I'll try out Peggy, Punisher, Nova, and Quake this season, I think, although my Peggy is probably too low-level to be at all useful on defense. I think Nova will be interesting. I especially can't wait to try him out in PvE next week, along with Phoenix and Scarlet Witch. Should be quite the juggling act.

Vhailorx wrote: Polares, I would think 5/3/5 if is the way to go. His role isnt so much "black battery" as "free attack tile to double dip on oml and Phoenix strikes." Squishy as hell though. All in all, I think peggy, ice, quake, and pun max are probably the best availavle options. Kate bishop is also decent, but conflicts with both Phoenix and oml. Amusingfoo1: is pun max realm top 3 material without any ap shenanigans? Just about all other top tier 4*s have some ap trick (ice, imhb, jg, rulk, cyc, even peggy's passive that suppresses the enemy). Pun max does strong damage, but can accellerate himself at all. Can he really be so good without any equivalent ability? Seems to me that he is more in the 1A tier with nova and quake (maybe near the top of that group for pure damage though)

I'm only playing him with 5*s, and don't have any trouble getting enough green and black to fire his nuclear winter by the time I take out the first enemy. And the damage is just crazy: I almost always use his black over OML's.

And the damage is just crazy: I almost always use his black over OML's. I can see that. OML and PH are the perfect pair to fuel pun's black. that thing is uncapped damage and both PH and OML will make it stronger. Hell, just using PH's red once (with OML's passive strikes) will add 4k+ extra damage (almost 6 if you use Army of One, and that's BEFORE adding the damage from the strikes themselves).

Ant Man has like 30k health when boosted, I'm sure I could come across 9 blue in that time.
