Is Ronan still relevant?

After what feels like years of hunting this guy as a 6*, I finally got him! I can easily sig 200 him as well, but is he still relevant? BG’s, questing, alliance war, synergies etc, I’d love to invest in him but if he isn’t gonna be worth it I may just wait and see if I can pull better cosmics.

    Only in some matchups and metas where toms of buffs are present.

    There are certain metas where he becomes a top Option

    he’s not good for general use, but in the right matchups he can just stunlock a buff-heavy opponent to death.

    He's occasionally very useful for some cheese

    yup, he’s gonna get used, they’ll still put the “defender is gonna gain a billion buffs” nodes from time to time. at that point, you DON’T usually need him ranked, but higher sig is much better.

    People saying he is irrelevant yet he is still used. If he was irrelevant he would not be used at all.

    He’s neither relevant or irrelevant, he’s the definition of a niche champion

    He's very niche, whenever there is a boss with lots of/escalating buff counts he can be used to stun lock and cheese the fight

    He's niche; but in some ways actually gaining relevance: there are many champs/situations where a champion is going to end up with lots of buffs; and Kabam gives them immunity to Nullify, Fate Seal and AAR.

    Ronan often makes a great option in these situations.

    Hm interesting, I’m thinking taking up Galan over him mainly for that dual threat.
  • captain_rogerscaptain_rogers Member Posts: 9,613 ★★★★★
    Definitely galan is miles ahead of ronan

    There is every reason to assemble a full team of cheese options: Ronan, iHulk, Galan, AA, Red Mags, Maw, etc.

    Will you use them all the time? Nope. Hit when they shine, they shine so brightly there’s no way you’d choose another option.

    He was never relevant. He's a niche champ who works better than anyone for the matchups ye does.

    I used him for Dani in the previous Side quest. She had that Prowess buff every 2 seconds after getting SP2 node, so yeah. Not much used, but does his job well where he's probably the only one I could think of in those situations.

    Nearly 300 champs in the game, every champ has their best fights to use and not to use. Out of all the champs in the game, how many do you use regularly?

    He’s relevant in the specific niche fights he can cheese. For every other fight, there’s probably 150-200 better options.

    If you still have act content to complete and you can easily spare the Sig stones, Sig him up. He can usually cheese at least one path per act and a couple of the bosses.
