Crit damage mod and environmental damage

Unknown

So I was looking at the 3*s, and only GSBW and The Punisher has a 4.0 crit mod and 4 environmental damage. This is the highest combination of environmental damage in the game. The Hood and Modern Hawkeye has 4.5X and 3, but if you match 3, a 4/4 would get 12 * 4 = 48, while 3/4.5 gets you 13.5 * 3 = 40.5.

Now, you can see that generally speaking characters with less HPs have 4.5X mod. The Hood, Modern Hawkeye, and Bullseye are the only characters with 4.5X mod and they're all on the especially low HP classification. Even GSBW has lower than normal HPs. Wolverine has 4.0X mod in all his versions, though his environmental damage is only 3.

This brings me to a question, why is The Punisher so special? He has both the 4X mod and the 4 environmental damage. Did he just won the lottery when all the MPQ characters are drafting for character stats? I really doubt he lost anything for being one of the two characters with the coveted 4/4. Does Wolverine always have a 4X mod because his claws are sharper than other weapons? Yes, these are minor things, but having a high crit mod actually matters a lot when you're in desert or forest, and even if not, more damage is still more damage. A crit match 3 from Wolverine does 800 damage, versus 600 for someone with only a 3X mod.

Punisher is a one man Army, I did not start out a Punisher fanboy, but I am starting to feel like one, he is just so all around good that it's sick.

I didn't really think about this. I guess thats why my Punisher + C. Mags team generates so much more env AP than a team with just C. Mags (which matters a lot on the desert/jungle).

Magneto is 3.3X for both version and 3 environmental damage for both. Didn't see anything unusual or noteworthy about them.

Yeah, it's something I noticed after using Magneto, but even without him, it's not unusual to generate a couple crit tiles throughout a match and only The Punisher and GSBW can pretty much immediately flip that into a Thorned Rose or 2 Oasis if you got an environmental match nearby since they get at least 48 environmental AP for a crit environmental match.

It's 3.2
Psylocke has 3.8

Magneto must have matched 3 numbers and Psylocke 4 in the MPQ character stat lottery.
