The next character after that is going to be Falcon, kamahl from my alliance was at pax and they announced it over there, personally i would prefer they made the winter soldier, pve needs new villains

According to the post, Daken doesn't rely on yellow tiles anymore for regeneration, it's blue now. I guess he's the closest to using all colors?

There's just no way you'd be leaving blue tiles up for the opponent to have a chance to collect them for ATU, not to mention your own ATU/Magnetic Field needs them too. Even in some hypothetically balanced world where 2 blue matches do not end up winning the game, it's likely still worse than yellow because yellow is only valuable to one person (lazy Thor), and while lazy Thor is incredibly powerful, he's still just one guy.

It also puts Daken in the odd position of leveling up a skill that isn't very good. Unless the Regen is at 5, he's at a higher risk of suffering from the self-imposed heat damage.
