The power of a fully synergised Colossus

in General Discussion
In content where you can have a team of 5, Colossus hits like an absolute truck as well as having a lot of immunities.

Professor X, Red Mags and Omega Red, the 5th can be anyone depending on the nodes/defenders.

With this team, my rank 3 Colossus (no suicides or boosts) has put down ROL Winter Soldier in 49 seconds.

Which other rank 3 champ without suicides/boosts is capable of that?

    Stryfe with Apoc, Cable, Hood. You can add whichever champion you like to the 5th spot. Not as many immunities as colossus but he can deal with a lot of different scenarios: thorns, evade, unstoppable, unbockable, annoying defensive mechanics like Thing's protection, etc.

    Utility wise this is great but ultimately my main point is Colossus’ damage when fully synergised, it’s nuts.

    There are champs that hit way harder (you would think) but whenever I farm potions I ALWAYS use Collosus with prof x, mags, omega red and either Emma, wolverine or apoc. Sometimes I do this just to get to wolverine and let him Regen while I stack like 40 armorups and see if I can one shot him with one heavy sp2 chain. He truly is underrated and one of the best champs in the game when you can surround him with a fully synergized team

    Can’t think of anyone that hits harder who doesn’t need a long ramp up (at same rank without suicides). Maybe CGR…but even then he doesn’t beat Colossus in damage comparisons I run.

    For farming he’s good because his basic attacks (especially heavies) already hit hard and you don’t have to rely on specials.

    Just realised; add Kingpin and this is an absolute banger of a team.

    Fully synergized Stryfe's damage is also nuts and arguably more consistent that Colossus', especially given the fact that Stryfe has a higher crit rate, consistent DOT with the passive shock and the extra burst on heavy attacks and sp2s

    Wanda with the QS synergy is great fun and can do most fights quick (with some luck!).

    Bruh... You literally asked which other champion can do that

    I asked which other champ can take down ROL WS that fast, hence I was clearly referring to damage and not utility

    Took my undupped R3 6* with 5* ProfX, 5* Red Mags, 6* R1 Emma Frost and 4* R1 Omega Red to ROL after seeing this thread, and can confirm it's quite brutal. Even without the awakened ability I could still get to up to 25 armour ups, and slapped consistently 30k hits, with the max being 90k.

    You are actually missing out on the true power of this team. Run suicides. Win a fight or 2 with prof x. And then colossus will heal from suicides. I used most of this team to 100% LoL (just for bragging rights - I know rewards suck). Though sub white mags for red. And 5th member was either Emma or AA

    I just did a run with Hela R2 & Odin synergy, no suicides & got 34 secs. Maybe someone with her at R3 can try and see what times she can do.

    Someone posted the fastest 3 times and she was number 1 by a country mile....think it took him like 23 seconds lol....slayer maybe?

    Bumping this because of the below kill of ROL Hulk.

    Rank 4, no suicides, no boosts.

    With synergies allowed, Colossus is easily the 3rd highest damage champion in the game after Hela and CGR.


  • coolspiderman17_coolspiderman17_ Member Posts: 322 ★★★
    CGR can do it pretty fast.

    Hela.

    No synergies, suicides, or boosts
    A bit slower but only 28 hits, could probably do it in less
