mine has new text.


"If a team member is damaged for 20% of their max health, it deals 234 damage to all enemies. If every team member is below 50% health, damage increases to 1558."

Oh wow, and it no longer generates red, either? Frankly I think it is for the best, but wow, that's a big change. Going to be a lot of unhappy people.

too early to say sky is falling, let's see over the week what happens.

Or they could just buff other cards. c.Storm nerf will surely make everyone jump to Moonstone now.

I've been playing a long time, and although I have 3-stars, the only 2-stars I have complete are Thor, Daken, Cap, c.Storm. Maybe RNG is just unkind to me (I probably sold 20+ Caps by now), but it's not exactly easy to acquire usable heroes.

yeah no more red generation. shes way more annoying to fight against, but her offensive oomph is pretty much gone (1k+ on all if used right)

Why more annoying?

at least in this iron mk 40 tourney, basic 4 match sets it off so u have all these small damage tempest going out that are unavoidable to the whole team.

fight multiple storms, just unavoidable damage that needs to be healed up sometime.

Unknown

Btw, I predict the new newbie team to be Thor+c.Storm.

speaking of moonstone, her gravity warp has been changed as well.

A lot of people are running with max leveled Storms, so that puts her at 2600 hps. That means you need to hit for 420+ to trigger her tempest, right?

You could still whittle her down with match 3's while you build up AP and then take her out with a big blast without ever taking damage.


So, ironically, a level 50 C.Storm is (potentially) scarier than a level 85 one.

correct, but u'll have to avoid match 4's if you have a high level mk 40 in this tourney. and match 5's, and crit tiles. basically play very safe at the beginning and try denying the npc match 4's and 5's and ruining it. u can play really smart to avoid the damage for sure.

I still see no reason the newbie team wont be C. Storm + Thor. There will need to be an adjustment to strategy but the combo still has the potential to take >1k off any team it is facing unless you risk using match-3's to slowly whittle her down while Thor loads up.

520+, which just proves your point even more.

c.storm is more annoying on defense now but her offensive capabilities took a big hit.

in buffed lightning rounds...it might be hard not to do 20% damage to her in a single hit lol

Match 4's and 5's on her higher HP teammates perhaps? Lets not forget that cstorm herself also has that crucial stun ability to deal with an opposing cstorm. Still going to be a cstorm fest...

i wonder if other things have changed. moonstone's ability definetly changed also as someone pointed out.

But in buffed lightning rounds, the HP loss is also insignificant when you have 20k HP and AI basic matches do 200+ anyway.

A big part of the combo was the red AP she generated. They will still play together, but that synergy is gone.

Instead of attacking her first just attack the highest Hp opponent until you build up enough ap to one or two shot her. That's my new strategy that seems to deal with her pretty well. Even a great cascade won't do 20% damage to a max level Thor or a buffed Iron Man.

And I agree Thor and Wolvie is the way to go. I love that combo
