The current Crash of the Titans is driving me mad.

    The last crash (Flaptain) featured a character that is more useless in a solo fight, vs. a character that is AWESOME solo (3-star Cap Marvel) because if she can tank she has access to nearly unlimited AP. That was frustrating.

    Peggy's blue is not as effective when solo, but she's pretty far from useless.

    Only real offense is Red. Yellow is nice, but Wasp has cheap powers as it is, and Blue stun is negated and only gets one countdown tile instead of three.  Even with a 4 red stockpile, I just can't get enough red before Wasp gets the cheaper black & yellow.

    Her red is ok and her yellow still works.  Just do not expect her to work as good when she outside her strong point.

    Try to get 18 red. Not 9. Fire blue only if there's not a lot on the field.

    The other problem is the current bug with countdown tiles doing damage. If Wasp gets a strike tile out and has enough blue, That Buzzing Sound becomes the Death of a Thousand Cuts.

    It took me two tries with a champed Peggy.

    My Peggy is at 5/1/4 and I found it to be a walkthrough. It's one of those that hinges purely on how much of one colour you get on the board.

    Also: Deny blue at all costs.

    The blue is still useful. Granted it doesn't Stun, but the one tile can still do over 5k dmg if she's maxed

    Not as good as you would hope... Legendary Presence (LP) doesn't seem to work on any secondary power ap requirements.  
    Wasp's That Buzzing Sounds is passive but requires 10/9 blues to trigger... not impacted by LP.
    Wasp's Wasp Sting requires 8/7 blues to add the stun to the power, also not impacted by LP.

    Ok, but that doesn't have anything to do with it being a solo match, that has to do specifically with the match-up vs Wasp. And it does still raise the cost of Tactical Intuition and Wasp Sting by 2, 3, or 4, exactly as advertised.

    (Also your info there is out of date; That Buzzing Sound has a Blue AP threshold of 7/6 and Wasp Sting requires 8 Blue AP to stun at any rank)
