    Is 5Carnage useful for anything other than a cheap red AOE ?

    I'm likely blowing my recent stash in LL to complete 5ProfX and not looking forward to 5Carnage at all. Which is sad as like many of you, I like 4Carnage quite a bit and had hoped a 5* wouldn't be such a letdown. 

    Doesn't seem like he produces enough special tiles or strong enough tiles to bother. There are so many decent red abilities in the game already. His red which is decent for being cheap has the drawback of damaging your team as well, not sure why I'd bother using it. 

    I had thought he may have some good times with Hela, but he seems a bit slow and tiles he contributes won't buff until an enemy is downed. With his green destroying tiles, you could be destroying your own more powerful tiles from other characters to be replaced with Carnages weaker versions. 

    I feel like I'd only use him with Thanos in PVE to eat some damage and keep more valuable characters healthy.

    I see a few people liking him with Beta Ray Bill, who you'll likely also pick up if you pull now. There def seems to be some synergy there.

    I like him for the auto-match. Mine is only 1/0/2, but on the required nodes I run him with Okoye/Chavez and it really helps gather that AP and get those match-4s. Now that I have Profe$$or X I’ll probably swap him in for Chavez next time to see how that goes.

    Seriously you think they would have learned by now, Kitty, Red Hulk they get savaged and then they come out and everything changes.  :)

    Just wanted to chime in that Carbage is super fun to play. Just FYI - his red double-dips on the primary target if it does the AOE secondary hit, and that double dip will stack Wakanda Forever!. So I was doing 80k single target damage to the character in front and 30k to the wingpersons with him only leveled in the 300s

    Has there be a change to Carnage, he now dies under some condition I cannot figure out. He has full life one minute and then is dead the next without being hit by a power or effect it makes no sense and started happening a month or two ago. I see nothing in his power set so I was wondering if anybody else is seeing this happen and if so do you know what the condition is that cause him to kill himself because I think he is doing it to himself. Thanks in advance

    Any chance you have the Implanted Bomb support equipped on him? That could explain it.
