    In middle-long fights (30-50 hits), you can't use special attacks because you need to save your power for the SP3. That's for me the largest drawback, as it forces you to not rank-up G2099, as you will KO your opponent too fast.

    Her special attacks aren't needed, so I don't see how thats a drawback. If you play her right you shouldn't need special attacks at all as they really don't do much damage. She's not ghost or hyperion, they really don't do much except for some niche scenarios where the sp1 power drain is useful which doesn't happen much.
    Power control is still one of the best utility in the game. If you're an expert at dexing and baiting specials with a success rate of 99.99%, sure power control is irrelevant. For the playerbase who aren't, it is very useful.

    PS SP2 is best way to build-up your combo meter, you should know that if you play G2099.

    Mine is staying at 100 for a while, hoping for a guardian
    That was me, he never came. I decided to screw it and go ahead to max sig her.

    As a Suicide user, I‘m fine using nothing else than SP 3 to avoid Recoil damage. And if you need the other ones, you can still rely on her Self Repair.

    Definitely underrated, in my opinion she's the most disrespected Beyond God Tier Champion,, no other champion in that tier gets disrespected like she does, I'm tired of trying to change people's mind, if you feel she is trash, good for you, but for me I have a 6* r2 that's going to r3 in the future. Cheers.

    If you're BGT, how are you disrespected? Just wondering because underrated champs would be below BGT. My opinion though
    Have you seen rankup threads with both Ghost and Doom recently?

    Ghost and Doom are at the Top of their classes, but G2099 is being compared to as the entire Beyond God tier class. I don't see Ghost, Doom, Quake underrated, or any other BGT underrated besides maybe Guardian (If some want to compare)
    That's not what I mean. I'm talking about this concept of "disrespect" not being exclusive to G99, especially when I see majority choosing Doom over Ghost in rank-up polls or similar threads.

    I wouldn’t call her underrated since most people agree she’s god tier but I’ve seen some people sleep on her, definitely more than other beyond god tiers. But the amount of god damn times I was one off a 6 star Guilly 2099 in the cavs makes me cry
  • YENANSASHESYENANSASHES Posts: 252 ★★
    bro great writeup, but you really dont need to go over her abilities like explaining what her functions are etc. because most people should know. u could spend less time explaining what her kit is and spend more time explaining where it can be used and why it is important.

    Just because they both need high combos doesn’t mean they are the same. Both have extremely different abilities that scale with combo.

    I have seen this mentioned quite often. But in terms of application, isn't Aegon more useful?
    Aegon works for Abyss (G2099 doesn't), both work for Labyrinth, and both work for Act 6 exploration.

    There are some specific nodes that G2099 can do that Aegon can't, and vice versa (Eg. things that need no crit, things that need tenacity, etc), but that is looking more at niche fights.

    So based on the content we have now, if you pull both Aegon and G2099 as combo meter champions, isn't Aegon the better pick as he covers more?

    G2099 is far far better in AW than aegon. But other than that I agree aegon is much better overall in terms of the content he shreds thorough
    I guess, but don't you face the same problem: not being able to get 100 combo meter?

    I say this frequently, unless in a long fight you don't need to bank combos, just fight normally, AQ and AW are short, so you don't need to bank until the final boss.
    I use my G99 in AQ all the time and I never bank her combos until the final boss, @Kill_Grey can testify to that

    THIS IS YOUR FAULT @Rouger4 🤣🤣🤣😉


    What are the odds though... The RNGod wants to prove me wrong. I only need Ghost to have all beyond god tier tech champions as a 6*.

    She's saved me so many pots in AQ with her regen. 1 Lvl 1 revive and boom she's good to go.
