    I'm guessing the increased odds for 3* Agatha did not end because the next release was a 2* (for Headpool) instead of the usual 4*. If that's the case, chuck this as a one-off as things should return to normal next season.

    Possibly?

    I can see how they might decide to give us a hand on new 3s, to help with dilution, by making them more likely for 4 weeks.

    They probably just forgot to turn off the increased odds.

    Honestly, it could be any one or all of these possibilities. Since we may never get a direct answer, it's all conjecture.

    I'm all for extending the timeframe of the increased odds, to help with dilution and such, but that also runs counter to their offers to sell more covers of the new releases. Who knows lol

    This is a bit crazy. I was going to post a turn 0 win with her, but we can no longer post video on the forums.

    Agatha and her blue is broken. I have turn 0'd 5 times with my opponents all being god boosted.
    With the right supports and team comp you will almost always gain enough ap to blow out the enemy on turn 1 or 2.

    I seem to rarely get a match-3 straight out the gate with her blue power. Even firing it twice seems to get me AP only like half the time. It almost always sets up a match, but then the turn moves on, so that's not winfinite.

    Even with 9 blue AP (is that even possible?) I think you're not going to get a first turn blue AP without a match a significant amount of the time.

    I can fire it twice first turn. I have recorded 3 first turn wins and 3 2nd turns wins. The team I am using doesn't seem to go past 4 turns. I have no defensive wins though. So there is that

    And what supports are those 😂

    Really though I spent around 2400 cp to get them to 13 cover used them a few times and went right back to 5 star aunt may and Emma. Helps my may getting up to 520

    It depends on the required character on your team for support composition.

    So it doesn’t work for pick-2? I’m still liking for a good pick 2 for the 5* essential node.

    It does work, just don't expect defensive wins.

    Defensive wins aren't a huge factor in PvE.

    I'm talking about first turns infinite for PvP. I'm not really using her yet in PvE.

    I understand, but Daredevil, to whom you replied, was talking about pick-2 in PvE.

    Daredevil, I've used her a little in PvE. She's effective, but there are faster teams than ones based around Agatha.

    I appreciate that. PVP, it’s mostly god boosted characters every week that I see personally. I’m curious about the Agatha team that disposes of them in two turns because I imagine health pools are similar in pve. Although now that I think about it they may be bigger in pve.

    I just champed her and now I'm wondering if she should have stayed at level 250? Do you guys keep her underleveled or do you champ her?

    she is very versatile.
    you need to figure out where she fits in your roster.

    Totally depends on your roster and how you choose to deploy her, but I champed her and I'm happy I did.

    She works best when she doesn't tank, but her blue and purple absolutely go up in power with levels and they're both worth using, particularly with certain teams.

    Ideally you can put her with someone who tanks her colors over her, but I wouldn't say she's actually bad when she tanks, just not optimal.

    Your roster is beyond mine, so a baby champ isn't going to butt up much against my 550 4a5 Juggernaut. But, yes, she can be played different ways and how high you want her will depend on your choice and roster.
