The pair of them make for an annoying team to fight against in PVP; Fist keeps bleeding you every turn with his free attack tile, and Cage slows you down with his free protect tile. Plus the black acceleration could lead to a nasty 1-2 punch from Cage if it cascades enough, and Cage's yellow nuke is always looming. When you're playing with them, your goal is to get 5 12 and then you can punch, punch, punch just about anyone in 3* land to death in one turn. 3* Torch is kind of mediocre even when he's boosted. He's kind of squishy, his black & green are so-so, and his red just doesn't pack the punch that Cyclops, Steve, or IM40's do.

Green is his real way to shine though Back when I was in 3* land I used to team up Torch with either Iron Man 40 (Before his respec, but he could still generate red and green AP for Torch) or Captain Marvel. Both act as meat Shields for Torch and can generate AP for him to use his Powers. Daken is Another good one - he can tank black and the strike tiles help Torch do more damage.
