I am thinking of running 4* Deadpool, Xforce Wolverine and Quake. Do what if’s that are destroyed in the bottom row do damage?

Thanks for your help!

    If I remember correctly, 3* hulk is your best friend in this event.  3* hulk generating green + any storm + damage dealer was the way to go in past runs.  

    I'll probably by trying SW, 3*fist & XFW.

    Any destroyed Countdown for What tiles would deal damage. But, why did you ask specifically about the bottom row? Perhaps you were thinking about Ultron destroying the bottom row? Galactus doesn’t do that.
    It’s been too long. Thanks for the clarification. I have twenty four stars champed. I will find a good combo.

    I'm going with the classic 3* Hulk, Mostorm and CMags.. eventually switch out CMags for KK. The team never failed me against Galactus and it allows me to use my 4*s for PvP

    Any team with decent synergy should work fairly well vs. Galactus. He hasn't been especially hard since the very first run where you had to kill him within 3 turns or die.

    What are his powers again. I tend to forget this.

    Do you ever use 4* Cyclops instead of mags?

    Galactus creates Cosmic tiles that he destroys, both passively. These tiles get him AP (starting at 1AP; it increases to 3AP I think) in their respective colour. Once he reaches 28 or 30 Black AP (I forgot), he will one-shot your team with one million AoE damage.

    Ah heck I should have just gone to the link from the start http://marvelpuzzlequest.wikia.com/wiki/Galactus_(Devourer_of_Worlds)
    what fun would that be just linking it. but thanks a lot, i think i hated the event cuz at that point i didnt really stand much of a chance. now i look forward to it a bit.

    Don't forget to ask for Ghost Rider TUs

    Sorry to borrow this thread. In how many hours time does the boss event begin? 6 hours?

    Does Galactus do AOE or just insta-win. Because if AOE nightcrawler will just jump away while presumably the whole world is eaten. Not sure where he'll land but he will still be alive :smiley:

    I Think people have tried to avoid the auto-win attack by going Airborne Before (Fastball Special), and it worked in the early runs but then it changed to it didn't work any more.

    I believe it is aoe but something like 999 999 damage.  Would be interesting to see if nightcrawlers passive works

    Does anyone know if Galactus' auto-death move will hit an airborne Vulture?


    EDIT: Oh, I see people are talking about the possibilities of being airborne already. So I'll just follow along and see if anyone has any answers.

    In the past he did not hit airborne target ,I used to bring a colossus team up for that very purpose

    5* gambit again proves to be the easy button for bosses that are special tile dependent.

    Actually no.. I never thought about it because I've always used this team. The point of CMags is the board shake with red and lesser extent blue for cascades.. I switched to KK a year ago to keep green on the board

    What are effective teams against Galactus?

    4* Rocket, Medusa and 3* Iron Fist are fast.
