Homemade World Rupture Without the Side Effects ;)

Unknown

So the Mad Titan has been brewing up some stuff. Check this out.

I paired up a high level Hulk with patch wolverine and it made for a wonderful combo. Here are the ingredients to a homemade World Rupture without Sentry and without the nasty side effects.

I. Hulk with at least 10k HP - Fully Covered - 5 Green(Thunderous Clap), 3 Red(Hulk Smash), 5 Black (Anger)
II. Patch Wolverine, at least level 120. 5(Green), 3 Red, 5 Yellow for max healing.

So, as you know when Wolverine does his green attack and lays down strike tiles, which work for both you and the enemy. Position the Hulk in the front of your roster for this work. Do wolverines green attack, and right after that match a black or green to make sure the Hulk is in front. When the enemy hits you, your anger is going to explode. Especially if they hit you 2 or 3 times because with the strike tiles, each hit will take more than 5% of his life.

As you know, anger damages the enemy, plus the damage of the automatic green matches will be amplified in damage because of wolverine's strike tiles. I've tried this probably 7-8 times and I love it. Let me know if this works for you.

OAN, for the 3rd character, I didn't mention them because I usually only play PVP. But, you would want someone like Daken who can heal themselves as well. Plus he generates green

Yeah, this worked before Sentry and works still.

Problem is: Hulk requires a Health Pack after _every_ match instead of Sentry requiring one after two matches, so it's even less sustainable than Sentry bombing.

@Bowgentle, I agree! I would say that in PVP, this would serve as a great defensive strategy if anything. So that if you're not shielded, you can have more victories. This is explosive while playing though. Because the thing is, if Wolverine pulls off his move even once, everytime the Hulk gets hit, he's generate a boat load of green and his anger is giving off amplified damage because of the Strike Tiles.

Here's my alternative miniature WR recipe with real no side effects of WR, unlike OP's:

2* Magneto (MNM) with 5 purple.
2* Hawkeye with 5 purple.
Your favourite strike tile generator. LDaken recommended for speed of strike tile generation.

3 purple match 3s.

Match a green or two to get some strike tiles out.

Use MNM purple to create 2 or more crit tiles.

Wait two turns for up to 6 x 1k+ damage per speedshot.

Wow, this is good too! Speedshot is lethal!

This happened to me once fighting against Hulk and Patch - Patch hit me with the Rage and I wasn't paying attention (eating dinner and watching Breaking Bad at the same time) and so I hit Hulk - the game ended pretty soon after once the entire screen had gone green.

It is quite a good defensive team against those eating dinner / obsessed with Breaking Bad

This is true and you should also, in theory, be able to "double-dip" by using 2 storm with her raging tempest. If you have a slightly lower level Hulk, once they hit you with all of the berserker rage tile you had given them it should trigger Storm's Tempest.

I have a 166 patch and only 4 of Hulk's black covers, so I have not been able to test the theory. If you are able you could also see if Patch's strike tiles will amplify raging tempest for the AOE damage and would be devastating if it would work....just a thought.

Also, for a 3rd, I use Hood. His black at 5 sets off Hawkeye's Speedshot faster. Less turns for the enemy to destroy the CD tiles.

This is great!

Might I include a berserker rage right before the speedshot explosion instead of Daken?

Hehe, this makes the combo even more like Sac Rupture: strikes + many CDs + 5-black Intimidate for all-CD acceleration. Nice!

If you use Intimidate, you could swap UDaken out for Patch and hit BRage without taking BRage-enhanced damage.

I was using this one with Cstorm in BOP PVP - why not take advantage of all that blue and fire off wind-storm too. My best was a 5 turn win in BoP with that combo, that's a lot of health gone very quickly.

Also the Hulk/Patch combo I'd thought was reasonably well known! It's even better if it's the opponents Patch, let them fire off berserker, then get angry and the green clears their strike tiles not yours leaving some shiny purple strike tiles for your own use. I used this almost exclusively in the Thor LRs in the anniversary week, it's a super quick win when all works well, and I've found you can stretch your Hulk health to 2-3 matches.

The hood combo makes it lethal with his intimidation! It precludes the possibility of matching all 3 speedshots before they reach their 0 count

LOL! Well I guess this was just new to me

Added bonus of Speedshot filling up the purple tiles to prevent enemy strike tiles.

I discovered this quite by accident in the Thor LRs last week. Any time I've seen Patch in my opponents team, I've fielded the Hulk against him ever since. You have to carefully track their green, and make sure that the Hulk is in front when he lets go with his Berserker Rage, but oh my goodness is it worth it...

This is nothing new, i have been using this combo forever and a year.
I use them a lot and can see a lot more con than pro.

Pros:
Fast win, pretty much reliable win with full health Hulk

You can make a few match with the loaner character in pvp to tank some of the damage.

Cons:
Patch Hulk doesn't work when there is a hulk on the other team. You will need some one to constantly stun the other team hulk or you will end up giving him as much anger countdown everytime your own anger go off.

You will need to use a lot of health pack on Hulk. After extensive playing, i find that you expend the same amount of HP using hulk patch as sentry hood, you will use less HP if you use the sentry daken falcon combo where available.

This team is kinda weak on defense. Not as good as you will think. The AI might often use Thunderous Clap over Zerker Strike rendering the combo useless. Hulk + patch on defense is only as effective as a hulk by himself.

Doesnt work in situation where patch is buff or the other character is buff and they tank most matches over Hulk.

Also some time the enemy get off a miracle cascade which instantly kill of the hulk with the help of your beserker rage.


Yeah, this is a good combo, it is fun to play but it is very situational. I generally only use it when the enemy max health for each character is below 8000.
