Get 9 green for Patch (go in with 6 if you really need to be in and out quickly, put Hulk out front, let him get angry and watch all the fun. After all the cascades and anger countdowns go off the enemy team will be significantly damaged. And chances are you'll have enough green for Thor at that point. Nothing special power-wise on defense but nice high total hp, except Wolvie only tanks purple, but at least his healing would be annoying. It's just for those special situations so I don't care about the health pack usage.

Back when Wolverine wasn't nerfed you can generally just kill him in one turn by pumping 6 Feral Claws, and if that doesn't do the trick, you can always have Thor throw in some red/yellow for cascades. In fact the only way you've a hard time against Hulk is if you kill the other side too fast such that you have a few strike tiles up (enough to trigger Anger) but not enough AP to finish him off, but that's obviously a first-world problem. After the Wolverine/Thor nerf, there's probably enough time for people to get Spiderman/Punisher, and both are quite good against Hulk. Patch can also go through his health in one turn without even any particularly cheesy tricks.

I wouldn't call that killing the other side too fast a first world problem as much as it is forcing the opponent to play more cautiously/slower to get around the Hulk's anger. I'd call forcing your opponent to hold their strike tile ability due to the existence of the Hulk a pretty big win as that slows down the game and makes it take even longer to kill the opposing team. Hm... I think I just convinced myself to try the Hood + Hulk as a defensive combo: that team might be really good against strike tile users as they are pressured to kill quickly due to the hood so they'll place down strike tiles earlier, but then risk getting hulk angered by doing so.

I find that I have use for him quite a bit, and when he's on my team I typically see a lot less attacks on defense. Should he be feared? No. But he should be respected.
