Utility or Damage?

Would you rather have someone like Rocket, with decent damage but no utility, or King Groot with decent utility but bad damage?

If you have no damage but decent utility you have something like ebony maw or king groot. If you have good damage but no utility you get someone like cull obsidian. I think I’d rather have someone like cull

A champ kinda needs a little of both to be good in the current meta.

lol pls ebony max isn’t the definition of utility. It’s just that his damage is so bad that’s all he has. Someone like Clair voyant or warlock is the definition of maximum utility.

Exactly. You can't be a top-tier champ in the game without dabbling in both, but it really depends on your preference of playstyle. I love damage output, but characters like Warlock are the embodiment of perfect rankups, who can get you damage if you need it, but provide you utility throughout.

You can focus on one but to be top tier you need to have both. Warlock and Cgr are perfect examples.

Guardian is the answer.

As long as they have fairly decent damage.
Also big red numbers > big yellow numbers.

Although, damage can actually be a piece of utility as well. For example, having enough damage to KO the opponent before the node or a certain mechanic comes to play.

Despite there being cases where you would want damage over utility and vice versa, a balance between the two is always welcome.

Obviously you want good damage with some utility
But if it's all damage and no utility vs all utility but zero damage... ill take the damage.

YOu can power through any content with the right damage... its expensive but you can clear. Utility cant always do that.

Some nodes can be powered through, but there are some that you have to have a specific piece of utility to get past.

Guardian is both

This shouldn't be a question. Of course you need a mix of both in today's meta, but a champ with tons of damage and barely any utility will get suck on paths in freakin Act 5.
