5/3/5Man I wish she was a 3/50

5/5/3Switch to 5/3/5 if you’re actually facing a trap user, but otherwise, no additional AP gain and minor damage change by going from 3 to 5 on her blue.0
-
3/5/5Let's be honest, you'll never use her red. Not in a meta where Gambit exists. 3 to 5 blue is ~1500 difference in damage per trap at 450... But she creates them automatically, meaning you'll get a lot of chances to match them. Also lowering trap preview threshold to 2 blue matches makes a difference.0

In PvP... Sure, she doesn't replace Gambit so there's Little Point in 5 red. But red makes her black hit a lot harder (how many other fivestars can creat friendly special tiles in different colors? Daredevil can do it if there is special tiles to steal, other than that I am drawing a blank.) So the question is if she is good enough to use without her red?I am leaning towards running her 5/5/3 and mostly playing her in PvE, possibly flanked by Thor and/or Daredevil.
She would probably work very well for fivestar transitioners though - there are a lot of interesting potential partners at the fourstar level!

If it Counts (should, but you know what they say about assuming...) then yeah, 3/5/5 is probably a good way to go. Jessica is certainly a better way to fill out the black/blue gap Gamthor leaves than Archangel.0 -
3/5/5I´ve two questions concerning her @Brigby
1.) Are Gambit´s CD tiles also counted as friendly special tiles?
2.) In the power description of her blue ability it says "When you match one, gain AP in your strongest color and deal damage." Does that also apply if the enemy matches the trap tile?0 -

3/5/5Gabolticca.
After 4 turns, you have 5k damage a turn from Black Bolt, 10k from Jessica (may take more turns to have enough traps out), plus every other turn have Gambit red and purple going off, with BB green and Jessica black skills for additional damage.

"Defenestrate" is my favorite word in the English Language.0

Can confirm that she is awesome, and she pairs wonderfully with Gambit.
She needs blue to see the trap tiles, including the ones she places. They flash real quick at the start of the turn; they aren't displayed like when you make your own trap tiles. But the good part is that she doesn't need to be the one making the match, it happens a lot even if you do NOT know where they are, and 10K is AMAZING passive damage for making a match. The 3AP gain makes it downright nasty.
I have NOT tested her against other trap tile creators, mostly because I cannot find any in PvP against which to test. That doesn't really happen in the 5* tier (and does it in the 4* tier anymore??) But the good news is that you don't really need the opponent to make trap tiles; she does it passively and often.
Her red is good on its own, if you don't have Gambit. But if not, then what are you doing?? Go get Gambit.
Because, her black DOES factor in Gambit's CD as special tiles. And at 11, it is just cheap enough to be affordable for the massive damage it can do.
She would be a super annoying 5* to face though being able to match away the trap tiles helps somewhat. She is a much better third for Gambit/Thor SS teams than the common Daredevil, though still not as speedy as America Chavez.
But the best part is she encourages you to think and be involved. Want to activate the trap tiles for that last 10K health? You better have been paying attention when they flashed at the start of the turn.
I'm really enjoying the playtesting so far.8 -

Certainly looks promising, thanks for the analysis!Maybe try her out in Dr Doom's Lightning round some time? That seems like a good place to test her trap spotting ability.

I am curious about how she pairs with 5* Thor, particularly with his ability to generate cascades. The blue description states that the trap has to be matched but how does that work out if a trap is matched during a cascade generated by his God of Thunder passive?0

I lucked into Jessica's blue cover yesterday (the day she was released) and she's totally usable with just that one cover. I partnered her with Hulkbuster against Ultron because I knew I'd be chasing red, blue, and black (HB's colors and her trap colors). She did 6k worth of damage off that passive during what was a quick match, plus it generated 2 red AP every time feeding HB's nuke punch.1

Can I confirm with guys who have tested her that damage is taken by the enemies if they match her trap tiles too?0

Be warned a bit though, if her traps happen to be on red, yellow, or green tiles, God-mode Thor does Not attempt to avoid randomly destroying them, because they aren't Your traps after all.
Edit: mistakenly listed the possibility of yellow or green traps, but red traps can be an issue0
