      Apologies to Cthulu or any mods if this steps on toes; feel free to edit/remove if necessary.

      No problem, this is great, i was going to post one, but I'm good leaving it. No offense to the other post on her, but this helps a lot. I'll get better at this again now that the holidays and everything are over.

      I beat you by 32 minutes. But at least you have the match damage.

      Formatting takes a while haha. Probably should've refreshed to see if someone else had posted before I finished it but oh well.

      I made sure to get stats as complete as I could. Go ahead and edit yours since it's more likely to be kept. Oh and btw you missed that at 5 covers Photonic Barrage creates a Fortified CD.

      You can keep yours, since you have the accurate numbers. .

      Thanks to both of you for putting this one up. SkyGazing, is it possible to add a poll for best build still? I miss that all the new characters don't have those anymore...

      So, yellow passive works always, or only for CD tiles quickened by the active yellow?
      Description is not clear enought and if it works for all CDs, it would make insane OP combo with some chars (Loki etc.)

      Poll added, though in this case I think it's pretty safe to say 5/3/5 is the way to go 99% of the time.

      From my own testing her yellow works with all CDs, not just ones she uses the active power on. And yes it gets pretty silly with characters like Starlord and Loki.

      Ooh, combo with SL and resolve CD for 3AP... nice. She looks like a great support character, can't wait to try her out.

      Despite the jankiness, yes this works lol. As far as I can tell the expiration of any CD tile at any time works with her passive.

      So Sentry, Star-Lord, Carol. (you could bring Sentry green team up to get a higher health team, but then wouldn't get benefit of cheaper green from Star-Lord). Get 8 black AP, 10 green, throw your black out as early as possible, let the enemy use a move and then throw out your green. Be 5/5/3. I am not sure on the exact number of countdowns Sentry green creates, but I had 11 at 5 covers when I used him just now. Have 3 black strike tiles out by the time those countdowns resolve. Your strike tiles go from 660 total, to around 14,750 total, all for just 18 AP.

      Passive countdown abilities to synergize with carol's yellow passive, and also you can use yellow active to speed it up too.
      Carol is looking pretty strong.

      Carol, Winter soldier, Star lord
      USe Carol yellow to trigger WS blue or red power.
      SL yellow passive ability could makle this cascade faster.
      WS blue attack tile and Carol black strike tile are also boost by Carol yellow power (3 ap)

      I can't wait to try her with my 1/1/3 5* Green Goblin!

      Overall I am just excited to see how well her Green will work. Against a Juggs/Ares team, the strongest color will be red, so if I bring a strong red character such as Cyke, then I'll at least be happy to see the Team Damage when those bastards match the red I try to prevent them from getting!

      I cannot wait to see her Crash of the Titans too.. should be interesting.

      Not sure it's that cut and dry.

      Her black is (mostly, see below) a lock 5 covers. 1100 in strike tiles and/or 12k damage for 8ap is hilarious, even if it's CD based. (The 'or' coming from being able to do black->yellow and skip the strike creation).

      For the other colors, if your strongest color doesn't match the opponents, then you're talking only the difference between 3 and 4AP per enemy match on that color. This becomes like the 4Cyc yellow argument, where it's not worth 1AP sporadically to sacrifice the big difference in the other power; the difference between a 384dmg buff and a 1281 dmg buff is a very large one.

      Since Carol herself creates a countdown, it's less likely that you go into a match where the yellow passive has zero utility. It's also much easier to build your team construction to really maximize her yellow, as opposed to building teams to maximize the green. As someone mentioned, a Sentry TU w/ her yellow is the difference between a 6k buff and a 20k buff (if all tiles resolved). That's monstrous.

      I lean heavily 5/5/3, with maybe a 3/5/5 flex when you're in PvP with OML vs OML matches.

      5/5/3 with Star-Lord and anyone else (Dr. Strange...) vs goon nodes in PvE will be lol worthy.

      I always love someone who can buff tiles, and she might be one of the best when paired with cd tiles. 5/5/3 against goons for sure. Hard to make a ton of use of the green, maybe against switch if the enemy team has purple as the strongest. One too many conditions, I am never sure what the enemy will tank until I'm in the match. In the Kingpin essential his purple says it will steal blue (vision) but ends up taking yellow (Kamala), so that would be hard to plan for.

      Does it do both steal and deal damage when the strongest colors match? It doesn't say also in the description so I am not sure
