Anyone found a reason to add champ levels to Ihulk ? 

We know most people have kept their Ihulk under leveled to pair with Okoye. But I was curious if anyone has found a reason to add champ levels to him. Aside from you players who may have an Okoye at level 550 or up there, where you can safely add some champ levels to Ihulk of course. I have Ihulk at 13 covers and level 448, I stopped leveling him so I could get the most out of him with my level 452 Okoye. However when he was in the LL store back then, I had crazy RNG and ended up with 7 saved covers.

Usually that would be great news with other 5*s to add valuable champ levels, but it's obviously different with Ihulk and his team/self damage. I was curious if anyone found any new ways to utilize Ihulk these days. Quite a few characters have been released since Ihulk came out, but I haven't really seemed to find any use for adding extra levels to him or any new teams to use him with.

    The PvE specialists still use him, I think, but they all have Okoye maxed out.  I haven't seen him in PvP in a long time.

    IHulk and someone who can stay perpetually airborne (Vulture, Ikaris?) is a way to win otherwise unwinnable PVE fights, especially in pick-2-situations. Here, a bigger IHulk would be better, I guess.

    iHulk is still meta for PvE, but only with Okoye, and you want her tanking as much as possible. I forget how many levels (20 maybe?) it takes to make sure she tanks the majority of colors, but it's more than 4, so I'd suggest not beefing up your iHulk until you get more levels on your Okoye if you want to compete for high PvE placement. If not, level away!

    The only real benefit for more levels on ihulk is more health to delay his splash damage to teammates.  Since your Okoye is also pretty low level its not really worth adding the extra health.  Youll always have the shards and covers in the bank, so I would personally delay

    I've been sitting on a lot of shards for my lvl 453 iHulk for a long time. It's very annoying. I'm guessing it's somewhat analogous to how post-ISO peeps feel. Though god knows I wouldn't know how that feels...

    This would be the best reason to add champion levels to any 5*.  Since Hulk isn't really usable for much of anything anymore, you may as well cash out the rewards and potentially apply them to someone more useful.
