    With Gamora boosted, I figured it was a worthy PSA to let yall know 3* doom’s purple traps count towards Deadliest Woman. My doom is ascended to 4* and Gamora is 5, so I guess that is relevant to this thread.

    Excellent find! In your experience does her passive actually fire more than once per round?

    Not once per round, it clears off all the purple when it fires and only checks to fire at the start of your turn. If you’re in a pick 3 situation bring Sersi and remove purple from the board.

    All traps work btw, doom just puts on on purple every round.

    I ascended 4* Blade this morning and remembered to grab before and after shots this time. No change at all on black, rest of the numbers are basically doubled.

    @JoeHandle was curious about Sandman. Level 453 looks like this:

    Nice! More than double the 370 #s, and his AP costs remain the same. He'sdefeinitely on the short list.

    This is pretty good...lvl573 after boost:

    Ascended Honey Badger is definitely a winner! I pair her with ascended Angela (also a winner even) and they’re pretty nasty together.

    Laura has seemed promising ... I have hope for 3Jubilee. Very effective as a 3, hope that carries to higher tiers.

    Yeah I would like to ascend vampire jubilee as well.

    Not sure anyone is targeting this guy, but I realized I hadn't posted him. Some numbers do change at 5*. Numbers are unboosted -- expect them to multiply by 2.5 or so with the boost.

    That’s interesting to see. I like him with Hela, killing his doom bots triggers her special increase passive. 3* Jubilee also does a percent increase to attack tiles, I like them together with one of the carnage’s too.

    The damage on his black will be pretty significant without the technologist boost, which is probably good because the boost is lowered. Also he creates half as many attack tiles but they're a lot stronger.

    Has anyone managed to ascend Devpool to a 4 yet? I realize everyone is focused on getting to a 5 but I’m curious if anything changes at that point (kind of like 3may getting better at a 4). The 5 numbers are also of interest.

    The low-level Penance stare ability, the super fast healing, the all-affiliations….green is random but pretty good….purple boost/nerf.

    He seems like a pretty solid target.

    Not here ... just maxed the first 3* copy. So halfway there!

    Wouldn't be surprised to see him turn up in a monthly vault. Some recent 3* releases have.

    I am, thanks for sharing. Have him maxed and duped, 80something covers to go.

    Took a detour ascend Nova to exploit the Nova release (done!), then Fury (only needed 2 covers), now back to Shaw (4 covers to go). Then Namor (vanity project), then iDoom (have loved his mechanism since release!)

    Yep. Green appears to be the same (damage/healing numbers increase for the CD tiles obviously).

    That purple could be an amazing power. Bring the 2 purple supports and 4 with ya and you got 16. Could bring a 632,973 health juggs to 164,573 with him having no way of healing past that. Bring a red support on your own juggs and enemy juggs down on turn 0. Not a turn 0 win necessarily but damn near.

    Devpool can only target each enemy (and ally) once with his purple.

    It's still a lot of damage if you point it at the right enemy though!

    Oh I was reading "not more than twice" for some reason.
