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

    No supports give starting Blue AP.

    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 got you @dianetics

    "What power you play with blue. Guessing green eggs and ham for breakfast... then switch to Omega Red and May."

    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.....

    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.

    Agree, the board will play the biggest role in deciding the color I pick with the blue, the characters are second. The AC pvp especially since I'm usually choosing a color with at least one critical on the board.

    Wasn't having much success in the AC pvp running her with any of the boosted characters until I tried out May Parker. Idk what makes them pair well together, I've never been good at that, but they just work. Totem support on May, Power Stone on Agatha, and Leap Frog on AC.

    Thanks for info. Got up to 23k cp so will at least spend 3k be what 120 pulls. Hope I get her to 13 covers

    Hell at least I will give me a few may cover. Think what 13 shards per pull so at least 2 more levels to may. .. that should push her to 500 ...

    Though I really don't use the may Emma combo much anymore. Besides on boss battles

    Is aunt may 5 star. Emma really that great anymore

    Then again my play time mostly is just doing the daily quest 30 mins or less.

    It's hard to describe how fun Agatha is to have on your team. There are many different ways to play her and it just depends on who you team her with and what your preference is. I was running her 5/3/5 thinking her blue was just ok but it is WAY better than ok, IMHO. I've switched to 3/5/5 and see how that goes.

    Also, for any who thought she wouldn't get really good at higher levels, she does. Especially when boosted (which goes without saying). That blue can hit like a ton of bricks. And if she tanks and has Fantasticar on, she can fire her blue and keep hitting, and hitting and hitting....

    Absolutely love this character. She is so much fun. Started her with Apoc and brb and it was fun and effective, but once I figured out matches don’t do damage with her purple repeaters , I switched to Math or and Colossus and it’s my favorite team.

    That's more than 1 in 5 so over 20%?

    Slidecage should have used some of that math Jinx is so excited about.

    🤣 I got 2 out of 18 pulls so less than average, but 5 of the 4* pulls led to a champ level for other 5s. I'll take that.

    When teammates make matches, it doesn't seem to show the increase in their match damage from her yellow when clicking the character portrait I noticed.

    Is there a certain go to support everyone's using for her ?

    Guess so I probably get her up to 13 covers when she goes into ll ... 9 covers not bad. Could really not used the 11 witch covers. I don't think I even use witch anymore . Then again could be worse and ended with 5 like doom

    I think she is like 335. 5 on yellow
