The thought of giving the enemy team 6 attack tiles does not excite me one bit. Red is so costly on the other hand... it'd better be a one hit KO move. Sitting at 3/3/3 with 3 more covers in the waiting... I'll have to make a decision soon

The red damage is obscene in the right team composition, whereas the green damage doesn't ever go up (and is still respectable for 9 green, sheesh). Only difference is 2 strike tiles (or 2 strike and 2 protect, if you're saving up for Loki). In either case, you're going to be very hard to kill. Other option for shenanigans is Loki/Patch/Iron Man Mk40 - get 12 yellow, blast your recharge, use the red you just acquired to instant-kill someone on their team now that IM40 isn't probably taking up red. I still prefer the former team, but truthfully they're somewhat interchangeable playstyles (referring to swapping IM40 with GSBW) - one ramps via yellow into slam dunking, the other is more gradual with Patch eating up all the hits, before violently exploding. I don't like having an unused color though, so I think I'd rather go with the IM40 build.
