    My favorite Switch team is Antman/Kingpin/Scarlet Witch. So many countdowns...so many finger pokes!

    Interesting. I like Kingpin / Scarlet Witch / Iron Fist. Use the purple she generates to make more black, without which Kingpin can't point his finger.

    Yeah, SWitch/IF with any character that has a strong black ability is pretty mean as well.

    Yeah, I think I'd be willing to take one for the team here, guys..... I know, I know -- it's big of me.

    Way better than her twin sisters.

    Scarlet Witch doesn't even go here.

    But in all seriousness, SW is a ton of fun in PvE against goons.

    Ideal team:

    SW + JG + Captain Falcon.

    Oh? There's an ability that can decrease CDs as a passive? And there's a passive CD that makes purple? And there's a purple that does AoE and wipes out enemy CD tiles? And Goons only attack with CD tiles?

    Count me out.

    I mean, it's like when I see a FistBuster. Any time I see SW, I feel the urge to bring a 5 Blue cover JG along with me.

    Surprised nobody has mentioned Witch + Jean Grey + Captain Falcon. That team is carrying me in pve at the moment. Falcap speeds up witch's countdown tile giving heaps of purple for Jean to wipe everyone (and enemy tiles) out.

    Now it is a 'broken' combo for most of us, but she was part of the best PvE team ever

    ProfX+GSBW+SW

    I literally destroyed 395 Gauntlet nodes with this team.

    Duuuuude. The first rule of 'broken' combo is...

    Switch + lcap + hood can take on almost any team too. Stun everyone with her purple and cap blue, nuke with cap red, hood reduces the timers, rinse repeat.

    This should also work with flaptain instead of hood.

    Mmmm I think you misunderstood me (or I did not write it clearly enough icon_razz.gif). When I said broken I wasn't talking about OP or super good combo, I was saying that after the change in match damage the combo is broken for all of us who had Xavier leveled between 210 and 220 to maximize blue damage, so broken was 'not working anymore' icon_razz.gif

    PS: I think devs know already about this combo ...

    To be honest, there are plenty of times when I don't even think the devs know how their game is played, let alone know about what combos work.

    That's why we got the Chos and the MrFs and the 5*s.

    Its like they look at the financial data in a vacuum when they make some of these decisions, rendering the actual character designs totally a mystery to them. "Last time we introduced a character based on Hulk, people spent lots of money on him. Let's try that again. Anyone know another hulk?" "I've got an idea for one that eats hotdogs..." "Okay, let's try that."

    Any character that functions as a cheap or passive AP accelerator is going to get used a lot, regardless of whatever else they bring to the table. So what if it's her one trick, it's a trick that wins matches way more often than it doesn't, and I've lost plenty of matches to Hood teams because I got a little unlucky at the start with my early AP gen that he kept scooping up before I could kill him. And for the record, she allows me to use Iceman to lock Jean down till she gets squashed, so no, Jean does not render her useless at all.

    She is my support for BWGS - the purple (I've always thought pink!!) feed into Deceptive tactics and that speeds up green sniper shot collection!!

    My go to team in DDQ is BWGS 5/3/5, SW 4/5/3 & BP 4/4/5

    Actually my go to for most PvP too

    Didn't want to state the obvious since that team is broken now. Time to move on. icon_e_sad.gif
