I suggest that you should start when you get a 6* Hercules and upgrade him to at least rank 3 or 4.
Here's my guide for a cheap run: https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/345201/quick-n-dirty-gauntlet-guide/p1
I did it..think I used 6r4 kitty, valk, nimrod...maybe AA and doom? Anyway you can use the old guides they are fine. And I still don't have herc.
@Usagicassidy this is the thread I was talking about.@Milan1405 posted an awesome guide, and there's other tem suggestions as well.I ended up doing 2 runs yesterday.Went in eithHercNimrodWhite magsRed magsHeimdallSecond run was HercWhite magsAbs manNimrodHeimdallMy first run was much better than my second, I didn't find abs man very useful, and pretty well herc smashed everybody.I'm planning for a third run soon, and gonna switch it up a bit because I'm bored of herc smashing everything, lol

You may as well save a couple of the keys for the future if you intend to do the avengers and zemo carina challenges in gauntlet.
Thanks guys. I will probably try shortly with a team of Herc and any other combo of champs like AA, NF, Nimrod, Heimdall, White Mags, Kitty. Herc is R5 Ascended and the rest are all Rank 4 cept for Wags who is R3 and Heim who's R1.
