Just pulled a 4* KM from the free 4 star crystal that Kabam just threw at me. Does he need to be awakened to be good?

    He benefits a lot from being max sig as it’s basicallg 50% of the time you have a 100% damage boost

    I use my Killmonger for everything especially with the Void synergy. He isn't duped but he still does good damage and even though the bleeds are quick, they still make an impact.

    I use him all the time, at rank 4 my 5* is amazing. He does plenty of damage and is a tank.

    I took my 6* to R2 Unawakened. Absolutely no regrets. Is he the hardest hitter Unawakened? No. But damn does he get the job done

    No he is amazing unawakened for attack. Much better awakened for defense

    I'm thinking of taking him up to 4/40 for Uncollected over Blade (without synergies). Is that a little bit crazy?

    Killmonger has great versatility. I use him all the time. He is a great attacker. His awakened ability helps alot but isnt needed

    4/40 is nothing
    Just do it
    Well it is something for me since I'll be getting Uncollected with him or Blade.

    His dupe ability just makes him have a buff where any damage done is delt to the opponent

    No, his dupe gives him a sizable attack bonus when reverb and true strike are both active.

    Been rocking a 5* Killmonger for a while now. Duped him last month. Between the time before he was duped to know; the only difference, is reverb pops up more often.

    Never played seriously this character but seems to be quite decent. Especially having WS in the same time..

    That’s because reverb doesn’t trigger at all when he’s unawakened.

    I took my 5* to R5 unduped if that tells you anything. His dupe does help especially if you try to use him on bosses or very high health champs like act 6 but still awesome unduped. I definitely was happy when I duped him but don't hesitate to rank him up.

    If Blade is awakened he will help you more with his regen. Even unduped Blade is better for a lot of things. Killmonger is good though.

    Great benefit from his signature ability, but it only makes him better, and IMO he is already great. As mentioned above, the synergy with Void is so, so good, as well as his synergy with ST, BPCW, WS. Killmonger is one of my favorite champions in the game. Has not lost any of his luster and still has the kind of utility, in one package, that a lot of players wish their favorite champion had. Rank him up, you won’t be disappointed.

    He hits very weak
    But his awakened can allow him to hit hard

    Waoo. he hits way too hard. you should check your mastery setup. Set deep wounds 3/5 atleast and see magic.
