**** Kingpin (Wilson Fisk) **** Updated (8/22/17)

Could be interesting paired with a 3/5/5 Hood considering that's probably the only way to make sure most of those countdowns go off...

Interesting concept, but doesn't strike me as a character that will pair well with most, and certainly not fast on offence. While the power costs are cheap, only the black does damage up front, and it basically requires another power to have placed a countdown tile already.

in the descripition of the update R73 , its said that the next 4th will be kingpin, if its him, i see no reason to cover his name, since it were already revealed.

These countdowns are so long, just increasing them by 1, at the expense of using Kingpin's black instead, seems like a bad tradeoff.

Let's face it, if there was a 10AP ability that did 10.5k damage and laid down 300 in strike tiles, there are people around here who'd go on a hunger strike until it was nerfed. This wasn't built with the expectation that they'd all go off. The yellows will probably survive half the time, the blues 1/3 of the time, and the blacks 1/4 of the time. So your expected damage is 1451 x 3 x .5 + 3083 x 2 x .25 = 3700, and 302 x 2 x .33 in strike tiles. This isn't anything special for a 10AP ability, but much like the design of Starlord, the devs seem to think that the mere POTENTIAL for massive damage is worthy of a 4* character, even though on average, the damage you'll deal is right in the middle of 3* territory.

IM40 could be an interesting play with this guy around too. Purple to make yellow, yellow to fire cheap recharges that can either be used for AP, or blown up for damage. Just needs a better outlet for red than Tony.

I think we're looking on the wrong rosters to find the really powerful synergies. Imagine how this guy will look in a PVE node backed by two goons who can spam countdown tiles and give him the AP to blow them up in rapid succession. If he's the Kingpin it would be totally natural to see him with Maggia goons. Maybe we'll see a new PVE soon, with this guy at the helm.

Yeah, just thinking about him with 2 muscles is making me want to rage quit

3 ideas- Kingpin, MODOK, or Taskmaster
Kingpin: It seems as if the pink and yellow look to be criminal mind type moves.
MODOK: The moves really Remind me of his power and intelligence
Taskmaster: The last one proves his superior tactics.

It would be cool, and could make this character a true 4*, if black would trigger the CD tile regardless of turns left instead of destroying it for dmg. (or reduced dmg + CD trigger)

As long as you are using CDs that do less than 2959 damage these things are essentially the same (destroying for damage and causing CD to trigger). Plus he'd lose synergy with Falcon/Loki/Others who have CDs that don't do all that much damage in the first place. Heck even 2* Hawkeye and MNM could benefit from this guy throwing their CDs at the enemy.

Unless and until you drastically (and I mean completely) change the frequency and structure for giving out 4 star characters please stop making new ones. There is no reasonable way to cover them up in less than a year and so you are just wasting 95% of the player bases time even releasing them.

Huh, very interesting. The EN version of the notes doesn't include any of that info - https://itunes.apple.com/en/app/marvel- ... 49779?mt=8

That is definitely a mistake.

Stuff like that happens all the time. Worst example I've seen was the Night's King spoiler for Game of Thrones:

Yeah.... Fixed.

28 language text boxes that all start blank and that need to be filled in with information for Apple to review the build based off of. And each text box is on a separate screen that completely refreshes when switching to each language to put the right stuff in. Missed one! In the realm of oopses though, this one is pretty low down there.

Does this mean that you're getting a promotion to floor 500?

I hear ya, setting up multiple languages is never easy, and take WAY longer than it should due to cumbersome data entry.
You'd think that all of these platforms (consoles included) would have made this easier by now.

Well, David will. Luckily, I already made sure to turn up the heat first, so he shouldn't freeze up there. That's good, right?

4* rewards in PvE holds the same rules as Global Thermonuclear War.
