Kamar-Taj support

Just got a pop up to buy a new support for Kamar-Taj, and it gives a bonus for equipping it to Kamar-Taj. So supports can be equipped to themselves now?

    Characters like Shang-chi and Wong have Kamar-Taj affiliation. It was worded rather badly, just needed to say something like 'allies with Kamar-Taj affiliation...'

    Had exactly the same thought. Probably a new affiliation.

    Yes, saw Wong and Mordo too for sure.
    Perhaps they want you to buy it to see with character fits with it ;-)

    Given that supports aren't currently in PvP, I'm guessing the Immortal Bros are coming to a challenge node near you, soon(TM)!

    Supports coming to pvps, finally. It's been a long wait.

    Would be nice to get info.
    Like, ANY info at this point.

    If supports come to PVP on attack and not on defence I might forgive all their 'mistakes' this year.

    Huh, seems like we are about to see their planned revision to the supports system.

    This is clearly a soft counter to immortals, which is odd because immortals have the biggest impact on pvp and supports currently don't work there.

    Otherwise this definitely seems like a bit of a power creep from the current average support. It seems more inline with the current outliers lime royal talon fighter.

    The rank 3 is great/top tier put it on a Apoc ally and it is mint.

    The rest of this team up seems 100% legit useless... There is no enemy in pve that revives.

    So why even include revive negation on a TU? It is wasted power budget. Please devs try again.

    Empower allied special tiles by 20%, plus 5% if the enemy team includes a Multiversal or Supernatural Enemy.

    The first use of a Yellow power costs 4 fewer AP (Minimum 3)

    After 2 turns, for each Genius, Supernatural Multiversal ally, they gain a burst of 15.0% healing and create a fortified yellow protect tile with between 195 and 2199 strength based on the equipped character's rarity.

    Once per battle, when an enemy is downed, allies from Kamar Taj arrive to make sure they stay out of the fight.

    I'm surprised no one is screaming P2W yet.

    They REALLY want you to use Kang IM40 on PVE.

    If they didn't want you to buy it they should have introduced it while Puzzle Ops

    It won't be useless if they put one in pve or let you use supports in pvp. I'm sure this is based on a future plan.

    Supports in PvP will break the game. Top tier players will punch down on regular players.

    Unless you can get Infinity Stones into the larger population they will kill pvp.

    They're already killing pvp.
    But yeah nobody wants to get tripled on every hop.

    But unless they allow us a reasonable way to max level our supports it will not do much to even the playing field. A lot of supports only shine from lvl4 onwards.

    This support rank 3 could add to Kang/IM40 combo. IM40 fires yellow for 4 AP 2 turns and Kang sends everyone away

    Except you'd have to run a Kamar-taj guy as third instead of Hawkeye.
    So no good.
