hulk need to be duped tho to be any good
Perhaps I should be grateful for first two.
Karnak will sit there until as such time Disney make an Inhumans Billion $ franchise & Kabam buff him.
In that case you don’t really need him. In my case i use my 6* Karnak in war because theres Modoks and Spideys on my path. I have better champs then him but none of them have true strike so i just smash with Karnak. If/when i get KM then he’s out the door lol until then im stuck
He's worth between 18k - 25k points in arena when you're up to 3x score. That's mostly the point of 5 stars you don't rank up much.
As a defender (and when duped), his best placement is likely on nodes with Limber. It's possible that people will forget his ability to shrug stuns quickly. Add that to the limber node and a maxed out limber mastery and he may just catch someone off guard.
Unduped, his best application seems to be against armored champs as he crits a lot and can really cut through armor and physical resistance pretty well. Outside of that, his best use is likely just synergies for Black Bolt and Medusa.
Karnak is a high crit rate/glass cannon champ who got the short end of the stick with the 12.0 change along with other glass cannons like Iron Fist, Electro and Rocket Raccoon. Diminishing returns and challenger rating really cut down the effectiveness of these champs and they have yet to see an update to bring them back to their former glory.
Let’s hope they get fixed!
