    Is any of them duped? Better include that to make poll easier to decide. If undupe Hyperion is better Imo, but dupe Corvus is better since he can't die from passive damage like bane/bleed ect at 1% health. He's very skill based. So imo unduped is hype, duped is Corvus

    Imo, hyperion.... he doesn’t need any build up, he hits like a truck, incinerates, stuns and heals.... i love corvus too, but for long fights he’s just not that efficient

    Seatin has a 5/65 Hyperion that he loves and he just ranked Corvus the #1 cosmic, #2 Medusa, and #3 Hyperion. Lagacy also just named Corvus the #1 cosmic and in the higher tiers Corvus is way more common than Hyp. Hyperion prestige also isn't very good unlike Cirvus', which is one of the best.

    Hyperion may be generically better and doesnt suffer against havoc or mr sinister like corvus would, but i still prefer corvus for both his burst damage and his ability to armor break on parry, which greatly helps against emma frost, bpcw and red skull and the armor explosion node thing.

    It depends a bit what you want them for. If you want someone who can slug it out with a tougher opponent, with no opportunity to stack up previous victories, Hyperion is your guy.

    Corvus can struggle against stronger opponents if he doesn't have the chance to stack cruelty buffs. There are also occasional opponents (like Mr Sinister; or (oddly) Ant-Man) well equipped to counter him. On the other hand, he's an absolute legend in Alliance or other quests where he can take down one or two target champions to stack some Cruelty - his damage is insane!

    I'm an Uncollected, but not End-game player, so mostly using 3/45s and 4/55s I have both Corvus and Hyperion Awakened at 5/50. My Corvus comes out to play alongside them all the time; but I can't remember the last time I took Hyperion into a quest

    Disagree. Unduped, it is Corvus all day. If Hype is awakened it is a different story.

    But these generic questions make it difficult to provide a sufficient answer. They are two very different champs, and are both better than the other for certain things.

    Do you run suicides? If not, then Hype is more well rounded and “better” I would say. If you run suicides, then Corvus is very tough to beat for a lot of content involving shorter fights and questing.

    It all depends on your progression and your roster.
