The entire game is built around selecting characters in an elaborate rock-paper-scissors dance, characters being direct counters to one another is a statistical inevitability.
Further, releasing Kraven isn't going to siphon away the usefulness of other characters, nor is it going to make matches so heavily one-sided as to be futile. You'll still be able to take Rocket & Groot and Gamora into a fight against Kraven and win.
Why don't you take your grumpy hat off and join us in celebrating that another awesome Marvel character is in the game?15 -

Because instead of nerfing characters, sometimes they give us counters, like when 4* JG was released shortly after PX. I don't recall you complaining that Archangel counters Vulture. Alot of players utilize Grocket in PvP, so they gave us Kraven to fight back instead of nerfing Grocket to 3* Gambit levels. There's nothing wrong with this approach.14 -

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.
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.0 -

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!0 -

His stats are posted. He looks very underwhelming. I was excited for him and now I'm completely disappointed. Maybe he'll surprise me like Chavez and Nico0 -

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?
I was actually kind of hoping he would have a really interesting matchup with Squirrel Girl and she'd end up being his Crash opponent.

Saying "Kraven has powers that work against Spidey and Squirrel Girl, just like how he uses his abilities against them in the comics!" is a better advertising line to potential new players than "Kraven counters the R&G/Gamora meta."4 -
The event should have been called That's So Kraven.15

Maybe this will be worked into the power set of 5* Squirrel Girl.

I think it's kind of weird the article suggests 355. Black seems to be his best ability by far. The passive reduction seems fine on purple, but the damage is similar to Lockjaw's green which is a bit underwhelming even while boosted. Blue when compared to X23's purple seems like absolute garbage. Even with her cost reduction we know how hard it is to spam her purple. His tile conversion seems like it would only be good if his traps are spammed, except you cant with a whopping 10ap cost for 1 trap.0

Really hate that he has to destroy your AP too, but the final damage numbers will be the deciding factor on if I feel the tradeoff will be worth it to run him at anything but 3/5/5. He's an awesome counter though as people pointed out, so excited to be able to give him a spin. Someone said a while back that they simply nerf characters rather than introducing new characters that can specifically counter what makes them OP, so I hope this trend continues.0

Do we know the two classic 4s needed for his Shield Training. Hoping it’s ones I have Champed already. The Iso crunch is real!0

While I'm still a heavy/daily player, I'm not on these boards as much as I used to be -- but I just had to pop on and give props to the devs for an exciting character-release which checks-off every box for me:- classic character- fantastic in-game art- a classic comic cover taken from his definitive story arc- a not-too-common color combination (THANK YOU!!!)- abilities (and descriptions thereof) which reflect the character's personality and powerset quite well- abilities designed to counter the #1 thing boring me about the game right now (Being the over-saturation of GRocket/Gamora/Medusa teams in PVP)Thanks, all! Really looking forward to rostering him.4
