    You can fill in the blank by taking away Colossus or High Evolutionary.
    Regardless, fun team to use with many options to win.

    High Evolutionary is also way, way better than everyone thought.

    Ya, I like the Hood-ish passive, sneaky good.

    I thought he was bad, but he turned out great.

    I don't want to get off-topic, but can you expand on this? Does "great" mean "great when boosted"? Or do you use him non-boosted as well?

    I use him unboosted. Paired with kitty they work very well for a lot of nodes in PvE

    We will be here all night if we start to try and say who "deserves" things.*

    My confession (which I have said here more than once) - I think Omega Red sucks donkey balls. He is a terrible character with no credible personality, ridiculous powers (what the **** is a "death spore?) and his design is embarrassingly of its time to the point where it makes Feral and Shatter star look cool. I wouldn't make him a 1*.

    But people seem to love him so if we get him then good for them. It will be a Symbiote version of course but hey, ya can't have everything. 😉

    • Hypno Hustler obviously being the 5* only exception

    We need a dislike button. I mean to each their own, so mostly in jest, but “makes shatter star look cool” Ouch.

    If O Red isn’t a 5* I’d prefer they didn’t add him at all. I would accept a symbiote version at this point though.

    That was a bit mean girls of me. Sorry Shatterstar fans.

    I'm sure the annual summer picnic the four of them throw will be especially eventful this year.

    I've been running Wong / Arcade in Pick 2 against any unboosted (non-Chasm) teams I find during PVP events.

    It's a fun team, that hits harder than you'd expect, and Arcade helps gather even more AP to get more strikes for Wong

    I run Wong with basically anybody that I don't have a partner for. This is especially true for boosted 5s that I don't have partners for.

    He is my slot in second when I don't want to think about a partner in pick 2. So he comes out at least once every pve now.

    Also wondering why people think it's good, or was it just people thought he was garbage before? I mean, I like his powers in theory, especially gaining AP for enemy matches/powers. I just don't really see any reason to use him when I have shang/mthor/kk/brb/riri/chasm/ihulk and polaris to go with em. What's the interaction with kitty?

    Side note, I'd love to pull for him, but I reaaaaaaally don't want or need any jeffreys, gwenpools, or dinosaurs lol.

    Just to clarify -- the comment you quoted was about Wong, not about HEvo (dianetics uses Wong unboosted, pairs with Kitty, and also with any other unpartnered 5s). That being said, I would be interested in everyone's take on when you might use HEvo as well ...

    Wong is fantastic all by himself. None of those listed are necessary

    Sheds a single tear with two parallel drips on it while eating a hot dog with two parallel dogs in it, waiting for the other three fans to arrive at the picnic...

    Just came to see if we had a feeder for this one yet. Looks like not quite.

    Too much effort.
    Gotta work on the Chasm rebalance.

    He's not gonna rebalance himself, that's for sure.

    I'll never understand with problematic characters like this one we why can't just incrementally work on it - like just make it so he only eats 2 of your AP from a match-3 instead of all 3 as a start. See how that feels. Still good, but not an absolute shut down for basic play. Figure out where the health regen line is so that a defensive cascade of 5* match damage doesn't completely refill him to full health. There feel like a huge number of ways to make him less good without making him actively bad.

    Devs were/are at SDCC so expect radio silence maybe? Although isn't new 3/5 due this week?

  • ThaRoadWarrior
    ThaRoadWarrior Posts: 9,485 Chairperson of the Boards

    Surely they didn't send the actual working Devs to SDCC, but some sort of bizdev contingent from BCS, right?

    One would think so, yes.

    Not got a clue. If anybody wants to see a couple of the devs they are on a short video spinning around for some reason on the MPQ Facebook page! Enjoy!
