What characters already in the game would you like to see leap into the 5* tier that aren’t there already?

  1. Bullseye
  2. Miles Morales
  3. Punisher
  4. Luke Cage
  5. Rogue
  6. Taskmaster
  7. Juggernaut
  8. Nick Fury
  9. Sabretooth
  10. Mister Fantastic

I’d love a new Stark but didn’t include him since he is represented. But if anyone could have and is due for a repeat, it’s him.

    X-Force versions of Psylocke and X-23 (I'd take a Captain Britain Psylocke too)
    Mystique
    Sentry
    Punisher
    David Hasselhoff Nick Fury
    Richard Rider Nova (does this count? Because it's not Sam Alexander. Likewise I'd like a Hank Pym Antman)
    Eddie Brock Venom
    Miles Morales
    Mr Fantastic

    1-Agent Coulson
    2-The Thing
    3-Winter Soldier
    4-Scorpion
    5-Venom
    6-Human Torch
    7-Blade
    8-Sam Wilson
    9-Luke Cage
    10-Rocket & Groot

    I guess my first four are one's I'd personally like to see at the 5* level whether it be because I like that character, feel they are deserving, or both. The rest would be more of a streamline wish list getting a 3,4, and 5* version.

    Some characters I really expected to get 5* tie ins to media but didn’t:
    Winter Soldier
    Shuri
    Namor
    Kate Bishop

    Some characters who only exist at the 4* level is use more if they were 5*s:
    Nightcrawler
    Kraven
    Rogue
    Vulture
    Blade
    Flaptain
    Vision

    Not in the game, but I want Longshot. Nothing else.

    Luke, Punisher & Iron Fist are all missing 5's to complete the set.

    Rogue & Nightcrawler are missing from the "Classic 7" line-up of the X-Men (Cyclops, Storm, Wolverine, Colossus, Rogue, Nightcrawler, Kitty) and Beast from the originals

    Taskmaster is a favourite of mine so would love with some 5* powers

    Sentry seems an obvious candidate as does Blade

    Rounding it out with Juggernaut seems a good place to stop. Oh wait...

    Namor seems like the obvious one that should be present in the top level. Sentry too, I guess, although yawn.

    It feels a bit off not to have the Fantastic Four represented and tgis would also be a great opportunity for some strong synergies (like if you play three of them and one is downed the fourth automatically joins the battle).

    Personally I want Nightcrawler because cool. Similarly Vision who is also a genuinely powerful character and hasn't ben very well treated by the game to date.

    Squirrel Girl has defeated just about everyone and should get that chance in MPQ too.

    Taskmaster is a good shout for a final pick but I still have a nagging suspicion that Quicksilver could produce some really fun power options if given some thought, so him.

    Said this in another thread... But a useable Venom would be nice. That God of light version that killed knull seems like a place to start

    I don't know the majority of the characters at this point, but it seems a bit silly to not represent Fantastic 4 (which I believe is it's own sizeable franchise) as at least decent characters. Personally, I'd rather they buff the 4star variants, but since they keep dumping new chars for the $$$, I'd say any one of, or all of, them.

    I thought Vision was supposed to be pretty strong and I liked his concept waaaay back in the day, so perhaps him also. I also agree with some of the others people mentioned, so:

    1. Fantastic 4, + Super Skrull
    2. Vision
    3. A non flamehead Deadpool (with fun bonuses like the other 2)
    4. Rogue
    5. Nightcrawler

    Awesome sequel.

    I would say these are the ones I really want.

    Punisher
    Iron Man ( I know he already is. But Cap has 2. So Iron Man should have 2, too. You are totally right and I have no qualms adding him. Superior, Extremis, Iron Patriot or Infamous would all work. And yes. I know 2/4 of those aren't Tony. )
    Miles Morales
    Void

    While these are more filler characters I just think would be neat to say I made 10.

    Winter Soldier
    War Machine
    Luke Cage
    Iron Fist
    Vision
    Psylocke

    Edit: Just looked back at other's lists. 5 star Peggy would be amazing as she is the only MPQ OC that isn't a 5 star.

    Okay. So I have since watched Spider-verse again.

    And realized something from it. I feel like of anyone, Jessica Drew really needs new variants. Isn't the current 4 star version of her for a costume she doesn't even wear anymore? And I am surprised we don't have her classic comic costume either.

    I want a 5 star Punisher but I feel like she really needs a new look and maybe even a mild rework.

    I'm happy to see all the Punisher wishes considering 3* and 4* aren't useful

    Not true! Back in 2014, Punisher was top 5! Remember mischiefmaker's character rankings?

    Yes and 3* Punisher was once considered top tier 3* too, fast forward to today and neither are useful for their tiers. I recall a few Q&As ago that the Devs said 4* Punisher was one the lowest used characters. It makes me sad and stuff lol

    Why's that?. Doesn't seem like Punisher is your favourite character if you only rank him #5,784 on your list
