Frankie and Shalla are not variants of the same character, or versions of a character from different earths, etc. They are two completely separate characters from the same universe. Only commonality is they had the same job. Should we have a game construct called "Herald of Galactus" with various skins, all having the same power set? Already have multiple heralds in game, so a bit late.

I would be down for this. I would always use Fire Lord. He was always my favorite herald.

Who is the guy with the horn? Airwalker? Firelord would be cool alo.

Anyway if we are having more playable Heralds then Terrax please!

Yeah, that's Gabriel the Air-Walker.

My memory is bad on him but wasn’t he also a robot after the original was killed?

You remember correctly!

Sounds perfect for a 3/5 release!

If you don't bring another charged tile generator, AND you don't bring a damage booster, AND you don't bring any AP to start with (from boosts or supports) she's actually pretty mid on the first few turns.

I'm actually somewhat afraid to share this, but the team to fear (and the team that will be 100% of your queue very shortly) is Nova/Immortal Hulk.

While Nova is airborne you can only target Hulk, who can't die. Meanwhile he's going to generate green for her (which he can't spend), so as soon as she lands she'll take off again. If he has the Gamma support this is even worse.

Again, apologies for sharing this. I'm sure somebody else would've figured it out eventually though!

This is one of the funniest teams I've ever run.

I left it up in sim (I think I had Ikaris as the third, with a purple support) and even after the nerf I'm still getting wipes. I haven't played a fight with them since then, but it must be doing something.

I used 4a5 Vulture as a third.

Yeah we talked about this one in chat quite a bit -- he's better on offense, because he generates green for you so you'll never run out. But he's just a little worse on defense because he has an active green, and the AI might choose to use his green over Frankie.

I'm trying your Ikaris team, and it's more swingy but faster since Ikaris does damage while airborne. I like it!

Yeah, you will occasionally see lower level players running 4* Ikaris/Immortal Hulk, and it works pretty well for them, but it's kind of terrible on defense when Ikaris only has 20k HP or whatever.

That one whale everyone always posts has him at 550 though, and hoo boy is that an unpleasant team to fight, especially during the weeks when he's 672. I imagine that player will do very well in sim with 550 Frankie/Ikaris/Hulk.

Haha that's manapig I think, see them regularly.

I would spend hard earned money on Manbearpig.

That's probably a different....thing...... moving on.

Manbearpig would have to be a 6*, dude killed Satan.
