Overhyped/Overrated??

Good evening, I’ve had this discussion with quite a few friends and I’m curious if any of you find certain champions to be overhyped or overrated. Here’s how it will go... just list a champion you believe to receive too much praise or where your alliance buddy’s are down your throat in saying who you should spend your AG on but you don’t believe it to be worthy. And again, remember this is mostly a matter of opinion. So don’t bash anyone because they believe your favorite champion doesn’t deserve the praise they constantly get.

Not a popular opinion at all. Cue the disagrees
I did state it was a matter of opinion and although I agree with most of your choices I must say Corvus is the only one I disagree with with. I feel Blade is beginning to lose more and more of his leverage, never thought much of Ghost Rider but Iceman is an interesting case. Just low on the damage out put but his coldsnap and frostbites are beastly
Ghost rider
Dr. Zola
Way too much commitment (awakened ability, synergies) and only effective against villian champions. Which is good, but even after getting the Danger Sense his damage doesn't even come close to the likes of Nick Fury or a ramped up Ægon.
Starky (useful, great damage, but no sustainability or immunities)
Quake (no immunities, too many evade counters)
Magik (power control and that's about it. Good, but nowhere near Sym Supreme, Omega, Corvus, Ghost, etc.)
To those complaining about Corvus, you've got to strategize. He's a ramp-up champ. You've got to know how to strategize. He's not for long fights either.
I always saw Starky as more of a boss killer than a sustainable questing champ, but he does go down a bit too easily
Quake... can’t say much for evade counters, but I never liked her because kills took too long and she felt too passive for me to enjoy her
Magik... well she’s reliable I suppose. Personally I prefer Voodoo, but there are times when Magik shines
Anyways, I never liked Aegon. I took my 4* to r3, but I never saw much use for him besides his damage, which I already have Starky for. Even at a 200+ combo in RoL, I couldn’t see much utility that justified bringing him into anything other than RoL and LoL. Also never saw the “godly” damage of OR and I just bring him for Electro or Korg counters occasionally. Maybe it’s because I don’t run suicides. Finally, there’s Shulk. I can’t deny that she’s good, but it’s a bit difficult keeping furies up against Medium or Small opponents, so I just don’t see her as valuable as people think except in a few niche counters.
I'm not saying she's weak, but she doesn't compare to, say, Ghost. Doesn't belong in the #1 champ discussion
He needs duped & high sig otherwise he is really mediocre
I'm pretty sure it's just me, not knowing how to use him effectively maybe (although I've watched videos how to...), but I find him underwhelming and his playstyle very annoying. Something about having to wait, and wait, and bait, and dex, and wait, and bait and dex, and wait some more for the power to come... by the time I reach the SP3, I'm so bored I start getting hit by mistake.
