And as always, Archangel is an answer

Had to use a revive as i didn't want to try again.

Anyone done it with Red Hulk yet? He's my usual option for Mystics, though this one forces Buffs on you...

I also used CGR for the cosmic - needed 2 40% revives but it’s done now.

The objectives this time were actually pretty tough for me. Here’s who I used:
Mercenary: 6r1 Unduped Luke Cage. He actually does really well, it took me four revives, but I think if I had him up at 6r3 I could have got it done in one or maybe a solo.
Cosmic: 5/65 CGR. Maybe I should’ve used my unduped 6r3, but I wanted to make use of the Damnation debuff. Four revives because I messed up twice.
Control Denial: 6r3 P2099. He actually did pretty good. It took me three revives to nuke Sym down.
For the Solos: So far I got the solo with Thing and RG, will be trying a few more champs later this week.

I used Rulk. Not a one shot but the easiest sop fight I did (I am a mediocre cav with a limited roster).

Artoria77

Thing = good counter. My rank 4 did good work of him

TheExit27

WTF? Can someone explain why this is happening?

Is this a bug or something? I did a 5 second video, but it wouldn't attach.

I echo that Domino is great for completion and Mercenary tag. Got a solo on first try with 5R5. Just full combos, bait SP1 as needed, use my SP3 and be less aggressive if bleed is on.

Guardian may be able to Tank all those Energy Attacks Fairly Well as long as you Stall the first 14 Seconds of the Fight for the Armor Up to reapply, Red Guardian who Cannot gain Any Buffs can ignore that aspect, same with Nullify+Stagger Immune Champions, Human Torch can probably just Brute Force ignore everything, Stark Spidey Could be good with his Increased Evade against Specials and Taunt, you Could possibly use Quake but would have to bait Specials occasionally and get into a Corner quickly to avoid the Degen...

Symbiote Supreme is a very odd choice for a Defender, with Several Basic yet Annoying Nodes when combined that also leads to not much for us to Counter unlike previous Weeks...
Close Encounters looks like it's just gonna be this ever present annoyance that punishes you while trying to bait Specials...
Close encounters is negligible compared to the nullify damage.

Don't you only take Nullify Damage in the First Phase? That can be Avoidable at least (hitting into Block or using a Buff Immune / Nullify+Stagger Immune Champion.)

Rasilover

Easy torch fight

You got your buffs nullified and Sym deals damage when nullify buffs while in Chthons Cunning.

Hera1d_of_Ga1actus

He's ez
it's gonna be annoying to take all the damage when the placebo buffs get nullified

He’s nullify immune lol

I used Hyperion. Heavy spam in the corner, got like 10 furies, SP2 chain stun then repeat heavies. He doesn’t nullify everything until the power gain phase so it took me 3 level 1 revives with Hyperion.
I did the same. Not pretty, but after first shot got him down ~60%, I had revives in stash ready to burn. Good tip!

Dr. Zola

It’s satisfying watching those furies stack up! I was hitting 15k mediums!

Qfury

1 revive with hitmonkey.

altavista

1 revive - don't think a solo with a cosmic champ is possible

Edit:
Suicides + 15% attk + 10% attk & health

Boosts were probably overkill but I'm off to try and burst down with hitmonkey now for mercenary objective

What was your strategy? I used one SP2, and with all the armor breaks, one hit made SS go to SP3 and I got KO'd.

LibertyPrimeV1

I wonder, could Namor Reflect that Nullify Damage with his Sig Ability? You'd have to make sure you're Attacking at that moment but if it's counted that could be another option

Hilldar

Domino here too. Easy one shot but I have a 6r3.

Qfury

Who to use for control denial tag though?

T-DeAdLY-J

Who to use for control denial tag though?

I used r3 BWCV. 2 revives. I also had a P2099 but BWCV was great for healing too.

TheLegend27

Done with mercenary (Domino) and cosmic (CGR). Denial is going to take a while.

This week is showing I really never learned Sym Supreme's kit - had no idea why some things were happening lol

5 hit - medium
Parry - heavy
5 hit - light
Few hits in to sp2
Get as many hits in as poss and you should be back at an sp1 fire it off - there's 50% of his health gone.

1 revive required

ILoveDrDoom

I did this fight with R3 5 star thing, I couldn’t believe how good he was for this fight lol. I messed up a few times and used 3 revives but it’s whatever I’ve done all 7 weeks and only need to do 2 more weeks

Yodabolt21

Easy solo with r2 Domino! I comboed like normal until sp3. Then fired of 2 sp2 to get him down. I did get lucky and survived an sp3 though.... Wasn't expecting that.

Ercarret

I'm having some luck with my Punisher 2099. Haven't beaten him yet but I'm working on it. It seems like the strategy is to use SP1s, but we'll see. I suspect that SP1s into his block to reduce the placebo buff gain is the way to go.

Jumptheshark

Easy Domino solo!

LeNoirFaineant

Damn the mercenary one is looking brutal if you don’t have BWDO or Hit monkey

Got the solo with a R5 Domino. Strange given how terrible people say she is.

LeNoirFaineant

Who to use for control denial tag though?

I used Magik. One revive

The_Sentry06

So what's the the strat without nullify immune champs?
