Founder's Box awakening gem use?

I ended up getting Jane Foster and X23 (neither of which I will be ranking)

and Hulkling and Scorpion - both of which will be r4 at some point. Neither of these two really need their dupe, but we just got this awakening gem that can only be used on a Founder's Box champ - who would you use it on?

I would say Nimrod. Giving it to him with high sig straight up buffs his damage by a factor of 1.35x

Scorpion is really nice to have but most of what you want to use him for can already be done without the dupe.

what this guy said. But I have a question now, I rank 4’d and max sig’d scorpion. I only have 1 key left to acquire and it’ll give me hulkling o have everyone else so if I do get it, should I use the awakening gem on hulkling or should I use it on nimrod

Nimrod and Valk want max sig for their best benefits. If you're going to invest the free 100 sigs from the realm event, these are the two to go with.

Okay, Scorpion and Hulkling are essentially 7* versions of their 6* selves. I'm not seeing any new utility or abilities, and neither of their sig abilities seem essential. Why is Scorpion better to awaken than Hulkling?

why would their be new abilities or utility based on rarity?

hulklings sig ability is not very impactful whereas nimrods makes a drastic increase to his damage

Some 7* champs are improved from their other tiers, like Juggs.
