Colognoisseur said: I would also point out that “one-trick” Onslaught is the killer of your Real No. 1. Use him with Prof X or Apocalypse and all those Bishop teams go down easy peasy. I’ve spent the last day of Sim using all three to drive a bulldozer through the Bishop wall. Onslaught changed things enough I no longer care if they nerf him because through design he is almost irrelevant. So if Hawkeye is No. 8 Onslaught should be right there. IMO over Hawkeye.

helix72 said: Great work as always @Daredevil217 ! But I do have a couple disagreements:1) I would put Apocalypse above iHulk. In PvP, I don't run from iHulk fights, I just bring BRBitty and boost blue and red. The board gets flooded with Protect tiles and Attack tiles in no time, which Kitty keeps boosting. Sometimes it's fun to just keep iHulk in front, deny Red and Yellow, and let him keep generating Protects for me and Blue and Green AP while every time he goes down he damages Okoye and because she's in the back, her TU slowly drains away...And while iHulk + Okoye + Valkyrie is a great team on PvE to save on healthpacks, if it's against tile movers and anyone on the enemy team chases Green, I've had multiple turns where there wasn't enough Green on the board to fire his passive. And if you do have anyone making special tiles, remember only basic tiles count towards the Green tile trigger. So pairing him with Apoc and firing Yellow or BRB and firing Blue can sometimes get in the way of iHulk's passive firing.On the other hand, Apoc's powers are so cheap, and supports that give you Yellow on start of battle are so numerous (Korg, Vintage Shield, Avengers Tower, Sanctum Sanctorum, SP//DR), running 1/2 Thor + Apoc + BRB has become my go to for SCL10 PvE. And if I'm against anyone with a stun, you can bet I'm bringing Apoc to the fight and I laugh while the AI wastes their AP on stuns that don't work (I'm looking at you, 1* Venom). Meanwhile, my iHulk collects dust on the PvE shelf.And let's not forget that while Apoc's HP pool is enormous (I often get all my opening clears without a single healthpack), iHulk takes damage every time he makes a match and usually sucks down several.If you asked whether I'd part with Apoc or iHulk first, I would lay my iHulk at your feet in a heartbeat. I should point out, I have a baby champ Okoye, so maybe a 550 Okoye makes it more worth it. But shouldn't that credit go to Okoye not iHulk?2) Captain Marvel: While she is a one-trick pony, that one trick is an important and powerful trick. Where HE + Worthy used to get me through SCL10 challenge nodes, now it's BRB, Polaris, and Captain Marvel. The new winfinite has given me something I had not gotten before: a reliable 5 clears of every challenge node, fast enough to have high PvE placement, and with the right support on BRB (Carol's Communicator), usually with BRB at full health by the end of each clear. I know it seems a aggressive, as there is only one team I run her with, and I would NEVER use her in PvP (I did in Simulator but the retals were brutal), the challenge node is so important and she is so key for me beating it I'd put her in the top 10.Now, maybe one challenge is there are others who can do what she does with BRB and Polaris: 4* Thanos for example. But he's 1) much slower than CapM, 2) has fewer HP than CapM, and 3) doesn't have a power like CapM's Red that can help put more special tiles on the board.As crazy as it sounds, if I had to choose between her and iHulk, I'd also lay down iHulk in a heartbeat.For me, the must haves, the characters I use all the time (none higher than 459) are:PvEThorApocalypseBRBKittyCaptain Marvel (CN only)PvPKittyBRBApocalypseI'm pretty sure if I had more levels on my Okoye, she'd make it back on the list for PvE.
