    Agreed that duels are fought with swords.
    Shatterstar dual wields dual bladed swords.
    Nuff said.
    I don't think Aaron Burr dueled with a sword......

    The game is called Marvel puzzle quest and not Marvel super hero puzzle quest

    The force has a huge influence

    If you’re going there, Duel of the Fates is arguably the single best thing to come out of The Phantom Menace besides....Darth Maul confirmed.

    If it was Dual Influance, I would guess Silver Surfer..Since it is Duel Influance, I'm guessing LEGION..New season just dropped on Hulu.

    Do they normally mention the Latest Legendary store changing in these patch notes? I forget.

    If they do...does that mean God Emperor Doom isn't entering on Monday, or did @Brigby forget?

      Legion is actually a FXX series but it does look like the first two season are on Hulu.  I'm not sure if the season 3 premiere date has been announced as of yet.

    No to the first question.....

    Expect Kitty to move to Classics early Monday.

    Black Panther did come up multiple times when I googled the clue and added the word "Marvel" so this may well be right.

    ...which would be very interesting, as the only BP tie-in I can think of right now is the awards season for film.

    Releasing a character based upon an Oscar nominated film probably isn't the worst advertising ever...

    How about Magik?  I think this works on all levels, duel for her soulsword, dual influences of both mutant ability and sorcery.

    We’d have the last of the Phoenix 5 (albeit Colossus is only a 3*) but we could finally do an Avengers vs. X-Men alliance event! (Which would be pretty cool to see MPQ adopt).

    It would be nice to get her in game. New Mutants won’t be out for a while though. Anything big on the comics front that would support her in game?

    They don't really do tie-ins to Fox Marvel movies, so that's kinda irrelevant. They probably aren't going to release a character when the movie comes out, and they aren't likely to delay someone they have planned in order to tie in to the movie (kinda like how Cable and Domino came out just after Anniversary and not anywhere near Deadpool 2's release).

    She did star/lead in a New Mutants comic last year, but I don't think there's anything new for her coming out. I would consider the comics to be better evidence for her inclusion than the upcoming film, but there isn't exactly a lot of evidence there in the first place, so who knows? Could just be next in the long line of "mutants not yet in MPQ". Starting with Gambit/Rogue/Nightcrawler in 2017 after a long absence of new X-Men characters, then we've picked up Archangel, Cable, Bishop, Domino, Kitty, Jubilee, Emma Frost, and Dazzler, got to get to people like Magik and Havok (or Forge or Banshee or villains like Sabertooth and Mr Sinister and so on) at some point, right?

    My guess is Ronan — he was in a duel (dance off) with Starlord in GotG and will be returning to the MCU in Captain Marvel, so he’s an influence in two (dual) movies.

    The Rawhide Kid could be fun.

    It's got to be Bodega Bandit. He is Spider-Gwen's arch nemesis which covers the "duel" bit.  He's also presumably an alternate version of someone from the prime continuity if you read it as "dual".  And he is immune from the consequences of his actions due to the "influence" of his family.
