Welcome back, Ice!! Hopefully you had a great holiday. Technically best choice is clearly a reference to 5* Madisynn.

Look at the buff list:
5-Star: Arcade, Chasm, Emma Frost, Hit-Monkey, Kamala Khan, Riri Williams, She-Hulk, Thor (Mighty)
4-Star: Abomination, Deathlok, Doop, Gorr, Hulkling, Namora, Puck, Reptil, She-Hulk, Spider-Man (OsCorp)
There are 10 + 8 of them. I suppose it's a special buff because all are BCS's work.
As for Technically Best Choice, I've no idea, so I went to Marvel to look for some potential hints. There are Marvel Wastelanders videos/audios and some game is releasing Baron Zemo and he's in this podcast as well. I guess Baron Zemo.

My guess is Forge as he is the best with technology, so he is technically the best. 😆

@IceIX - any possibility of both Ironheart and HitMonkey coming into Latest Legends at the start of the new season on the 12th? If not, we’re now looking at 46 days between the end of a new 5s special store and them getting into Latest… while a different new 5 is released in the meantime.
Allowing both of them to come in together will mean Emma leaves faster than others, but that’s not a bad thing if we get back on a normal schedule.

I thought the next 5 star was fed by Abomination? The clue seems like a weird fit for anyone gamma-powered. Any guesses? 5 star Jameela Jamil as Titania?

That's a good reminder. I think I guessed he feeds Thunderbolt Ross.

Is that right we have strange sights running from the 5th-8th and then again from the 15th-18th?

If the featured support for Puzzle Ops is not set in stone, may I recommend making it "Ebony Maw"? Purely selfish request as he is the only non-Infinity Stone support which I do not have.

Technically, the best choice to start the new year is probably Omega Red. Are we back on Omega Red? Maybe it’s technically better to go with Mojo.

Why isn’t the new season starting this Thursday??
As mentioned above will there be 2 leaving at the same time otherwise the update or new 5’s will be permanently out of sync

OK I'm staking my reputation on 5 star wong, since strange blipped he is technically best choice for sorcerer supreme also him and blonsky are connected so that's the feeder bit sorted.
Also strange sights and wong go hand in hand.8 -
It is Wong.

.
Has to be wong
0 -
Yes! Wong!!
It has to be... he is the "Wong" choice, but technically the "right" choice.1 -
Yes, Wong!2 -
If one of his powers doesn't involve Madisynn we riot
