Hi Everyone - 
Kraven the Hunter has sets his sights on Marvel Puzzle Quest!  

We do want to share 2 things that were just updated. For the Think Like the Enemy power, this power has been changed to if there are 6 enemy Special tiles (4 at Power level 4), reduce all enemy tile strength and deal damage. Also, the Kraven & Friends Vault will be titled Kraven & Foes. That is all, thanks!

Check out 4-Star Kraven the Hunter - HERE!

    Kraven's last hunt is still one of my favorite Spider-Man storylines. Excellent.

    RIP Grocket. Depending on how much damage Kraven can reduce anyway.

    I also like the Mike Zeck inspired art. Very cool!

    I love the comic cover they chose and the art work! Enjoy the art work now because you won't see it in game with the animations off!

    I love the combo idea of pairing Kraven with Carnage. They finally gave us an awesome suggestion that isn't Star Lord or a character with an ability that does not exist (C&D creating purple). There are so many combos I want to use with that passive.. I may even pair him with Venom since he gives the enemy weak protects. Definitely a counter to the Grocket/GOTG teams, Medusa, Carol. I'm looking forward to seeing the numbers!

    I know it's inappropriate, but I really wish there was a power called "They said my mother was insane."

    "Kraven the Hunter (Sergie Kravinoff) is a 4-Star character that was designed to utilize what makes him a unique foe for not only Spider-Man but also Squirrel Girl!"

    I can understand why Squirrel Girl is affected but not Spider-Man. I believe that web tiles are neutral? I'm still new to this game, so is there any experienced player who can help me see the light?

    Since I'm still in 3* land, I think Patch Wolverine might be good to work with since he creates strike tiles for both teams and they make a rainbow team. 3* Elektra could work too but it seems that she's ranked really low by the players in here.

    You are correct about web tiles; they are neutral. 3* Spidey makes protects; that’s the best case I can make for Kraven vs spider people. Pairing him with Eddie Venom vs anyone could be interesting.

    Really wish you guys would change back to the old style vaults for new 4* releases. These "& Friends" vaults are pure garbage.

    Does anyone else think that villains in mpq seems to get a disproportionate amount of powers with a negative effect on the player's team when compared with heroes?

    Wish I could put more likes on this. I have been requesting him every survey I have done. And his skills seem interesting. I cannot wait to see the numbers on him.

    What's wrong with these vaults? You get a ton of tokens from multiple events that almost guarantee the new 4* cover.

    What's the point of building up good teams just for them to release counters to very specific teams. Kraven is a grocket hunter plain and simple.

    Thanks for reply. I thought it would be more than just the protect tiles. I should have noticed that it's referring to 3* Spiderman.

    Finally, a counter to G4mora/Rocket/Medusa that many experienced players like to see. Hopefully, it can help to take down Medusa much quicker. 

    For PvE, it looks like it will be quite a deadly combo against minions with Dr. Strange since both are passives. 3 special tiles? Take damage. Use active power? Take damage.
