Agreed, and if every character was OP no one would ever have any real need to spend money on the game. I guess instead of saying I don't care about this issue I should really say I have no idea how to fix the problem that is perceived by others. And good job on the Hulk event!

I know we have talked about it ad nauseam but I wonder how people would actually react if in the next update it was just done. Despite having a max rag I wouldn't mind at all but I wonder what the backlash would actually be.

For example Thor is clearly above the rest of the 2 stars not counting Wolverine, but he's not an impossible matchup. Basically Thor punishes you if you try to overpower him, because he has very high HPs and if you get sloppy the AI will make enough matches to get off his big moves. He's not an opponent you like to see but he can be worked around. Against a character like Ragnarok, about all you can do is either keep him stunned permanently or just hope he never grabs any red. Of course there will be some characters that form the backbone of any 'A-team' but the 'A-team' shouldn't be overwhelmingly powerful that you never see anyone else.

There are many other 3*s that are as dangerous as Rags, but the AI is such **** that it doesn't use them well. If it used Mags blue or Widow's purple with even half the ability as a human then people would complain about them. If it used Widow's green ever or Mags purple more consistently then there'd be howls for blood.
