Cosmic needs Venom.

[@andyfox2057]

Ace barking as you landed on Wolfie was 🤌🏼

[@frostychihuahua5331]

Ace was amped up for wwbn lol

[@Ercarret]

Two champions that you didn't mention but that I'm strongly considering: Venom and Black Cat. My r2 Venom has been SHREDDING ever since I ranked him up. He's not the flashiest but he gets the job done. Likewise, I love my 6* Black Cat. I think she was the first champ I ever ascended but I simply couldn't pull the 7*. However, I just opened a Loyalty crystal and finally pulled her, so that settled who I'd use a potential skill gem on. Or it would have, if you hadn't been rude enough to mention how an r3 Mantis would be cool. Suddenly I'm doubting myself because I really did use to enjoy Mantis back when 7*s were first released. She was my first pull and I used her a ton. The reason I haven't used her as much lately is that the healthpools have run away from her, but ranking her up would solve that problem. Overall, I've had some absolutely filthy luck lately. My three latest 7* pulls have been Photon, Silk and Black Cat, all of which could be in the running for a 2-3 gem depending on which class gets it. If I get a science one, I'll have to choose between Hulk, Photon and Silk. That'll be...hard.

[@julienl.3327]

Black cat with Black Widow relic destroys many matches in les than 30 sec

[@Ercarret]

@@julienl.3327 Yeah, she's a beast. The only thing that's sad (in a "sad" kind of way) about a newly-pulled 7* Black Cat is that I don't have access to her awakened ability. I didn't realize how powerful it is until I took my 6* to sig 200 and saw that I could evade almost every special attack in the game. You're basically immortal in Battlegrounds unless you screw up majorly.

[@julienl.3327]

Yeah I could never awaken mine.. Venom is sig 60 though, such a menace, even on defence..

[@OxygeN_610]

I cant understand why no mention of thoses .. @lagacy why ?

[@mikaelta7489]

I took photon unduped to r3 over hulk sig 60 and I don’t regret it, if you get science I recommend photon, she’s good at r2 but you reeeaaallyy feel the jump to r3.

[@nicholasjarrell]

Hulk at r3 is crazy. Hulk at r3 with suicides on should be illegal. It’s actually mind blowing how good he is since his buff. I mean to me…best 7* at r3 in the game. High health pool, some utility, and so much damage you almost can’t fail. There’s no better feeling than knowing you can’t lose lol

[@Supersaiyanprime24]

With suicides he was hitting 65k mediums he’s insane. Glad I took mine to r3.

[@starwarstairique]

Hulk without suicides at R3 should be illegal

[@nicholasjarrell]

@@Supersaiyanprime24 I was pretty well into the rotation but i hit a 139k heavy the other day lol

[@taylorcooley9957]

@@Supersaiyanprime24 I got a 125k medium attack crit after Hulks Sp3 with suicides on. It's awesome. No regrets taking Hulk to rank 3.

[@starwarstairique]

He’d be an amazing rank 3. I’d do the same bro

[@mrs.potato586]

“BAN” LOL

[@theshinydome1992]

As the owner of a r3 venom, his exclusion from this list is a travesty. He shreds so many matchups. If they bleed, they die.

[@phatphish4866]

Ditto

[@God_emperor_Doom]

30:51 FACTS💯 He was my fastest rank 5 and ascended champ on this game. He is currently the best character overall. He got the same hype as Dr doom who came out in 2019 Cgr in 2020 Hercules and kitty pryde in 2021 Hulkling, Scorpion and Galan in 2022

[@bossmansmeagzog8048]

I feel like when you make these videos you only make them for like the tippy top players (who probably don’t care about vids like this to begin with) and/or players that only care about bgs. Bgs aren’t the only game mode and while (even for me) they are a consideration for a rank up, they aren’t my only consideration. I feel like ranking a purely defensive champion for one of your first r3’s is one of the worst moves you can make. Sure, they might be good in bgs (if they don’t have a counter) but so are dual threat champions (who are twice as useful as a pure attacker or pure defender) and pure attackers, so why not rank one of them that you’ll use everywhere? To me, for my first rank ups, i always try to go with dual threats because you are getting the most bang for your buck. To each their own, and if you like to rank champs that you don’t even actually play and you just set on d, then go for it, but i dont know that everyone else does or should have that outlook.

[@hassamamama2515]

I think you’re missing the part about this being his personal picks. Rank whoever you want and go about your day, this is his opinion.

[@Supersaiyanprime24]

Yea you definitely don’t want a r3 korg for your first r3.

[@julienl.3327]

I could agree of he didn’t said it his his BG oriented opinion, for BG defense.. etc multiples times during the video.

[@monsterslayer6598]

I agree with you mate

[@brobs0463]

You’re right. My first R3 was Shuri. An excellent duel threat champ and in my opinion is one of the best 7 stars and the best tech champ. So definitely do your own research and decide who you like the most in your roster

[@jebasta123]

Thoughts on Gorr as an R3? Mine's rank 2 and duped

[@hughjasoul7698]

Great video bro. If you make a vid of top 20 defenders with their best counters you will break the innerwebs

[@hansenjacob545]

For my roster as of now before I explore Act 8 these are my picks for each class of 7* I have. I already have 3 7* R3 being Spider-Ham, America Chavez and Shang-Chi cause he's my favorite champ in the game. Tech- Shocker, Iron Man or Red Skull Cosmic- Vox or Knull Mystic- Sasquatch or Werewolf by Night Science- Hulk or The Overseer Skill- Korg or Killmonger Mutant- Domino or Prof X- my favorite Bullseye counter.

[@sousabeast]

I just pulled 7* Prowler yesterday. I have the t4a to r3 him, but I am just waiting for 8.4 to be finished to get that gem. Maybe I can r3 two champs after today!

[@smoothcriminal4618]

7:00 yes yes i do love Juggs

[@chriss.4306]

Have a R3 duped Professor X. In my opinion best X Magica attacker. In particular with mutant powerboost. Bullseye, Killmonger, Gorr, ... Professor X don't care. (Except Serpent, or node 40 and 49) Very underrated in my opinion.

[@Saravanan-tb7qh]

Silk is damn underrated 💯💯

[@arjishchowdhury1898]

Came here after pulling 7* onslaught from the titan crystal, just speechless and looking forward to optimizing his use to the best.

[@uvsingh6564]

In cosmic I feel that sersi is really underrated I was lucky enough to get her and I can say even at rank 1 she hits pretty hard and also pretty good defence

[@LarryDiamond-te3yt]

In agreement mostly. Feel you were a bit skimpy on the cosmic side. Venom would be an awesome 2 way in rank 3. And has that great synergy with Scorpion, so more value around the contest. Those 2 cover phenomenal ground in questing, etc. I can see Gamora. Total nuke. Incredible all over the contest. Also a rank 3 Terrax would be such a massive pain on D awakened. And incredible on offense. About Titania and Juggs. I get that. And by time rank 4 and 5, will be more common. But you talked about rank 6 eventually. So I’d say go for it if have. I actually have both Dust. And just pulled Onslaught. I’d say mostly HAVE fun. If you aren’t valiant yet and get your least wanted class, go for the most fun one. Was lucky on those crystals. Have an sig 40 shocker. I kind of want tech to take him up. My current hulk and America rank 3 don’t always get banned. Another use of a high rank 6 star defender like Serpent is they can eat up bans and get to use the rank 3.

[@amanponnaluru46]

Really wanted to see this before 8.4 comes out

[@synxjames6026]

My first R3 was Shang chi unduped. Man is crazy and gets almost every bg fight in 30 seconds if they don't ban him with a sp2

[@jasonspalding2929]

I love how insightful and honest he is, it helps me make a better decision when I have more intricate information from a very knowledgeable player. I appreciated this video a lot Lags and you changed my mind on a couple of of my picks. I still might pick Kushala 😂, but I still agree she doesn't need it as much as others. We'll see if the head or the heart wins on this one.

[@Lagacy]

Much love

[@f0x50]

Pulled a tech 2-3 gem and 6* hulkbuster relic from 8.4. My duped guardian at r3 with that relic is going to be insane

[@LarryDiamond-te3yt]

I have two rank 3 mats now, pending tier 6 class. Thinking onslaught. But also one Lags didn’t mention. Shang Chi. Love the character. Love the gameplay. Love the animations, spacing. Love the control and customization. For sure a character has to objectively be able to be effective. Then? It’s who we enjoy the most and how we approach MCOC. If BG is important, etc, then things change….. Until I pull the trigger, might change my mind 😂

[@shanetwo1521]

… for Necro got skill r3 gem. Korg sig 60 to r3…. Today finished 8.4 skill gem again… now Bullseye to r3…. At least the last two titan crystals were back to back bullseyes so it makes it a little less painful…. I don’t climb high in BGs but maybe I should try.

[@jermainemouzon4909]

Killmonger will be my first skill R3..He always gets me the W in BGs. He either outright beat opponents, or drag the fight out long enough for me to get the time bonus. I laugh when people choose mutants thinking they have the advantage. KM imo is a two way champ as he can be effective on offense as well especially unstoppable.
