I love both these characters a lot if both are unduped medusa wins. If both are duped does Hyperion have a chance?
In a any game mode unknown scenario with unknown nodes who you bringing to the fight?
Medusa duped or Hyperion duped in an unknown scenario?

    I love them both. Having both at r3. If I pull a cosmic gem from epoch, most likely Medusa goes to r4. They're both extremely similar in ways offensively, but different defensively. Duh. Hype loves to hold power & I can't tell you how many times Medusa's auto-block has caught me. I just think the true accuracy & armor shatter put her slightly better than Hype. Can't go wrong with either

    If you have the gamora relic, Hyperion is good, but he sucks without it

    I have both r3. Medusa is much better.

    Her Armor Shattered made Bastion completely useless lol. I just really wish she had any sort of advantage over Sentinel. That specific ability for Sentinel's buff really makes me mad cause it feels like there's absolutely no way around it.

    I've been sitting on both Medusa and Hyperion at R2 and was considering taking one to R3 but wasn't sure who. I also have a 7* Serpent - but he's not duped. Serpent over the other two to R2 or naw?

    Just throw a sp3 and boom. Sentinel becomes a toy like every other robo.

    Can confirm Medusa is the best.

    Have her at r3, she's better than my scream at r3. Idk, I really want hype though, both aging finer than Mrs. Parrrker!

    Tons of cosmics are getting other ways of getting around armor now

    I’m gonna go Medusa. Dual threat. Utility for days. Wish I had her instead of sentry tbh. Lucky enough to have knull tho

    She can still armor shatter with her special 3

    I’m in the same boat. Expect I also have vox duped (Medusa and Hyperion duped too). Medusa has always been my go to. Vox doesn’t seem to have the damage

    Its not really fair to Hyperion as Medusa just got a facelift with her buff so she's more up-to-date and Hyperion has been the same for about 8 years.

    I own both as 7*s. She is better, but Hyperion is still a god.

    I know others have said it but just sp3 and then build up to the next sp3 while he can’t gain power and keep doing that until he is down.

    In war I typically start out with the 33% power boost if I have it to get a head start. Once I get sp3, it lowers ability accuracy and combat power by 100%, basically shutting off any nodes sentinel is on. It takes a while since I don’t think you can get critical hits while he is armor shattered (at least I haven’t been able to), but as long as you have your next sp3 once the armor shatter runs out, you can basically ignore the node for the rest of the fight.

    Hype with 2016 kit is something else.

    There's something relaxing about hyperion just standing there arms folded. Like Archangels neurotoxin you can just squish them without doing much. Then again Medusa spinning her hair and that sp2 is satisfying. They don't even need to be a robot she's a bully against most

    Hyperion for sure. I love Medusa, actually, at one point she was my favorite champion in the game. I have them both currently duped an R3 but when it comes down to it, Hyperion is still just a versatile champion. Need to put on debuffs, SP1, need to gain buffs, heavy (or just wait). The constant power game, potential nuke of the SP2, Regen, if (lol) A.I. is bad, he can be a menace on defense, the dude really is just an awesome and probably un-ageble champ. Sure he's not the creme d'la creme anymore, but he is, and will always probably be a decent choice for most things.
