Degeneration counter

I did ultron variant 3.2 degen path (1.1% degen that is neither passive nor active) last night, and after searching forum couldn't find a counter (if there are aby, please enlighten me).
Although I'm an endgame player, I brought a 4* 4/40 unduped Ghulk to 3.2 to face starburst as I don't have a viable 5* starburst counter. My whole team was dead by the second fight so I figured use ghulk before team revive. FYI his face me mechanic does not trigger on this particular degen node.
Anyway, turns out that 1.1% degen is on a timer, and Ghulk survived the degen timer and I was able to solo Colossus with him. I guess the reason for this is that his health pool is so low that Salve (+recovery) masteries actually kept him alive past what the timer probably thinks is dead time.
Has anyone had any experience with this, and are there any champs that are viable for this approach? Appreciate in most scenarios you need to fight perfectly, but it sounds like a better alternative than unavoidable death every time. It actually works out on this particular path as there's power gain on the opponent so no need to intercept just bait all sp1s.

I've also test a 4* 3/30 quake and again she survived the degen (with salve+recovery masteries) so any champ is viable as long as the health pool is low.
After degen timer was out and Regen done
Tip for Gulk: Make sure your crowd excitement is at 100 when doing and Sp2 to get a stun where you can get another combo in.
