    Symbiote Supreme. Or Tigra, if you’re good at her.

    I’d go Sym Supreme myself.


    Got tigra pretty recently so i can safely say that i suck playing with her, honestly im still not really sure how im supposed to play her.

    In that case, Symbiote Supreme. Don’t gamble on a buff

    Usually id agree but the last few community voted buffs have been pretty crazy.

    I have a feeling that a community vote winner that is also a Kabam original is going to get a great buff, but there really isn't any point to gambling on it. You'll get more mystic t5cc eventually, and being TB makes that easier. Might as well wait for a bit and see how the buff turns out.

    I would probably go with Symbiote Supreme. He's not my favorite champ but he does have his uses and is by no means a bad choice.

    I like Tigra the most out of all of your champs, but she 1) benefits from being awakened, and 2) is also very much a gamble before you've learned to play her. Her playstyle isn't for everyone and you should make sure it is for you before pumping in a t5cc into her.

    But basically: She has two senses: Huntress and Primal. Huntress generates power for you when you inflict rupture on the opponent or make them miss; Primal makes your ruptures deal extra damage to the opponent for each damaging debuff you have on them.

    Assuming you have at least Primal active, Tigra's SP2 is her main damage-dealer. Each hit of it has a 10% chance to inflict rupture on the opponent, with an additional 10% chance for each existing damaging debuff that's on them. If you've already got a bunch of raptures on them, you'll place a bunch more and every rupture will then deal an additional burst of damage for each damaging debuff on the opponent. You just build and build and build damage (and the chance to inflict more of it) with every hit.

    Huntress isn't as necessary offensively but it is a nice defensive power generation. You can dodge a ton of difficult special attacks with it, as long as they are projectiles. Whenever you do, you gain a small burst of power.

    Outside of the SP2, the main way to build ruptures is to heavy-intercept the opponent. This is the tricky part of her since you really need to learn spacing and when to go for those heavy attacks. It's really easy to mess up and she is a pretty squishy champ so you'll be beaten black and blue if you time things wrong.

    But it's soooo worth it to learn. I love her.

    I'd personally go Tigra but really depends since its your first r3

    Sym Sup and Tigra are solid choices imo

    If you have a strong roster already then If you're willing to wait then wait for the buff.
    Or if you really enjoy playing Guilly then choose her.

    Choose who you like. After you get TB you will be ranking up champs far more often.

    Guillotine is at this moment not your best option. But I have high hopes for her buff. Maybe you wait a little bit longer :)

    Welp in the end after thinking about it for a while I've gone with Sym Supreme. Also after seeing all of the suggestions for Tigra im definitely going to give her some more attention since it sounds like I've been sleeping on her.



    P.S. I still hope that Guillotine turns out to be crazy good.

    There is no guarantee, Kabam explicitly tells that. It will be a buff of their choosing. It can be a Values Only, Moderate or Complete Overhaul. Seeing Guillotine isn't the worst, we can safely rule out Complete Overhaul. We just don't know what the buff will be. So...

    Don't gamble on a buff.
