Whom to throw away?

Unknown

I have to decide on the hero(es) that will be deleted (roster 44/44 - 4 *, 5 **, 30 ***, 5 ****) the next time I will need a slot (Probably after IF pve is finished) and, so far, Colossus is on the top of the list. There are 5 more 3* on the list. Who would you keep and who would you delete first?

- Colossus (40 0/0/1) - Because he has only 1 cover and I have never seen anyone use him. Is he any good? I haven't played against him at all (I guess no one is playing him)
- Mohawk Storm (66 3/3/1) - Because I can't see myself ever using her over other heroes
- She-Hulk (66 3/2/2) - Same as above
- Captain Marvel (40 1/1/3) - Because she is bad
- Ragnarok (86 5/5/*) - Because he sucks
- Human Torch (90 5/3/5) - Because he is too weak in pvp climbing, no one is afraid of him and isn't useful in pve

Do not sell ragnarok or human torch. Rags will be getting a 3rd power soon and he could turn out to be really useful. And HT is fully covered. Yes he is squishy but his red is one of the best there is out there.

If i had to sell a 3*, of those i would sell colossus. What 2* do you have? I would consider selling 2* before any 3*, even colossus lol

Why don't you get rid of 3/4 of your 1*s? You only need one for DDQ

DaveR4470

I assume you're holding on to those four one-star characters because you don't have three fully-covered 2* chars yet. Otherwise... dude. Get rid of the 1*s first.

Otherwise... yeah, Colossus. He's like a B-list tank at best. No great loss.

woopie

3*s are useful because you never know who's going to be needed for an essential node. I say drop the 1*s

Unknown

Hmm, you do have a point about the 1*. I was already thinking that IM45 should go before the 3*. The rest are, as you've probably guessed, MBW, MStorm, Juggs. I don't know about these last 3. I've been away from the game for almost 7 months (with only a couple 2-day breaks) and I don't know if they are needed in a pvp or pve event. If you say they are not needed, then I'll probably keep only Juggs. Right?

As for the 2*, I have maxed OBW, Ares, Thor, Storm is only lv50 and MNMagneto is a very low lv19. I like Ares more than Thor, so if I had to delete one of them, I'd probably choose Thor.

Of the 3*, many of them are fully covered, but low level. Top 12 (above lv 95) right now are
- level 150-166: Punisher, Patch, Psylocke, CMags, BP,
- level 95-130: Thor, Daken, Hulk, Sentry, Hood, Dr. Doom, Daredevil. Cap. America

This week I'll probably buy the last black cover for XF (for 5/5/3) and get him to 200 with the ISO I have stored so I have to decide who other to level to use with XF. With my current roster I was thinking a XF/Cap/Loki team, although Loki is only 5/5/1. Heroes I miss completely are
- Beast, Doctor Octopus, Rocket & Groot, Squirrel Girl and 4* Thor

and the following are very low covered (3-7 covers)
- Blade, Captain Marvel, Colossus, Deadpool, Gamora, Luke Cage, Mystique, She-Hulk,

I think this sums up how my roster looks like these days

Unknown

Any reason why you still have 4 1 stars?

I wouldn't sell she-hulk as they may rework her. I have a level 40 one waiting for that day.

I think Colossus was good and unerappreciated, and I know a lot of peolpe who felt the same, but...that was before Luke Cage. Cage makes it all a moot point since he's undenayably better than Colossus.

Keep torch, especially if you don't have a high punisher or Lthor. I ran a lvl 90 torch with daken and falcon almost exlcusively for several months on pve for goons and baddies up to level 100 - 120 (that's pointelss I guess if you don't have falcon or daken)

Personally I think CM sucks pretty hard and I've sold 13 of her covers or more. But her red charge could be useful.

If you have 1*'s I'd honestly sell them all except jugs.

Unknown

You have been most helpful. Based on the feedback, I decided on the order they will go, starting with the 1* (except Juggs, maybe BW too), followed by Colossus, Captain Marvel and Mohawk Storm.

Thank you all and have a good day (or night).

Unknown

If DDQ came out while I still had my Storm 1* I would have kept her. You can safely sell IM35 tho, assuming you are not having trouble in Heroic PvEs with your 2* roster.

I am currently beating the DDQ node with a level 40 Juggernaut, and a level 12 MBW who only has 5 blue covers, no Pink. Really, all you need is Juggs but I send MBW on TUs for my alliance, so, bonus. Adding Storm to this mix would add a yellow and black outlet to win faster and a TU option if the board just won't co-operate.

You are absolutely correct. Usually, I am the one to mention this mistake to others, but I missed the typo this time. Fixed.

Captain Marvel and Human Torch is one of my go-to PvE teams, usually with Daken as the third. Captain Marvel tanks red and black, and when she gets hit she fuels Fireballs and Infernos.

Unknown

I use Mohawk Storm a lot because I like what she does, but she is not part of my "A" team for fighting goons and that is her only real use. I try to use Colossus when the opportunity arises, but he also doesn't seem to be very good. She-Hulk is pretty terrible, but so was X-Force Wolverine before his buff so I'd wait to see what her unvaulting brings.

I meant to say all this yesterday instead of just being a grammar nerd, but I got distracted. X-Force + Thoress leaves you with a purple hole in your board (which isn't filled in any really amazing way at 4* right now), and if you're relatively poor like me and running X-Force and Fury you're left without active red. I would cut from your unusable list based on your active color needs.

Storm - I want to heroes to be as consistent as possible and this is why I don't like MoStorm. Never did actually a lot, but after the change to her red she is unplayable for me. Spend 10 green to get 10-15 AP back (some of which I may not need) with a chance for a cascade? I'd prefer to use the green to do something that will have an immediate effect. Her health is quite pathetic. Unless she is covered, she will probably need healing after 2 matches. Since she is a Lazy version, I don't think she will ever change, which means I will never like her more.

Colossus - I have no idea how good or bad he is because I have never played against him. I don't think I have even seen him on a team. Mine has only 1 cover so will be the first to go after the 1*s.

She-Hulk - The only reason I decided to keep her is that, as others mentioned, she may receive a facelift. She has good health and if she also gets a couple good powers I will want to try her.

I have a 79 5/4/4 XF and 220k ISO which is enough to level him to the low 200s. I also have 4800HP, but I decided to wait and see if his black is offered as a reward in a pvp in the near future before I jump in and buy his last cover. I have 0 covers of 4hor, so I was thinking that pairing XF with Loki and Cap would be interesting and, possibly, fun to play. The overlap in active powers is close to ideal, with only black being an issue, but I hope the positioning will handle this most of the time.

Unknown

Yeah, X-Force Loki Cap sounds like a pretty reasonable and fun team. Cap can be slow, but if he gets a surgical strikeload of red or blue dumped into his lap it'll certainly speed things up. I like Magneto in that color profile because of Surgical Strike and Northern Polarizing Force, but in my humble opinion there are fewer characters that are more fun to play than Steve Rodgers.

Poor Colossus. His red can do a lot of damange, and his yellow and black seem like they should be kind of fun (at least on paper). In practice, though, he just never seems to be very effective. Now that Cyclops does a lot of sexier stuff at his rarity and color scheme, I doubt you'll ever see him at all.

DaveR4470

Keep Juggy. He's actually useful on occasion -- I actually use him in early stages of the simulator from time to time. And he's the best option for Combined Arms -- or at least the "least worst" option.

Edit: also good for the one-star DDQ node.

Who are your 2*'s? Not all of them are worth leveling.

Preferably no one. If one of those four have to go I'd go with Storm though.
What does your two-star roster look like?

dfields3710

lvl 94 moonstone 5/5/3, lvl 72 Daken 4/4/5, lvl 54 capt marvel, lvl 49 Johnny storm 5/2/1, lvl 39 MNM 5/2/4, lvl 38 Modern Hawkeye 2/4/3, lvl 31 Modern capt america 5/1/3, lvl 28 classic storm 4/5/3.

Also I do have one of the hood and that's basically it
