Persistent TUs

MarvelMan

I cant recall the rational so Im hoping someone can help me find it. Why did TUs switch from disappearing if you downed an enemy team member to sticking around til the last one dies?

Just had a match where they cast Demolition but I had the AP to take out two opponents, so I did, and knocked the third down to ~half before making a match....boom: Demolition knocks out a char plus.

Why cant we go back to being able to do something about enemy TUs short of wipe the opp team?

The rationale was the story. It was provoking player complaints when they would use a TU, and then one of their players was downed and the effect went away. They said, it doesn't make sense if say Prof X calls in Magneto to do an Iron Hammer, and then if Prof X is downed Magneto just says "F it" and floats away. Or if Punisher throws a Molotov, and because Wolverine is downed, he puts out the fire and walks away.

Thanks!


So kind of one extreme to the other? I get the story aspect, but hate when I have limited control over something. I guess it just comes down to me making it go away.

The way I look at it, if it wasn't a CD tile, I wouldn't have been able to do anything about it anyway. Like if it was Call the Storm... that doesn't activate at 0.

Yeah it gets very annoying when the enemy has a ton of AP they cannot use then all of a sudden Human Torch Flame Jet comes out and of course is placed in the corner!

Then the wonderful AOE T/U's such as Sentry, Thor, Black Panther.. they always seem to come out just as I am about to win the match

I think Id prefer to have it linked to a specific char, like the example where Prof X calls in Magneto or Wolv gets Frank. If you then down THAT char it negates a cool down or trap.
