    Any character that causes a slight delay in the flow of the game to put down a special time kinda annoys me. Don't care for those little flows interrupts. So Daken for me.

    As a combo though mine would be OBW + M.Storm. Can I has a turn please? Also I hate looking at all those hail tiles.

    Classic Storm is one of the more annoying ones for me. She's easy to kill, but has a bad tendency to get off one or two tempests that cause damage to everyone. That usually means having to do two nodes of prologue healing.

    OBW and Hood are also on my list. Also squishy, but their stealing powers can disrupt all your perfect planning. I find OBW more annoying at lower levels when she only needs 5 purple AP to steal.

    The Hunt is creating a special place of hatred for 238 Venom/Ragnarok

    It looks like every single voter has voted for Daken. If you divide the votes by 5, there are fewer people than there are votes for Daken.

    I'm sure some people didn't cast all 5 votes, so there might be a few outliers... but not many. Everyone hates that guy. I can't believe they're making a three-star. My heart sinks.

    I only cast two myself, Draken and Bullseye.

    I really don't like going up against Drakkar Noir.

    I only voted for Daken, though lately Ragnarok feels like the king of **** cascades in PVE. I ran Rags as one of my cores for a very long time, and the fact that you get no pop-up indicator of AP gain like you get for the AI makes it really hard to feel like you get the same amount of **** cascading from him as the AI does.

    Of course, giant cascades hurt a lot more when they're supplemented by Daken attack tiles that are 3x as powerful as the ones you can produce yourself. So maybe that duo can share the title.

    Do any of you remember the pve event a couple months back where we had to fight a lvl 100+ IW? She gets my vote... all those locked and exploding tiles were awful. Only reason she is not in this poll is because we hardly ever see her.

    I had to go back and add a vote for Bullseye after the hunt - he's not much of a threat but he's a HUGE pain in the **** to get rid of with those epic protect tiles.

    Some of that may be clouded by my reliance on purple AP icon_lol.gif

    UGH.. I HATE these so much. Especially when he's with purple generating goons. I've stared at 5 web tiles unable to to jack all about them REALLY hoping he doesn't match that black to be able to devour my 5k hp characters...

    Then again, level 280 Venom can devour for 5k hp away so...

    I'm a bit surprised at Daken being voted so high. Any fight with Daken, I have always left him for last, since I have always found him the easiest to deal with. Either that, or he and bullseye get loki'd for the laughs.

    Is anyone not picking Daken as #1? He's annoying in PvP and even worse scaled up in PvE. At least Steve helps a lot in containing him for the Hunt or it would've sucked a lot more.

    OBW is annoying b/c it's a race to AR if you're playing your own (90% of the 2* bracket). It's such an uphill battle for whoever got hit with the first AR that I don't recall the other side winning in that situation with an evenly matched team.

    Jugg/Ares b/c of cheap nukes coupled with beau-coup HP. And they get scaled up a lot in PvE.

    I would've picked Venom as the last one b/c of bad memories coupled with 2 Purple goons but Mag is also annoying.

    An common similarity among annoying opponents for me seem to be cheaply costed abilities (including passives).

    Maybe im the only one here who thinks this but anything lvl 300+.

    but if you want me to be more specific: Ares,snipers or flamethrowers, since each of this will one shot just about any hero or team you have.
    If i recall correctly even a lvl 240 sniper can down a 141 in one hit.
    Seriously who the hell finds that any "fun"?!

    He's up there but not #1. PvE Daken is terrible but manageable in certain combinations (I'd almost always gladly replace a Muscle or Ares with a Daken of the same level), and PvP Daken is squishy.

    Oh hells yes. Heck, I even hate L100 Snipers with a burning passion.

    For those L240 Snipers who can one-shot the Hulk, I can't help but imagine what the canonical explanation would be:
    "Lieutenant, deploy our level-240 snipers to rebuff the Avengers."
    "But, sir, the Hulk is with them. What's a sniper rifle going to do?"
    "Son, you must be new here. Did you not hear me? These guys are level 240s. Their rifles use 747s for ammo."

    Does this mean, "least fun", or "most difficult"? It seems like people are answering both ways. Characters that are hard to fight against aren't always the most hated... to me, "least fun" are the ones who can fire off ability after ability with no chance to prevent it. Magneto and Punisher, I'm looking at you.... also anyone with tile conversion cascade madness.

    One of the worst things in the game to me is watching the Punisher fire off all three abilities in the same turn. (Also because the animation on that green is twice as long as it has to be! Really rubs it in...) Theoretically you never let him get to that point, but with so many OBWs running around, you can't always prevent it.

    Kind of stunned obw isnt higher, she's responsible for nearly every loss I've had in pvp since she was released. If she gets her recon off against me the fights basically over and damn near every second team uses her...

    True but she is pretty squishy. And Daken and/or Bullseye are far more annoying to deal with.
