    Quite a bit of that is conditional on the board, but i do love seeing the L types, for some reason, those tend to cascade more. but i will take any i am given.

    I love the massive splodge that can appear when Arcane Incantation resolves....

    One time I was able to somewhat create a Punisher skull with GSBW's purple skill. I was so excited that I forgot to take a picture. Not many matches though lol

    The best part about a 5-match is when you look at the board and it doesn't look like there's any moves then all of sudden you eye catches a glorious 5 match.. sucks when you don't realize it until your turn ends!

    My phone is full of pictures of Arcane Incantation splodges, GSBW Deceptive Tactics splodges, and Doom blue -> black splodges.

    16 blacktile.png AP gained.
    Two crit tiles produced. One of them exploded and killed Jean Grey.
    Take particular note of the three innocuous black tiles at the bottom.
    Note how they match away and then led to the team-up tiles matching.

    Should I have killed Jean Grey before doing this? Probably. She only had 1289 health left.
    Was it worth taking a two turn stun and a bunch of AoE damage? Totally.

    Jean ended up dying from the damage and the crit exploding on the red, but she fired her passive twice before she died. Cyclops popped off Optics and a Full Blast to finish the match off.

    I had this come up in a 2* DDQ with Bullseye:

    Match 6 L, Match 5 T, both double critical. Needless to say it was overkill for a DDQ node. icon_e_smile.gif

    To answer the poll question, I don't like a vertical line, but I do like the horizontal line. Having the tiles drop on a horizontal line makes me feel like I'm more in control of the next board. I also like the 3 free AP.

    Even better are the +, L, and T shapes, where I can control how the crit lands.

    generally anything that has 3 bluecrit.png in it. <3 2 star bullseye.
    He's amazing on survival nodes.

    L shaped, and T shapes.

    also the weirdest match 5

    Didn't know it would count the first time I got it.
