Please DO NOT rank up any of those champs. This is your FIRST four-star Champ so it could be 8-12 months before you get another chance. There are four champs in this game who stand alone on top: Ghost (better if awakened), Doom, Kitty (if awakened) and Hercules (if awakened). Why? These champs offer great damage and also…
-
Close contest. Anyone notice a big difference when taking one of these to rank 4? Or is there not much difference for anyone?
-
As for Mordo, he is improved as an attacker. But I can’t think of anywhere j would actually use him unless I was going into a path/opponent where you get constantly stunned easily. Top tier if mystics: Doom still towers above all mystics, Claire is fantastic and maybe better than Doom with suicides. Diablo is the suicide…
-
Storm has some utility and serious damage now, especially as a horseman. But you need cable, apocalypse and pyramid x to get all out of her (and Professor x as well I guess for the special damage boost). She still isn’t a too 5 mutant, so she isn’t worth it. But she if a lot of fun.
-
Mutant class is my strongest. I completed 7.4.6, But I probably need him for exploration. Here is the roster
-
Gladiator broke Hyperion’s neck. Tossed the juggernaut around like a rag doll. Actually - how the heck is he ever defeated in the comics?
-
Here is the unanswered question: when does venompool get use if I have CGR, Corvus, Hyperion, Hercules and CM on my roster? Venom probably gets the nod over any of those cosmics if you are in a path full of spiders, since he shuts down their evade the entire fight. When does venompool get used as a top choice for that…
-
Cable is fantastic when you have a 6/65 or ran 3 6-star apocalypse. But he is the robin and apocalypse is the Batman - not the other way around. So wait until you get a 5 or 6 star version of the big guy before ranking up cable.

Best advice on here from above was to use spider ham for the 7.3 purgatory boss. I went in with a r3 6-star sig 29 dr doom and got killed quickly while only taking 5% off her health. Next I attacked with a 5 star rank 4 unawakened spider-ham and took her down in one shot. Awesome tip
-
I don’t know if anyone can out damage CGR in almost any situation. With suicides I can clear the winter soldier and captain marvel ROL fights in typically 32-36 hits every single time. Amazing damage. Plus immunities
-
I’m curious about this because I don’t use him much. What is it about archangel that would make people use a very rare generic awakening gem and rank 3 him, when there is a 5/65 sig 120 already? Is it the extra survivability or does he Really do much quicker damage? Great champ. But peope used to think you didn’t even need…

I think the fact that magneto is a cheat code against 1/3 of the content in this game makes him invaluable. It’s not just an edge, it’s a cheat code. Professor x took a while for people to realize how good he is because he takes strategy, patience and timing. Kitty is sort of the same way - Maybe in a few months people…
-
The appeal of awakening doom is he doesn’t need any sig stones except for more prestige. I’ve heard a lot about Diablo and suicides. How much does his awakening affect him with suicides and does he need a lot of sigs?
-
Agree with the others. Save those stones for herc, Angela, Medusa, etc. if both are awakened they are near max utility already.
-
-
I agree with liberty prime that the retcon will certainly reverse at some point Being a child of magneto is a big, big deal. Much bigger than their current origin. It’s like saying gamora will no longer be a daughter of thanos if he is going to be in the same universe - it only serves to make her less important, when the…

Aa was losing his spot in a lot of quest teams until apocalypse was released. That turned him into an even bigger monster and must have for bosses that take both bleed and poison damage. Hyperion is easy to play - but playing a bit a Tigra revealed a new aspect to his game play. His heavy attacks cover so much ground if…
-
Sym Supreme is awesome against anyone who bleeds and anyone who generates a lot of buffs (and if both apply, he is dynamite). Indeed, when both apply he is often better than doom or bwcv for the task. I can’t think of many instances where sorcerer supreme is better than both in a certain situation. So while Symbiote is a…

What about the gladiator? Why does he not get any love? Guy actually broke hyperions neck in a fair fight. Tossed the juggernaut around like a rag doll. Talk about an OP cosmic……..
-
Thanks for the input. I guess the lack of void love makes sense - he is really there for reversing healing, power gain, etc more than damage and you would need to somehow awaken the 6 star and then get 150+ sigs to make him useful But isn’t AA at 5/65 going to be similar to void in that you get the reduced ability accuracy…
-
Herc is significantly better than those other options. Just rank him up and awaken him when possible. Don’t get too hung up on them being the same class. I have 8 mutants at rank 5 and only 2 science champs. My first 6 star r3 champ was BWCV. When I rolled doom I did not hesitate to rank 3 him before other classes. Don’t…

Question for apoc fans - what content does a r3 apoc hep you clear that a r3 CGR would not? He is a valuable champ for synergies alone. And I used him in the SOP fight against Rogue, the micro realm variant and a few other places. Obviously CGR is built for abyss, LOL, etc. but when does apoc shine by himself? I have a 6…

What happened in the last year? I just searched for a year old post and the inverse was true https://forums.playcontestofchampions.com/en/discussion/242489/apocalypse-or-cosmic-ghost-rider-r5

Where is the Kingpin? Such an iconic villain that they made him daredevils main bad guy and even punisher. Not many villains are that prolific Anyone ever see the ‘94 Spider-Man cartoon? He was the big bad for the entire series, and all the other villains worked for him or attacked him
-
Diablo is that good even unduped and without suicides? Guess I need to play him more often.
-
A 5 star ghost carried me to cavalier status. That’s how big of a game changer she is. Max her up and awaken her then watch videos on her. She will be your most important champ for the next 5-10 months.
-
If you use psylocke with the apocalypse synergy she is much improved, and still has a way to permanently keep the opponent at 0 power forever. But magik is so much better this should not be a poll. Even a newbie can use magik effectively by just spamming sp2 for an entire fight. She can help clear a lot of content
-
Wait a minute - why does guardian get all of the tech votes and guillotine 2099 get none even though she is usually rated a tier ahead? What am I missing?
-
No class AG of any kind. (And some would say no class of any kind)
-
Good points. I guess I was thinking of the reemergence of AA when apocalypse was added to the game and the addition of HT for abyss. And the venom and she-hulk buffs came after void was already in the game. Back in the day void was one of the only counters to evading Spider-Man.
