Struggling w/who to use Science 7 Awakening Gem

Hey y'all! I drew the Science awakening gem from the realm reward, and honestly it's an issue of abundance because I definitely feel this has the most opportunity for me to use, but as such, I'm pretty darn stumped. I use Silk all the time cause she's R3. I know that Titania and especially Photon would also benefit from the dupe. I've heard that Count Nefaria is a beast but that he really relies on the dupe and also I never use Void, but that's also because I've had him unduped. So, who should I choose? (And why in the comments if you could be so kind)

Especially since you say you use her the most

Thanks! I can also immediately R3 any other champ and the reason I haven't had people like Photon up there is cause she isn't duped.

Awakening count is stupid imo since he stays at titan until June and you're highly likely to dupe him via crystals.

Photon really needs high sig to be a tough defender. Silk has great utility at sig1. Go with silk.

Wiat void could be a good call too but he's in a small pool and is easier to awaken like count

I gave mine to Nefaria. He’s such a beast, at sig 95 his ionic overcharge triggers if the defender has 5/5 mystic dispersion. It’s very nice to have but he isn’t reliant on the dupe so if you don’t awaken him, he’s still very strong unduped. The heal steal is nice but his regen off the sp1 is very strong. And he can get into ionic overcharge pretty easily.

Photon would be a more dangerous defender if you awaken her too.

Save it for spoticcus maximus

I would think the opposite, since you can only open the loyalty crystal once every eternity and it most of the time lands on a useless pull like extra sigs on Aarkus

If I'm using Silk regularly and never really encountering the need for slow to stop unstoppable, what scenarios or quests or matchups does that really benefit her?

It happens all the time in incursions. That's probably it honestly.

If you haven't seen the need for it in regular questing, you're probably fine then with an unduped silk.

Silk’s slow is more about specific champs than nodes or quests. Rintrahs are about to be everywhere, Sassy can be difficult with his unstoppable, etc. Depends on the level of your progression, whether pvp is interesting at all, etc.

You need to pull Luke.

I'll gladly give you my Silk dupe for that Thing. Imo Void is the more deserving, great signature ability and by rarity

I am desperate for dupes on champs worth sigs the most and one of them is thing (along with kindred and Photon)

Doesn't duping Photon allowing her to shut down Rintrah's Neutralize benefit more? Or no.

And of course out of all of these I just duped Titiania from a crystal, the one with basically no votes lol.

It really helps countering thing and sassy.
