    I would like to see Heroic events again. Loaners could be used to allow players who don’t have the required characters rostered to play.

    Alrighty, I think I'm losing steam in my desire to convince people that there are good options out there.

    However! I most recently ascended 2 characters, 1 that I knew would be good and fun (Betsy) but 1 on a whim while trying to counter Frank (Throg). And I'll be damned if both of these characters can't shut down all of the current meta, some teams very, very convincingly so. Figured Id best make some fun out of it and share.

    That said, I did and typed ALL of this from my phone, and most of it while holding a newborn (she was asleep, Im not neglectful). So cut me some slack, it was a pain, but hopefully someone gets some value out of it, and if so, dont be shy, like the post or ask questions or somethin. Let us know who else you might be having trouble with and maybe spark some interest. I can tell you Galactate and Ghost6 are comin, and they can be quite annoying to fight at high levels.

    I also added some random notes at the end just in case you like to read (I don't). Happy swiping.

    For MThorlaris etc.:

    For Maymor, Juggy or Mbaku:

    For JuggySam:

    For Frankie and friends:

    Notes:

    • Yes, Silversurfers blackhole will detonate and kill while airborne.
    • Throg is still good at 4star, he just doesn't do the murdering.
    • No more debate about keeping Betsy at 4. Her pink is still amazing at 5 but her red and yellow are tje bees knees at 5. Yellow regularly one shots anyone.
    • These teams aren't exclusive to the teams they are assigned to here, maybe try some ship out.
    • Yes, Magik4 is amazing, especially with Betsy, but you can definitely swap her out with Avalon if you got em high enough (likely the new Ironfist also).
    • There is still a decent amount more to get out of these 2, but I only have handful ascended and so much time.
    • Throg, Blackknight and Sam were way too close to being ridiculous, but BKs protects spawn after Sam's buff AND his charged tiles are created after Throg destroys everything... a massive shame and design failure. BK still very fun with Throg and ascended would be nasty with Betsy.
    • Sorry if pick2 is your jam, all of the fun is in pick3.
    • Someone please remind the dev team they were in the middle of balancing a lot of characters, this must continue. At least the buffs. Welcome new dev team!
    • Many thanks for reading or participating.

    I've had Betsy ascended for a long time now and absolutely agree..... She can play an integral role in countering most meta teams as she's such a nuke, especially with an ascended HagAtha. I just use Shaw to shut down Jane and Electro to help **** down Juggs and Betsy wipes them out
