Ive been stuck on Uncollected Thorns for a week now and im all out of ideas. Maybe you guys can offer some tips.What do you guys suggest against Thorns Nodes? What Champs do you suggest? What methods? Just a little insight would be much appreciated

Champs with high damage output in a single hit (Corvus for example. Less hits = less times you'll take thorns damage).
Champions with high physical resistance to reduce thorns damage.
Champions that place a weakness on the opponent and reduce the thorns damage (Cap IW synergy with science champions)
Champions that can lower deffensive ability accuracy.
Black widow: High sig
Quake: if you have mastered her fighting style
AA: Duped is a big bonus....stack neuros
Blade: with danger sense active
Void: Minimal hits, stack debuffs, duped helps
Hyp: sit back and spam l1s, fights are lengthy
Crossbones: Stack at least 3 furies before hitting
Voodoo: Regen and neurotoxin
Magik: Awakened, high sig+ MD, Parry till you get one bar of power then hit when limbo is active
Blades danger sense for quite a few fights.
Also max pacify and max stun duration helps a LOT
A certain segment of the player community gets tired of the monotonous grind every so often. Kabam knows this and this is where the casual spender gets weeded out from the whales.
If you want to continue you gotta move from being a causal spender (dolphin) or F2P into being a shark.
(Don’t whale on your own money 2yrs ago ppl were spending thousands of dollars on top 4* champs, which are almost worthless now, same will be true of 5* in about a year or so)
Sharpen your knowledge of the game and know every move the computer AI will do before it does it. Know which champs to bring to which nodes, be able to beat the content with 3* Champs then post vids. Not everyone has the time to do this Kabam knows this too so they don’t have to recode the AI for all of their champs.
Or stop playing competitively or just quit.
I had issues with Darkhawk first two weeks, but since they fixed the interaction issues I completed it no problem. I used GP/IMIW/Domino for first half thorns lane, then Magik/Magik/Domino for last three fights. I suggest you farm heals from RoL which is quick and easy and then keep calm and play on.
Stay out of the Maze though... that’s a item eater compared to UC EQ.
I ended up using Void most of the time, but I did also try it with Blade; Void was faster for me. In both cases the key was the fact that you take thorns damage when you make contact by landing an attack, but blocked attacks don't generate thorns damage and when you block them it also doesn't generate thorns damage. So the strategy with Void was block them, and attack into block to push them back away from the wall, and let the debuffs kill them. When I had enough energy I would launch an SP1 or SP2 to speed things up a bit: you take a little thorns damage but not much. With Blade, you block them to deal Blade's bleed damage and you use SP1 when you have the energy which also takes a little thorns but not much, and Blade can regen that back. Warning: never use SP2 with Blade. Too much contact, too much thorns damage at the beginning of the attack.
