Yeah, that was a team of stragglers after my other two teams got wiped by bad boards. My board manipulators are not very well leveled or covered. But I do have a link in my sig to my roster, I'll take some suggestions!

But I do have a link in my sig to my roster, I'll take some suggestions! Just took a quick peak at your roster. Why not give 2* Hawkeye a shot at him. Partner him with someone who can make match fives and watch those speed shots stack up. As long as they are a couple rows from the bottom, they'll do nice damage on Ultron. Maybe partner him with GSBW and Scarlet Witch. Scarlet Witch's blue will generate Purple (and possible a match 5 for a Speed Shot) and then use GSBW's purple to make match fives and take out bombs. Scarlet Witch's green gives a little bit of board control in an emergency, and GSBW's green can take out bombs if you line it up right.

He had about 26k health in round 8 previously (because retribution was good for a touch over 10k). Someone else reported his bomb damage as ~4k in round 8. In the most recent gauntlet, bomb damage was way up (I think it was 12k per for me, and sim 42 was about 320 as a scaling reference point)

Didn't think about pulling them into Ultron because I wanted them to stay alive for the Essentials without resurrecting them each time. I will try them out on Ultron too... if I have to use a health pack to bring someone back to life, I guess it doesn't really matter who it is.

Levels don't matter. You could have a 166 cap, but if he's covered 5/4/4 then he's pointless b/c he can't overwrite bombs. You're in a tough spot JV. Your lcap doesn't have enough covers to overwrite bombs and you don't have 2* cap at all. Your only chance at directly taking out bombs is GSBW, but she's so slow you're prob going to get busted more often than not. I'd try her w/cyc & scarlet witch and hope for a good board.

I don't like people who are only not jerks because someone is watching.

No matter what character you have, if they don't have the AP, and don't have the health, they don't stand a chance against a stray bomb.

I'm furious at the game right now - the Sentry waves are annoying and grindy, the Ultron boards are a complete crapshoot - you don't get a halfway decent board and you're just plain done. I think I'm going to concentrate on Women of Marvel and Oscorp: Heroic. I may well bow out of the next one even if it does introduce a new character. This is just plain not fun.

Lcap, Mnmag, IM40(2yellow) has been my only way to deal with this nonsense. Even then it's a huge gamble. If I'm unable to charge yellow or purple in the first couple of turns, its over. If too many of Cap tiles get wiped from the bottom and I run out of ap, its over. I've tried multiple 2* Hawkeye 5-match team comps with a horrible success rate. I don't know how you guys are running Witch or Gsbw. Gsbw is too slow without Witch and my Witch tiles constantly get wiped from the bottom. I might have to recruit a level 1 Hawkeye.
