  Just tried with Tigra
  
  My first impression is that the heavy hitter node is stupid

  I’ll be trying CGR, Bullseye and Longshot as my best ranked up options

  Is there anyway to play around unstoppable, does the node applies slow or something? Or just have to play around it?

  Squatch works, so does Dragon Man.

  I thought we were overdue a harder fight, the previous couple have been quite straightforward

  Off first glance CGR seems like the goat for that cosmic objective.

  The unstoppable from heavy hitter is known to linger slightly after the heavy attack is finished and not be affected by AAR… so are you just supposed to hope you don’t get punished interrupting the last hit?? Or are you supposed to interrupt mid heavy and be quick enough to dex the next hit?

  Solo first try with 7* r3 Bullseye for the skill merc objective. I actually really like this fight.
  
  The main goal with this fight is the fact that you need to knock down Heimdall with a special in order to deal damage, but he has a brace node that gives him unstoppable against attacks that would knock him down. It’s disabled by hitting him during or after his heavy, but he’s unstoppable during his heavy. However, you do NOT need an unstoppable counter, this fight can be done by anyone. Heimdall’s heavy has a long enough delay between the first and second hit that you can hit him after the first hit to disable brace and still have time to dex the rest of the hits without punishment. Heimdall roots you during his heavy so this is easy to do. As long as you can do that, this fight is largely simple.
  
  Bullseye helps because his true accuracy lets you ignore Heimdall’s auto-block. Just spam sp1 while disabling brace and he’ll go down.

  Don't understand why they keep bringing back root when it's a bug mechanic since it was introduced ... Can't dex or attack when I should be able to

  It's not a bug. Heimdall disable dexterity when he has true strike buff

  Dragonman sp1 adds slow which was really helpful, it made it a fun and challenging fight. It took me few fights to learn how to dex Heim sp1 and heavy. Was satisfactory solo. Now need to see other challenges.

  Socrecer supreme is great for mystic objectibe since she has slow.

  Is the AI weird for anybody else on this fight?
  
  Heimdall stood still blocking for literally 10 whole seconds

  Bc how else would they make money. Don't you get it if things don't benefit them much they will fix it asap. If it does well they pretend to ignore it.

  This comment is brilliant… in the last 2 weeks, Kabam has made literally MILLIONS. Quit being a bitter A hole.
  
  And as already stated, Hemidall’s true strike turns off dex. My guess is that is what happened.

  There is no true strike when it happens. This can happened fightning any champion, not just heimdall

  You don't need dexterity to avoid melee hits.

  @Maratox you can safely tap him after his heavy even when he's unstoppable. He won't retaliate. At worst he will throw another heavy so be ready to dex it

  Solo with 7* r2 Vox for cosmic metal objective. Nothing much to add from my previous comment. The undermine lets you ignore Heimdall’s auto-block just like Bullseye can.

  Soc sup for mystic. Set up slow rune as permanent by a sp3 then spam any special. Start with blue mode so it will aligne correctly on pink mode when you get to 3 bars of power.

  BETA RAY FREAKING BILL
  
  absolutely destroyed the fight just 1 sp2 with the heavy charge ( make sure you have grit buff by knocking down with heavy )
  
  then 2 sp1 bursts and he was dead

  Mojo works well for the mystic objective. The degens themselves build up the damage counter pretty high, each knockdown was dealing about 30% HP

  It was a longer fight, but for deathless she hulk, I just built up to sp3s. I couldn't get the counter attack in well with his unstoppable.

  Thanks man, this is good advice. Just tried it with Bullseye based on your write-up and did some good damage for a test run. Should be easy to solo him once I concentrate and add some boosts.

  @Average_Desi bro you're life saver. I followed your advice and punished heavies. Worked most of the time but won't recommend it if heimdall has a bar of power as he may immediately throw a special.

  R1 7 star Sassy = 3 Revives
  R3 7 star Bullseye = First try solo

  BRB works for cosmic metal. Needed 2 revives though but can be soloed. Need to have patience and do heavies to counter the unstoppable.
  
  Now off to next one
