Most idiotic 3 star champion cover?

Which cover reward is the most idiotic/nonsensical?

I was championing a 2 star thor, in hopes of boosting my 3 star thor, in hopes of getting a cover for my 4 star thor. And after just checking I realized that Thor gives Red Hulk covers, what the h? Then I checked Hulk and She Hulk and they gives covers for troll hulk, what a mix-up. At least one should give red hulk instead...

    The difference being Red Hulk is one of the best characters in the game and 4* Thor is so-so? Its only really a problem if you already have him max covered.

    Vision rewarding Cyclops covers is a bit more mind boggling.

    The champion covers are sometimes characters that work well together in the game. Iron First gives you Hulkbuster, for example. So in that sense, 3* Thor giving you Rulk makes sense. Their yellow and purple powers both accelerate green for Hammer & Anvil. Rulk's red is passive, so might as well let Thor use the red AP.

    Ragnarok and X-23 were both artificially created.

    The one I don't get is Black Panther and Reed Richards. Same colors, I guess.

    I believe BP & Reed are Illuminati buddies

    Black Panther was actually introduced in a Fantastic Four comic as well.

    I Believe Black Panther has also served as Mr Fantastic's replacement at some Points in the Fantastic Four too...

    None of the rest of these examples matter in a world where:

    1. Totally Abysmal Hulk exists.
    2. Totally Abysmal Hulk is actually considered a "reward".
    3. There are 3* characters that give Totally Abysmal Hulk as a "reward".

    Were we blood relation of the developers we could have them legally committed to a psychiatric care facility for treatment of this derangement. A little Shock Therapy might be warranted here.

    Number 3 is actually incorrect. When the champion system launched Squirrel Girl was shown to give Cho covers as a reward, but that was an error and was fixed early - she is actually giving out Ant-Man covers.
    But two characters giving out Cho covers is also too many IMO...

    Actually, he didn't say that there are three characters that give him as a reward, but [a certain amount of] 3 star.png characters. So he is correct.

    vision -- EYES -- cyclops (plus, redflag.pngyellowflag.pngblueflag.png)

    The most groan-worthy to me goes to icon_thor.png -> icon_redhulk.png ('cause he's Thunderbolt Ross!)

    icon_squirrelgirl.png -> icon_antman.png is a bit of a mystery. They both have pets? That bite people? Maybe there's some tie in with the comics.
