    Has anyone tested to see if her red enemy AP increase stacks on Peggy's yellow passive? Or her red friendly decrease stack with SL's yellow passive? I'm assuming it doesn't stack

    Just tested it, it stacks with Peggy's & Starlord's passive :smiley:


    Her red power also fortifies countdown & repeater tiles which is nice.

    Wow it really stacks?! So you're saying you could have 1ap cost abilities with SL and Shuri?

    No I think it says a minimum of 3 ap on both of their powers, I would assume even with the stacks it would cap at 3.  If that is not the case I have a feeling a nurf might be coming that would be crazy.  Pair those two with Agent venom a 1 ap attack for 5k, a few others would be crazy as well OML's yellow after he pops his claws are another that would be instantly broken.  Please let if know if those two (4Star Lord and Shuri) can actually get cost under 3.

    It stacks but the lowest an ability can cost is 3 AP (as stated in the blue ability's description).

    Tested that too, an ability wont cost under 3 AP.

    Voting 3/5/5. It's impossible to keep 5 fortified tiles on the board, and I have enough trouble even regularly getting enough red to use it to make tiles. She needs to be paired with someone like 5HE or 4Cage to get use out of her passive before even considering another build.

    On the plus side, her green hits like a mack truck, well worth putting 5 into.

    I played around a bit with her in PVE and her red putting 6 on the board made it pretty easy. Just fire red first then all other powers are 3 less.

    I have both her and Panther champed and am trying to think of strong teams for both. So any suggestions are appreciated!

    The ability to reduce the cost of black powers (among all other colors) is pretty crazy. 
    Getting Gamora's black down to a cost of 6 and her blue stun to 3 AP? Amazing.

    Also looking forward on the 5* front. Gladiator Thor in god mode, making his yellow cost 6 initially, then 9 for the insane Raging fire damage after getting some of those protect tiles out.
    Too bad she will not work with Gambit well due to not being able to play her red at all. 

    Also, Th5nos, Carol, Shuri. Play red once you have 9 green, 3 yellow. Fire off Come & Get Me, then Carol's yellow to instantly resolve the CD to down the entire enemy team (ensure they are all low enough). No Court Death damage.

    Ive been playing with Shuri a lot in PVE where she’s boosted and I have not had a problem FLOODING the board with fortifieds once she gets rolling. Might have to screenshot at some point but once you cast red once, additional casts are only 6. 

    I played her with Rogue who siphoned red and it was hilarious because one red match gave 6 AP which was enough for more fortified tiled. Gets pretty crazy. I haven’t tried any build outside 5/3/5. I agree her green has a nice punch at 5, but it’s hard giving up 5 in red/blue. 

    I feel ME Hulk is a great partner. Provides actives in Yellow/Purple, Yellow pops out the necessary 5 fortified tiles and Shuri can lower the cost of his expensive powers. Just need a good third to cover black/blue and maybe green if you keep shuris at 3. Vulture is the obvious best candidate for those colors, but Fist, Punisher, Kate, Mordo and Gamora all work too.

    I suggest Mr.F. He makes fortified tiles. How many PhDs do that team have?

    I think Shuri, Luke Cage, and Mr F can be quite a good combo too.
    I don’t have him champed yet. Just tried Iron Fist and he’s a brutal third. I don’t think there’s a better third in fact. I was throwing down 3 AP strikes which of course would get fortified and add to the insanity on the board. Iron Fist is already a fast character but when you’ve got -3 to all his costs (which self-fuel on top of it) it’s insane. He killed everyone before Hulk got close to powerbombing.

    3 AP Blue
    5 AP Green (he gets 3 or 4 from casting Blue)
    9 AP Black (he gets 3 or 4 from casting Green)

    Was able to champ Shuri and have been able to try her out a bit in SHIELD Simulator. Very impressive. Have to agree that red needs to be 5 since it fuels both her other Powers. After that it's a question of whether you need her to deal damage with green or if the additional AP cost manipulation is a better investment.

    Been using her with Hawkeye and Coulson and it's hilarious. It's a bit of a race at first - fire off Arrows as soon as you can to get countdowns on the board, but once you are able to fire Shuri's red it's pretty much game over since it drops Hawkeye's Arrows to 3 blue AP. 5 green for Shuri helps quite a bit in that team.

    Yeah. This character is a MUST USE with fortified characters. I just champed her today and with MrF, they’re insane. Casting VV makes Reeds Flexibility cost 4AP. A 3 turn stun that puts fortified shields on the field anywhere you want for 4 AP? And you’re gonna probably match the 2 fortified tiles on casting so that’s over 3500 damage with VV and if you have Imaginaut on the field and it’s a red/yellow/green match, then tack on another 1000 per match. 

    Ive been using them with MEH but I’m gonna try 4Cage for a little bit and see how that goes. The power of Cage’s uncapped H4H power with this team sounds too good not to try.

    She was also made for Avengers Tower, I just wish I could finish getter her covers she is a really solid 4.  Her, Cage and Iron Fist or 4BP will be killer.

    I was using her with Fist/MEH forever but just champed Mr. F a few days ago and wow!  Thanks for my new favorite team!  Between Crnage/Medusa and Shuri, Mr. F has moved beyond garbage tier for me. I think any third would work fine for them but they are made for eachother. Like you, I use Hulk for the third for the rainbow, plus his yellow can get stuff going on a red starved board. Mr. F’s cheap blue and black make so many cheap fortifieds that it gives you 4 colors to flood the board with them. It’s very easy to go winfinite/stunlock once the team is rolling.

    I tried IM40 instead of MEH Hulk and one recharge gives you a pretty easy winfinite if you use your blue correctly. It’s kind of slower as you are relying mostly on VV damage to kill off the opponent. Also any Reed team will suck on defense. But this may be the most healthpack savingest team in the tier between the winfinite poential and strong protects (barring you can avoid rocket teams... yeah right).
