Ok to start I did some rank ups etc.
Heres my team
6* r2 Unduped Doom
6* r2 Unduped Torch
5* r5 sig 110 ish Ægon
5* r5 sig 200 Void
5* r5 sig 50 Sparky
So im waiting for 21th when gifting drops then on 22th ill start my run.
Would this stash be ok?
No items in Stash. Only 750 units and 4300 ish units on mini and 600 on other 1.
Does the collector have Unblockable Specials like 5.2.6? And any other general help would be nice. I Dont run MD so thats why im using doom for Cosmics.

As a general advice, you should make a list of all the fights you'll face on the path, and plan out exactly who you'll be using for each fight. The remaining slots should be filled with synergy champs (e.g. Nick fury+quake, Heimdall, etc), even low level ones.
Torch and Aegon for sure. Bring another mystic in addition to doom instead of sparky.
You can bring Void, but the only thing I'd expect you to use him for is HTD heal reversal. I'd probably go Heimdal instead.
Collector does not have unblockable specials, I'd watch some vids on how to dex the SP2, its not that bad once you get the hang of it.
I have the same question about Sparky. Can’t think of any fights he’d take that Aegon isn’t better for. Maybe bring a synergy champ like Heimdall in that last spot? Aegon, Doom, and Torch/Void will cover everything else.
Also this isn’t relevant for your first path but anybody saying Nick Fury is a good Green Goblin counter is extremely wrong, do not listen.
I fought dorm with dex off, forgot to turn it back on, and promptly lost HT prefight. Granted it was an R3 unduped Torch, but it cost me a total of 4 revives to down Mephisto.
Quite frankly, unless you do something silly like I did, Mephisto is so easy with HT that you shouldn't be worried about losing prefight anyway.
Also, unless Green Goblin has changed since I ran Abyss, NF is a perfectly good counter.
I used Aegon 5/65s120, Void 5/65s80, SymSupreme 2/35s0, Hit Monkey 5/65s20, Magneto 2/35s0
Aegon and Sym for the usuals.
Void can 2 shot Mephisto. He one shots joe fixit and Howard the duck. He’s handy for the last 15% of IMIW. (I one shot with Magneto) I used Hit Monkey on Mordo (assassin’s cunning shut him down) so he wasn’t needed there, and I did the petrify lockout method on cyclops until void died then finished him the parry/dex way with Aegon from about 40%, then like I said, changed back to suicides at IW, and that was it. Nuked her, Nuked Cull until Sym died, finished him with Aegon, then Collector was standard.
20 stashed revives, 50ish L3 pots, and a bit less than three thousand units. I played like a slob too, and could have done it in way less.
You can do it. Watch some videos on the fights if you aren’t sure about them. Good luck. It’s not that bad, just an endurance run.
Looking back, I wish I’d have used magneto to one shot another fight or two.
Did not regret not bringing heimdall, he doesn’t save as many units as you’d think anyway.
I would’ve been much happier bringing in a heavy hitting armor break champ like CMM or Cull for that Green Goblin. I got him down, but it was the most revive-intensive fight on the path
paths 1 and 3 sym over doom
