    What is the "m'Thor" thing about anyway? I guess this is a line nickname thing or something? It is sort of really annoying to me for some reason, lol!

    It's so that people know they are referring to the 5*MightyThor vs other Thors. There too many of them to just say "Thor". It is very helpful to know which specific character is being discussed.

    Oh, I just call her Jane. I know there is a 4 version but nobody uses that one.

    Yeah, I'm seeing very few mthor teams this pvp and the ones I do are gambit fodder. With half thor fueling him red on top of his own passive she doesn't last long.

    Also half thor and a big ascended juggernaut can one shot her and a big dr strange will blast her if she gets enough ap to start firing powers. This boost week is very anti Jane.

    It's like the devs saw all the conversation about being sick of seeing her in pvp, and were like, have a week without her on us.

    The boost list is still largely chronological for 5s (and I think 4s, but I’m not tracking it closely).

    They have mixed it up a little but BP, Strange, Gambit and Thor were all released within a year of each other. It was also when 5s were rarer. Thor immediately followed Gambit. (The Hellfire boost list moved things around a bit.)

    Anyway they aren’t dynamically responding to player concerns imo.

    I was mostly joking on that last comment

    Yeah, this is why I said this must be trolling. The same guy creates a nerf whoever is popular at the time thread and then disappears into the bushes like Homer Simpson while everyone else argues.

    How about no?

    I have to say, I like the hashtag "ChasmDidNothingWrong," despite the fact that I thoroughly disagree with it. If Chasm wasn't nerfed I probably wouldn't still be playing, he sucked all the life out of this game and was boring as heck to fight.

    Maybe he's a Chasm fan.

    I think that's just part of the trolling. Saying characters like kang should be Nerfed but chasm was just fine. Next topic will be Nerf wasp.

    I'm still here frens, pretty sure trolling is against the site rules so I would never do that.

    Anyway, back on topic, I would gladly hear everyone thoughts on why she shouldn't be nerfed, I can give mine on why she should considering she's the most powerful character in the game and no one else comes even close, the only thing that kept her at bay after release was Chasm and after the nerf he has been found dead in a ditch in 2v2 so she has been free to run rampant since.

    • Passive and on demand board shake thanks to her blue passive.
    • Charged tiles allow her to exponentially accelerate her ap gain.
    • Three cheap powers.
    • Best anti special tiles character, there is no space for characters that depend on keeping special tiles on the board to do damage or increase their utility when she's around, especially when the devs treat the fortified status as a 95 in their power budget scale.
    • Scaling red single target nuke that gets even better the longest the match it goes on.
    • Her yellow is a pseudo aoe that turns into massive damage single target nuke with little to no downsides.
    • Above average match damage and hp for a character that does this much.
    • And this is a personal one but her turn takes longer on average than most other characters.

    With that said, lets keep this thread free of ad hominem attacks and focus on the important things, like nerfing mThor.

    No. That’s stupid. You’re welcome.

    Shaw's passive purple shuts her down pretty effectively actually, even for a 280s level 4*. he eats her passive charge tiles every turn so the shake never really happens. This works way better than Cosmo.
