    Running her 535.

    Since blue at 3 doesn't change the amount of tiles changed on the board. With enough blue you can infinite really quickly. I had about 10 or so PvPs where my opponents never got a second turn.

    The good thing is that she's so versatile with the build....her blue is probably my fave ability of hers because when it pops off it REALLY pops off

    I really like it too. It's a fun power.

    Why you only going to spend 2200 out of 22000?

    I'd pull in her store since Switch is a solid 5 star and Doom is due for a buff (esp since he's the villain going forward in Marvel movies). Also you get more covers for her now while she spends lots of time in latest (and boosted). To be honest, I'd spend more than 80 pulls if I were you unless you already got 9+ covers of her from retro rewards.

    I got witch around 460 and think doom 454

    That is why not sure to blow the cp or wait till Jan

    Those in all now I got
    The 1 453 The others are around 10 covers

    With I got 2 covers on her now. Maybe spend 2000 cp. See how that goes. If great then spend up to another 2000.. doubt it goes well. Last 3 pulls of ll

    50 pulls
    2
    2
    ,3

    7 out 150 pulls sucked. Few times I was pulling 22 before got a 5

    120 to 130 pulls to get her champed +1. Took way more cp than I would've liked, but mission accomplished and added 7 and 5 covers to switch and the evil dr.

    I spent 1,000 CP trying to cover her yesterday. Zero Agatha covers. 3 Witch, and 1 Doom. I am sad.

    I'm too lazy to check but what supports would give Agatha a chance for blue?

    No supports give starting Blue AP.

    Went unshielded overnight after climbing to first place in my slice with her and an unboosted partner in the Nova PvP.
    Yeah she is pretty good.

    UNLESS! You run Krakoa with a mutant who has blue as their strongest color (Polaris, Beast4 etc). Then you will start with 4 blue, and it's guaranteed, none of this percentage chance nonsense.

    Wonder if her with Polaris and beta be a good team. Since beta keeps making blue

    What power you play with blue. Guessing green

    I think he's just asking what color you're chasing with her blue, and he's guessing you would pick green. Make green tiles to make green matches and get the extra percentage damage to the enemy team.

    In the team he mentioned (Polaris, Beta Ray Bill, and Agatha) making green would of course help BRB use his Scuttlebutt power more. I might just be looking to make tiles that matched with colors that had protects on them to maximize the recycling of AP plus extra protects from Polaris, though.

    Also, you would possibly run out of basic tiles to convert fairly quickly with this team.....

    Why not just chase blue and stun lock the team on turn 1 or 2?
    If you have excess blue then when Agathas blue turns into a nuke then blow up the dangerous foe.
    You literally have to do nothing but make blue stun make more blue and blue and blue...then wait for the power change to a nuke. Agatha is already doing 30-60k with her blue often.
    So why choose green and slow the engine down?
    I am beside myself trying to figure it out.

    I mean I guess you all are very good Slidecage translators...so thank you I guess?

    Put it this way if I play the blue power. What color should I pick

    Blue because it feeds itself.

    Sersi's green cannot choose green because it is too strong.

    Right now her blue for 3 blue is WAY TOO STRONG.

    Like a Black Lotus turn 1 in MTG

    Totally depends on the scenario (board setup and team). I usually go blue so I can create more blue, then create more blue... and more blue, I believe this might be what Dianetics was recommending also?

    Assuming you're using her and she isn't there as a full support, the board will often tell me something different, IE: if there is a lot of one color on the board, I use 3 blue to create more of that color, which in turn causes matches in that color. For me the random cascades provide more value than chasing one specific color. You should also have other characters on your team who are helping her, so if you have Shang, you would rather chase red and pink to use his powers over getting the benefit of her blue. Maybe that's just me though.

    If there isn't anything special going on, I usually go blue and pink, maybe black if they have special tiles. She is one of those characters that makes you think and is puzzle-y, a very well designed character.

    I hold on for blue always. There is no reason to actually choose another color if you can get free matche 3's for blue. Then you get another cast for free.
    If not then you match a blue and try it next turn...
    When using her, she boosts match damage so there is almost no reason to choose another color for a cast when she can just increase the match damage.
