*** Gambit (Modern) ***

I get it now. He's a battery. At first his red sounded a bit underwhelming. But now that I can use him, I see is red targets the charged tiles, earning AP. And you can basically fire it every other turn. Gets you AP like Medusa against Carnage. I'm starting to like him0

After seeing Gambit in action, I can say, that he not underwhelming like I first thought. Granted the charged tiles part in the 3* land si less useful than in 5* land, but his potential is huge. Nice addition overall it seems.0

But like other said already, Bl4de would be a good pair.
Other team that sounds good on paper (and moreso with the 5* version, but can also work with 3*) is Gambit, Carol & Coulson.
Also a Gambit without red covers would work very well with Mockingbird or St4r-Lord.0 -
I assume he gives Rogue as a champ reward. Is this true?0

My 2/2/3 Gambit with Blade and Carol made a mockery of CL9 in Honor Among Thieves. Obviously he fuels Bloodlust, plus purple can overwrite symbiotes' tiles and provide numerous Carol tile buffs for my strikes.
The Surfer node was a little tough - even with Blade cranking from turn 3, three goons with 90k+ health each took a WHILE to grind through. Still, with Surfer charging blue and red tiles, by firing Aces and Eights whenever I had enough red to not shut off Bloodlust, I got a kind of semi-winfinite going.
Big thumbs up from me and i will 100% be chasing the 5* version. With red actually doing decent damage on top of the AP generation and spammability, he'll be pretty beastly.1 -

He's OK. Spam-able skills yes, but that red is so weak (but with a few strike tiles it becomes deadly) and countdowners often get destroyed within the 3 rounds they last.
He also has soooo low health but I have to remember he's still my lowest level champ after all.
What's good is that when there are charged tiles red will always destroy these, gaining AP accordingly (3AP / destroyed charged tile).
I think it's a great power.1 -
Hi @D4Ni13
Thanks for starting this thread analyzing Gambit (Modern)'s abilities, however I feel like this might be more appropriate located in Character Discussion.
Would you mind if I moved this over there, so all of his character discussions can remain in a centralized location?0 -

It's a shame we don't have a Gambit (Modern) thread to do this in...0

So is a Gambit (5 black only)+Spider-Gwen going to be an actual headache? Or is it too slow to matter?

not impressed with the damage done to even a single target but AP boost at random colour.
Edited: mind u this is just a lvl 3 Red from the story mode
Purple is good to remove enemy tiles like some Strange's purple but does more damage than Daredevil or Bullseye at the cost of countdown waiting.0 -

@Brigby can you please move this to Characters Details ? Thanks in advance.

So I champed my 3-star Gambit last night. I actually spent 40 CP for his 12th and 13th covers as impatience got the better of me. I then proceeded to cut him loose in Honor Among Thieves. I tried him out at 3/5/5 at first, thinking I wanted to get the most out of his passive AP generation. I then flipped him to 5/5/3 to see how much it would slow him down.
I liked both builds. Anyone have any strong feelings for one vs. the other?
P.S. I had him partnered with C4rol and once she got her black off I just started spamming Gambit's powers and annihilated everything in front of me.0 -

Purple is a fine power, it does good damage at 5 covers. Top notch for a 3* dude.0 -
I thought him paired with ms marvel and dr strange in pve would be killer built 5/3/5.0

I'm not so sure that his red is so measly. With 5 in red at level 166 I'm doing 1500 damage per cast. For 5 AP and given that he generates his own AP that's a bargain, especially since you can cast it either every other turn, or every turn on a red match. That's pretty good damage output for a three-star.
Now, maybe that's not significant for those of us in 4-star land when we're staring down the barrel of a boosted rhulk with 36k health, but I'm convinced that Gambit is one of those characters with no bad build depending on the player's use/needs.1
