    Will this release line up with the show?

    Is it time for the She-Hulk show tie-in?

    Hulkamania's running wild for the month of August. Are Cho and MEH going to continue this craze till early September? Unfortunately, there isn't any green smiley in this forum.

    Something borrowed, something green...

    It got to be Abomination.
    Emil Blonsky is a former special-ops commander of the British Royal Marines who was loaned to SOCOM. In his efforts to capture Hulk, Thaddeus Ross recruited Blonsky and had him injected with a variant of the Super Soldier Serum. After losing to Hulk during a battle at Culver University, Blonsky had himself transfused with Banner's gamma-irradiated blood, causing him to transform into the Hulk-sized Abomination.
    Abomination isn't green, is he?

    Yeah, gotta be She-Hulk.  Got her powers through blood transfusion (borrowed) and is definitely green...

    She-Hulk is out on August 17. Our next two release dates are August 11 and 25. 

    Why do people say Abomination isn't green?  :o

    The Abomination is a beast similar in size to The Hulk. He has a humanlike face, and is a dark green color.

    Abomination looks kind of yellowish-brown in the MCU.

    Heroic Gorr event on the calendar... this is slightly terrifying to me.

    There're only two answers: She-Hulk and Abomination. The one in She-Hulk trailer looks green to me, but it could be due to lighting.

    And Heroic Gorr is going to be a cakewalk. I remember BRB and Dr Thor being part of the loaners with 3/3/3 build. You have two meta loaners for use.

    I was going to guess Hobgoblin for the Spidey anniversary tie-in. Like a borrowed glider? But that's borrowed *from* someone green.

    She-Hulk makes a lot of sense, but I was hoping we'd get a 5* closer to her show's release.

    PvE time has been corrected many hours ago. Hopefully, they note down all those mistakes that they have made.  :D

    They won't be able to know the steps needed to solve the problem.  :D 
    None of us know the steps except for the dev team.

    Too bad Yelena Belova boost week is now with Shang-Chi and not Doom. I mean the 1 thing she dose well, she now can't do. Same with Carnage. 
    Havoc teams you have been warn, Yelena is coming for you.
    Boosted Yelena owns unboosted SC, punishes and disrupts him. I assume she’ll still be quite disruptive to
    him with both boosted

    You exaggerate at bit as far as owning a unboosted SC. The thing is SC is boosted is this week. First in class needs 9ap or more. SC moves are 7ap, 7ap and a passive. In other words.
    SC>Yelena 
    Ps. By a lot lol

    This may be true with a player controlled yelena vs an AI shang chi, but the other way around the player will have shang going winfinite before yelena can do anything.

    Boosted Shang is untouchable. Every critical match is a One Punch . I can see why whales clear a grind in under 30 minutes . It’s bittersweet my play time will be 50% this week . The CN was 3-5 moves

    Well this has got to be the easiest new character to guess. The only thing missing from the clue is "PS: She's green too!"

    Is oscorp spidey going to be the required character two events in a row for PVE? Jus making sure this isn't a typo.
