I was wondering the same, who is a good counter to Hype on this node? Last war we faced a R4 5* Hype, I backed up one of my alliance members who was struggling. I used an R4 5* Magik, Hype was at 50% health when I went in and it took almost the whole 3 minutes and 132 just to take him down. Even if I avoided parrying him Magik's L2 kept triggering the Masochism.
the point imo people is that kabam doesnt want you to 100% the map, so high tier alliances should change their views on doing 100% every single time ... personally i would make it even harder for some nodes just so we cant do 100% so it's not expected
I wondered about Void, but was not sure he could get the debuffs applied fast enough. Wouldn't the masochism prevent him from landing most of these debuffs? Also, wouldn't he trigger the 300% power gain from cornered when he does apply the first debuff (not sure if it they count as a DOT effect)? I know after a while he can reverse the power gain, but Hype would gain power like crazy at first.
I had the same problem Last war. I dont have A defenitive answer yet but i decided to take my 6* hood from defense so i can use him in attack. The stagger is considered A passive debuff that is not A DOT effect (tried it in 5.2.4 to verify it doesnt Trigger masochism) so i hope it can handle the power gain
Void does not work what so ever and stark will do some damage but hype continues to gain power faster and faster because of the node so eventually u will die regardless
Void does indeed work, you've just got to parry a lot so your own debuffs aren't ones triggering Maso, and Voids debuffs do not trigger cornered because it's not the debuffs applying DOT it's Void. Sparky has been my main choice for that node, build poise charges and he runs over them. That is in T2
I’ve tried my void and hype just gains power to fast and same with stark u can build up but then u are forced to stop every second since u have to bait special

you really think that? high tiers will allways do 100% no matter what... and if you die a lot, your out.. simple... the problem is that this node is too buffed... i understand some hard on this.. but harder then the other mini boss's and boss? really?...

Haven't faced it yet so can't comment on the difficulty of it .... but just want to touch on that 100% comment.
That node is sitting at a place where you HAVE to pass, there is no way to go behind it. So, it isn't like those slashed tires nodes in early AW where you can skip it and still take out boss.
yap.. so of course high tier aliances will force and make 100%... this is not forcing to not making 100%.. its more force to spend more on such bs node... its fun to get harder/challenging fights.. but its not fun if you make like impossible to pass it without spending... or pass without spend but you must have 1 specific champ (in a list of 100 available...)

Sabretooth, with the KM/BPCW synergy, is one of the best options for this node. Just don’t use his specials as they cause bleed which procs cornered. If it’s a Mephisto, Void is the best option followed closely by Gulk. I’ve used Sabretooth against KM and KP and both were easy 1 shots. Also 1 shot Mephisto with Void and it was one of the easiest AW fights I’ve had. I’m about to take a r4 sig 127 Magik and debating between using Void or Sabretooth. Gulk would have probably been a better option, however I needed Void for a r4 IMIW on the next node.

Blade probably... Don't parry, don't use specials

There really aren't a lot of good options... Blade is really the best against Mephisto I would think.

It's easily harder than a mini-boss
