Simple question. That’s it. And tell me why please. This rank up is for act 7 exploration. Not for war, aq, variants or eq
- I don’t run suicides
- Both are awakened
- I have apoc at r5 along with cable

    KP is a monster. If you run WP you get constant healing. Plus the ability to shrug debuffs is big. I have an r3 stryfe that rarely comes off the shelf, though he does have some niche utility.

    Not sure that Act 7 favors ramp up champs and champs that have a specific rotation like Stryfe. I'd go KP.

    I wouldn't even touch Stryfe if you have an Aegon. Plus you have the best Apoc Synergy already which is Cable. Kingpin will be far more useful in Act 7. So many nodes/enemies that deal debuffs on you which will just be easy money for Kingpin.

    Kingpin is far more useful in general questing
    But if you are interested in abyss then stryfe could be used there

    6 fights usually isn't worth the ramp up.

    You can do it way faster than that. You can get fully ramped in 1-2 fights

    Both are great for their own reasons. You’d enjoy both.

    That high health pool is amazing for the end of quest boss fights. Specially talking about gwenmaster and kang

    More health- more chances to mess up.

    I think he may be saying that the Ramp Up isn’t Worth it if there is only 6 fights.

    Could be wrong but that’s how I Interpreted it

    Could be entirely dependant on health pools of the fights, no?

    This just shows you know nothing about Stryfe besides he can ramp up like Aegon, they completely different champs.
    Yes Stryfe can ramp up to insane damage as well but he’s got a lot of utility that no one really talks about and he is still amazing completely unramped
    Unlike Aegon who’s the better champ when ramped but he needs to be ramped to get that utility.

    Stryfe can apply concussion to reduce Ability accuracy, he can block unblockable attacks, he can stun and remove unstoppable buffs, he counters evade, he takes no damage when attacking with mediums and heavy, works against Korg, electro, even magik’s limbo. He also can cloak and make opponents miss, when you mess up the opponents attacks glance dealing very little damage and when awakened he has a chance to cloak so you just gain the charges back that you lose by glancing.

    Overall Aegons the better Abbys champ but Stryfe doesn’t the ramp up and is an amazing champ for quests/shorter content as well as the long quests where he can ramp up and get that insane damage

    I just don’t really like stryfe and kingpin is a beast. He’s got so much damage and is really fun.
