    Kingpin finally has a good partner; 5* Carnage. Try it out if possible.
    I've enjoyed that duo in PvP, and have added fun 3rd's in SIM as well. 
    To agree with Tiger above, 5* Carol is great, even with the color overlap. 
    If you don't have her, but have a Champed 4* Venom, he is very fun to run with Carna5e & Kin5pin. Every single match, even the free turn, should produce an enemy protect tile from Venom, and his passive makes them worth just a value of 1. Thus you will almost always have the free turn for the duration of the match. His yellow hits hard for a 4* when there are lots of enemy protect tiles out.
    Kingpin's green is very underrated by the player base, I've mentioned that a few times in this thread, but he still gets no respect lol.

    I just champed my Fi5k, so I'm on the hunt for teams.

    Some things that seem desirable in a partner: a blue or green battery, a damage accelerator, someone who plays AP games on the opponent, a generator of trivial friendly SAP tiles

    Blue/Green batteries: top tier is BRB, but his active blue and green are superior to Fi5k, so what's the point?

    Danver5 - I don't have a good one, so it's hard to evaluate. posts above indicate she's better than she seems.

    Gladiator Thor: He's a good green battery, but champ to champ why you'd not just use Thor's green i'm not sure. and if you're running Thor, you're likely running Okoye, so I guess he's a fine meat shield to tank for thor here.

    Carbage: He's pretty solid with Fi5k, and the second turn you get from the tile spam is a decent AP accelerant. You'll always have something to allow you to use Kingpin's blue, and his green is generally better than Carbage's.

    Damage Accelerator - Okoye seems obvious, but I bet Apocalypse will be strong here on all fronts. Kitty seems dangerous, since you'll be donating any friendly specials you have around

    I'm also curious about Yelena and her AP games.

    I tried Sinister for AP pool management, but I just wanted to use his blue instead. I don't have so many 5* champs that he is just another drop in the bucket for me, but so far he doesn't seem like the pointiest tool even in my limited arsenal.

    5* Carnage and Fisk are a good pairing. But , unfortunately, BRB is better. Shame.
