    Drax?

    I would think he would be saved for a GotG2 tie in.

    My guess would be Winter Solider for the Civil War tie in.

    PLEASE change the load screen. I don't even care if you recycle an old one. If you were gonna stop changing the load screen, why did you let it get stuck on Chud

    Well, let's see. Civil War. If you go by the movie stuff, Black Panther seems to be a bit revenge-motivated, so that's a possibility. I'd be surprised if we didn't get Bucky though for Civil War. What other characters from the movie are motivated by revenge from their comics lore?

    I'm betting it's Drax as they'll likely save Winter Soldier to a reward for the civil war event. I'd assume anyway.

    As for the loan screen, I'd imagine that'll change for civil war as well. Ala ultron.

    This is very unlikely but it could be Zemo.

    Timing seems strange to add another Guardian of the Galaxy, and I don't consider Winter Soldier to be motivated by revenge, or at least not more than a number of stronger motivations.

    Assuming it's not Drax, though, I'm having trouble thinking of too many Marvel heroes (for some value of "hero") motivated by revenge. Punisher and Ghost Rider (vengeance, same basic thing) are already in the game. Lots of villains are motivated by revenge, though...

    I think it's Winter Soldier. About time for some Civil War hype to hit the game....

    (As always, anything listed below is subject to change before release)

    R98!


    - Fixed a rare progression blocker in the first stages of the game.

    Is that the same fix that was in R96?

      Stay vigilant…

    What’s Hot…
      - Versus Season XXV gets underway! Rumble into battle with Quake!

    What’s Changed…
      - Tiles now update correctly after a hero is stunned. - Passive effects no longer trigger right before a hero is downed after being airborne. - Green Goblin no longer fortifies tiles that are already fortified. - Miles Morales no longer activates
    Hide and Seek when there aren’t any available purple tiles on the board.
    - Fixed a bug in the early parts of the game that could prevent player progression.

    If not just how many progression blockers are there?

    There's no one more vengeful than Doop...

    Well, maybe Punisher. I hope its not Chaykin's Punisher.

    Obviously it's another anagram, and this time it's the word Motivator that tells us to use the rest of the phrase.

    Greet The Avenger - it's Jarvis
    or just maybe
    The Egret Avenger - but we already have Falcon

    My best guess is that they're just rubbish at anagrams, and it's actually...

    Tigra the Avenger
