Rank Up/Team Suggestion for GM (Ignore Hercules)

LONERANGER_141 · April 25

I am aiming to reach Throne breaker before July. Any suggestions regarding rank ups or team building to reach Throne Breaker are welcome. Have been playing since last september, currently at the champion boss. In terms of skill,
->I can dex The Great DOCTOR DOOMS sp1 7/10 times, SP2 is 10/10 DAMAGE( i die mostly)
->I am very good at GETTING intercepted by the AI, hence i dont try them myself(thats why no herc)
->Mostly parry, sometimes dex

Thank you

Herc will help you intercept with higher success rate. And intercept skills are necessary for progressing in game and is vital for grandmaster fight. So definitely do rank him and learn intercepting. Other rank ups include the great doctor doom, ham, Hulkling onslaught and apocalypse.

First of all, congratulations, you have made a ton of progress in just 8 months. Second I'd say to wait a bit before attempting the grandmaster, as intercepting is required for that fight and you need to dex his sp1 always if you don't want to die. Hercules is very good in that fight so I suggest getting more experience with him, I also suggest to bring doom and juggernaut since they are also insane for the fight. For further info I suggest checking out mcocnoob on yt, the information is a bit old but still valid

JUGGS!!! IM DEAD SERIOUS!! He is best for gm, im not joking around. I did gm with r3 juggs and only used 200 units. Hulkling is also decent

Bruh, in no stage of game you should Ignore herc, he will save you from many bs nodes

LONERANGER_141 · April 25

@captain_rogers I guess, there's no escaping it then. I'll have to git gud. Appreciate the response

I don't know if you need any counters for the remaining of act 6 but just in general I think your best Champs for next rank ups are abs man kitty Kate omega centinel sunspot juggs and herc. You can aim to have a wide variety of r3 Champs so they help you through act 7 and then act 8 so you can become paragon after a completation on those 2 acts

LONERANGER_141 · April 25

@Thokk150 Thank you mate. I am aware that the GM fight has some unique mechanics. I saw seatins vid, will definitely check out mcocnoob too. Is it possible to do the fight with vox. I am quite decent with him (he's ez to use

). As for intercepting, this month's Eq cav difficulty Purgatory absolutely destroyed me. It took me around 6-7 revives for 100% completion and was the only fight where I needed to rev. I'll have to practice. How many units do you suggest would suffice including the 20 revive potions?

LONERANGER_141 · April 25

@Kingering_King Juggs is fun to use, but often a non damaging debuff shuts him off completely. Even for some cosmics he's a bad matchup. Imo his kit should be modified such that cosmics can't take away his gem or something

LONERANGER_141 · April 25

@IlociaM97 I have kate in mind, but i suck at intercepting and abs man requires light intercepts, need to practice. Appreciate the response.

Juggernaut because in 3rd phase he has reverse controls

Vox can be good, especially if he can access dot, but I think that your best option is juggernaut, since he ignores the reverse control phase that can definitely be difficult. So I'd say rank juggs and herc and try to get better at intercepting, since it's kinda required for that fight. I'd say for someone of your skill level(I was like you when I faced him so I feel you lol) you will need 1000 units

LONERANGER_141 · April 26

@Thokk150 Thanks mate. If I could trouble you further, there's a abyss Nexus included in the upcoming Deadpool event. Which class do you think should I go for. I am torn between science and tech. Also Appreciate the response

I don't remember GM having reverse controls in 6.4. Has it been that long since I fought that version that I just straight forgot that he did?

Phase 3 does if I recall.

JLordVileJ · April 26

I think he has reverse controls around 20 percent 30 percent region iirc

HaverTime · April 26

That's a Cav roster? Crazy! Some amazing pulls there.

In phase 3 he gains reverse controls for 8 seconds with a 50 second cooldown after that.

Ohhhh yeah, I remember that now.
That's exactly why a couple of my buddies had a rough time with him, and so did I at the time.
Thanks for clarifying, forgot all about that!

I'd say go for tech, you have less champs in the science class but you have basically all the very good ones. Tech you can go for future ant man or shuri and they will help you tremendously

Doom
Herc
Juggs
Nick
Magneto/Abs man

this is what I would've used, infact my team was almost similar to this, i have no experience with kate so no idea about her but doom helps in most of his phases and herc is just herc alot of damage with sustainibility, magneto and juggs for reverse controls or you could use abs man for unblockable specials for some phases nick just for the bleeds and his 2nd life so you can do alot of damage, anything works for gm tbh, just have a damaging effect like incinerate/bleed/poison and maybe 1 or 2 reverse control immunes

LONERANGER_141 · April 27

@HaverTime You bet its amazing. I also got 2 out of the 3 Beyond good tier cosmics. Psst I am not referring to herc, vox or hulkling. Can you guess who they are

LONERANGER_141 · April 27

Thank you to everybody who commented. I appreciate all the insights you guys gave

LONERANGER_141 · April 27

@Thokk150 I decided to bail on the nexus and rather get some rank up mats and AGs. I did get a normal nexus, got red guardian. He got a buff or something recently. He good?

willrun4adonut · April 27

Doom with Diablo (any rarity) for synergy, Juggs for reverse control, and Herc. Fifth spot whomever

Spot on, and before they buffed Juggs, we pretty much had to use Prof X or learn how to reverse controls.

The options today:

@Thokk150 @GrO_ot78 appreciate it.
