6* Dark Phoenix

Was curious to see how the 6* Dark Phoenix would fare as a defender in the worst possible matchup for her.
Basically, yeah, I will be banning both the 6* and 7* versions whenever I see them.

I wish I could be happy for you, but I spent my entire stash of Units and came up short of her so....enjoy? Lol.

The Cavalier crystals count towards her 6* milestone, and there are 34 cav crystals available in the Moonshot solo event. Have you gotten all of those already?

Yes, and spent 7500 Units, and repurposed the ones I got in the Milestones, and still need another 20 Crystals. I can't justify spending $160 Cdn. on a 6* Champ, and I'm not going to grind 6K Units (minus the Milestones), so the whole Event has left a bitter taste in my mouth.

That sucks, I'm sorry.
Maybe there'll be another source of Cav crystals made available before the event ends, but overall I agree the 6* isn't worth the units.

Yea 6* dark phoenix will require about 13k units

7* dark phoenix will require about 37k units

500,000 battlechips will yield around 1000 units

Thanks. I suppose it's on me for not doing some simple math before committing my Units, but it still took the wind out of my sails.

How is she compared to someone like Serpent, Maestro or DThanos on defense?

EdisonLaw

Also is there a duel ID for Dark Phoenix?

Shathra isn’t a true hard counter, she can deal with a lot of her mechanics but can’t avoid that nova flame damage.

So who is the best counter?

Atm just nuke as no real fast counter to deal with nova flames

Hood or Diablo.

An awakened hood can take her out without her throwing a special.

Diablo is slower but can finish with high health with him placing poisons on her.

Hood stocks through the roof. Everyone should invest in the mystic king

Ok, I don't have those, so the only one I tried against her who finished close to 100% was Kindred.

Yeah kindred can work too with his atrophy but he’s a tier below the other 2 as far as counters go. Especially in a competitive arena.

Yeah Hood is popular but I haven't seen Diablo in a BG deck hardly ever. But maybe that will change now.

@Emilia90 very glad I followed your lead and R4d mine!

Can you explain how to take her with Hood? I can't figure out the rotation

Rayven5220

This is making me want to get to the milestone to get her as a 6*. 😭
It's tough as a mostly ftp that only has 10k units currently.

JESUSCHRIST

I just got 6* dark phoenix

It took 12,600 units net spent after taking into account the free units from the milestones

Going to test dark phoenix as defender in battlegrounds

I'm in gamma 4 now, dangerous territory filled with fat whales decks

What sig is your hood? The higher the sig, the higher the power steal

Wow, I can't even get her with 10k? Damn...
Good reason to save my units for sure now, haha

jdschw

Yeah, man, I've got the 13k units, but it seems like such a high price for a 6* dark phoenix. I'd also get a 7* Heart of Fire champ, but pretty much all the other milestones are worthless. Honestly, I don't think it's worth it. I would pay the 13k units if that got me to the 7* version.

I think abs man works very well with unst reduction and magma energy resistance

Yup, good call. He is a hard counter actually.
