POLL: Which Opponents are the most annoying? (Group 2)

Nonce Equitaur 2

This is Part 2 of a poll. In Part 1, you can vote on Ares, Black Panther, Black Widow (GS, Orig, Mod, or Yelena), Bullseye, Daken (Classic or DA) , Hood, Hulk, Juggernaut, Magneto (Classic or Marvel Now), Moonstone, Human Torch (Classic or Johnny Storm), Sentry, Storm (Classic, Modern, or Mohawk), Thor (Modern or Marvel Now), and Wolverine (X-Force, Patch, or Astonishing).

I suspect that the characters in this poll are classifiable as "not all that annoying", but polls never go quite as I expect.

EDIT: I should have put Falcon into Group 1, but I'm not sure who he would replace.

I would have voted for Falcon twice or even 3 times. He is one heck of a pain with all those defense tiles.

Nonce Equitaur 2

Wowsers, I misclassified all sorts of characters when I tried to guess which ones would be more annoying and less annoying.

After this runs a day, I'll need to move the fifteen "winners" into a new poll.

I'd put a bare minimum of 8 people from the other poll above everybody in this one. I had to struggle to whittle down the other list and to come up with the 2 I voted for in this one.

I didn't think of that. We'll definitely need a new poll. On another note, I decided to look for all 3-4* teams that had 3 passive powers and 6 active powers on all 6 colors. Here's all of them.

Daken teams: Deadpool/Storm, BWGS/Hood
Falcon teams: BP/Hulk, BP/Patch, She-Hulk/Hood, IW/Marvel, Torch/Spidey, Punisher/Spidey

I haven't seen a Deadpool/Storm/Daken team, yet. Nor a Falcon/BP/Hulk team.

i really dislike captain marvel, the animation which gives 3 ap takes up alot of time.

From this list Deadpool, Rags, and Spiderman.

Deadpool doing possibly 3k+ for 6 red is really going to piss me off. I might throw my phone in his PVP.

Spiderman- I hate protect tiles. Only thing worse than facing his protect tiles is if he was paired with Bullseye and Falcon making for the longest match ever!!

Rags- really I should like Rags more, but the AI plays him way better than I do so when he gets rolling getting cascade after cascade it feels like the game is taking forever. His powers don't do that much damage but when he gets rolling the animation does not stop. When he is buffed in PVP with high health he becomes really annoying.

You haven't faced Mags, Falcon, Captain America yet.


For complete tile blindness, go up against a Daken/Falcon/Storm team.

It seems like one of the trademarks of annoying characters is that they have cheap and/or passive powers (I suspect Deadpool will move way up the list once we have all had the fun of taking 3K damage after just 2 red matches. That will make Ares' Onslaught look like a picnic). Low point powers for the AI increase the amount that luck plays into the match, whereas higher point AI powers give the player time to strategize around them, and hence give the advantage to the more skilled player.

From this Group, Loki purely because the Illusions animation takes so long and it's a cheap power so he usually gets it off at least once (and quite often twice since he's not a high priority kill and it's not a high priority ability to deny, you know?). High level Venom in PvE nodes where he is fed purple by goons and keeps stunning you. Ditto Spidey with added annoyance for stretching out matches by getting his yellow off. That's about it.

Double max level sentry Team ups. Worst. Opponent. Ever. AKA everyone I play now out of the blue for the one shot upset victory. #DREAMCRUSH

I really hate Ragnarok's endless cascades. It's cheap, sometimes allows him to cast another right on the next turn and sometimes the damage can be surprising, not to mention he can feed someone else in his team. And worse, he has a lot of health and take forever to take down.

Venom is also annoying when he is buffed, since he can team-stun for only 4 Purple and the Devour hits for a truck and somehow he almost always pull it off at least once because he is usually the last guy you kill.

Venom can only stun team for 7 AP (level 5 Snare). 4 AP is the level 4 Snare (single target stun).
