    Getting closer to what I think will be a dream team of Pun, Cap and Falcon

    Why Pun, Cap and Falcon? They don't seem to synergize all that well. Punisher's green takes 3 matches before it gets going and if one of his strike tiles gets taken out it makes Falcon's yellow less useful. Picking up yellow only fuels Sentinel of Liberty which is about as lackluster a power as can be. Daken + Falcon + Green/Yellow user is great for color coverage, but cMags works great too because OP.

    I might finally get a purple Falcon. He is lower on my list to dump iso into. I still want to set up a defensive team of Falcon, Spiderman, and bullseye. just match purple and yellow and have the game take forever to finish!! icon_twisted.gif

    #1 Rainbow, all colors are hit
    #2 Caps & Falcon's Yellow, gives me a reason to go after that color.
    #3 Puns Strike tiles. Sure it is at least 3 matches, but then I don't have a useable 3* Daken in my pocket.

    Meto5000: Don't forget that Punisher has the potential of attack tiles from Molotov too, and the rarer Protects from Cap, so there are multiple things to improve with Falcon if a strike tile goes away until the next Judgment. Not as good as boosting strike tiles when the game picks one of the others OVER a strike tile of course.

    Falcon is very entertaining to play with, and is a joy to have in PvE (dethrones CMags for a lot of nodes now). I've had decent luck running him (5/5/3) with Black Panther (5/3/5) and whatever green/red spender is available or buffed. Sadly both are on my B-team and waiting on more iso (L125 each) to really shine.

    I'd love to join a top 100 alliance just for the yellow cover as that is all I need to finish Falcon off. That's a bit selfish of me...but yea...

    ^ Just become a hired gun for PVP events, then you can sort of pick and choose when you want to be in an alliance, and when you don't want to be... not to mention, you can also gain extra covers without too much extra work if you don't want to put the time in...

    Feels much quieter than Army of One, that or I've just lucked into a calm bracket (famous last words). Was only attacked once (and miraculously won) by the time I got to 400. Top spot sitting pretty on 788, but 444 enough for top 10 at the moment

    Okay, so back to "In Your Crotch! The DareDevil Experience!" (Poster available in the lobby)...

    Who do y'all run in this tourney? I've got a 5/1/5 Devil. At (pre-buff) level 110, a red trap can kick out 6500 points of teef and a pink can loosen 6AP of family jewels.

    Should I think about good DD counters (like Hulk, HT, or LazyDake), or guys who can work with/around him? At this point, I've just rotated my healthiest 3*s, but I can't put my finger on a dream team.

    Any flavour of Storm also counter DD well.

    Currently running my level 40 fully covered DD, Patch/Daken. Eventually will move to maybe Sentry/Hood on defense or LThor/Daken. Only need the yellow Falcon cover, and we'll certainly get that from the alliance. But I'll push for T5 anyway.

    I've been flipping between Punisher/Hood and Patch/Panther - and letting Bagdevil kick his way to glory. They both work okay but not amazing.

    Back in the days before Daken (Classic), I liked to run a max Patch/Hood/Daredevil in Shield Training. Not as good these days. I've added a few 166s since last time, so not sure who I will play (waiting until this afternoon to start).

    I would add that Hulk is less of a deterrent than one might think, because Anger can trigger Ambush from both color change or cascades.

    Anger suicides are the best! Better yet, launch Thunder Strike after Ambush on Hulk and let him Anger. Dead Hulk.

    I used Patch/Lazy Daken for the run up to 300, but I've been using a combination of Lazy Thor, Black Panther, and Magneto (in various combos) since and probably ongoing. My ambushes are doing almost 12k damage, so they can one-shot pretty much anyone, and I've gotten them to go off a few times. Hoping the crotch kick of instant death makes defense a bit easier (I'm 1-1 so far).

    The opening match of this one I managed to crotch kill all three enemies. This is going to be silly and possibly even fun.

    Funny thing just happened, I'm quite sure I just got wrecked by a 4/4/5 GSBW this event paired with a 5/5/3 IM40. Downed the Daredevil to prevent one hit kills. Then GSBW shot my Daredevil. It went all downhill from there since that cleared the board, caused cascades, created a good position for recharge, and dear god her red has serious cascade potential. Nothing I could do at that point but watch my LThor get ate up.

    I'm mainly running LThor/Hood for full rainbow coverage, using Thor's red to help remove enemy Daredevil or bigger threat

    Torch/black panther can also be fun if you rely on fireball instead of ambush but on defense the AI might use inferno instead of rage of the panther :-/

    Magneto/Hood for setting up a guaranteed crotch kick when dealing with enemy Hulk (higher potential for retaliation though)

    DD - 512
    ***cap - 353
    ***IM - 533

    Can't say I'd recommend it, but it's been working ok for me offensively. IM's yellow gives me options with either Cap or DD. Defensively I've only managed a couple wins out of probably ten or so attacks so it seems to not be a very good deterrent so far.

    Running BP + Patch, and they're my only maxed 3*s. Unfortunately Patch only tanks Green with this combo, so I go through my 5 allotted health packs very quickly.

    But it's always nice knowing that getting 9 green + 12 Black is an almost guaranteed win.
