***** Abigail Brand (Commander of S.W.O.R.D.) *****

This is our female version of Odin's abilities. Their abilities are pretty similar from a big picture point of view: ap destruction; healing, specific special tiles creation to give us passive nibble strategy to probably frustrate the opponents.
With that said, I'm surprised it's a yellow 2-turn cd instead of 1. The rest of numbers looks ok.
I think Odin/Wanda/Abigail would be interesting. They gives us up to 12k worth of healing every turn. Abigail's attack tiles + Odin's strike tiles + Wanda's repeater gives us this passive defensive nibble strategy.1 -
If the passive part of her purple was instead of being limited to once per turn it was 3 per turn (or more really), destroyed 2 AP and it was random AP instead of strongest color, then she would be a fun team with apoc and Ronan. But as it is Green Goblin fills that third spot better for a fun team.0

Yellow power was a repeater before?
Well, nevermind.
She sure can spam the board with strong attack tiles with cheap blue. Just with that she could make a solid team along kitty and ultron.
Counting all her powers she can spam the board with repeaters without any help, too.
AP destroying and healing makes for a long, delayed resistance battle.
Sadly all the modes in this game claim the opposite. I really hope that some day other modes in which not being fast could make shine character types like this one, in the same way we are getting slow characters: the experience would be more complete.
Until a great 5* partner appears, she could have a real powerful one on 4 tier:
She will heal her team up to 3 times per turn and antivenom can effectively turn that into an AoE rain(choose karoline dean and antivenom and just see).0 -
This literal who is supposed to be a 5*? Why did they slot this right behind big wheel?0

Drabigail Bland. Take that Omega Red1

Slow characters can have a place in this game, they just need to hit really hard (and also the fast characters shouldn't ever hit harder than them).
If a fast ability cost, say, 5ap and did 10000 damage, while a slow ability cost 15ap and did 80000 damage, then both abilities are usable. (All numbers are examples).
Instead we have characters with 15ap abilities that do 10000 damage and characters with 5ap abilities that do 80000 damage.1 -
Ok, so if you want a good laugh just go read her bio at marvel.com.
It reads like a fanfic setting a character against somebody’s favorites characters…with a slight furry twist.
Her bio is about everyone but her.

And she is commander of sword, but her affiliations are heroes and mutants…what?0 -
I thought her powers looked interesting before the numbers came out. Destroying 1AP, maybe 2 a turn is kind of meh. This needed the 3/turn limit as well. And I can think of a billion other 4/5* blue powers I'd rather use. The health is kind of nice but not going to be enough to matter in scl10 I think.
Seems like another easy skip for me.0 -
She'd be kind of a nightmare in PvE paired with certain goons. I wonder how long it'll take for her to show up there.0

Wow this looks bad.The Purple destroys 1 AP every 2 turns. Will you even miss it? The passive part can destroy another 1 AP only occasionally when something reaches 0.The Yellow power is a CD so it only works to reduce a CD/Repeater 1 time and that's it? I wonder how many times it won't do anything at all because all other CD's/Repeaters have been matched away in the 2 turns.All 3 powers only get fortified at 5 covers but you'll only be able to have 2 of the 3 fortified so 1 power isn't even getting that.KGB0

You were familiar with Big Wheel?4 -
It's funny because secret invasion Disney show will be finishing in April.
L. Jackson as fury, Emilia Clarke(daenerys) as abigail, and a lot of krees.
Do the devs know that fact? My guess is that no.
They released this comic version and the show will be a powerful bet.1 -
Apparently this is the first 5-Star release that has no corresponding "Introducing..."-event. Are there any news on the quests that are supposed to take its place?0

To be honest, I would really love to have Khora of the Burning Heart in game but I think she is a bit too brand new
On that note, it's disappointing that despite her Commander status she doesn't call upon her crew the way Nick Fury can summon the Avengers or Prof X can summon X-men characters. Also disappointing she doesn't have a S.W.O.R.D. affiliation because as previously mentioned that team is filled with awesomeness.
Full disclosure: I just want Manifold and Khora in the game.2 -
I do wish they wouldn't do this with certain powers - things likeAbigail Brand calls on the S.W.O.R.D.'s space station The Peak for a debilitating assault.
Then the power hits like a nerf gun. It's a freakin' Space Station!!!! In comparison Moon Knight can hit for 12k damage just by throwing a Moon shaped bit of metal!

Another comparison would be BRB's skuttlebut. Where he fires 4x damage and it is good damage for 12 green ap.1 -
These damage numbers seem unusably low on paper outside of the basic match damage. That yellow should be a fortified 1-turn repeater at 5 covers if it will have an active cost, and/or drop a repeater to 0 when it’s fired.1

And she is commander of sword, but her affiliations are heroes and mutants…what?I only just now realised who she is and I read the comic book run in which she debuted! I guess a lasting impression was not made! Or maybe the beers inbetween have taken their toll. Either way...Joss Whedon what were you thinking?with a slight furry twist.
Good god yes, now I remember...but it goes darker than that...

at max produces 4 strike tiles for 9 red AP.
The board should be flooded with strikes. Flooded!

First I would run her 5,5,3. The yellow CD if not fortified is negligible and the burst heal is not much different from 3-4. I will probably never fire her yellow anyway.
for partners in the 5* tier characters to pair with Iceman green repeaters.
Knull free CD tile and they both put out special tiles.
AW get out Abigale repeaters to keep AW healthy.
Robbie Reyes green create rainbow team.
hawkeye CD fun
Ulton rainbow team Ultron can buff tiles and black create repeaters
electro with green CD close to rainbow
OMD with his black passive.
ronin with his passive CD and his Blue repeaters
there are a lot of 5* now that put out CR or repeaters which means burst healing 5262 every other turn or every turn shouldn’t be too difficult to get to. It might take a bit to ramp up, but it could get annoying seeing a team burst heal that much each turn1
