Once I learned to punish his SP2 with a heavy attack in order to disable his Protection, things got pretty easy. You know, relatively speaking. Also keep in mind that you gain power when striking Hulkling's block. That's an easy way to build up to a special attack without having to go through his Indestructible cycle. You still need to create buffs for him in order to damage him, but that's fairly easy. In my experience, he builds Bulwark buffs like crazy when you hit into his block (as long as he has those charges).
I would start out by pushing him to an SP2, then heavy-punish it when he threw it, then strike into his block until I had an SP2 of my own, and throw it into his block for massive damage. Both Chavez and Quicksilver are #Hero champions so they place a passive stun on Hulkling afterwards so that he doesn't automatically punish them, while Masacre has his own miss mechanic for the same effect.
If you time it right, you can heavy Hulkling during that passive stun and remove the Protection again. Then you can just strike his block again in order to build power, and repeat the cycle. I eventually found a nice rhythm to it.
You just got to be careful not to take any blocked hits. I survived a special attack to the face with Chavez, but blocked hits will KO you fast.
got three solos, photon, kushala, abs man, easiest week by far
How did you play with kushala? Which rank?
I soloed it with kushala. Its pretty ez, u just gotta make sure to counter hulking's sp2 with a heavy (remove protection) and throw ur sp2 while he is blocking (u won't land the soul barb, but it doesn't really matter).
My kushala is rank 4 ascended, but u could easily do it with a boosted r3 too.
Had a blast with Domino. I think this will be the first time I take out my new seven star Chavez. As far as medium Avenger think I might try Photon for the first time in any serious fight. This week is a big W for Kabam.
Make sure to add a Relic to your champion of choice, as it really helps with the knockdown. Since you are focusing on hitting into block, the spirit gain is slower than you are accustomed to, but it is still a nice tool to have as the protection timer is winding down and you're in between specials.
America Chavez has a really good time with this, as the combo-heavy makes worrying about the Protection timer practically non-existent.
For the Avenger objective, I just went with 7R1 Iron Man, but pretty much any champion would work I imagine. Didn't get the solo, but I have revives that will go to waste by the time the next WoW defender is released, so it was worth not having to repeat the fight.
R2 6* QS worked. Very slow and stressful fight but hey, he gets the job done
What was the strat?
Just keep some debuffs on him to stop the regen but even if they fall off, it’s no big deal. Hitting into his block with a full combo will pretty much get you to an sp2 and you want to cycle that with your relic to knock him down (heavy after an sp2 into block should be fine).
You’ll want to watch his power when you hit him directly because he’ll gain a lot from quicksilvers hits. The sp2 into block with protection down does big damage even with a r2 so just avoid taking a blocked hit and remember to just play slow even if you mess up the protection timing like I did a couple times

Quicksilver worked great. Thanks for this. Could've been a solo but Hulkling learned how to backdraft intercept mid fight
Number of revives used America Chavez: 8 Ab Man: Big Fat Zero
Granted I never bothered to figure out I had to hit into the block when the protection was on cool down. Realized this after using America Chavez, it paid to figure things out b4 jumping in.
Who are the best options for dimensional beings? I only have 5* ascended cgr tbh. No chaves or kushala
I am trying with ascended CGR. Honestly, if the AI wasnt so wack, would have completed the fight by now but Hulkling gets superspeed occasionally and clips my CGR on defense to remove half his health in one go. I still think its doable as a solo with a couple of revives and a well behaved AI
Comments
Still very doable! Took me 4 revives, because I got clipped a couple of times, but still ok.
Next run will be CGR, but mine is r3, so I‘ll wait for that 3-4 Gem and then go for it…
The only downside: I got to open a 7* and awakened my Silver Surfer. Not exactly what I wanted, because I never use him outside of arena…

Due to Hulkling having the Node be attached to his abilities, Domino "severs" the connection.
