HoundofShadow said: Before this, players were concerned about how many new 5* are bottom-tier/unusable. Now, we have players concerned about power creep... If we go for average, it will be like Havok, good but forgettable and bland.Which is the worst problem?
fight4thedream said: If anything, the current set of *5 characters seemed to be designed with the intention of expanding the meta. Gargantos: CD tiles (Hawkeye, Coulson, 4* Captain Marvel) Kamala Khan: Special tile generators (Apocalpyse, Beta Ray Bill, Polaris)Mighty Thor: Charged tiles (5* Storm, Black Bolt, Throg) All are above average so it's very likely you will see them when god-boosted in PvP but I don't think a player will get any more value from them when they are not boosted than they would from other B tier level characters (with the possible exception of Mighty Thor.) For pick 2 PvP:Gargantos + HE: Strong offensive team but unboosted lacks defensive teeth and can be taken out by iHulk/high Okoye or Shang-Chi teams.Kamala runs into the problem that she pairs best with Apocalypse and BRB. The problem being they pair better together than they do with her. Between the two, she pairs best with Apocalypse because of his damage boost and generates more special tiles in general. However, Apocalypse/Kamala is a significantly weaker defensive team than Apoc/BRB. Not sure what to think of Mighty Thor beyond it looks like she has the highest potential to make a dent in the meta since her abilities counter Apoc/BRB/Scarlet Witch. From the top of my head, 5* Colossus seems like her best partner, especially if you have a big one. His match damage will benefit from the charged tiles and for the most part there is very little color overlap. With that said, it's not clear if any of them are going to break the current speed barrier for PvE. I know a lot of people are excited about Apoc/BRB/Kamala but I am not certain how it compares to Apoc/BRB/Polaris.I suspect for initial clears, Apoc/BRB/Kamala is faster but for more difficult, higher level nodes Polaris is the better choice. Then again, it probably falls down to what sort of supports you are using. I guess we shall see!
Bad said: First of all, to remark another time that those 3 are the new characters designed by the new devs, as it's said. So nothing can assure that the next 5* will be really good too.It can't be 3 coincidences: those guys actually know what they are doing.After saying that, I do believe that the rebalances they will do will be meaningful and every 5* will have his chance. Sadly we need to wait for that.I also believe that the new 3* characters will be updated versions and will be far superiors that the current 3*s.And now, about mighty thor. I think she is the character with most potential until now. It won't be fast, but she can counter apocalypse, SW, BRB, carnage, gargantos, kitty, polaris, KK... it's hard to find a character who can't be defeated by her on the due time.It would be safe to say that she always will be the most dangerous foe in a team. And that is a lot to say.

And that is a lot to say. Those characters most likely are leftovers from Demiurge.We know they take a few months to design characters, the ones designed by Broken Circle won't be out until September I assume.
