    My guess is also Emma Frost Phoenix Five. 
    There are so many similiarities with Colossus' and Cyclops' powers. "Increases teammates’ match damage, match damage is increased by XX%, takes 15% less damage, and they cannot be stunned."
    And of course the clue Mind Palace for a telepath like Emma.

    yeah lookin like Emma frost for sure, mind palace makes sense now since she her powers affect the mind, etc. ,and her affiliation 3 might be phoenix five, making her different from her 3 star variant, plus they might finally add it on to the other phoenix 5 members

    Her blue also has some similarities to 4* Frost's black.

    I’d put my ticket into the Emma Frost pool too.

    Feels very similar to 4* Frost - I hope she is good at this tier once the numbers hit. 

    I’m interested in those protect tiles that seem to have a specific flavor. Are those some kind of character tile?

    how does that red passive work? Alllied matches are base increased, then what, 2% per red in the match? Red in the bank? Red on the board?

    Hmm, if the affiliation is on Phoenix Five, then she will boost Colossus match damage even more!

    Looks at clue and powers, reads guesses, double checks Kitty is champed, immediately abandons every far fetched schema ever hatched to make 4* work.
    kk,chasm,jane,emma….#breakinghoard

    I did love the House of X costume though…. I will miss that a little I suppose

    Looks pretty interesting. When the character uses blue it disables their other actives but the passive on red will still be in effect. That could be pretty fun using this character with Colossus for sure. The purple is nice for enemy power suppression and the active should be handy against goons and mindless ones. I don't have a 5Cyclops leveled, I wonder who else would make good partners with this character and Colossus. Can't wait to see the numbers on the red team damage since it's stated as being high.

    If 2 or more characters increase match damage does it stack? I assume it does so if Emma and Colossus are on the team then she boosts Colossus even more or if she and Cyclops are on the same team he he fires his Yellow then the 3rd team member gets boosted twice.

    Sometimes it does. Sometimes it doesn’t. 

    Ex, Rogue’s green stacks with colossus’ yellow but they both don’t stack with Killmonger’s red passive. 

    But cyclops’ yellow adds to his teammates’ base so their match damage can be stacked twice. 

    So I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

    She will be in LL together with Chasm and She-Hulk. Both have their own damage modifiers, and they both can revive. The horror...

    That red is making me feel a sort of way. It doesn’t just deal team damage. It deals “high damage”. And at level 1 it destroys 4 “selected” tiles. Let’s make some cascades and match4/5s happen. And at level 3, you can select at least 5 tiles (maybe a bit of overkill but I’ll be here for it. If nothing else, I’ll select every tile in a specific color at level 3-5).

    so far, I’m leaning towards 5/5/3. I’m not a big fan of shutting down the active powers but her purple doesn’t seem that great. It’s expensive, pops randomly, and I’m sure reducing opponents power level is worthwhile considering it only lasts a couple of turns.

    It seems like a great 5* to use with affiliations. That match damage could get wild.
    Their red is the money here, as it can create cascade ala SC and damages high (SC is giving this character a warm welcome even if it's not from his affiliation).
    The purple being a fortified CD makes for a great detail (former team possibly wouldn't lol).
    And they share similarities in power with the 3* version, so using it as a 5* or as a 3* will be interesting.

    I'm not sure SC is loving the purple/red power overlap.

    SC would just use Frost’s match boost and Emma would sit by while SC did all the heavy lifting. Colossus or Chasm on the other hand would be quite happy to let her fire away in red and purple

    On offence SC would love the tagetted tile destruction and team damage and happily fire away the purple the problem is defence I hate anybody along with Sc with an active Color overlap ;His purple is an one punch with some saved combo points but the slightest defence factor is lost with another purple user

    I'm excited about this being Phoenix Five Emma Frost.  Depending on how the damage boosting works, this could get bonkers quick.

    Shang doesn’t like to share; it’s all about him.  Red passive is nice, but better to have a partner that gives him more combos while creating another effect. Mighty Thor blue/yellow, for example.

    If SC has 10 AP, not something really strange, and this character grants him then 90% plus damage, plus all his combo points, and another character creating effects like you say, don't you think SC has less work to do to wipe out the stage?
    Also this character is expected to destroy 5 tiles while dealing high AoE.
    SC could be set to 3/5/5 and take advantage of their red, if he doesn't need extra health.
