric research supporting their claim "cyclop is the most effective champ in the game"

    Yeah, he said, "Our metrics show that many players use Cyclops VERY effectively in AQ." And Cyclops has hence forth been dubbed "The Most Effective Champion." lol

    I wonder if this node is for Redclops, Bluelops or both?
    Think it’s both, could be wrong. It’s at least the red one

    Like I said, it was just speaking-to-a-customer mumbo jumbo. They know he sucks. There is no metric
    im pretty sure when it was said he was used for the crit teams, so thats probably why

    Oh that’s true. The good ol Wolvie Mags Storm and redclops

    The other reason is that hackers get red clops from ROL then keep hacking with their 4-star. (This was a bigger deal in the old days, before power creep)

    In my alliance we tried both Cyclops. I have as 6* both. Brought red Cyclops to AQ. Man, it is the most effective tactic. I wish would had brough Mister Sinister, but also brought Red Mag and Colussus. I'm cruising all nodes like breeze.

    So does blue cyclops get the fury boost. Can somebody show a screenshot?

    After some disappointment of pulling red cyclops from a 6 star crystal on Black Friday, I’m finding him very enjoyable to use in AQ!

    It’s likely because only early players use him, and they use him for easier fights. So he wins a fairly high percentage of fights, making him effective. Cause who’s gonna bring cyclops for a hard fight where they’d lose?

    This is almost as bad as the requirements to become thronebreaker, i.e. we know u don't wanna rank up that 6* iron patriot but that's the only way u can become thronebreaker. So now it's well we know cyclops doesn't have alot of uses so let's make summoners rank him up anyway. I Mean come on kabam, if u want us to use trash champions, don't make them trash champs and don't use buffs to make a useless champs semi usable, buff the champ to make them use able in all events.

    I used my Red Cyclops on Map 6 today and was 10% away from the one shot on Invisible Woman lol ... I mean part of me couldn't believe it so my play wasn't optimum but I'll be bringing him back again to try him out more with better than trash play LOL

    It was a nice Fury boost.

    He was also part of the early perfect block team before they nerfed the leadership synergy. I can’t remember the third, just black bolt and red cyclops. He was the better of the three on that team. Lots of my old alliance mates who didn’t have the dr. Strange and SW back in the day used them to avoid block damage. Probably where the effective came from lol, play well and you wouldn’t lose any health.

    I’m glad they are giving him this buff, one of my favorite characters. Brought my duped 6* r1 to map 6, hopefully I’ll find a place to use him finally.

    I believe it's a play on Kabam Miike's forum name (K = Kabam, Meykeye (or whatever it is in the node) = Miike)
