He wouldn't be the first pick to stun, so even if he was immune it wouldn't make much of a difference. In his supposed teams you would rather stun polaris, brb, knull, or kitty first. Paired with R4G you would stun him, but other than that there's no reason to stun him first. When strike tiles are cleared from the board he isn't much of a threat at all.1

Hela for 9AP gives 4 strike tiles only slightly better than Ultron.
it might not be Apocalypse or IHulk level red but it is not bad. Plus you will be able to get out a lot of very strong strike tiles if you pairing him with a strike tile producer making his red do a lot of extra damage
If Ultron isn't at least as good as Apocalypse or Hulk, he is also unusable trash.
An Ultron boosted to 550 will be about as good as a 450 Apocalypse.1 -

It's more likely they don't have a lot of champed 5*, that's why they are using their other better options. In most boost weeks, I have only or two champed. In week 17 boost list, I have 0 champed.3

Your mmr is different from most of the players here because you have multiple 550 5* while most here have baby champed 5* to < lvl500 champed 5*. That's why you are getting matched with 550 rosters. I supposed you benefitted from your vintage 550 in the past, but they couldn't handle the 550 5* of the new era very well.
It just proves that staying at the top is harder than getting there, and mmr is working well.

I was just reporting what I see: few, if any, boosted 5*.
I actually didn't have any 550s until several months ago. I've been pulling classics continuously for 5 or 6 years so they all tend to grow evenly.
Anyway, I guess you're right, it's just power creep! Other players should have no problem taking on super old Classics like Okoye and Apocalypse if they use newer Latest Legends like Odin or Ultron.0 -

An Ultron boosted to 550 will be about as good as a 450 Apocalypse.It just depends on the character and also the required, in some rare cases. It might've been interesting to see if people used a boosted Parker had he been boosted during Web 2.0. With Miles flooding the board with web tiles and hiding, Parker's boosted green and red would probably hit like a truck. It would be nice if they put that kind of thought into it.I don't look at Ultron as particularly viable boosted, but maybe I'm wrong. Like I said before, a double-dip from him and Kitty might get ugly, especially if they are both boosted. He might also be fun to play boosted with Hela, since she's got a nice buff when you down an enemy. But if he doesn't have a good duo partner that week, he's definitely not one you're gonna force.0 -

Entrail, your problem is 2-fold. Your MMR is skewed with certain of your 5* being 550 AND not all 5* are created equal.We talked about the second part quite a lot so I won’t dwell on it again.For the MMR, I think there’s a lot of scope for D3 to fine tune it so that players at your MMR have a better experience.At my baby champ MMR level, I have a wide selection of teams to choose from, especially with the boosted 5*. It’s been a more pleasant experience for me. For your case I can imagine it being much worse since you only have a few 550, and it doesn’t match up to those with the newer 5*.0

I have no problem utterly demolishing these teams using various ridiculously high-level old characters.0 -

Ultron is brittys best partner, much better than polaris.
How are people not seeing this?
Britty and ultron would wreck any team in shield1 -
You need someone to create a strike tile for him, unless you want to collect 7 red aps.0

Anyone beaten the day 5 node with the loaners (CM, Beast, Thor) and no boosts?I tried something like 10 times and twice got him down to where the next turn I would have won but he killed me first. The other 8 he obliterated the loaner team because he could NOT stop lucking into match 5's which carved about 1/2 health off a character or more and of course all 3 characters are utter garbage (CM in particular is a poor choice due to her Black being worse than useless to fire).Once I got annoyed I switched to Polaris/Grocket/Medusa it took <12 moves (of course he lucked into yet another critical during that time).Since we can't stun on these test nodes the least they could do is set the AI critical damage to 1x to even it up.KGB1

I tried it once with the loaners, quit out pretty quick after first two dropped out after a couple of turns. Returned with a normal team to cruise through it.
would be interesting to know if it is at all doable with the loan team0 -
Use the loaner in the following order:
Carol/Beast/Thor
The strategy is simply to play defensively.
Using this setup, Beast tanks yellow, green and blue, while Carol tanks Red and Black.
Gather 6 blue as soon as you can, then match red or yellow. Ultron's top 3 colours will trigger Carol's passive, which nets you 5 red and 3 black aps.
When you have 24 red aps, fire Thor's red thrice to create yellow tiles. Fire Beast's blue followed by his yellow. You will repeat this a few times. Never fire Carol's black even when you have 30 of them because you are helping Ultron. You fire it when you will be able to down him in the next couple turns. Also, when someone is about to get stunned, always let Beast get stunned.
