I think Ms. Marvel is the way to go, just for stretchiness to feed the bubble shattering and her "best" ability to keep the team alive. It does leave Red & Black functionally useless by using her, but my team of Widow/Spidey had glaring holes and it didn't matter because it always a "focus on pink pink pink then sniper the world" type of team. Just wondering if anybody's had any feelings of moderate success with her as of yet and with who.

YOu tried that before?

YOu tried that before? Yeah, as dkffiv suggested, you want another damage dealer. IW creates many powerful protect tiles anyway, I don't think you need Falcon's yellow to help. This might sound funny, but I actually enjoyed using Quicksilver as the third character quite a bit during the Ultron event. The combo go as follow: 1.) Use IW's blue to lock all purple 2.) Use Patch's green 3.) Use Quicksilver low cost skills if possible 4.) Making a blue match to fire Quicksilver's boosted AOE + unlocking all purple tiles. Using Quicksilver's black to make a blue match and complete step 3 and 4 at the same time is great too. Anyway, not the best team, but it was fun to play!

On the other hand, her current status makes doable some interesting (although not massively exploitable) tactics with passive skills that generate tiles: luke cage, IF, and S.W. You lock the tile, wait for the character to produce another one, and then unlock the locked ones for additional effects. By the way, this is the only argument in favor of 5-5-3: you just want to unlock the tiles, without causing cascades, in order to prevent the destruction of the locked tile itself.

That is an interesting tactic. Have you tested it with one of those characters to see if it works? I've been considering switching to 5/3/5 since I rarely need the 4th bubble and with only 3 you know exactly which ones will explode when using her green.

dkffiv wrote: So after playing with her a decent amount in the last PvE, IW still sucks. Maybe its bias but I find it much more difficult to keep her invisible tile up than PX's. It think its mostly due to yellow being a higher priority target for the AI usually. I don't think the invis tile should disappear when IW dies. Decent move but not a high priority one. Blue is really good, the lock down can usually come in handy and the defense tile is useful. Both this and yellow suffer from being random tiles but blue is definitely her best move. Green sucks and its because its completely worthless without having blue up first (unless for some strange reason you're playing her with/against Quicksilver). Its honestly either a 19 or 24 AP nuke for 6k damage, which is terrible. I also really dislike that you lock 4 tiles with blue and it blows up 3 of them so there's a chance the thing you're trying to blow up will survive. AP cost probably needs to get dropped to 9 and the damage should be lowered to something like 2400 +700 per force bubble destroyed (if we're keeping it in line with its current damage ratio). Assuming you got the force bubbles for free, its 531 damage to AP ratio + somewhat random tile destruction (335 damage to AP if you cost it at 19). For a legendary with a single offensive move that's really expensive, I think it should do around 9k damage if its going to cost 12. Blue is good but not game breaking, yellow is mediocre, green is terrible.
