    I remember a while ago... before weekly boosts were introduced I think... in a Gamora (?) PvP. I was shielded and in reach of 1000 points with a single game. I start a game during the last hour, get beaten badly, curse a bit to myself and re-shield.
    Then the defensive wins start rolling in. I think I must have gotten a dozen or so, and they easily bumped me up past 1000 points. Pretty neat. icon_e_smile.gif
    The defensive team I was using that time was Gamora, Classic Magneto and Loki. I guess I was looking like a soft target but my opponents underestimates those three.
    You shouldn't try to rely on defensive wins to climb though.

    This must've been before they nerfed defensive wins I'm guessing.

    as soon as I got mags covered a couple months ago and played with him a little, he immediately started seeing more time with loki than my thor did. they are a perfect pair. red into purple into cascades of everything. blue nuke and ap control. add any green user - I use thor but patch would work very well too or gamora in this case. against heavy strike makers (blade or grocket teams) I use fist as my green user to force feed loki black to make sure its ready (especially good for grocket). mags loki is very good.

    Best defensive team is Juggs/Ares/Grenadier, level 395 if possible.
    I'd love if they had a joke Muscle PVP for anniversary where you could use a loaner 5/5 270 Muscle.

    LOL can you imagine , IF + 270 Muscle... the attack tile would be insane!

    So true, I will usually skip a Cmags/Loki team due to unlimited cascades and cheap AP. Even if you knock this team out, you're looking at 1-2 players being downed. The worst beat down I ever received was a CMags/Loki/X-Force team. There are obviously better green users out there but X-Force's green board shake worked perfectly with Loki and CMags. I think I got 3 or 4 turns in before my team was demolished icon_cry.gif

    It'd be fun to play as an all-goon team. No tile-moving, just choosing when to cast your powers.

    Crivens, imagine the coding necessary to allow you to choose to end your turn without making a move or firing a power. Now imagine the number of ways it can break what's already there.

    It's an interesting idea, I just don't think the devs have the skillz to implement it.

    I believe it was.
