How do you guys use 4Cyke?

Got three 4Cyke covers from EotS, making him stand at 3/5/3 now. Is he usable at this point? If yes, how best to use him? What playstyle is best for 4Cyke, and who should be his wingmen?

Should I level him up? I have lots of championed 3*, but the highest ones are only at level 180. If I do level up my 4Cyke, at what level would he function best without messing with my scaling?

Thanks in advance.

    Sorry to say, but that's almost the worst possible build.

    He needs 5 red, the increase in damage is massive.
    Also 5 blue is almost a must (although not as crucial as red) - it goes from 3x3 to 5x5 and doubles in damage.

    So I'd keep praying for RNG to bless me with more red before leveling Cyke.

    Yes, I know. I prayed for more reds, but that's what I got now. So, he's still unusable at this point?

    I'm in a similar situation, I decided to level him up to 146 so that he would float below all my champed 3*'s to test out any difficulty scaling.
    I have Cyke at 4/3/3, so the 4th red is a pretty big difference in damage dealing than with 3 covers.

    Bumping him up does not seem to have adverse effects to my scaling at all. At this level he plays nearly as well as 3* champs now, and fills in nicely when other red/yellow/blue users are low on health. Plus he's dang fun and tactical.
    Btw, I have no 4* champs yet, and several 5*'s have just 1 or 2 covers each.
    Let us know what you decide, good luck.
