You can ask your alliance for characters to get Team-Up powers. Who's the best to ask for? The A-list characters are desirable, but those are painful to give out. But's it's relative painless to loan out the bottom of the roster. That suggests these guys are good loaner characters.

B-List and C-List characters that are easy to loan out.
23. 3* Loki -- 5 tutile.png boardshake.
29. 2* Black Widow -- 5+ tutile.png AP Stealing, 9 tutile.png increase Counters + Healing
48. 1* Juggernaut -- 6 tutile.png Boardshake
55. 1* Hawkeye -- 7 tutile.png Clear a row, 8 tutile.png PLACE a whitecrit.png
20. 3* Mystique -- 8 tutile.png Stun 2, AP Steal, 10 tutile.png -> +10 blacktile.pngpurpletile.png on board
51. 1* Black Widow -- 9 tutile.png Stun 5/1x3, 10+ tutile.png AP Stealing
32. 1* Storm -- 9 tutile.png for Hailstorm, 10 tutile.png for 14 AP
32. 3* Storm -- 9 tutile.png for Hailstorm, 10 tutile.png for 14 AP.
26. 3* Daredevil -- 9 tutile.png Stun 2 (recycle?), 7 tutile.png high-damage trap
28. 3* Doctor Doom -- 9 tutile.png, all bluetile.png -> blacktile.png
42. 2* Magneto -- 9 tutile.png, PLACE 5 bluetile.png, 14 tutile.png for 25 AP generation,
47. 2* Cap America -- 11 tutile.png for 10 redtile.png or bluetile.png, PLACE
38. 2* Storm -- 11 tutile.png Stun 4 and nuke, 12 tutile.png AP Generation
21. 3* Black Widow -- 11 tutile.png, PLACE 6 greentile.png

A-List characters are difficult to loan out, but they have great skills.
6. 3* Black Panther
7. 3* Captain America
9. 3* Magneto (classic)
10. 3* Blade
11. 3* Wolverine (Patch)
12. 3* Deadpool
16. 3* Human Torch
17. 3* Sentry
18. 3* Punisher
19. 3* Falcon

Which of these character should I remove entirely before I start-up the poll? I love Torch / Punisher team-ups myself from the A-List, and many from the B-List. For anyone with Loki's Mischief, he's likely one of their A-list characters now.

Sidenote -- I'm not sure how well Daredevil's team-up function. Do they recycle and respawn?

    For the no-need-to-level teamups, I like Storm Classics Lightning Storm.

    I believe it looks at your green for tile destruction, but does not drain it. So it makes a great AP generating sweep.

    FYI for Dare Devil it is 8 for red, and he can loan out radar sense as well 10 AP for 3-5 special tiles destroyed.

    I would also add 1* venom for stun. I don't remember the cost.
    Rags 6AP for board shake up or damage and green generation.
    2* MNMags
    3* spidy for 9 heal or 5 stun
  • This thread is a great idea. It's a pain in the **** to keep checking each one for the team up AP cost so this is great.
    I was wondering, & maybe someone here can answer, say I had a low level bp with 1 yellow & 1 blue cover, if I lent him to a team mate would they have a chance at a rage of the Panther team up?(black power) or are the cover powers you have the only ones available to them?

    Maybe a note on bad team ups would be useful too, or characters that only give out 1 of their cover powers like ares or juggs icon_e_smile.gif

    If you are doing a poll, please list the powers separately - most of my alliance has built mbw with 5b 0p so you are guaranteed the stun when handing out teamups.

    The best ones imo are juggernaut green, obw purple, mbw blue, and Hawkeye purple. There are plenty of other good ones to get, but for loan out these are all useful, have relatively fast returns, and are not level dependent - so if you have a roster spot you can build a character specifically for teamups without using iso.

    Except for obw, they are also enemies you are unlikely to face in pvp so getting the teamups from your battles is unlikely.

    To answer your question when you give a TU they get the level and cover you have so if you have BP 1 yellow your alliance can only get yellow. If you do not have black then they cannot receive black.
  • Factoring in time it takes to loan out and availability I think Juggernaut at 4 hours is easily the best. I think you can only get Unstoppable Crash since Headbutt is a self-damage move, whereas it'd be pretty hard to have most 3*/4* with only a specific skill that you want to loan out.

    Best ones are

    5th level juggs
    5 level both red and purple 1* hawkeye
    5th level blue 1* black widow ( don't put any purple covers on it to make sure person gets blue)

    Powerful for very little AP, comes back and is available again real fast

    I'm fond of well-leveled characters with one or more offensive moves that cost 7 AP or less. Some of these (Deadpool, for example) are obviously A-list, but Captain Marvel, Psylocke, and even Ragnarok can be quite welcome if you get the right skill from the loaner.

    No, you can only give tu with abilities you have. For example, i can't give im40 teams ups to anyone since recharge cannot be sent as a team up and my im40 is 0/0/1

    Love all of those.

    My alliance collects a lot of obw for recon tus. : )

    Other good utility skills are Mnmags purple for board control, and if you're going up against goon-fed falcon or such, Trickery is also great.

    Personally I built a cstorm with windstorm and raging tempest only and levelled her up for a guaranteed windstorm tu. icon_e_smile.gif
  • The best imo
    MBW Widow sting 9 TUAP = 5 stun
    OBW Ag.Recon 8 TUAP

    Always sold out for my teammates.

    EDIT : 3* as loan char is not possible because :
    1. for example : ur 166 Black Panther won't guarantee that ur teammate will get Rage of the Panther. It's either yellow/blue/black.
    2. Sometimes u need them, usually on PVE, so u won't loan em out.
    3. Best way is to softcap 3*, example : 140 HT 5/5/0.. but r u sure u want to build 140 HT or other softcap 3* just to loan it out?
  • DD's blue does recycle and respawn.

    I tend to agree that a 3* list isn't that useful. the 1* and 2*s with abilities that don't need leveling are by far the best, and I'm always very happy to bring a 1* bw 5 cover blue into battle.
  • I do like to keep a high damage TU up my sleeve, though, in case of emergency. I hardly ever need it, but I clearly recall a shield hop where a Call the Storm TU saved my virtual butt.

    HT green is a specialized TUp but a great one nonetheless (all the greenless teams, hail Flame Jet and Onslaught TUps. More so Flame Jet). Just imagine hitting it, maybe multiple instances of it (it's cheap!), with 12+ green stockpiled.

    i.e. What you do if you have a team that doesn't have a (good) green move, like laken/blade/falcon (or spidey) for survival nodes
  • I have 3 1* 0/5 black widows in my roster just for TU sends. Those stuns can be real lifesavers.
    If she wouldn't exist i would go either for 5/0 juggs or 3/0/0 obw.

    i have this set up that i always send out to my team. super effective, i like it against hulk. i send this one out several times a day.

    What? No. These are both awfully overpriced.

    Daredevil, Blade and Cap are also only 8 hours "on patrol" which is a big plus compared to say Panther or Punisher who need 24 hours to return. Those 3 can safely be loaned before going to
    bed. And all their powers save for Cap's yellow are good/great as TU.

    Anyway, for TU's worthy of having, that don't need leveling up, I'd choose:

    OBW purpleflag.png L3, L2, L1, L5, L4
    MBW blueflag.png
    MMN purpleflag.png
    GSBW purpleflag.png
    Juggs greenflag.png
    Venom purpleflag.png L5 for team stun
    c.Storm greenflag.png L5 or you're better off with m.Storm

    Mystique blueflag.png
    Loki blackflag.png
