FYI Crossbones sig 20

Interested in the result here as I've been carrying a R3 skill gem and have the same choice...

Im baffled shang has the lead. Hes the better questing and content champ, but CB is an absolute stud in BGs with how fast he clears out fights.

CB definitely for BGs. He's a better defender then SC.

CB can shut down Serpent's cheat death mechanic and nuke Photon in 30 secs, that alone makes him a way better option than Shang imo.

People saying Crossbones Crossbones and then never draft him

I don’t see many people draft Shang tbh. CB isn’t on a lot of decks but from what I’ve seen, it’s mostly cause people don’t like his play style or don’t know how to play him efficiently

BeastDad

Easily the better attacker for BG’s.

Starting to even out it seems, glad they aren't going to do CB dirty. Not only is he faster, he can handle more current meta defenders than Shang.

Shang the GOAT

Tbh Shang is that guy fr fr ong no cap iykwim. (Idk wim)

It’s close but I’d say Xbones. Unlike Shang, Crossbones can be a decent defender with his shrug off and ability accuracy reduction. Shang Chi has no defensive value

winterthur

Shang-Chi only on offense.

If you’re good with Shangchi’s play style I’d go him. But I found he was hard to play against the meta defenders and I recently took my r2 out of my bg deck. He all depends on the big sp2 and if you mess it up and go to sp3 or get stuck without the charges and can’t parry heavy or stun, it’s normally a loss.

But, if BG is the main use, I would honestly wait for something better.

But, again, if this R3 makes you Valiant, then it's worth it no matter which champ you choose…

I have crossbones and sometime RNG suck him, sometimes due to RNG i hit sp3 at 10 furies and opponent knock out. Skill isn't requires to much for crossbomes for BGs, just gain 5 furies, enter overrun and use any special attack that is charged.
