    For PvE purposes, if you have a good support that gives you yellow AP at the beginning of match: 3* Iron Man, 5* Hawkeye, 5* Kang/3* Kang should be decent.

    I recommend boosting:

    2 red/yellow AP
    2 all AP boost
    2 blue/purple AP or Sentry World Rupture TU

    Should give you options depending on board state and whether your support activates or not.

    It's probably not the fastest team for people running meta 550s teams but may be a good option for challenge nodes with high health. You just need to make sure Kang and company can survive a few rounds of match damage and whatever else the opposing team can potentially throw at you.

    Am I reading his blue right? If you get 27 blue AP, enough to fire it 3x in one turn, you win the match, don't you?

    Yes that's how I read it.. BRB and polaris will accumulate that pretty quick

    I believe Kang has to place the CD to send the Enemy away. By the time you get 27 Blue with BRB/Polaris there won't be any basic tiles to place the CD.

    Ahhh I never thought of that

    Although once the AI takes their turn they would free up 3 tiles for u to place your countdown tiles

    Avengers tower and korg supports give a chance of 5 yellow ap at the start of the battle

    Total - if both trigger.
    Better use something like SP//DR for 5 or Sanctum Sanctorum, also 5.

    Great ap engine, but I don't know that it will handle the hardest challenge nodes that can do 30k damage per turn at 650 (kraven, gritty, etc). This team has no defense and 3 pretty squishy characters.

    So that's pretty funny...Kang is really good against everyone except the immortal characters! I guess we'll find out if that was their intention or it's just a bug.

    Has to be a bug.
    Lack of testing is a concern though, very first match should have been against Hulkasm.

    If it is not a bug he is useless in pvp but he will be fun in PvE.
    I expect it’s a bug since the away status should essentially place the character on a different board and not be seen by any currently active character.

    Thanks this would have been great but I've just checked and both of mine are at rank 1..

    Whys he no good against immortal characters? Do they revive if all 3 are sent away?

    He isn't useless against chasm. He restores AP always, isn't it?
    HE only fortifies 3 cds at each turn beginning. So he can gain a lot of blue with sentry, always if the cds are lucky enough.
    Same with IM but he will give extra blue even if losing one cd.

    Ihulk revives while Chasm is away.
    Or Wong.

    He'll struggle in the pick 2 pvp battles I think because he won't have his blue feeders

    He'll be fine, but he needs to be able to get rid of ihulk while Chasm is away, else his whole counter thing falls apart.

    Hmmm...not 100% certain, but it seems his Cosmic Tactician passive also includes countdown tiles resolving. If true, it adds significantly more consistency to running that team.

    I don't know about PvP, but he certainly has potential for the PvE meta.
