If you will R5 a 6* just for the purpose of fighting Act 6 Grandmaster, who will be this champ?

The title.

I'm guessing the most probably obvious choices are going to be: Hercules. Kitty Pride, Doom, Juggernaut, ?

    Herc, with Max victories on Recoils so you get a nice regen to keep you topped off through the fight along with the Heimdall synergy, that should probably be good enough. 🤣

    Herc, because you’ll want him r5 anyways for other content.

    Prof x is the goat for this and the Gwen master. As an added perk he is great for bg defence

    Why would you need an r5 6* for The Grandmaster?

    Yall think it's funny, but there are seriously people who struggle even with the collector using r3 6*. Just cause you got a high ranked champ doesn't mean much if you lack the skill to go with it.

    The solution is to improve your skill. At this point in the game Act 6 can be considered the midpoint. You can't just go through the midpoint of the game with high-end champions. You still have EOP, Gauntlet and any future Acts. What are you going to do then if you've relied too heavily on champion rank?

    Act 6 was designed with the ceiling being r5 5*s and r2 6*s in mind and even then was tuned down multiple times because of how nightmarish it was. Now it's easier than ever.

    By all means beating The Grandmaster for me was hellish when I did it 2 years ago. But one thing you'll pick up on is that the fight is designed around skill, not high-rank brute forcing. Having an r4 6* Hercules against an r5 5* Hercules isn't going to make too much of a difference at the same level of skill. Grandmaster will eat both Health Pools whole if you screw up one too many times.
