This isn't working out too well for the PvE event, naturally, but you basically lose Thor or Sentry's yellow if Recharge isn't maxed in a PvP event and that's quite crippling.

With that logic it would be better to build him 5/3/5. At least you would make red useful and reduce the red AP drain and blue at 3 is enough to reduce the drain as well, and lets' face it, you are never going to cast blue. It's too bad yellow doesn't give you 3 green each tile, then you could at least use it, but you have made me rethink my IM40 Phantron. I should probably just level him since he's buffed every damn tournament.

I guess 5/3/5 would be better because the blue is more useless compared to the red. You want to keep recharge low if you actually want to use him, but if you don't plan on using him then you want to have Recharge maxed to avoid it from being used in the presence of Thor/Sentry. In an event like Heavy Metal I'm not planning for my IM40 to do anything at all as long as Thor is around, so I definitely don't want him to fire off a Recharge on defense instead of Thunder Strike.
