Class of 2021 PvP

Sekilicious

I’m not really looking forward to being reminded of what life was like without Polaris, lol. 4* land looks like it will be a bit of a slog with all the counters that rely on her spamming specials. I have Dark Beast and Morbius champed. I can champ Kate Pride to 280 right now, though I may have to dip into the farm for the iso. She should play well with Beast. I guess 5* land will look like normal PvP without the boosted characters with 5witch and Colo55us everywhere. I have Knull at 1/4/1 at least.

If ever proof was needed on the poor 5* releases this year it will be this event. I only have 3 of the lot champed and one of those was by default getting Coll and witch.

Who are people seeing with Colossus/Wanda? Knull? Ronan? Odin? Shang Chi?

4* land looks fun. I'll put together a thematic team called All Hail the Tails consisting of Lizard, Loki-Gator and Scorpion.

I ran that 4* team but 5* MMR means it got stomped out.

I tried a bunch of options, and settled on Wanda/Magneto/Colossus so far. Haven’t seen too many of the current latest crop yet but it’s early in the event still.

I’ll be running col5 5witch and maybe electro. Possibly a 4* depending on the team makeup

It might work if you could hit those bots first. However, it's a novelty team. They have too many colours overlap.

On the 5* side, I'm seeing quite a number of Wanda/Colossus with Mantis or Knull.

Putting Mantis out there invites attack but offensively, you hope one of them get stunned passively. To add on, Mantis also has an infinite green stun. I'll probably stun Colossus infinitely first

Knull nibbles on your team and he helps to put even more charges on Wanda's repeater. He might have big health, but he nibbles. However, watch out for his purple active power. That's where serious damage can hit you.

There're other teams, but they aren't as commonly seen as the above two teams. As for the rest of the 5*, I have seen all at least once except for Ultron and Magneto.

ThaRoadWarrior

I’m in Slice 1 running Magneto if you want to try your luck lol. Not saying it’s a great team or anything though. Us Wanda’s purple to add yellow to the board and he can hit deceptively hard eventually. 

It does seem that most 5* players I’m up against are rotating various third wheels between Wanda/a colossus.

TheEyeDoctorsWife

As a newcomer reaching 5* in Dec 2020, I’ll finally have a chance to compete evenly in an event with Steel Witch + Knull 

dianetics

The 4*s I’m interested in running are mantis, lizard, Kate, and believe it or not Monica.
I’m high on knull but I’m not sure he pairs with 5witch and collosus

HoundofShadow

I don't see your team but I have finally found Magneto in other teams. I'll probably see Ultron in next year Class of 2021 pvp.

Wanda/Colossus/Odin can be a pain. There are a lot of fortification and healing going on. Pesky Odin keeps jumping in, so I decided to put him in front for the rest of the match. It took quite some time but I turned on animation. So, that added to the length of the match.

dianetics

That team will be slow and annoying, just don’t target Odin and let him create fortified tiles. You will take damage no matter what and it becomes troublesome on deciding who to down first.
I’ll have a better idea when I join slice 4 later.
The good thing though it is unlikely to see a lot of Odin teams since he is so new.

ThaRoadWarrior

It's a shame you can't bring a Heimdall or Shuri with you up against Odin in this event, because opponent Odin is the best ally for those two characters. You just whack him until all the fortifications you need fall out for free and then get to work. 

Ultron isn't yet in Latest, so I'm not that surprised we aren't seeing him. I am a little surprised I'm not coming across too many Shang-Chi users though. I guess it's still a little early for him as well.

dianetics

You can take lizard and he is a lot of fun in the fortification game.
Maybe with knull, forcing the team to target lizard and force odins jump in. It will all slowly build to huge strike tile attacks within 7 or so turns.

MadScientist

So far, trading hits using the loaner Shang-Chi is surprisingly fun.

My shang is 4 3 5 (2) spread and about 90 shards from his final cover. So I will be using him this event . It's a shame we can't bring things like Vulture or IMHB or Riri to help battery him

This will be a skip from me. Colossus/Wanda are impossible to counter without your own Colossus/Wanda, so thanks for that devs. Any random chud who pulled from that LL store this year will reign supreme for an event, let them have their day. 

entrailbucket

Maybe they can run Class of 2016 next!

dianetics

They should really run a 345 event. Or a 234 event
give the ya the guns a chance

Hellblazer666

I have been using Red Guardian Scorpion and Silk. Just going for lots of damage.

HoundofShadow

It's not necessary to use a mirror to counter Wanda/Colossus. I used Knull/Mantis/Beast to beat them. If there's a will, there's a way.

acescracked

Boosted Santa Claus really helps col/Wanda on defense.
