    My 304 Hydra Stomper won on my first try, but it took 10 min and was an overall awful experience.

    completed it first time but wasn't pretty.
    Every time I had the board flooded with the black countdown tiles that actually cause damage somehow the AI would find a way to match every single one away. 
    Loaded up on protect tiles to keep damage to a minimum but eventually got there.
    Talos vs captain marvel was a better experience...

    It took me a pair of tries, but Hydra Stomper isn't super great alone. You really just need to do everything you can to chase green, and it would ideally be best if you could double-fire it (or triple fire it if you are able to hit all 30). You really need to cause cascades on the turn you fire it to maximize the possible black tiles that will drop in as CDs. Fire yellow whenever you have it for additional protection. My Hydra Stomper is 302, with a 3/5/5 build for context.

    It took a while, but I got through it by the skin of my teeth. Level 299 Hydra Stomper, no boosts, finished with about 50 hit points left.

    Did you use any boosts?

    Do you have the taskmaster sword support?   This helped get through the match up without any issues.

    Sorry I thought it was funny :p 
    But yeah having Stompers only damage dealing ability dependant on cascade and countdown really slows down the match.

    Taskmaster Sword was the lifesaver here.  I just ended up matching HBIM to obilivion.

    Everybody sucks  :#
    It's the only logical option missing. 

    After saying that, my HS is L 310. I have 10k health more than AI. And I finished with 3k health. 
    HS is a support character who fails on his role as he needs to tank for giving AP. So unless you have him maxed and with a support granting him color damage, he only can aim for green and try to create cascades, and his cds are weak. 
    Equip him a good support and boosts.

    I used Taskmaster’s sword and targeted green. Stompy is an awful solo character but great if he tanks all colours for a couple of glass cannons

    294 with task master and I didn’t even give it a second thought. I don’t even know what his powers do. I just matched yellow green and blue and countdowns were doing stuff. I barely took any damage and it was done.

    I had to do it twice to be able to win and my Stomper was only level 277. Used some boosts too but if you get a good board with chasing green matches and preventing Hulkbuster from dealing damage with his powers I didn’t find it that difficult, just time consuming.

    290 Hydra Stomper with 3* Chewie easily took down Buster Hulk on the first try. I focused on the yellows and greens.

    P.S. Thank you for allowing me to say “you suck” regardless of my personal feelings towards you.

    I completed one the 1st attempt at lvl 281 4/5/4 without any boost.  It took a while.  We don't want Hulk to claim red, so I claimed a lot of red and Yellow to cast protect tiles.

    I did a damage boost and was able to easily win.

    But yeah some 4 stars aren't  meant for 1v1 matchups.

    I suck.  Beat him on the second try.  Honestly, if it wasn't for the info in this thread I might still be trying to beat hulkbuster.  

    My Stomper is lvl 293, build is 4/5/4.  Chewie helped(also 3*). I never would have thought of using that support.  Also used power boosts(red/yellow, blue/purple, all colors all x5).  I used ap boosts first try, same breakdown x2.  No luck.  

    Stomper is a terrible offensive player.  Definitely has his uses, but one on one isn't it.  Thankful it didn't drag out longer become a resource pit.

    I went into it did a few matches and was confused about the low damage. Then it dawned i me I forgot to equip the sword. Left the match came back with my blade, called it a day.

    Don't forget to let HB gain black aps so that he can deal 1.5k damage to himself. Overall, cds are inconsistent even firing it thrice in a row.

    Beat it with a 131 Hydra Stomper (2/3/1). Used a Level 250 Sharon Carter Support and all damage boosts. 

    Match blue/red to do damage and deny AP. Pure match damage win.
