I disagree. I would rather get NEW characters like the Black Order than recycled characters with a new look being released as "NEW". If making characters we want into supports is the devs way to do what they want and give us rehashed characters than it's just pure laziness and unimaginative. They are going to use Supports as an excuse now to release characters. Supports are so limited in the way we obtain them or rank them up that it will take so long for us to enjoy these new character supports. I would rather have a new character that I can use in every aspect of the game than some support I can use minimally in PVE.

Beardy (Hobo) Cap America (Infinity War) now mentioned on Marvel.com - screenshots confirm he's a 5* (thanks @scottee)

I would rather have a new character that I can use in every aspect of the game than some support I can use minimally in PVE. Maybe I should rephrase.I'm down for new characters, but there are dozens and dozens I would want before the Black Order.It's not about new characters vs variants. It's about the fact that I don't think the Black Order are interesting enough to take up that many new character releases. If we're going to spend two months releasing villains, give us Red Skull, Mysterio, Sabertooth, and Taskmaster, instead of four Thanos lieutenants.I'd rather have the Black Order as enemy-only characters like Gorgon so we could have them for story events, but if the choice is full character release or Support, I'd rather roll them out together as Supports and move on to other characters.

Ha! Shows how much I pay attention... almost as much as Marvel.com editors.... from the first line of the article posted on a Wednesday afternoon:
"True Believers, every Tuesday, make your way over to Marvel.com for a rundown of all this week’s Marvel Games news, from console game releases to character drops to mobile event updates, and more! "

The screenshots confirm he's a 5*.Edit: Interesting powers. 6 purple to destroy 4 enemy AP, and a countdown to stop their powers in that color. And 15 yellow to revive a fallen character. That sounds amazing for 5* Thor or Daredevil!

Really? Which one of you put "We need another Black Widow!" on your survey? Super disappointed about yet another Widow, Cap and Spidey in the game. Will Widow be the first to have a 1*-5* variant?Also don't care about Okoye. It seems like the devs went "Wow, everyone liked the Black Panther movie! Add in ALL OF THE CHARACTERS!" But since it takes them so long to do anything, Okoye comes a month too late.

You've been playing for what, 4 years?If you're not swimming in HP at this point, you only have yourself to blame, really. competitive pvp plus hoarding iso, lt, cp makes the hp struggle real.the earlier point about there being no indication that these releases are anything other than a preview of our normal 2 wk release schedule is right though.
