Mystique is the only purple generator that I know of, and she is unreliable. I don't see her purple as nearly as effective as stormneto. I think they are trying to create the higher risk/reward style of classic storm. Both can do some tile destruction for AP, but with random outcomes. I can't count how many times I have thrown out a hail mary on a CD with storm. Still SW looks way more playable than QS. His tile locking usually does nothing but prevent me from making useful matches.
I like the concept so far for the new style of play as well. It doesn't sound quite as grindy as a regular pve, but then again it may turn out to be the exact opposite.0 -
Super long stun is nice, as long as it's not random.
Hopefully her green is targetable. I like choosing tiles.0 -
Would really like clarification as to whether the green will ONLY destroy surrounding specials.0

Maybe they're saying that basic tiles are neutral, thus non-friendly?0 -

Good point.0 -
EVERYONE PLZ CROSS YOUR FINGERS SHE WONT BE NERFED LIKE HER FAMILY
Really liking her Blue.
who am I kidding...she generates purple. She'll get nerfed. Then Iron Fist'll get nerfed...sigh0 -
why does scarlet witch not have red as one of her colors?
edit: also, looking forward to hitting a group of charged tiles with a hex bolt. i thought this is why they nerfed twin pistols?0 -
Wow, possibly great. Translation - nerf fodder.0

Oh a very good purple producer. I wonder who I'll pair her with0

Wanda runs Purple/Green/Blue with each of her abilities taking on a different aspect of her chaos magic. Her Purple, Reality Crush, is her heavy hitter that deals damage and stuns opponents facing off against it. This attack deals heavy damage to the entire enemy team then stuns one enemy for a couple of turns. At max level her attack hits harder and stuns longer than MPQ fan favorite Storm (Classic)'s Wind Storm. And since it uses Purple AP to do it, it provides a damage outlet on a color that generally doesn’t have one.
The Queen of Chaos’ Green ability is Hex Bolt, which is a somewhat chaotic—of course—utility spell. Her Bolts are relatively cheap at 8 AP and destroy a single basic tile. At that point, it then destroys a number of surrounding tiles that will pop any Attack, Protect, or Strike tiles that it happens to hit. In the process, it will also give the AP from the destroyed tiles, so it can be used not only to get rid of enemy special tiles but also as a tactical AP generator. At max level, it even gains the ability for the surrounding tiles destroyed to include Countdown or other more unique special tiles, letting Scarlet Witch deal with just about anything the enemy can throw at the board.
Lastly, Wanda’s Blue ability is a boon to both her Reality Crush ability and anyone else that uses Purple AP for their own abilities. Arcane Incantation, a passive ability, creates a random Purple Countdown tile each turn if Wanda doesn’t already have one out. After a few turns, it explodes, creating Purple tiles in surrounding squares. The resulting tiles will create easy to make matches—if they don’t match themselves—causing cascades and more AP generation. The end result is a somewhat slow and chaotic escalation of Purple AP generation for the team, which can then result in the explosion of a Reality Crush down the line.
I guess it depends on how many purple it creates, but if that CD tile starts anywhere lower than 3, this seems like a potentially broken (nerfable) ability0 -

I would expect 3-turn countdown at Rank 3, and reduced to a 2-turn countdown for Rank 5. From the way the description is worded I would expect that it only creates 3 or 4 purple tiles.
I don't think it will be quite as useful for rushing Purple as some people think, but will certainly help generate a few extra AP every few turns.0 -
Her CD will be excellent fodder for Kingpin.0

Is there any information from the dev that SW is not going to be a 2*? Considering the comparison to C.Storm's Wind Storm for her Purple, I'm afraid she may be a new Glass Cannon of a 2*.0

I can see it being something like
Green tile is the selected tile, the green criticals are what I think would be a pattern to be the target tiles it will attempt to destroy; black tiles are the unaffected tiles. That I would call chaotic enough, tricky to use but not too hard to get used to.0 -

Click the link. The screenshots clearly show her being a 3*.0 -

You would call that perfect diamond shape chaotic?
I think it creates purple tiles randomly in a radius around the tile. That's chaotic.0 -

Sounds like she'll be nerfed. Only a matter of when. The only reason i can think of that they would make her abilities strong right now is because of the movie and the new Ultron event. Once the hype and the movie is over, she's fair game for the nerf bat. Those who want to spend real $$$ on her, think real carefully.
How long do you think it'll be before she gets nerfed? (Would be interesting to have a poll on this)0
