There will be some overlap regardless when you make a team of 3 with Ms. Marvel anyway. Novelty =/= "good team" It's not a huge deal, but since character optimizations are a pretty strong theme in these topics, you want to have some legitimate reasons behind a character or team comp that you think is "good".

You just use what you think is the better ability of the same color for the specific situation you are in. Are you saying every good team combination in existence have zero overlap? Of course not. Most of the "good" team compositions involve 2 characters due to the way events work in the game. Thus, overlapping really doesn't even come into consideration.

Thor and Torch both have green as tertiary colors so again Thor will always tank green for Torch provided you place Thor in the more dominant position. Did you mean red and not green? If so, then this seems like it may be a valid strategy.

Also because he is so fragile, getting the green to power his flame often results in him taking too much damage. However, I didn't make roster room for Captain Marvel, so I'm a little biased. Also I find myself usually using Torch in random PVE when he's boosted, not as a PVP mainstay.
