    The Other Guy - 0 purpletile.png AP
    (PASSIVE) Banner strains to control his inner nature. At the start of your turn, if you have 10 or more Green AP and you don’t have one already, create a 2-turn Transform Countdown tile. When it goes off, Banner transforms into Hulk form. (Hulk replaces Banner until downed and makes matches for his team at turn start.)
    Level Upgrades
      Level 2: Banners transformation begins at 9 Green AP or more. Level 3: Banner’s transformation begins at 8 Green AP or more. Level 4: Banner’s transformation begins at 7 Green AP or more. Level 5: Banner’s transformation begins at 6 Green AP or more.
    Max Level
      Level 3: Banner’s transformation begins at 8 Green AP or more. Level 4: Banner’s transformation begins at 7 Green AP or more. Level 5: Banner’s transformation begins at 6 Green AP or more.


    After Transformation to The Hulk the above powers disappear and the following two appear:
      Smash - 9 greentile.png AP
      The Hulk is ANGRY! SMASH! Hulk deals 2093 damage to the enemy team.
      Level 450: Deals 8411 damage to the enemy team.

        GRAAAGH - 0 redtile.png AP
        (PASSIVE) The Hulk goes berserk, wreaking havoc on your foes. At the start of each turn, Hulk makes a match for you, dealing damage but receiving no AP. This clears lines and creates Critical tiles as normal (but no extra turns).
        When the Hulk is downed he returns to Banner form.
        Level 450: No change.


        Notes:
          The Hulk does a match for the player then the player gets to match afterwards, it's basically a free match that causes damage. Other questions I will answer when I get confirmation on what I'm seeing.

              With the focus on colors I'm hoping its Thanos? Infinity Gauntlet Flavor? Or is that too much to ask...

              I felt we were going to get a 5* and with the patch hint I thought it was going to be a World War Hulk. But this doesn't scream Hulk to me. Hmm.

              5* Prof. X came to my mind as the first option... thanks to two passives... or Apocalypse.

              Anyone else notice so much going on with "Banner" fixes...massive damage from a "Banner" perhaps

              Sounds like Banner powers that may lead into unannounced Hulk powers when he transforms. Banner would make sense with 2 passives....

              Because the hint is gamma gamma hey.

              A hint they gave before was gamma gamma hey, which was the tittle of the letters forum in some She Hulk comics.
              My guess is a four star She hulk. This is because she is intelligent and can count things and "lawyer" things up.

              Whether it's a she or a he is up for guesses, but it's definitely a five star.

              It has to be 5* Cho!!! His blue will work the way 4* Cho's black is suppose to work!! Cho has to be the devs favorite Hulk and rather than rebalance him they will just make him a 5*!!!

              Banner would make sense with 2 passives, we've seen a bunch of other super smart characters rocking the black and blue together (Cho, Mr F, Panther).

              Nothing in those descriptions suggests transformation, although the precis is always a little ambiguous. That purple passive is listed as "Stun/Special Tile", but the description only gives a reference to a special tile. I think if this character transforms, it's likely going to be tied to that passive - especially if it does massive damage, a one-way transformation means you can't just use that ability to win each match.

              If it is Banner/Hulk, then the obvious choice for specific colour AP is Green, to represent gamma radiation. I think that the passive won't trigger on every match, but only after the Green AP pool reaches a certain threshold. This way, the Blue passive deals damage and creates green tiles, but you need to match green tiles away in order to keep that passive going, but if you gather up enough Green, then the purple passive will start the countdown on transformation.

              Obviously this will be pre-adamantine Wolverine, since there's "only" one Wolverine in the 5* tier.

              Fear the bone claws.

              Maestro?

              Best guess I got.

              I'm liking the Banner thoughts, although I'm not reading his books at the moment so not sure if he just being human would translate well to a 5*

              Color scheme wise I was thinking they would pair well with the Gods... And we've already seen Mephisto in the game as an NPC, so I'm going with the Devil. Fits as a 5* much better than puny Banner

              ...Oh, and the "Gamma Gamma Hey" is Magma Magma Hay. Magma for hellfire, and hay... Because... Uhhh... His hair looks like hay?

              Aren't all black/blue/purple characters villains? Only 1 villain 5*, so I'm guessing b Maestro.
