    I usually pick slice 1 when I want to go for 1300. Purple is the one Ant-man color I have maxed though, so this time I'll go with slice 5 and 1000 points.

    Depends on what level your Professor is. In order for it to work, Masterplan needs to produce purple, so his blue damage needs to be less than GSBW's purple damage. Scarlet Witch is a nice third.
    I may go with X-force and either Daken or Grocket for extended pushes.

    For Falcon PvP, slice 1 is high scoring. With GSBW PvP, the time slot is all different, thus I assume it might be different.

    The Holy Spread Sheet of Gross Oversimplification has very few suggestions. In fact, there are only 5 that don't have any active powers that overlap with GSBW, and they are Black Panther, Daken, Luke Cage, Spider-Man and The Hood. I've given Daken / Hood a spin, living with the overlap in Black, but Hood's too squishy. So instead I've been trying Daken / Professor X with some success. And there's no overlap there because my prof is 5/0/3 and so has no purple and only passives. He's also squishy, but packs a punch when there's a match-5.

    I'm thinking of swapping out Daken for Black Panther, but this event BP isn't boosted so that might be less successful. I'm also tempted by Witch / Prof X, overlaps be damned.

    :edit: Witch / Prof X, oh my gosh golly.

    I can usually get to 1300 in Slice 1 in the Monday-Wednesday tournament too...

    Suggestions for someone w/o a usable Prof X and a GSBW w/ a 4 green / 5 red / 1 purple build? Running w/ most high tier 3*s w/ 10-12 covers in the 104-114 range. And, at some point, I'll put my roster up and provide a link, so I don't have to put that each time. Thanks!

    That assumes the servers get back up and running, of course.... icon_mad.gif

    And, is Slice 1 still the high scoring one for this event?

    If you have MoStorm and Daken, i would go that route.

    I suspect that there will be a lot of people running PX/SW/GSBW.

    My counter is going to be GSBW/JG/PX. It is slower on O, but it totally negates the SW and match 5 combos.

    Thanks for the reply, but no dice. Mohawk is only 4/3/1 and 91 Level. Of the boosted characters that are usable for me, I have Patch, Daken, and Sentry! Grocket is somewhat passable, but likely slow bcs I don't have many blue covers.

    Gonna be a chore to get to 800 in this one. If Slice 1 is still the highest scoring bracket, I'll probably jump into that one and just hope I can get some decent boards and use some solid unboosted characters (IF, Cyke, KK, Cage). Whomp, whomp.

    I'm having much fun with Rocket & Groot amd Scarlet Witch. I'm guessing it's not too hot in defence, but when it works, Lord it's fast and fun.
    I've Got a Plan into Arcane Incantation into Deceptive Tactics off of a multiplier gem into Sniper Rifle into they are all dead, Dave, everybody is dead.

    Overnight I lost more than 200 points, I guess level 125 5/3/5 GSBW, level 166 3/5/5 Witch and level 188 5/0/3 Professor X just aren't that good on defence.

    My retaliation nodes are mostly Patch / Daken, so that seems to be the team of choice. And X Witch eats them for breakfast. Which it's time for.

    You're not going to hop with PX against all the JG teams out there.

    all you have to is avoid the JG teams. line up other teams for you hop, there is a skip button. still works against fistbusters and the like I'm guessing.
