At the time Gravity warp was a good damage dealer becuase most 2* were not throwing out special tiles except Daken and Wolvie. No one really used Daken so if I was facing an occasional wolvie. Most of the time it was Thor/OBW/Ares. I walways thought she had promise as a rainbow combination with Ares/Thor. I would use her red and purple and use Ares/Thor yellow and green. She was horrible on defense. I felt like I put a big bullseye in PVP saying free points. Her red can be awsome, her purple decent, her black just cost's too much and you have no control. Overall she was about 15 degrees off being a very good character. Lower the cost of black, and let the player choose which special tile to warp she would be very solid. Tweek her and she will be good. As is when she is buffed in PVE just bring Daken and she is usless.

If you can please post it here! Thank you for the challenge! I played with my Moonstone and Iron Man Model 40 in the Hulk event this morning and snagged these screenshots. Not only did I steal Wolverine's Recovery tile, but I also used Gravity Warp to set up match-4 Yellows to get him to charge it I'll be the first to admit that this is not the most practical strategy, but boy was it satisfying. (the look on his face!) We've been really enjoying this conversation in the office and I certainly didn't expect my off-the-cuff Q/A response to be so controversial. So, let me qualify my answer by saying: "No, she is not a top-tier character, but I think she's a little bit better than folks give her credit for." I kind of want to make T-shirts that say 'I think Moonstone is underrated.' I challenge anyone to find the craziest tile to steal with Moonstone, lets see 'em!

lukewin wrote: Haven't read thru whole thread. Can't participate in challenge, no Moonstone. The devs aren't off by saying moonstone is undervalued and under rated. Look at the question. It's basically asking who is the best of the worst. All the characters that are used / valued can't be considered as an answer. A lot of the underused characters are horrible offensively, so they can't be considered. I think if the question was changed, the devs wouldn't seem so out of touch. Who is the best of the worst? Moonstone. Decent answer. Who is undervalued and under rated? Moonstone is undervalued and underrated, also her purple is good for dealing with special tiles and you can run her with IM40. The devs are NUTS!!!! MOONSTONE!?!?!?!

It was 70 degrees yesterday and clear skies. Do you have any idea how the perception of weather can influence a persons reactions? I'm going to start 3 threads and post in others that you, lady, have no idea what constitutes A PRETTY DAY!!!!!!!!! The little old lady cries. The end!
