So what’s the consensus on the green guy with wings a few months in?

How are folks feeling about Hulkling now that the initial hype has worn off? I know the content creation community was pretty excited about him when he first dropped.
I know he is a great counter for Peni, but what else is he good for? What game modes does he shine? Does he need to be awakened/sigs to be useful?
Conveniently I pulled a 2-3 cosmic gem from 8.1 completion, so contemplating taking him straight to rank 3.

he’s very annoying too fight and quite a few people have taken him to rank 4
If you want to see some examples of war fights I’ve got a compilation of my R4, he’s unduped in all but one fight here.
(There’s time stamps for all fights in the description)
He has a lot of damage with minimal build up and a simple rotation. He’s got a ton of useful immunities - I run path 3 in AW and he’s my go to attacker, he destroys that path.
On defence he’s a monster - I’d say my most successful champ on defence in battlegrounds to date. He really draws out a fight with his indestructible.
He doesn’t need to be awakened at all, his awakening gives you more uptime on fury’s so longer periods of big damage. I have mine at rank 4 (unawakened), and I’d say he’s my favourite champion so far this year. Love him.
Apparently the game really wants me to have him as I pulled him at both 5* and 6* today.
The R5 five star is very good but I’m still holding out hope!
He is a double threat for battlegrounds, amazing and quick damage attacker but also a very good defender. His ability to go unblockable has been a blessing to have especially with the extra defensive ai lately. He is also very tanky if you get smacked a bunch he gets some great regen and can go indestructible.
I would say like most new champs his awakened ability is nice but not necessary. You should definitely take him straight to R3 unawakened you wont be disappointed.
