My question is if it is worth it to place t10-25 on pvp regularly? Other question will my scalling on pve go over the top by having 2maxed chars?

Only one red match is possible and it's the one that just dropped (the one red that wasn't affected by thirst). I'm flattered that you played blade against that node just to try and make your horrible argument against mine though. I wonder how many times you got completely dismantled before you found an ideal board and kept green away from juggs so he wouldn't undo a your work with 6 green.

Nightstalker is one and done and needs more turns for benefits to realize, while Surgical can potentially end the game in the same turn.

Plus PvP is about speed and if you don't run X-Force for early matches a 5/3/5 Blade is probably faster because you don't care about purple.

Pumping out free strike tiles is amazing, and at level 5 it doesn't take long before the board is swamped with strike tiles. Keep your enemies close is quite good to, it's not that difficult to get attack tiles doing 1000 damage each turn. Blade wears people out quickly if they are not careful.

I can take down max level goons and rarely take any damage with that combo. Free strike tiles that are boosted by Falcon, countdown tile control from Cap and Falcon and DoT from Blade's purple make them unstopable. I just make sure to take an Ares or Hulk team-up to use all the green ap that doesn't get used and its the perfect goon killing team.

He uses blue which stops falcon blue from working, and he matches red which stops blade's green from working. Ideally you have someone who uses yellow and green there. LThor comes to mind
