    Whichever hero does the most damage for a color is the one who tanks. If they are tied, the one in the center tanks it.

    Right -> Left -> Center for order. So if the Right and the Left have the same dmg, Right tanks the color. If Right and Center have the same dmg, Center tanks the color.
  • Thanks for the clarification guys

    I may have misunderstood this but it sounds contradicting to me. You're first example with arrows shows Right tanks over both Left and Center while Left tanks over Center. Then you follow that up by saying Center tanks over Right, therefore Center would be the top tanking position, not the lowest, which would make the most sense. Thus left position would be the least tanking position.

    Can someone clarify the tanking order for me?
  • The order of ties goes CENTER > LEFT > RIGHT.

    Whoever is in center before match, will have first dibs in order of a tie in color damage.
  • Listen to Monster Mike.

    If I want to cover my X-Factor with Daken and Hulk, I put Daken in the middle and hulk on the left, with X-Force on the right. Daken wil ltank black, Hulk will tank green.

    Or if you are Hulk-bombing, put patch on the right, hulk on the left, with 'featured' centered.
