HoundofShadow said: Purple at 3 cover give you a max of 3 charged tiles4 cover 5 charged tiles5 cover 8 charged tilesScenario 1The difference between 3 and 5 blue cover is 1780 damage at 10 combo points, or 5340 damage per match-3 at 10 combo points.Scenario 1a:Using red critical match-3 with 10 combo points as an example, At 3 cover, he deals (3580+992)x 3 x 4.5= 61,722 damageAt 5 cover, he deals (5360+992)x 3 x 4.5= 85, 752 damage.So, the difference is 24, 030 damage.Scenario 2Since 5 purple gives you guaranteed charged critical match-3 compared to 3/8 probability with 3 purple cover, Your charged red critical red match-3 will deal ((3580+992) x 3 + (3580+992) + (3580+992) x 3) x 4.5 = 144, 018 damage, which is about 68% more damage than a normal crit match-3.Actually, it's quite difficult to give a definite build for him because he's just that flexible. If you find yourself using purple frequently, then you want to max his purple. If you find yourself making normal matches more frequently, than 5 in his blue would be better. Of course, if you are not playing SCL 10, 5 purple looks like an overkill unless you are dealing with Wanda/Colossus or anyone with match damage reduction. Another way to guide you is to look at the healthpoint of your opponents. Are their hp around 80k or 144k? 80k = 5 blue, more than 100k = 5 purple. Another factor depends on your average combo points that you can maintain per match. If you can maintain about 5, then 5 purple will be good.

entrailbucket said: My advice would be to set purple to 5 always, then test his red power at 3, 4, and 5 and see which you like best. Set blue to whatever's left. Everyone will probably have a different preference for red so you'll have to try out different values to find yours.

Everyone will probably have a different preference for red so you'll have to try out different values to find yours. My covers fell to 5/1/1 and I can honestly say, the 5 in Red is more often a waste then not. Running him with 5* Thor, I'm not usually at a loss for red ap so I'll use SC red to make a match and use the remaining tiles to randomly blow something else up. I think his best build is probably 3/5/5. I genuinely think his red is his worst power (keep in mind, I didn't say it was a BAD power, just not as good as the other 2). RNG kinda screwed me on this one.
