See, my first instinct would be to rate that as an outlier and not let it influence the data too heavily. But as said, I'm no statistician.

With boosts, has a trivial win by turn 4. 2. Devil Dinosaur. Highest Health, not bad damage. 3. Blade. Lots of Strike Tiles. 4. Colossus. Okay AOE Attack, half-decent defense. 5. Ms. Marvel. 2* character through and through 6. Doctor Octopus. Only his Passive is interesting. Overpriced powers.

Juggernaut, +4 Theme song: I’ll Make A Man Out Of You (Donny Osmond)But you can bet before we're through Mister, I'll make a man out of you Also jumping up four spots is Juggernaut, who we called severely underrated in the last version of rankings. And while +4 is the third-biggest gain on the list, finally giving old Juggs his due as the best 1* in the game, it's frankly pretty shocking that he hasn't improved more, considering how devastating he was in both Balance of Power and Combined Arms. When buffed to 270 he has the highest health in the game (over 20k!) and does nearly 6k damage with a cheap red that makes most opponents reach for the skip button. Speaking of Balance of Power and Combined Arms, here’s a fun little trick for those events: the difference between a level 101 and a level 140 Juggernaut is not that substantial (in BoP it's zero, since everyone is buffed to 270). But the difference in healing time is crazy; a level 1 Juggernaut will go from downed to full health in 35 minutes as compared to nearly 5 hours for level 40, and Headbutt just about one-shots squishy dangerous characters like OBW, Hood, and Human Torch. Now, one might make the argument that BoP-style events only come around once a month or so, and he has little utility elsewhere, but you could make the same argument for many of the worst 3* characters. And, like his character overall, his green might be the most underrated in the game, as it provides heavy board shake and generates AP via cascades. You've probably seen multiple PvE events where Juggernaut went green and magically got enough AP to then Headbutt you to oblivion -- this isn't the AI cheating, that's just how good Unstoppable Crash is. If roster diversity really is a goal for the developers (and we have no reason to think that it isn't), he's likely to get even better as more events catering to 1*s are brought online. Speed: medium Sustainability: low Power: medium Red: good Green: good Recommended build: 5/5.

Moonstone, even Theme song: Sex Sells (Benefit)Sex sells Every night and day It will be this way Sex sells With a red power that's too expensive and unreliable, a black power that costs twice as much as it should, and a purple power that's just plain...weird, there's a good case to be made that the only good reason to keep Moonstone on your roster is that she's probably the most attractive character in the game. Sadly, looks won't get you far -- she's got decent health for a 2*, but she's never buffed, and both red and purple are severely outclassed at the 2* level by several other powers. Still, I must say that I'm surprised she ranked below Bullseye, who's been a mainstay of the bottom five for quite some time now. Speed: low Sustainability: low Power: low Red: fair Purple: fair Black: poor Recommended build: 5/5/3; black is a really horrible, unplayable power.40. Bullseye, +4
