    Another character I have zero interest in, would have preferred you just made the original DD more accessible

    As someone said above, I’ll roster them but won’t use other than essential

    Please now can you announce when batch 3 of ascended are going to be released

    Maybe the worst character ever created in so many ways. Completely and makes no sense for continuity. Another 4* Dino that feeds no one and I am so sick of animal characters. This is not Marvel anymore. I have been here since day one and have invested in this game to support it, but I swear if the next character is some animal or anime ****, I think I’m done.

    Stop making new 4s who don't feed anyone, please.
    Poor Rex has been crying for six months now.

    If they insist on making cute/teen characters at least finish off the Runaways roster. Isn't there another guy with a pet raptor besides Getrude?

    At this point I'd even settle for more Young Avengers.

    I have seen Moon Girl requested a few times over the years (obviously before we had as many animal/dinosaur characters) so some people will probably be happy.

    I have an idea for the next 4* too - Goat Emperor Doom! Bonus points if they make him better than the 5* GED.

    Well I guess this was inevitable and I am happy to have a dancing Dino but maybe enough after this one with the wacky. Very strange no feeder again - I have Venom Dino covered but not yet champed so it isn't end of the world stuff but I thought all 5s were meant to have feeders moving forward?

    In general with the bloat in the 4 and 5* tier there should be NO new 4s who don't feed.
    In fact 4s should be made to double-feed instead.

    Absolutely. During the Retro Rewards Rush / Shardsgiving, we saw a number of people end up with double feeders as realignment happened, so much so I thought it would be standard:

    Kate/Doop for Kitty, TA & ME Hulks for Banner, Kingpin/Miles for Kingpin (since changed), Kate/Ronin for Clint, Colleen/IF for Shang, Worthy/Bucky for CAP IW, Polaris /Reptil(lol) for Havok, Jean/Jubilee for Jean, and Negasonic/Puck(lol lol) for Colossus. Granted, most of these were to put the "right" feeder in place and not undo the original one, but that plus the below puts 15 5* with double feeders (excluding the Secondary Feeders of Kingpin/Killmonger/Hela)

    Most importantly though, Deathlok, M'baku, Moondragon, Cosmo, Peni, and Silver Samurai: 6 4* that were released post feeder realignment all intentionally made to be a double feeder for a 5*.

    Of the last 10 releases, half have not been feeders, and half have become a second feeder for a classic 5*: Annihilus Torch was no feeder, then Cosmo/Moondragon/Samurai became a second feeder, then Mr Negative no feeder, then Peni also second feeding, then 3 in a row (Bong, SM:I, and Moon Girl) with no feeding.

    It's a really odd pattern to say the least, especially as thematically, Mr Negative (ish), SM:I (better), and Moon Girl (Dino Pals are best) would all fit with Venomrex, and would not be retro rewards.

    An ascended goat emperor would almost certainly be better than natural born Doom lol.

    No. Give me more Marvel weirdness. MORE!

    Just release serious alt 4* versions for loved and relevant characters such as Deadpool, magneto, Loki, young Groot, psyloche, Doom, etc... and please stop this

    The same raptor was transferred from Gert (who died) to Chase.

    To state the obvious, this isn't an "animal character," it's a team up of an animal and a human.

    As for the choice of this character at all, marvel's stable is HUGE and MPQ is well down into the D list. Getting someone from a new, active TV series should not be a surprise.

    Counter point: MPQ is well down the D list after skipping over many better known/well established/recognizable characters to get there. (Regardless of why those characters were skipped, they're not in MPQ)

    And this isn't just an animal/human team up... It's a dancing dinosaur and a child...

    They're on a show? Ok, I don't get it though. Is it a show for five year olds? (Maybe I'm just too old to get it)

    Some people like goofy/weird stuff, or kids riding dinosaurs, or shorts/suspenders combos. Those people hit the jackpot here.

    Some people might see this following the cat and be embarrassed to play the game. Which could spark a feeling of wanting to quit.

    I have no negative thoughts about anyone happy to have this character. (I'm still a Night Thrasher fan and he fights crime on a skate board...) I do have negative thoughts looking at this character though. It's just goofy looking. (My opinion)

    I'm not planning to quit myself, but if I'm playing the game and someone asks what I'm playing... I'm just going to put my phone away because I don't want them looking up the game and judging me based on the cat and whatever this is.

    Yeah it's a match 3 game... But I don't play any other match 3 games. My other entertainment apps are Sudoku and chess.

    I guess my point is... It's ok to like this character... But it's ok to really not like this character too.

    This, the first part at least. Unless favorited them, it generally takes us 2-3 years to max-champ a 4*, then an equivalent amount of time to champ them again (which unless the 4* will make a really good 5*, we're going to do.) Unless a 4 star has amazing stats, they are really only exciting if they're a feeder.

    Human Torch could have fed Kang (or Silver Surfer)
    Mister Negative could have fed any number of Spider-Man villians
    Spider-Man: India could have fed Spider-Man or Venomsaurus
    Doctor Bong could have fed... She Hulk, maybe?

    But anyway, please, give us feeders. It make the 5* tier much more accessible and that's necessary.

    We don't even have all of the Avengers (including three who are among the earliest members and one of whom is a founding member). classic X-Men (two from the All New. All Different team) or many iconic villains yet so I think it is a bit of a stretch to say that Marvel is down to "D" list characters.
