This one is hilarious. Bishop is total non-entity here:

Immortal Hulk's PVP with Kitty and Beta Ray Bill is hilarious if you can get to 6 red or 6 blue right away; all incoming damage is down to 1 in two turns if you can keep the protects out and once you get Kitty's red out, the opposing IHulk mindlessly AOEs you into flooding the board with attack tiles that Kitty can then buff into oblivion. Alternately, get BRB's blue out and every AOE gives Kitty four more protects to buff.

I’m just a few shards away from champing BRB. Kitty still 3-5-1 so :(

Also I champed Northstar today so :(:(

Honestly you don’t need them champed. My BRB is 5-4-1 and I’ve been getting defensive wins

Yeah I’ve done some matches with zombie hulk brb kitty now and it’s a bit slow but seems unstoppable

Oh mama I just champed BRB

grats

It’s not as game changing as Okoye or even Kitty (I guess •sniff•) but I coasted to 1000 with him in pvp today so

Super Skrull coming on hot as Okoye's new best 4* friend imo

looks great!

I am guessing the passive AP gen from half-health Thor will give you lots of opportunities to fire that blue and purple, both of which will be aggravating for Kitty and BRB. The stunner bros (Worthy, Bishop) will still be a problem, though.

Which of these 4*s should I pump iso into and champ?

Gwenpool
Miles Morales
Nico Minoru
Spider-Woman
X-23
Spider-Man (Infinity War)
Ghost Rider
Nebula

Workin on shards for America Chavez currently; need shards for Riri Williams, Coulson, Iceman, Winter Soldier, Mordo (1 cover away).

Nico is pretty good if you don't have a decent Kitty. The only other one I ever use is Ghost Rider for his black.

Infinity War Spidey is probably the best of those

I champed Wolfsbane tonight lol

I'd rank them something like:

Spider-Man (Infinity War)
Nico Minoru
Miles Morales
Spider-Woman
Nebula
Gwenpool
Ghost Rider
X-23

New favorite team: 5* Hawkeye, Worthy, 4* Gamora

Each match takes forever BUT it’s stun lock city

I don’t have a usable 5 Hawkeye (1-1-1 or something)

Now that I hit 1000 in every PVP I have enough cp to get 5s better. BRB at 457 already! I champed him like a week ago. Have Sinister at 11 covers already too though I don’t know if he’s any good

My Hawkeye is under leveled so he sometimes dies quickly but when it works, it’s amazing. Worthy soaks up all the damage and Hawkeye generates blue and red off of Worthy’s countdowns, which lets Gamora stun lock using the blue and Hawkeye top up AP with his red. Let an enemy hit Worthy again if you run low on blue and red and jumpstart the whole process again.

btw Super Skrull is awesome; I used the 1/1/1 PvP loaner Okoye to 2-shot champed Kittys by loading up on TU, then cycling his purple/blue (Thing)/green she's still standing, dumping 90K of damage on her before she can overwrite his purple countdown

seems good! I have 3 covers already, balled hard in the last pve for it.

I really appreciated Mr Fantastic (buffed) with BRB & 5Carnage. Carnage makes little attack tiles for the enemy, which do like 1 damage to your team (w/ BRBs protect tiles) but trigger his blue, generating more protect tiles. And matching those little attack times triggers Mr F's yellow, which means you get a free bomb every four such matches. I hit over 1200 in the Fantastic Four PVP with that trio.

I didn’t fully appreciate the changes to Mr Fantastic until that PvP

right? & Mr F's blue is a bomb too when you have a bunch of tiles on the board, which BRB+5Carnage gets you (even 4 Carnage gets you those)---a bomb with a stun! he's still buffed in the Hunt & I'm tempted to keep using him even though my champed Surfer is buffed & thus useful for once.

yeah 5-Carnage + Reed is a great combo. 5-Carnage also great with Medusa

Btw, when did they turn on bonus shards from packs? A month ago? Nice to know they're guaranteed every 35 pulls or whatever it is

maybe a week ago? who can really say anymore?

they are good! I've gotten them a couple of times, maybe three, but only 3*.

gonna champ Talos today lol, then I don't have any more 4* fully covered but unchamped. still working on Hawkeye Ronin, Thanos, Spider Ham, Maria Hill, and Super Skronk or whatever, rest of the 4* are champed.

I am one cover away from champing Hammond Torch. After him, I still need to champ Karnak, Northstar, Karolina, Maria Hill, and Super Skrull (Spider-Ham doesn't count IMO because he's a limited character). Of those, Karolina has the most covers (4/4/3) but Karnak/Super Skrull are the most useful.

Still not used to the major shift of iso-8 being the player limit factor vs. HP, even though it's been a few years now. Very few of my 4*s are at iso max for their level

yeah I had like 4mil iso until I got my Okoye champed a few months ago; she's a real game changer! I was able to hit 900 in PVP with her consistently, and got into a top alliance, so now the covers flow. I'm not using Okoye much now that I have BRB at 460, he & Carnage are such beasts in PVP, in particular on defense so I don't get many defensive losses once I get past 600 or so (though I did today in the pvp I guess because the super skull guy can steal tiles, not sure, maybe I played at the wrong time, I usually make my runs in the European morning when usa players are mostly asleep and asian players should be working)

I cannot stress enough how great Super Skrull is

If it’s an anti kitty character then I’ll be pleased

I reread the description of his purple and that steals enemy strikes/attacks/protects upon expiration

Thanks to her PvP, I'm wondering if Thorkoye/Invisible Woman is a hard counter to Kitty/BRB; I'm using her blue to get rid of the annoying boosted protects without giving them any blue, her yellow to hide from damage, and her green fueled by Thor and buoyed by Okoye to 2-shot Kitty

Nice!

Does locking her countdown with blue work? She doesn't make another one?

You can’t lock repeaters so her countdown keeps going but it gets tangled up in the protects and strikes from IW’s yellow and blue. My IW is 4/4/5 so she drops 2 protects on yellow and 3 strikes on blue, which means if you fire them both in the same turn and the AI doesn’t match any of them away, you have 6 turns to kill her or fire yellow or blue again to extend the timer, by which point you can absolutely murder her with IW’s green.

btw I was totally wrong; you CAN lock repeaters and, because it's still on the board, she doesn't make another one

I'm gonna start eating BRB/Kitty teams in PvP with her

In other news, I decided to chase Karnak so of course MPQ gives me an event where I end up covering... Northstar

this fucking game, man

Is Northstar as shitty as he looks? (like Karolina)

At least Karolina has synergy with Nico. Northstar half-assed generates AP, half-assed burst heals your team, and half-assed deals damage. It's the perfect realization of the character from the comic books in a lot of ways; playing him feels very self-important but ultimately disappointing.

The random invisibility proc from his countdown is nice, though.

He sucks. The crash with him today...well, I won first try because I have him champed, and the Thanos enemy is underleveled. But it was kinda close! Awful character.

I liked how his yellow countdown consistently appeared in an easily-matchable spot every time I fired it.

Just champed 5* Iceman

He's great with Thorokoye for the cl10 challenge nodes. It's easy to beat on defense, but it's a strong offensive team, one of the best. The trick is to prefer Iceman's cheap green over Thor's, because boosted by Okoye, it's doing huge recurring damage, and huge team damage when you match them. Once several of the repeaters get lined up, say at the bottom, you can blast them with Okoye's red for incredible damage.

really Thor is just there to generate green quickly

Ha yeah, I was already doing that when I had Bobby at 4/4/4; it's a fantastic team

Basically, save enough green to cast Bobby's repeaters twice; cast on successive turns; continue collecting teamups while passive damage melts the opposition and cascades stunlock them

Yes that’s the juice

5000 HP for 3 WorthCap covers + 3 Iron Spider covers + some other trifles. Worth it? I have a ton of HP stocked up.

I have Iron Spider champed, and like 2 covers on Cap.
