It's the one we have been waiting for - yes Abigail Brand is god boosted! She is going to laser so many suckers from orbit! Personally - I am astonished to realise that I have every single 5* champed this Class! I don't know what to do with them all...apart from play Mighty Thor of course. I can see Crystal being a favourite too. I may also be that one guy with Moon Knight front-ish...

    Jane / Riri / Crystal I guess.
    Maybe some guest appearances from Elektra.

    I do really like Elektra I must say. If it becomes too much of a RiRi event that will spoil it as spamming her stun is like one of only 6 things the AI knows how to do and enjoys it immensely.

    I could see folks rotating that third slot based on who they like/have at a higher level, but it'll be 100% Jane/Riri.

    Jane / Riri / Emma is my speed team in shield sim, so I guess that’s what I’ll use here.

    May see a lot moon knight if chasm is still everywhere.

    Lol no.
    Moonie takes 84 years to do anything.

    He does but I sorta like him and also RiRi is gonna be a major pain, so no stun sounds good.

    Oh right he works against riri too. Hm.

    Moony is more like a backup fighter, not the main

    Well I'm screwed,

    I have 5 of them and none of them are finished. Hit-Monkey is the most with 7 covers. Kamala has 6 covers. Elektra has 4. Abilgail has 4. Then Arcade has 1. Despite Arcade being the one I actually I really wanted to use boosted.

    Arcade, Emma for the win

    I'm still actively trying to find a way to make MK work. I want to use him... It's just not reasonable to do so.

    It's 100% related to his stun immunity allowing you to actually take your turn with chasm and riri, not because he is any good. There are some good charge-spammers in this list that will triple your AP accrual, which may be a good enough accelerant to have him actually fire a power before end of match...

    His black and green aren't actually terrible (purple sort of is) but he is a tough sell if the other side aren't all stun-ny.

    So with the ambiguous time scale of "sometime in the evening of 21st" for Chasm's nerf hitting - do we need to put him back in this equation? Are there going to be two different versions of Chasm running in this event?!?!?!?!

    Well, in a rare example of good timing I champed MK today, so I'm certainly going to give him a go.

    The start-of-match stun is potentially reason enough to run him. I think you're going to see him quite a lot, his nerf doesn't seem THAT detrimental to tbh.

    But it brings up the question of whether old Chasm is hard-coded into the event or he gets replaced by new Chasm after the event starts? This will be them doing a nerf at the same time the character was going to be boosted so is gonna be weird if his powers change after the event starts.

  • Bowgentle

    Boosts are hardcoded, character stats are not.

    Right, so he will change then. This could get interesting...
