Given how strong Onslaught is already at base I have a feeling the fight will be very similar to the Spider Ham fight. Not same nodes of course but in the sense that you won't have to fight him as you normally would, instead you will deal damage through different actions that way you have more options for the fight cause Onslaught already has very few counters, adding tough nodes that don't help you somehow would only make the fight worse. I refuse to believe they didn't learn their lesson after that Abs Man nightmare we had to deal with not that long ago.
With that being said, I hope Shocker is MVP 🙃
Then that would undermined Kabam Miike statement when he said Onslaught fight will have spring of sorrow live up to it's name lol.
That was most likely satire because of all the jokes that were being made about them adding stupid nodes such as "if the attacker hasn't made contact with the defender in 2 seconds inflict a shock on both the defender and the attacker". Did you expect him to say "don't worry about it fellas it won't be as hard as you think"? Where's the fun in that? Lol Making Onslaught an absolute nightmare like WoW Abs Man would go completely against what they said after the feedback they received from that WoW fight, makes absolutely no sense. Will Onslaught be hard? Yes, one of the hardest probably, however they acknowledged the fact that the Abs Man fight was overtuned and his changes would affect a lot of future Gauntlet fights so no I can 100% say I am not expecting another WoW Abs Man tomorrow and neither should you.
I would agree except for kabam’s habit of not testing these fights before release. They seem design these fights solely off of data points instead of on hands experience.
SoS isn't about having a counter for a champion, but a counter for a champion with 10 nodes on them that is in some niche subset of the champion pool.
I promise you HAVOK at most will cover 1 objective, and I'd be surprised if it were that many.
If you want to apply any effort at all in preparing... grind out either some revives or some rank up resources, as it is going to be something like Cyclops that will be the answer.
The answer is unitman….unitman is always the answer lol
So far the fight design isn't the worst. THE AI is awful though. it's smart enough to wait out the power sting. and for some reason is an intercepting god right now... I am literally only struggling because of that. the fight is fine, I can dex his sp1 no issue, but since they made his heavies unstoppable there are literally no free openings. only intercepts, or the sp1 punish if you want to risk that.

Doesnt missed opportunity gives advantage on dexing specials
Spent 3 minutes 45 seconds landing one hit and the rest of the fight was just him blocking. Closed the game, may come back tomorrow may not. Rotten AI still plaguing the game.

It is funny, because on dexing his specials you get the energy resistance, but your physical resistance goes down. so if you get hit after that you get wrecked. I thought they might do a similar thing to Dani Moonstar where he special locks at sp1 or something, but so far Diablo(carinas challenger) and of course Herc (Hero 2021) do just fine... not sure on The M avengers challenge though.

The multiple energy resistance buffs is probably to fuel dulled node while providing a useful buff, which will reduce neuroshock damage if you somehow manage to get many of em
