Stryfe may live up to the hype

I mean the man is a monster. I think he honestly might even live up to the insane hype surrounding him. He hits like a monster, goes unblockable, counters evade in a really convenient way, glances hits so is really sustainable, looks amazing with great animations, has an amazing synergy partner, hell even his rampup is pretty quick as well compared to aegon. I made this post after watching Lag's stream where he went through abyss. I was a little hesitant to call stryfe a monster, but now I'm 100% on

While he managed to 1 or 2 shots certain fights, I am sure there are also some fights that require more revives compared to Aegon and the usual counters. Also, path 1 is the only path where he can get 4 genetic codes in the beginning without Cable synergy.
Nonetheless, at least on the easy path Stryfe looks like a good lane clearer and good option for Collector. I'm curious to see the damage with just Apoc synergy though.
In order to reach his optimal potential, have to have the luck to get a couple of newer champions, in addition to pulling him. At least, unlike Aegon, he doesn't require his sig to be able to carry his charges between fights.
3 Revives total, mostly because I really wanted to try and dex War Machine's Special 1 (didn't happen).
At the end of the day, Aegon & Stryfe are two different champions - and they're both absolute bangers who can make their way through a ton of content.
In my defense, I REALLY thought I was gunna get it the eighth time.
