Did the Hype for Nebula die down?

Worth r3 unduped? The sig seems to only make a difference when its high vs just at s20.

I was going to rank her for another emp mod counter and having a shock champ with shock immunity in general is useful. The power lock from sp1 I’ve heard from some puts her as a top tech power control champ too
Nebula is a utility truck and a powerhouse.
She’s got Triple Immunities, Power Control, reduces Robot AAR, massive shock damage, increased Combat Power Rate from her sig and strong Regen.
She’s one of the best Tech champs, even better than Guardian (imo) because her utility is more accessible.
I have her at R3 and just today I took her for a run in 6.3.1; top, top champ.
Guardians power control has to sacrifice damage, whereas for nebula its much more sustainable.
Power control is huge to have, but guardian is more tanky and sustainable.
Both need an sp3 to get their damage cycle, but guardian has the edge in damage.
Nebs has triple immunities and one that is huge to have as a robot since there’s nodes that punish robots with shocks for being bleed immune. Also EMP mod exists. On the other hand, guardian has fantastic energy resistances.
Nebs access to shock can also be good for things like thunderstruck.
It’s a pretty close matchup.
He’s got some great stuff going on for him, but like you said, it comes at the expense of his damage. His Power Control, 2nd Armour Up Force Field and ability to Block Unblockable Specials thrown by Mutants all consume Forcd Field charges.
And his rotation until that bursty SP2 is God-awful boring.
Nebula, on the other hand, is quite scary when she hits that SP3. Shocks and Amp charges left, right and center. Power control, AAR, increased DPS, increased Combat Power Rate, and a massive SP2 all at your fingertips.
Juicy.
Nebula made it happen. Old memories.
She is a very good champion.
Depend on the player.
