I’ve messed around with a bunch of 5s that I just champed.

I think ultron is the worst character in the game right now.

Am I wrong or is Ultron now the new Wasp?

    Nope ultron at least does something, not well but he does buff tiles at least, I'm afraid hope is still pointless

    I’ll give you rescue but wasp is a bit better now.
    Sinister is umm special.

    Maybe black widow. I don’t use her to know much.

    I do know right now wasp is better than Ultron.
    Sinister will give you problems when you try to down him.

    Ultron had no defense, and if you have no saps he has no offense. I think he is the worst 5* now. Who has used him regularly ever?

    How does Wasp still get on that list? If I play - that is when I have time to play - I use her to beat CN regularly. And yes, I have like two more teams that can do that but ya know.

    I need one more cover for Ultron to champ him so I need him not to be the worst 5*...

    So c'mon - there has to be worst drek like Abigail Brand (who I have fully covered and am slowly levelling to champ, so actually no not her either)

    Rescue? Jeff? Chasm (soon to be)? Does anybody like Cable really?

    Jeff and cable are much better. Abigail is in the trash tier.

    Who is the worst now?

    Even with the recent change, if I had to pick one of them to go into a fight, I would easily pick Ultron over Wasp. Personally, I think Rescue is the worst. Mister Sinister is close behind. His kit could be good but SO much has to go your way for him to even be close to average.

    forum lives in a different perception plane of theorycrafting, Wasp cannot not leave "worst list" unless she oneshot passively the ennemy team turn 2 consistently

    Dr strange, so so weak

    Ultron has modern health and match damage, which probably saves him from "worst," although he's still pretty bad.

    I've used both Ultron and Abigail in PvP prior to Chasm. I don't think either one is trash tier, tbh.

    Bottom 3 to me are probably Abigail, Knull, and Odin; maybe I'd swap Ultron in there for Knull, it's hard to say. Ultron should be stun immune at least, being a robot and to match all PVE implimentations of the character.

    I still don't use Wasp after the rebalance. There are characters with good powers but low ancient numbers like Goblin or Strange that I don't think belong in the bottom fundamentally like the characters that just don't work.

    Isn't Wasp still bugged?

    It's hard to say, they kinda stopped fixing bugs.
    Still waiting for Monkey's team up to work.

    I'm with you on Odin. I don't think he's the worst, but in the bottom rung for sure. He should be one of the hardest hitters in the game, but he's a slap hitter at best. And this is after his rebalance. I was thrilled when he was announced but have been disappointed ever since.

    He got a rebalance? When was that, and what did it do?

    Darn! She does that on turn 4!

    I swore he got tweaked when Introducing Odin was rerun after his release. This was a year ago give or take a week. I searched for the info on it but it seems the only change was the amount of shards given out during said event. I was wrong, no rebalance.

    I have a team with Hope that works well.
    Same with Ultron. If I can find/create a team that works with a character, I’m fine.

    Abigail is too weak and her yellow upsets me. Why make it a CD? Wth.

    Green goblin, BSSM, strange need more strength and they’ll be fine.

    IW Cap is just SO niche that putting him on a team is really not worth it. But I’d love to be proven wrong.

    BW….. her powers cost too much. AND she’s weak. Moon knight’s powers also cost a lot. But at least he’s not weak.

    I can work with Knull despite his black being junk.

    Odin is….. so convuluted. It really takes a lot of timing to get him to thrive.

    If rescue wasn’t a technologist…..

    I used Knull very successfully before Chasm, as well. Your bottom 3 perplexes me except for...

    Odin stinks. He could be a great defensive character, but it's like they got cold feet and stopped short of giving him the necessary kit.
