    Unlikely, as they don't want the flak from all the people who already passed 4* rewards they would have preferred, and don't want to grandfather a bunch of free 4* covers to avoid the flak. So then...
    Which Legendary will Dr. Strange support? A supernatural character would fit best I think. Ghost Rider would be most likely, but Hood and Blade already provide the Rider. Luke Cage was a reoccurring member of The Defenders. I wonder if they'd use him, considering how new he is to the game. Then again, any other likely choice would be newish too. The only other supernatural Legendary I can think of is Moon Knight. So Luke Cage or Moon Knight from champion levels. What do you think?

    There's enough 3* Characters that need their 4* champ covers changed (just as simple examples, 3* Luke Cage and Punisher should give out their 4* equivalents) that I could see them using this opportunity to update those rewards. Would be nice to see Steve give out Peggy as well, since FalCap already has a feeder.

    They can always make him give Gwenpool covers.

    They have said Kaecilius is also coming to the game (though I don't know if they confirmed that he will be a playable character). If he is coming as a playable 4*, that would make sense, like Magneto (Classic) --> Prof. X.

    Not thrilled about there being a new 3*, I'm hoping he misspoke and mean 4* and 5*. It seems possible because he also said Devil Dinosaur was a lot stronger so clearly we can't take everything he said as fact. icon_lol.gif

    I take it from the lack of an actual article in wikipedia (just a paragraph among other Marvel characters) that Kaecilius is not particularly important. Likely will be a NPC enemy during the Dr. Strange PVE. Put in game because he's in the movie. They must be saving a bigger enemy for the sequel.

    From what was talked about at NYCC, it will be a 3* version and a 5* version.

    I'm expecting Mordo to have a heel turn in the movie or in the end credits, but Kaecilius is who Marvel is claiming is the movie's villain in their press.
