7 Stars have made me appreciate certain champs more

With 7 stars becoming more and more available and them having a good amount of power right from the start I've really started enjoying certain champs I've gotten that I had either completely forgotton about, or just never use anymore!

I've always known Sunspot was an absolute powerhouse but due to his limited utility I never really bothered taking him up and actually using him. And WOW is he fun to play! Same with Gamora(especially with the relic) when she gets going, she really gets going and can be a ton of fun in EQ!
Only recently started taking up my 6* Elsa but barely using her until I got her as a 7* and she's great too!
Hadn't given the Hulk buff much thought(although I heard a lot of good things) and now he's one of my favorite champs!

Anyone else got fun stories to share about (re)discovering older champs through 7*s?

    I’d probably take sunspot to r2 but I wish the cosmic champs had more utilty . Not to say gorr gamora venom are bad, but id rather r5 a 6* cosmic

    Gamora — just went to r2. Incredible.

    Mordo is more interesting as a 7* he is so fun to use in the GC meta.

    -For me it's Killmonger. Has been an MVP in the 7 for 7 Carina challenge

    Nobody was playing Gamora or Gambit as a 6* (I m talking about paragon players that have a big roster), nobody will play them after a year when the 7* pool will be twice its size. The champions may have buffed abilities, but they re not top. And they ll never be.

    But it's nice for the time being to get to use champs from ages long past that are now relevant again

    My mvps have been my r2 Sam, Joe Fixit, and chavez. This is the most fun content for me in a while🤩

    Pulled Stryfe yesterday and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by his utility. Already helped a bunch going through 7.1 for Carina’s.

    They will fall back down in popularity as more utility based champs get released.

    I just pulled 7 star Stryfe yesterday as well and was disappointed but don't know much about his utility. What did he do that impressed you?

    Exactly! When 7* pool will be big then everything will be as it was before 7*s. Everyone will be chasing top tier champs. For example when Warlock will be added to 7* basic crystal then we will forget about most of the already released 7* tech champs.

    +1 for sunspot. He is definitely going to r2 once I get the resources. He is a bg machine

    His psionic blasts cannot be evaded, no percentage reduction or anything. Meaning that his mediums and heavies counter all the fun in mesmerize and mixmaster lanes.
    He also reduces passive damage by 100%, so he counters Korg, Electro, thorns, etc.
    You can spend charges to remove unstoppable buffs, can inflict concussions that stack, he’s immune to reverse controls and can block unblockable attacks.
    Not to mention that you can accumulate persistent charges to increase his damage in a quest.
    I recommend watching Jason Voorhees’ video on how to use him.
