The power of 6*R5 Ascended Kitty Pryde

I’ve had enough of all these Youtubers ranking Kitty so low nowadays and sometimes below Onslaught. On top of her broken utility she now has insane damage.

No boosts, No Tigra, Ghost or Nimrod synergy and No Class advantage vs ROL Captain Marvel:

    She’s good with suicides but most people don’t run it in battlegrounds (unless it’s a meta like this one) and there are better options there for offense and defense if you’re not using them. Outside of battlegrounds, yes, she is broken. That’s why she’s never coming as a 7* probably

    Build to 1 bar, ML, SP1, Build to SP2 + atleast 10 prowess, MLL, Mr Sinister relic, Dash back then SP2 right after dashing in (it’s unblockable). Repeat if needed.

    When building power I did 5 hit combos but remember to start the combo while phased whenever possible, for the high crit/prowess build-up.

    Outside of Battlegrounds, yes she is the best. But in Battlegrounds, Onslaught all the way.

    Even on attack?

    Kitty is too Op, but there aren't any OP content for her anymore. Like she can cheese everything in game, but there aren't any tough content that needs her. In bgs, she's little slow compared to other mutant powerhouses, But I believe she will be released as 7* one day (probably the last in her class)

    Yes. Barely any high tier players run Kitty on their deck in non-recoil metas lol. And even if she is there, she’s never drafted. Onslaught is a better dual threat option and she’s not the fastest without suicides

    Fair enough, would you say that Kitty is a better attacker with suicides though?

    Also you’d probably agree that Kitty is better than Onslaught outside of BG right?

    Outside of BG, she is amazing. In BG, unfortunately, there are too many champs who can stop access to prowess, and then she is useless in defense.

    If they got a Kitty, i pray for Yondu 🧨💥🔥☠️🔥

    She isn't useless in defense, You can't intercept her, and she can inflict incenerates on sp1 block. She is quite problematic/annoying defender, but mutant prowess controllers keep her in check (NIMGOD)

    Bro relax, Kitty is broken but Onslaught is considered better because of his solid defence and as dual threat in BG.

    "solid defence"? He's the best mutant defender in the game.

    Depends on the content and if you’re running suicides. Onslaught is amazing for Necro and far far better than Kitty for that. I’d rather run Onslaught in AW with hazard shift and everything. In story content I guess I’d say Kitty if you want a broken option and not have to worry about most nodes

    Questions:
    1. Why the ML before the SP1? (instead of MLL)
    2. Is Mr. Sinister Relic because of the increased prowess potency or does the bleed do anything for her?
    3. Why SP2 directly after dashing in? (instead of MLL -> SP2)

    1. To ensure you have enough space power-wise to build to SP2 with as many prowesses as you can. Minor difference I guess but every little helps.
    2. Increased prowess potency AND increased crit rate 😉
    3. Because the relic stun isn’t long enough to consistently be able to dash back then in again for another combo. Hit SP2 before you make contact otherwise you’re at risk of being intercepted. My method is completely risk-free unless they can block unblockables.

    1. I don‘t think I can follow…

    2. I think the extra crit is negligible, considering the +4k crit rate during phasing… Diminishing returns is real!

    3. That’s actually brilliant!

    1. ML instead of MLL before SP1 gives you more space power-wise to get as many prowesses as possible before you get to an SP3 (as you want to throw an SP2 instead). You could also just M before SP1 for even more space power-wise.
    2. Well atleast you get the higher prowess potency lol
    3. Thanks 😊
