I actually found that node harder than the final node. I can't even remember how many times I wiped.

That was one of only two nodes where I had to resort to Deadpool points.

I'm trying to beat Sim 40 (Th4r, Loki, Rags, all 211+) to get that Mystique cover. My 3*s: 5/4/4 Hulk, 3/3/3 Pun, 5/2/1 Patch, 2/2/4 GSBW. Everything else is 2*, with Ares, OBW, Daken, Hawkeye, Magneto, Storm, Thor, Wolverine fully leveled. Any suggestions on how to beat this node?

I beat this with Cstorm/Mags/Hulk. Kill Loki first, then Thor. Focus windstorm on Thor. Rags is actually your friend a bit here, since you'd much rather the AI use his red power than Thor's red power, and his costs less ap, so it will be favored. Monitor enemy AP, if you know an attack is coming next turn, put Hulk in front. Rags godless green power sucks but in this fight it can sometimes help you as you need purple for mags, and Rags board shake can help speed your windstorm cycle up. Just make sure Hulk takes the damage. You don't want to let Thor get off her powers. Her yellow can kill mags from aoe damage. But sometimes you can get lucky and Storm's yellow will utterly wipe out the enemy team after Thor's yellow.

If the above doesn't work, OBW can also be a good team member. Her Espionage will steal black and purple so that Loki doesn't get off his annoying purple power. But I think your Hulk will be a life saver against Rags/Thor. You'll eat crow though if Thor blue power stuns Hulk! Be careful and use boosts!

Thanks camichan, it worked! I killed Loki fairly quickly but then lost my Magneto right after, thankfully I was able to spam blue matches and wind-stormed Th4r into submission!
