good partner for Patch/Loki?

Unknown
edited April 2014 in MPQ Tips and Guides
My roster is really starting to come together and I'm starting to look to what makes good B-team. I like the Patch/Loki combo quite a bit and I've got the covers for both of them already, but I'm unsure who should be the third.

I had been thinking about IM40. He has an active yellow, an active blue, lots of HP, and while he's stunned from his yellow, that makes even more tiles with wolverine icons.

I could also use Doom to make it easier to reach Loki's black and just forgo the active yellow...

Anyone have any suggestions that might be better?

    IM40 doesn't really have an active blue since you'll never get it off in most matches. His yellow has really good synergy with Patch though, so he's a consideration. I think C. Mags would be better though: spammable active blue/reds means that your strike tiles deal an insane amount of damage.

    It's kind of funny how classic mags ends up being the answer to so many of these types of questions, isn't it? icon_e_wink.gif

    Yup, he was the original one man army. His active purple alone would probably get him a spot in most teams: let alone the OP blue/red abilities.

    Until he gets nerfed, if you have the covers, you would be crazy not to use Cmags with Patch.
