Information about Galactus Event

Unknown

I'm thinking Blade against Galactus. Adding strike tiles and attack to weaken him and make "espionage" from OBW more deadly.

Plus, the real winner-- Blade's nighstalker (or whatever his black attack is called). Steal 2-3 AP per turn would surely slowdown galactus more than Hood or any one else, assuming Galactus's strongest is black!!!

Star-Lord ability that increases ability cost. If it was 30, Star Lord could single handedly stall Galactus for as long as the appropriate AP fuel was available.

Which triggers in my mind StarLord/Galactus dance off in my mind. Kind of a bummer, but I suspect there's plenty more tools on the table that won't break the encounter.

Problem is a lvl 80 tanks black for a lvl 94 . She will be boosted to 150 I think, but having a lvl 166 will blow it off. So... no espionage fun

You can forget about espionage anyway unless you are playing 2*-only or underleveled 3*

ha, my blade is 140 - been wanting to max him but been working on 4*s instead. that might work out. problem is, the big black ability is listed 3rd in his ability order, meaning it likely won't be considered his strongest color. that would be nice though. fist/blade/obw would be very strong if blade black stole black, you'd get that rolling and keep it drained. I don't think they'd let something like that happen - sounds too easy.

CrookedKnight

And now it destroys every tile on the board, meaning Shadow Step won't help you, while Cosmic tiles generate 2 AP of each color so his biggest AP pool isn't always black anymore.

Hm. You know what'll still avoid the damage, though? Fastball Special.

wouldnt punisher be one of the better people to take in. Get below 40% KO

Man! we are sharing too much info here. They are eliminating options that we discuss about. I'm afraid by tomorrow it will somehow kill fastballed hero...

And become AP steal immune too

The issue with is simple.. the team destruction is a 3rd ability, so black is not his strongest color... just the one he needs to fire his ability.. Chances are you will be stealing the wrong color.

I'll have to try it out in the early rounds, but I'm thinking Hood/punisher/shehulk right now. She hulk's two ap color drain (at 5 green covers) may be random but they're so cheap that it won't make much of difference while Hood is constantly stealing. Eventually you'll hit it before it gets too high. Punisher can actually use all that black ap you've been stealing/denying to do damage over time, and that red at 5 covers can end the fight quicker at 40% health. In the meantime, Shulkie can use the red to shake up the board when needed. And Hood's yellow won't leave him exposed since Galactus doesn't take an active turn.

Those aren't my regular go-to characters, so maybe I'm walking into a big purple curb stomp, but it could work. (it will take a while admittedly, especially on the higher rounds)

TxMoose

really it depends on how many cds he throws out per turn and how long the cds are and what colors they fall on (consistent like antman and squirrel girl or random like sentry)....and if he moves the board. if he doesn't move the board, I see witch/gsbw/shulk getting a try. if he does move the board, that plan becomes much less effective if blue is one of his colors.

something some might of miss if im understanding it right there are no robots just villians in the sub groups. How that sounds to me this is nothing more then the sim pve with a boss battle and remember this is not Scaling this is a fix amount of levels meaning if you have a hard time in sim PVE good luck once this event gets past stage 5 or 6

on the ultron who cares about level 150 to 180 robots that can be taken down just thing a team of 180 Juggie carnage another major hitter when your max people are 100 or 120

unless im wrong what would not shock me .

Should probably level-set expectations now. If it were level 1 enemies, most people are still not getting past round 6.

He hungers.

Hopefully, there are enough points for everyone in an alliance to get all of the rewards. And SCROLLABLE LEADERBOARDS!

GSBW's 3rd ability is purple and it is her strongest color.

Im thinking careful use of OBW and Psylocke may still stall out this match for valuable time, if there's a third that can deal with cool downs or cosmic tiles, that should be a good line up.

Use OBW purple to drain all colors but purple, you're matching purple to use it so espionage should be sapping his purple reserve as well, time psylocke blue carefully.

Not foolproof mind you, but worth trying, IMO.

Event details are up

Seems no Boss battle 2nd map like ulltron (you know beat round 6 get cover ect) where you could just take deadpool in and win a cover with whales

a mod needs to lock this thread so we stop giving our strategies for the dev team to remove from the event. Without this thread, we might have had a chance.
