    Eh, it’s Jubilee on the icon, not a Dazzler load screen or something :)

    For those who may be unaware, when updating the game, the new icon for the game has Jubilee in the middle. Is she the next 4*? I have been personally wanting more 2* in the game. Would be a nice surprise to have her added as a 2* and maybe get one or two more characters as 2*, as well. Give that tier a little more depth and options. My first guess for her colors are Red/Purple/Yellow in some variety.
    No way Jubilee has a red power. Yellow/purple/blue seems far more likely to me. 
    Yeah yellow purple and blue seems more likely

    Jubilee makes fireworks. Dazzler is seemingly immortal, has near limitless potential for damage, and is one of the few X-Men to be able to be a superhero and actually get paying gigs. Plus, her son is his own grandfather. How the heck did jubilee make it first.

    (Who cares, it's another from X-Men'92! Whee!!!)

    Blue generally implies a tech angle. I expect yellow, purple, green. Unless they play up the character's rollerblading or later, more tech-oriented interpretations?
    I considered that, but given her powers a short stun seemed appropriate and stuns are most often blue. It’s not out of the question for her to have a green passive though. I think we can agree yellow/purple though.

    Jubilee manipulates matter at the sub-atomic level to create explosions. The little fireworks we see are when she pops a few atoms at a time. If she gets better control of her powers, she could literally be tossing nukes around instead of just fireworks.

    As someone who admittedly doesn’t care about Jubilee I’m curios if she ever advanced beyond mere fireworks in the comics?

    Found this on Wikipedia:

    While training in Generation X, Emma Frost described Jubilee as having the untapped ability to detonate matter at a subatomic level, which in theory is the equivalent of a nuclear fission bomb.  Her moral stance on taking a life was observed by Emma during the Phalanx Covenant, when Jubilee explained her fear of killing someone should her powers ever flare up again, as they did during the Acts of Vengeance storyline in Uncanny X-Men (she destroyed the Mandarin's mansion in a massive explosion, out of grief after believing that Wolverine had been killed). Emma stated that Jubilee had unlimited potential and was one of the most powerful mutants she had ever encountered. Jubilee's Age of Apocalypse alternate had minimal qualms in regards to using her powers, and made liberal use of her full ability.

    So sounds like only in the AoA timeline did she utilize the full extent of her powers. But she has gone beyond mere fireworks blowing up a mansion. Seems like being one of the most powerful mutants could give her 5* status.

    My only experience with Jubilee is the 90’s cartoon where she was insufferable. So I’m definitely not excited at a possible 5* but a 4* AoA version could be neat. At that point a red power starts to seem feasible.

    I don't know who is going to be the next character release but being so close to the Infinity War movie you can expect to see the "crew" of the Black Order,like Corvus Glaive or Midnight Proxima.

    Don't know if I want them as a playable characters, but sort of boss event with them I'm glad to see.

    It would be a fun boss event to have Thanos as the boss, and then have each side node feature one of the Black Order as a "mini-boss" (kinda like Kaecilius?), rather than specific required heroes.

    If Jubilee is indeed in the game, then all we need is Morph to field a full season 1 FOX X-Men cartoon team.
    Thanks, now I have the theme song earwormed into my noggin ;) ...
    Man, I loved that show growing up. Little known fact: Thunderbird, a hero, is shown on the villains side of the "clash" at the end of the opening credits. Why? At the time, there weren't enough villains in the show to fill out that side. Source: https://www.cbr.com/x-men-thunderbird-villain-cartoon/
    To add to that tidbit, next to Thunderbird was a non-character that the animation studio put in there to balance out the teams in the credits:

    Color me excited! Lowkey hoping she's 3* for purely selfish reasons. I don't want to wait for 4* land to cover her.

    The other question this raises is who she feeds for rewards.

    She’s always been linked to Wolverine in the 90’s cartoon (and he pretty much feeds himself), perhaps someone more knowledgeable about her recent exploits might have some insight of who she’s worked closely with?

    Obviously she feeds 4* Dazzler who feeds 5* Dazzler.  3* Jubilee, 4* Dazzler, & 5* Dazzler all released on Sunday.

    If this was a spoiler room I'd be glad to oblige but in recent comics she leads and works with Generation X-Men, New Warriors, and other various X-men teams. She also most recently gained her full abilities back thanks to Quentin Quire, but that is all I will elaborate on. She has an adopted son named Shogo, who she has met his future self as well. She also is one of few mutants that have an innate ability to block telepathic attacks.

    Next new release should be a fourstar. It goes fourstar, fourstar, fivestar, fourstar, fourstar, fivestar.

    Also, next new release shouldn't be until next weekend.

    So excited for this. I hope she's a 3 star so I can get her (or 4 star). Jubilee is one of my favorite characters--I even did a genderbend cosplay of her last year! :smiley:
