Medusa or Aarkus rankup?

I don’t have a gem but whenever I get a cosmic one it could go to either of the armor shatters (not a Corvus fan, but that’s not the point of this discussion)



By the way, can Aarkus have 100% uptime on armor shatter without too much difficulty? That’s the main pull for me.

    it’s not 100% uptime, but by the time it’s gone If you’ve played him right the opponent is almost dead

    I think her amor shatter is better and she's a slightly better champ but aarkus is really cool and useful

    Aarkus is a top 5 cosmic champ imo. Okay well, venom probably beats him because of variants.

    My guy can counter evade with zero stress. Mix master, mesmerize, and basically every pesky evader is absolutely nothing as long as you can get one or more armor break on the opponent which is provided through proximity. Emma frost, killmonger are jokes in the presence of Aarkus. He's the best G99 (and other robots either way) counter hands down just behind Mags (argument could be made for Medusa, but there's some scenarios where Aarkus takes the cake). Also, the lower drain resistance makes him insanely good for that node where you get power drained.

    Plus, he can do both diss track and buffed up very easily. Guy was my MVP for 7.1 completion as a rank 2 6*

    I have medusa rank 4 she is nice but she cannot overtake my 4 star rank 5 aarkus. Aarkus can bypass evades, shut down robots and dosent rely on bleeds for insane damage. His power gain competes with hyperion's power gain.

    Plus he's actually usable in abyss.

    Let me tell you one thing boy ..Never sleep on Aarkus ..there are few champs whom I don't care if they aren't beyond galactus inifinity tier and Aarkus is 1 of them ..apart from the qualities mentioned above by my brothers , his armor shatter is longer than Medusa ..Medusa has for 45 seconds and Aarkus for 52 seconds ..also coldsnap counters evade which is a nice punch .. Definitely better than Medusa ..
