Best teams in a hypothetical tourney

Unknown
edited February 2015 in MPQ General Discussion
Was a suggestion for color restricted tournaments. No such thing exists but if they did and worked by locking out all characters with a chosen color who would you play with? So a no-green tournament means no hulk, no wolvie, no torch, no 2-3* thor etc.

What would be your favorite team in a tournament with no :
Red
Blue
Yellow
Green
Purple
Black

Honestly we might not even notice in a tournament with no purple allowed but what would be your go to team in a world with no green, black, or red?

    No green? Hmmm. Captain marvel, doctor doom and cmags? Would that work?

    How about. "No Tinykitty Given" team - Beast, Doctor Octopus and Bagman.
  • No Purple is easy: XF, TGT, Hood/Cyclops/IM40/Rocket and Groot

    No Black: TGT, IM40, Squirrel Girl/Fury

    No Blue: XF, Deadpool, Blade

    No Red: XF, Mystique, Fury

    No Green: TGT, Hood, Fury/Cyclops/IM40

    No Yellow (Hardest one, eliminates almost every 4* and most the best 3*): Blade, Daken, Devil Dino
  • These are actually great tournament ideas...would really mix things up. I'm a huge fan. You'd see a lot of new team combinations

    That's actually a really good idea for a tourney. Would be really rough for 2* people though, considering how many of the people in there have greenflag.pngredflag.png or blueflag.png

    Actually lets think about it for 2*s

    No greenflag.png : obw, mn hawkeye, mn mags (or maybe CM)
    No redflag.png obw cstorm mnmags
    No blueflag.png(or purpleflag.png ) take your pick of rgy people
    No yellowflag.png actually might be the toughest on reflection, that's pretty much just OBW, mags, and DAs
  • No Green:
    Nick Fury + 4hor + Hood
    Black Panther thrown in maybe

    No Red:
    Xforce + Hood + Nick Fury

    No Yellow:
    Loki + Blade + Daken?
    This one if actually super tough. I never realized how many characters have a yellow ability haha. Especially the high health ones.

    No Blue:
    Xforce + Loki + Lazy Thor

    No Purple:
    Xforce + 4hor + Hood

    No Black:
    4hor + Nick Fury + Patch

    No yellow: MnMags-Mystique- Gamora/Torch/Hulk/Dino/Blade whoever.

    Alternatively, Daken-Blade-Deadpool

    For 2* No yellow best would be Torch-OBW-Daken, hands down. Can use Mags/Hawkeye here though as an option.

    No red can't have mnmags, it's OBW-Storm-Daken. (this one's the most brutal, only other options are Bullseye and Bagman)
  • Shouldn't there be a thread for each no color team comp?
  • Hmmm... if we list the colors, and just put the top players in order, what do we get? (eg x-force, thor4, fury, hood, bp, cap, thor3, daken)

    blacktile.png thor4, fury, cap || thor3
    bluetile.png x-force, thor3
    greentile.png thor4, fury, hood, || bp, cap, daken
    purpletile.png x-force, thor4, hood || cap, thor3,
    redtile.png x-force, fury, hood || bp, daken
    yellowtile.png daken

    Green, Purple, and Red are a match to suggestions so far. Interesting how so many of the top have yellow or blue powers.
    Black doesn't work because of overlap with thor4 and cap's red and blue


    For 2*:
    blacktile.png Thor/Ares, Mag, CStorm
    greentile.png I like Mag, Cap Marvel, Cap America.
    Mag pink feeds Blue stun. Black is the power hit. Red can be either. Yellow is board shake.
    redtile.png Agreed on OBW, CStorm, Daken (espionage with strikes)
    yellowtile.png Agreed with OBW, Torch, Daken I'd go with torch over mag here because of usable black and pink purple overlap with obw.
    bluetile.png Ares, Moonstone, Cap Marvel
    purpletile.png Ares, CStorm, Cap Marvel
  • I don't think any characters should be blocked, just never have a single color spawn on the board. So, if there was no green, you could still use Lazy Thor, but his green power would be useless (unless he can create green tiles?). The extra cascades from having one less color would drive people insane when the AI hits them though.

    I have been asking for this for so long! It could be a 6-day event. Each day, a colour is "banned" and you can't play characters with that colour. Blam! Enforced team diversity. Good to hear another person thought of it. Let's try to make it gain traction.
  • No green: bp/hood
    No black: lthor/cMags
    No red: xforce/hood
    No yellow: blade/daken
    No blue: xforce/hulk
    No purple: xforce/4thor
  • This would be an interesting pvp, but what if incase of just locking the character they just lock the ability? Passives should not count as there should still be all the colors on the board to avoid insane one move kill cascades. I would like to see this as just a progression pvp like s.i.m.s that they run during break or during the season but just for testing sake. This way no one will complain about the rewards. Preferably an ISO hp token reward simulator to start with.

    That's a totally different game: If you had that then the optimal teams would have more color changers. Mystique's Infiltration would be amazing without allowing Pink or Black. Thor's moves would be even crazier. Any board shake move would have way higher power.
