Well. After analysing all the trends... any champs that use synergies to boost their efficacy are immediately dropped a tier lower than what they should be. So he's probably a top 10.
Quake, Ghost, Nick, Ægon, Omega, Magneto, Doom, Claire, Hyperion, CGR, and CMM are all better than Colossus.

Only one I'd debate is better is Omega. Not saying Omega is bad. His ability to bypass passive damage is great. But that's more or less the only time I find myself using Omega these days. If there's a Magik or an Electro.
Omega is a high teir champ, which is the only synergy team he needs. Having omega with always isn't a burden unlike most synergy teams. Red hulk, wasp etc.

Only time I use omega is for electros if I can't use falcon.
Not many champs can have 40k heavys quickly in the fight. 100k+ damage sp2(when crits and 15 armor.) I would say fury, doom, ghost, quake are better. Magneto and aegon are close, but have req. Like aol or metal champs.
My god, people in here actually believe Colossus is better than OR? And that he is only used to bypass passive damage? As if that's not enough anyways!? My faith in this community plummets more and more every day. Omega is leagues above Colossus. Colossus has immunities, armor up, and he hits hard. Yeah, that's great. But it's not enough to make him a top 5 champ or even a top 10 champ.
He has great damage,but not the utility that takes to be top 5.
No Utility? Lol. You're not even Cav.
I used Colossus for my Act 6 completion a lot but not as much as Doom and Quake. He also is the one I used against the Grandmaster because it was easy to trigger all the prompts with him. I just popped suicides so he gets used less but when I need him, he does what he does best.
Bleed immune for Biohazard, Caltrops, and a lot of bleed champs. When awakened, additional armors for additional damage. Incinerate and Coldsnap immune for Freezer Burn, Backblast, Aarkus, Ice Phoenix, and Iceman etc. Indefinite Exhaustion from SP3 that will make him more tanky than he already is. This one is good for a Labyrinth run or long fights. You can use him in Buffed Up. Yellow numbers? Check.
Is he Top 5? Nah, I don't think so. But he's definitely a top option. A lot of people just don't like him because of his boring playstyle.

There shouldnt even be a debate whether Omega is better. With or without suicides.
I didnt find myself ever using duped colossus because personally i dont think his utility is even as close to as valuable as Omegas.
Without synergies, Colossus is essentially a cheap knockoff of Cap IW. Both are Tanky/Sustainable and have immunities/shrugging debuffs but cap iw can do so much more

Is he top 5? I don't know, but I do know he's the best mutant.
People who use the 'change my mind' meme either just want to argue (read: troll) or are dead set on their opinion to an almost irrational degree.
Not gunna be trying to change your mind at all, even though I personally disagree.
Play the champs that you enjoy playing, whether it be Colossus or Karnak.

Colossus definitely in top10.
