    You could get mystic dispersion for Magik and get off your L2 much faster. I've been using Magik though and haven't re-unlocked MD because I'm not using as many mutants these days. Hit him a couple times while he is blocking and back away and he will usually fire a special. You shouldn't need to bait that many before you can power lock him. On the easier chapter you can just restart the path if you are unsuccessful. Hawkeye would be another option. On the easier level I used GR for him sometimes.

    I used a cosmic 150% power boost and a 5/50 hyperion, launch sp2 and hope for stun then did sp2 until he died

    I used iceman. Ice armor makes L3 trivial.

    No Luke, no Magik, no Iceman, no Hawkeye, SW is 3/30. Guess I’m screwed.

    Did lightweight easy, moved to heavy, destroyed magik in first fight, then got destroyed by Hyperion, he just would not use his specials. I was using by 5/65 magik . Quit and will try again when I've farmed units.

    ogHulk/Void/BW/Thor Ragn/Heimdall.
    You have first indestructible Hulk at -20% +1 bar of power and second indestructible (Heimdall) at 1%. You can imagine a max sig level hulk at 1% health...HULK SMASH!!!!!!!!! Puny Hype

    You just need the ogHulk as 5* or at least 4* . Thor Ragn 4* and the others can even be 3*
    If you get KOed, you just us a lev 1 revive. He will come in fight with indest/1 bar and Hulk smash.

    Haven't tried yet, but wouldn't doc ock be a solid option, especially with the increased power gain?

    I think he would. But you would need to bait a bit so you can SP3 and drag out your power block.

    I used SW, she nullified his power gain and power locked him but he still gained power to S3.

    Do you have Luke Cage? His exhaustion slows down power gain rate so its more manageable of a fight

    My most successful champ against him was Spark. He just kept taunting him into using his specials.

    What's crazy is some of the best champs to use against HYPERION actually have a class disadvantage to him.

    Stark Spidey: He can build TAUNTS that cause Hyperion to fire of specials.

    Vulture: I believe his S2 attaches THERMAL FEEDBACK that drains power while also dealing damage. He's like Guillotine with the S2 that reverse REGEN. except he reverse POWER GAIN!!

    Thermal Feedback burns 25% of any power gained and deals direct damage based on the power burned. So when thermal feedback is applied, Hyperion will gain less power and any power gained will cause damage to him. But his power gain will not be reversed.

    It does, but he then stacks up Cosmic charges, which give him Attack and Resistance bonuses; so she's not the perfect solution.

    Stagger works brilliantly on Hyperion. Haven't done the Champion's Clash yet; but actually Juggernaut is my go-to for beating Hype. Jane Foster or Hood would be good options, too; or Symbiote Supreme if you've got him. Just never let the Power Gain happen in the first place!

    I use either SW or Mephisto for Hyperion. SW play normally, Mephisto spam sp1 so he doesn't get his power gains and bait his specials. If it's a long enough fight that you're out of souls, save up for an sp3 and use it once Hyp gets 2 bars of power. It'll buy you a little extra time.

    I was having the same problem so I left magic in but I added five star Iceman to go against him, wasn't perfect but did the job. Tried Dr. Oct but he wasn't getting in enough damage and one slip up and you lose power lock

    Needing RNG to get stun but maybe an option I must attempt. If failed, I am just not ready yet.

    I also tried Hood (4☆ unduped) and no success on path 2 lightweight.
