Prediction of the next Stellar-Forged champions.

Rebark

It's difficult to say there's a pattern with such a small sample size, but the bio of the SF champions point to a trend.

Starlord is a human-Spartax hybrid. According to his own bio, his human abilities have been enhanced.

Blade is a human-vampire hybrid. According to his own bio, his supernatural abilities have been enhanced.

The first pattern is that both are hybrids of humans and another race.

The second point isn't exactly a pattern, it seems more like a trend, since it's a bit more subjective: Both were dominant champions in their respective eras.

I noticed this and wondered: Which other champions would fit these two points? If there is a pattern, what would be the next ones?

Well, the next one seems rather obvious: Scarlet Witch.

Originally she's a mutant, in more recent stories, she's human. She fits the second point; she was one of the most dominant champions in the game at the same time as Starlord.

But if we consider that all mutants are hybrids, another champion would fit both points: Magik.

I think it's unlikely that the next Stellar Forged will be anything other than one of these two. I believe it will be the mutant Scarlet Witch.

If it's one of the two, I believe it's safe to say that it's a pattern: Champions who were among the best of their time and who are hybrids.

In that case, I could only think of one option: Quake.
She is both human and inhuman. She was probably the most dominant champion that ever existed.

There would be two possibilities:
A cosmic Quake, if her inhuman characteristics were enhanced.
A tech Quake, if her human characteristics were enhanced.

I would bet on the cosmic Quake.
All Stellar Forged champions so far have lost something and gained something.
Starlord lost his practically infinite ramping up.
Blade lost his AAR and debuff reduction.

Considering what Kabam thinks about Quake, I'd bet she'll lose the evade. There would probably be a noticeable change to the kit.

Scarlet Witch should involve some kind of prowess, power efficiency, or daunt and should lose the "RNG".

Does anyone know of any other champion in the game that at least fits the first pattern? A human who also has another race?

quicksilver is the son of magneto, therefore he could also be mutant, he even is mutant in some x-men movies. (was he as dominant as blade or scarlet witch? no, but he was a summoner choice champion in 2022, and he is quite a good champion overall)

ghost is both a science experiment gone wrong, and also wears a tech suit, so i believe she could be released in stellar forged as science class. and she does fit the list of dominant champions in the game.

honestly, the best picks for me would be science ghost, tech quake (or mutant quicksilver/scarlet witch)

You really need 3 data points to determine a trend or pattern. We should find out who the next SF champ is soon (maybe through a teaser) but most likely in the next livestream. You could be on to something…just too early to tell.

There is possibly a third pattern to consider which may help with predictions. Each Stellar Forged so far has jumped classes in the class wheel. For example, Star Lord jumped Mutant to become Skill. Blade jumped Science to become Mystic. I think existing abilities that could fit in another class help with this idea. For example, OG Star-Lord had combo related abilities which does fit with the Skill class.

The only champion to not follow this pattern would SF Doom but the reason for that could be that he is the final champion.

How about science Ghost

CheeseMaster482

If Science Ghost is the next stellar forged then the pattern is old kings of the contest. Seems l

We didn't have a mutant with the previous chases so I think one is guaranteed. Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver and Kamala are the viable options here. Based on the class wheel jumping pattern I think it's Kamala

destroy456

Honestly its Either Mutant Wanda or Mutant Kamala as the next stellar forge, their not gonna do Stellar Forge Illyana when they just released her 7* not even 2 months ago.

tbf they released jean grey, reworked phoenix, and dark phoenix within a 4 month period so it's not impossible

I'd love to see Tech Archangel, but I think the next 2 champs will be female.

We have 3 data points. We know SF Doom is Cosmic

Itsfaizee

One thing I'm sure of is that the next one will definitely going to be a female. If they are going for champions that were OP back in the day, it can be Ghost, Quake, Proxima, or maybe a Scarlet Witch but mutant. Last one might be Aegon..

The clear pattern you're missing is that blade, star lord and Doom all have abilities that fit into different classes. Blade has power gain and regen when blocking, star lord has dot and combo based damage and Doom has his big fury and power gain

Wanda IS NOT a mutant. If she weren't Mystic, she should be Science like Quicksilver.

Captain Marvel/Ms Marvel is half human half Kree she could Science.

Vision is a "synthetic humanoid", an Android if you will, half human half robot. Nebula might fit into this as well.

Gwenpool is now considerated a mutant on the comics.

Mighty Thor is half human half god.

Apocalypse uses Eternal technology.
