    I checked other F2P Marvel mobile games like Contest of Champions, Realm of Champions, Future Fight and Strike Force, and nothing turned up for WandaVision. They must be keeping things pretty tight.

    I don’t want to speculate on the clues or anything here, but a 5* Wanda would tie in perfectly with the fact that the finale aired this weekend.

    Give a few days for people to watch it to save spoilers and so now would be the perfect time to unveil it.

    Is the new 5 supposed to be announced today ?

    5Cyclops just bumped 5Mags out of latest legends. Thought there would be a new post from D3 but guess we're waiting a bit longer.

    I'd love to get the Wanda we see in the finale, especially the end credits scene, but looking at history, anything that is released close to the source material is held to only items that could be seen in promotional material. 

    Mysterio for example has a heroes affiliation and a matching info panel because he released the same month that Far from home was released on theaters, and the narrative in the film trailers and first half of the movie is that he was a good guy.

    Mordo on the other hand was released six months after the Dr strange movie was released in theaters, and so he has a villain affiliation and info panel, despite being a hero for the entire film and turning to bad only in the end credit scene.

    Maybe because this was a TV series and they had new more recent promos every week it could be different, but if we get a Wanda now I imagine it will be very "what we're used to" version which would be a bit of a bummer considering her developments in the show.

    If I was designing a 5* Wanda, I’d want her like 3* Deadpool and a few others, where each time you select her you get a different graphic (Wanda from different eras). Except it’d be cooler if the graphic was also random in-game too. If they made the finale outfit a purchasable costume, my guess is they’d make some decent money (same but to a lesser extent for her costume in episode 6). They could do a lot of cool things with a 5* Wanda. But..

    Do she counter Hulk doe!?

    If I was designing Wanda I’d do a living GED power where all specials are destroyed on board doing X amount of damage per tile destroyed

    I’d have her set up runes at start of battle at all 4 corners that disable all other powers till you match clear them.

    Sounds like 4 Horsemen...

    It is entirely possible we don't get a 5* Wanda until Dr. Strange 2: Multiverse Boogaloo!
    If they do skip the very character ripe for MPQ versions WandaVision then what about Falcon & Winter Soldier which also has a rich layer of paydirt?

    Let's see?  Odd clue about a color it's not, suspected female due to IWD, people get hopes up about characters that would make sense, then we get nothing... With no explanation.

    5* Baron Zemo confirmed... Because he knows what's good for you, better than you do, and he's kind of a jerk about it.

    Visually similar, but legally distinct lol. Those each have specific removal conditions, and all they do is prevent Apocalpyse from taking permanent damage till you clear them I think. And now I think of it, maybe this power would need to be something that would go live across the match rather than being a battle-start situation in order to be thematically appropriate anyway.

    Will it still stay if she is downed?

    Seems like it wouldn't to me, but I'm hardly the sorcerer supreme

    A game where you can only hurt eachother with standard match damage until you clear FOUR hard to reach tiles seems painfully slow and boring. Thematically cool though.

    The suspense is killing me. Even though I won't be pulling for some time until Clops leaves LL. Hoping they release a very good 5 this time around and give us something to be excited about at least.

    I'm not sure how well it would work in practice - 4 tiles are probably excessive. Maybe some sort of un-matchable tile like Eye of Agomatto or whatever Bolt's thing is called would suffice?

    Or have four and matching any one of them would break the rune. My guess is Wanda would still be able to use her powers, but everyone else (teammates included) couldn’t.
