Beta Ray Bill week returns! 

And didn't we, like, *just* have Robbie Reyes?  Someone over there really likes him.

    I have all 4 champed, but not really seeing any synergy here.

    Those are really popular characters so it will be a pvp funny and there will  be lot of diversity. 
    Ghostpool was there recently too. 
    Perhaps polaris or kitty will help BRB as always. 
    It could be another week in which these characters will have few pves and pvps.

    Must be for Halloween I guess re: Robby. Strange and Ghost Rider make a rainbow, but they're both very dated in every way so they probably won't get a ton of play together.

    Beta Ray Bill and Dr Strange could work well, though.  Dr Strange blue is really one of the better stuns in the game.  Since Beta Ray Bill generates infinite totally free blue AP, you should be able to use both blue powers.

    Unboosted, Dr strange has boosted 3* health, 35,842 at level 450. Boosted will he even have as much health as Knull?

    They really should revisit him.  When they released him they still cared about balance, and casting powers was the only way to win matches.  To prevent him becoming oppressive, they had to balance him by giving him super low health.

    Now, if your team has to cast powers to win, it's basically unusable, so Strange counters a meta that doesn't exist.  His stun is still pretty good though!


    I think you can get away with running him and BRB because, in addition to infinite free blue AP, Bill also generates an infinite amount of protect tiles, for 6 blue.

    I think he only has about 90,000 something health. Maybe 93k? It was definitely under 100k. Anyway, I feasted on Strange teams the last time that he was boosted in pvp.

    Multiply by ~ 2.5 for 450-->569. That's almost 90k.

    BRB and Deadpool is probably my go to team. Everyone has been boosted at least once in this list. Who's left are those beginning from Ronan's release.

    Is Dr Strange still useful in SCL 10 against goons? I think their hp is between 60k to 180k?

    I stopped using him when I champed Polaris. This current event was the first time I dusted him off . You need A) Okoye and B,) 2 or 3 goons firing 1-3 powers per turn ,  and you can eventually do 20-60K damage per turn.

    It works when he's boosted, otherwise you'd need Okoye or Apocalypse.  At that point you're better off with Hulk or Warlock over him.

    I've not used (3*) Dr Strange for a long time too.

    450 boosted 5* Dr Strange deals 14.5k passive damage against goons.  That damage looks like something suitable scl 9. Okoye needs to be there with him in scl 10.

    Dr Strange's movie is coming out next year. Hopefully, we have a new 5* Dr Strange.

    I wouldn't mind having a playable character from the Strange verse.  

    Dormamu, the faceless goon things we see in pvp, the person who taught Strange his magic etc.
