    It would be a great char for kitty users, or for protecting tiles against new minions.
    Or using with rescue for total healing.
    Maybe they could endure Ihulk. 
    Anyway her color powers are too populated for my liking.

    Just had a quick google to see which female characters are listed as team iron man in the comic civil war. The only really notable names that I know of that don’t have a 4* version (or any version) are She-Hulk, Tigra and Songbird. There were others too, but none that I’ve heard of before.

    Do any of those fit the bill? I don’t really know much about tigra and songbird

    Not really for the clue. Tigra was granted feline abilities through a mystic ritual, and Songbird has vocal-based powers that have different effects depending on the pitch. Songbird would make a lot of sense for a Thunderbolts affiliation, but the game doesn't really have the main characters or that affiliation.

    As for Misty Knight (who has been mentioned a few times between here and the Update thread), she and Colleen were working for Iron Man's side in Civil War and she has a prosthetic arm.

    Agreed, she makes the most sense

    It also said in one of the clues "hire this hero soon" or something like that.  Misty is one of the heroes for hire.  I'm 99.99% certain it's her.  All the clues add up.

    I wonder if Team Iron Man will ever get a re-evaluation? Maybe add it to Rescue? What was the last character that came out with that affiliation? P4nther?

    Guess who made her arm.  You get one guess.....

    I can confirm that its she with this argument: since the latest version intro chars changed and loading icons too.
    Between these icons appears the new one and represents her hair and diadem.

    It really does look like all reasonable clues point to her...

    ...so, by MPQ release note clue logic, Mantis confirmed!

    What's the burst healing supposed to represent? Her bandaging/providing first aid to teammates? Doesn't seem like something she should have skill wise.

    At 5/3/5 she looks like a solid partner with Shuri and Magik.
    Easy tile generation, multiple ways to fortify, and a stronger, cheaper green than Shuri.
    In fact, with that team, getting 3 tiles fortified with her blue will get Shuri active. 
    Not bad for only 6 blue!

    No whale is giving up playing a 5* for that team. Which is 80%+ of players . With the way MPQ pushes 5* there’s no reason for new players to join.

    Wait, are you saying 80%+ of players are whales? That surely can't be right? Or do you mean competetive players?

    There was a survey taken by MPQ earlier this year , the results showing number of years playing, daily time playing and annual amount of money spent on game. 80% were 5 years or more , 3 hours a day or more , and $1000 a year or more . In my alliance alone I know there are 4 spending over $2500 annually so I can see the survey as credible. Plus the rosters I see in 90% of PvAI , there’s no way you build 20 plus 5 stars champed in under 5 years . I have one in 4 years and I don’t spend more than $200 annually ( half of that from free gift cards in loyalty programs)
