I know I'm gonna get a lot of hate for this rank up and ascension lol. But I absolutely love having him on AW Defence and in BGs. I plan on taking him upto R5 as well (Currently I've 2 R5s - Hercules and NF)

Why would we hate you, just because you find pleasure in the suffering of others??? 🤔 😉

That's questionable because 7r3 Awaken maw can exists now.

Show me someone who has done it

captain_rogers · January 21

You can always rank up a a7* lol.

If you want to trouble us, Just trouble us in the right way lol.

Anyways, who do you all think is the perfect counter for maw, Perfect in the sense they can knock him out without losing any health and also faster.

I think Omega sentinel is perfect with nullify immunity and tracking, not the fastest, but do him at max health.

Personally, I prefer using the pig or Mr Negative to counter the annoying degen

My 7r1 is almost as powerful as yours without investing anything so I understand the previous comment. Anyway everyone can do whatever do want, being efficient or fun

How about this?

Polygon · January 21

Necropolis class crystal gave me this, but believe it or not, I actually am not 100% sure if I want to rank 2 him.

Science is just so stacked with 7 stars now, some of them with degen resistance, some with easy access stuns like Silk, other Nukes like Hulk or Spam, Photon that counters miss.

Someone convince me? I’d say hes not even better than Mangog on defense

psp742 · January 21

If my 7* Maw was dupe.. I'd rank2 him

I have him at sig 40, Might as well r3 him if I get a cosmic gem from act 8.4 rewards.

Does this count??
He is amongst the most banned champs in my deck and has given me wins against champs like scorp even…that degen can catch u with some solid health loss and if he doesnt play ball in metas where parry opportunities are few and between,he can be a real pain to deal with.
And he is a potent attacker as well..working in the current VT meta with his heavy attack power steal and he also works for champs like korg cuz u can just play him normally without worrying about thorns damage

If I was truly evil, I would've r3d my 7* awakened maw instead of juggs.

Silk: easy knockdowns to delay falter, dex immune, big dmg, sp2 evade safety net. The most perfect of counters.

all i could think of when i saw the title

Easy kill for Ronin - can parry missile attacks, and inflicts bleeds through block, plus a bunch of decent bleeds on SP2, which are hugely magnified in this BG season.

I also find Viv Vision a pretty solid option: Immune to Nullify, and it's very easy for her to land Heavy attacks from phase. Not great in this particular BG season, because of the polka-dot power. But great, generally.

AA takes him down fast…

High sig Angela with Odin synergy and pre-fight is my «go to» tho…

And ofc…scorp, piggy, HT, Morbius

EdisonLaw · January 21

I think he’s pretty underrated, especially on attack. Once he’s ramped up (which isn’t difficult at all), his degen damage is actually quite good. He also has other useful pieces of utility like nullifying all buffs when in Black tongue, power steal, non contacts

@SidDDragon you say he gets banned a lot but bans are relative to roster size, do you have a lot of r3s r2s? I agree with if they cant parry but if they can then theres just a ton of science nukes so I imagine you take him out of the deck for some metas (assuming you have a large deck)

I am a valiant with 2 r3,a handful of r2 and an equal number of r5 6* so i would say my roster is about midway in terms of bg rosters and i have usually finished in arcane. But yes he does feature in my top 2 rows if thats what you are asking and i usually draft him in my final 1 or 2 pulls(when he isn’t banned) if my opponent hasnt pulled a hard counter to him

Warlock, he can power drain every time parry a non contact attack, that's mean power burns, he never reach sp 1 so don't worrie about nulify in sp2, just parry + heavy + reach sp2.
