Roster dumping help

Unknown

Hey all

I'm transitioning to 3* at the moment and have a full roster of 27. I just nabbed She-Hulk and need to make room until I can get some more HP.

I'm leaning towards getting rid of 2* Cap - I've only used him a handful of times and never plan on dumping ISO into him, but he is still featured in some PVE tournaments. I'd like to hang on to Modern Mags as well, but as I'm making the transition I don't know how useful he'd be. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

I'm kind of dealing with the same issue, myself! I'm thinking about dumping either MNMags (because I only ever used him with oBW for healing) or Spidey (because he's useless now) for She-Hulk. Definitely will be following this thread for advice.

Either MCap or MNMags are probably your best bet, but in our new era of "roster diversity" I'd be trying to hold onto both if at all possible. Two days ago I'd say you could possibly let go of AWolvie too (Ares/Thor have those colours covered better) but again, his regen may be helpful more now.

Basically, go farm Story mode for any HP you might have missed and try to place well in the next couple of PVPs.

Alternatively you could ditch IW - she's little more than a trophy anyway.

I would either dump MCap or Ragnarok. I think Cap could still be useful in PVE, especially in goon missions, but it depends on the level of your Captain. If he's low level, it may not be worth putting the ISO into him. If that's the case then I'd get rid of him.

I'm not sure how popular this advice will be, but the reason why I say to dump Ragnorak is because he is one of the weakest character there is and many times he can get in the way of your team on defense since the AI tends to use the lowest cost moves, although they do seem to be changing that occasionally. I found him to be a pain even in the PVP where he was featured. Plus, he's only decent with two colors, which makes him even less desirable. The only reason I wouldn't sell him is if he becomes an essential character for a node, which could happen again, but I think that's doubtful.

I think MNMags could be useful for a quick win with CStorm, which is why I think you should keep him.

Keep MNMags. Especially since you have him fully covered. I only have mine at like level 35, but he's fully covered. Any PVE where CStorm is buffed and he's an allowed character, wins are pretty much on easy mode.

Drop 2* cap, especially if you haven't dumped any ISO in him already. You can open a new spot once you have the HP and get him well covered over a few LR's fairly quickly. Might take a week or two get him built the way you like, but LR's rain 2* captain, moonstone and hawkeyes.

U need to provide levels of these Characters. Capt A and MNMags are easily aquired through tokens and PVP wins; but deciding to dump depends on who you have least ISO invested in.

I suggest not dumping anyone. With Heroics and such you need to have some 1 and 2 stars in order to compete decently. I say dump your HP into roster slots. There are 3-4 characters you can dump without regret

Yelena
C.Hawkeye
Bullseye
Bag-Man --(althougth if you build him 4/2/5 and he's buffed he's really good in heroic goon fights)

The rest all have been used and used heavily in mulipte formats

Agreed. Also, all due respect to HairyDave (that's not a phrase you hear often) I would definitely keep MnMags. I think he's a chronically underrated 2*. He's got a valid nuke with red that ALSO generates AP and I've taken down many a maxed Hulk with him and Cstorm. As j12601 mentioned, you even already have him covered well.

And even MORE due respect to my alliance-mate hex (woot woot), 2* cap has his uses, particularly in PvE where he is frequently buffed.

Given the new true healing ****, I'd say just bite the bullet and open up some slots, but if you MUST drop a character, I'd go with Spidey. I know he's a 3* and can mitigate damage, but you don't have a lot of covers, and as you progress you'll find it more and more unlikely that you'll want him taking up a precious spot in your team for that one power. Better to work on Falcon if you want a defensive specialist. Just my 2 cents.

I decided to get rid of 2* Cap. Despite his occasional usefulness in pve, and even with full covers, the fact remains that I rarely if ever play him and the covers flow in often enough where I could always rebuild him if the day ever came. I never invested ISO in either him or MMags, but like a few of you said the synergy with CStorm is still useful for some quick wins here and there.

Thinking long, long term... I want to hold on to as many 3* covers as possible. D3P like tweaking the game's mechanics often, so the chance of winning out with a retained 3* that I chose to keep on down the line is favourable - especially when it's at the expense of letting go of a 2* that is easily obtainable and won't get respecced.

Thanks for everyone's input. Greatly appreciated.

I wouldn't dump anyone either unless 1*. Previous PvE showed diversity is key.
