    When you see how many minimally-covered X23s are beating a 5/5/5 maxed 4* that has an appropriate counter-move, you realize just how incredibly awful Elektra is.

    Well the AI is dumb. If I were playing Elektra I would hang onto my purple tile there was a chance of overwriting your traps or stealing a real powerful tile. Her purple counters both of X23s key damage generation methods. On the other hand it empowers X23s purple ability if fired randomly.

    Same with shadow step, use it when your opponent gets a trap on the board, not just when charged.

    The AI plays Thor well because most of the abilities are unsophisticated. Whereas Elektra is designed to require timing, and the AI has the timing of a fart in a crowded elevator.

    My 131 1/3/2 managed it 6th try. I think the X-23 red I got out of the taco vault just before trying definitely helped.

    Managed with a 1/2/3 X-23, but it probably took almost 20 tries, never had a very good board and Elektra kept getting lucky cascades when she's almost down

    And of course Elektra had one last trick up her sleeve, pulled my 8th Carnage green with the token. Well, at least I can say I defeated her icon_lol.gif

    Tried many times with my 0/1/3 X23 - finally managed it this morning after getting a board relatively clear of black and red. Got my fourth purpleflag.pngicon_antman.png from the legendary icon_e_biggrin.gif

    CPU got 20 red and black before i had the chance to fire off my purple. Nice to see when Elektra makes a simple match and 5 red fall in a perfect spot. No, but thanks. Keep your LT to yourself....

    My 0/2/2 can't do it. Burnt through a load of health packs and boosts. Got close once but she dropped a ballet of death on the one red tile I could get to (and I matched the other nine) - how convenient

    Mine's 0/1/3 and I did really well on the second try, but she slapped her black down and that was pretty much it. Never really got close again and after 7 tries I gave up.

    Got close a few times with my 0/1/3 but almost every board was horrible.

    Took me 4 tries at 0/1/4, the last 2 had max boost. It needs a lot of luck, because you're doomed if she gets black or red off. I got a couple lucky cascades in the beginning to get a purple off, then played slow denial to the end.

    I hope the GR, Chulk, and Miles DDQ aren't like this, though I at least have some covers on Chulk...
