Has a Moonknight Crash happened before? Been looking trying to find the opponent and what some of the lower clears have been. Wanting to see if my 4/1/3 Will be able to do it.

    No, this is the first time. As long as green can deal decent damage you should be fine.

    Moon Knight might be too recent, I don't know if he's gonna be in this rotation. War Machine was skipped, and he was released before Moonie.

    It's confirmed in the sneak peek thread that he's next.

    He has been confirmed. War Machine was the exception, not the norm. Brigby said a character needed to be awarded twice in PvE Before being eligble for the Crash to give people a chance to collect their covers. Apparently War Machine has only been awarded once, though he has been Essential at least twice - he was essential in ISO-8 Brotherhood in September, but the event Before that (Civil War run 3) awarded Winter Soldier and Cyclops covers.

    Ok thanks. Guess we'll just have to wait and see who it is.

    Along these lines, even without knowing who will be the opponent, would 3 black make sense? Part of the power is the kill bonus, but if you kill the other guy, it's over. I recognize that purple is very random, but seeing as one smack with (non-random here) green should do it, it might be preferable to get the full benefit from two powers rather than one.

    I don't think so. At level 275, MK's black does just under 7k damage, not even factoring in the healing, for only 9AP. You'll definitely want him at 5/3/5.

    I have a sense we are going to go up against somebody huge with massive healing abilities. Maybe Surfer?

    A 5* like Surfer wouldn't make much sense because at level 270, most 5*s are pushovers. They get their power from levels, not covers.

    My Moon Knight is champed, and I can't see changing him from 5/3/5 for a 1-on-1 fight. Should be pretty easy.
