    So far the team ups that are playing up have all been sort'a useless or inconsequential.

    I found 3* She Hulk's Furious Charge somewhat annoying.

    I guess as you say stuns would be tedious, but what's the worst option out there to have fired twice or not in a row? And has anyone encountered it yet?

    Anything involving AP draining would be super annoying, anything that makes people go airbourne and definitely Shulkie and Bowgentle's examples.

    It is not too fun having Spider-Man team ups place crit tiles over and over again when you are against boosted 5s. I barely survived the match and only won because I got a lucky cascade.

    Penance Stare, Polaris, Deadly Hands... There's a few that come to mind.

    Deadly Hands? This got me to thinking since no one has ever asked for it. Is it giftable? Of course since combo points would be 0, it would just be placing a single crit tile right? The first two would be brutal for sure though.

    I've wiped due to Penance Stare TU more often than just about anything else. When you're running 650+ characters, fighting 650+ characters, the numbers get really big. If I've downed two enemy characters I might've done 700,000 damage.

    The AI doing that much damage on one cast of a team-up really shouldn't happen -- they should remove it from the AI's rotation.

    I’m pretty sure you can’t give Shang Chi as a team up so Deadly Hands wouldn’t be able to be used by the AI

    While I'd also give Penance Stare the #1 position, I'd like to shout out 3-star Loki's Illusions. So much board swap...so many random matches. It's dirt cheap at 5 TU as well, so one activation can lead to enough TU to cast it again next turn.

    Thanosing Hulkasm and had them fire Spider-Gwen's stun 4 times. Before that, Hulk self died in a cascade and revived Chasm already, once. Stuns kept going on Thanos, my Banner's CD kept getting matched by Hulk's shake. Luckily, I didn't cascade and could hit Chasm with off colors until Banner transformed finally. Barely any health left. Pure comedy...

    I created a bug report. I’ve had both issues recently, enemy firing team up twice and firing team up when all are stunned.

    AI just used 2* BW AP steal twice which may well just lose me this match. This needs fixing as a priority.

    I got repeatedly stunned via a 3 star Spidey TU. And the extra ones have more web tiles so are longer.

    Can the developers, please address this bug! I just played a match where the enemy fired Loki’s illusions team up 12 DAMN times!

    I've been playing the game since the year it came out, so if anyone thinks using the TU multiple times may have been a thing I can confidently say it wasn't.

    I'll say that for the story outside of DDQ it can add a little extra challenge.

    But for DDQ I expect to steamroll that, not get caught in a battle with Loki Doc Ock Human Torch with a Puck TU where I can wait forever on the AIs turn because they shuffle the board at least twice, RNG into huge cascades and if they need just a little more AP for next turn TU SEVEN TIMES IN THE FIGHT!

    I really enjoyed using Polaris/BRB with the opponent being able to repeatedly use a Throg "Zip Zap Zip" TU every turn while they were stunned!

    Maybe they fired the community manager again. Imagine addressing your playerbase. :mrgreen:

    I just had the AI fire three Loki Illusions team-up in one match. And none of them resulted in a match, a la Quake's Green. I didn't know how to react.

    We are meant to be getting a new community manager in September - I think MPQBlaine is just a fill-in which perhaps explains the patchy amounts of information posted if they are covering this on top of their other job(s). The Devs otherwise gonna Dev.
