We have dev confirmation that Bucky is next up in the DDQ, so let's start the speculation about who he might fight!
I saw someone mention Black Panther, and while that would be Movie accurate I don't Think it would make an exciting fight. Personally, I Think Grey Suit Black Widow could work well - there's the sniper motif, and there is some rivalry between the two in the MCU too. Heck, they might even go with the fivestar Widow, who knows?
My Buky is 4/4/3 and level 188 at the moment, I am Confident he'll get the job done no matter who he faces.

    If his enemy is also a 4*-character, I could imagine that Bucky will face War Machine.

    One of the Iron Man variants would make sense.

    One of the Round 8 bosses from Boss Rush is my guess. These LTs are getting to easy to get.

    Bucky is purple/blue/red. They've usually had at least one color overlap, so Black Panther is a possibility, but a longshot one (IMO).

    I think the thought of GSBW, War Machine, or Battery Man is a good set of ideas - two colors overlap no matter what, there's some measure of tie in to either theme or movie, and (if it's against Battery Man), there's a single devastating power that you have to block at all costs.

    I think War Machine makes a lot of sense in theme and two matching colors. Definitely someone on the other side in MCU Civil War.

    I like that guess. Thematic, 2 colour. Not enemies, but friends. Sticks to the Civil War theme.

    icon_blackpanther.png it is!

    I'm not optimistic with my 3/1/0. I'll wait and see what everyone else's experience is before even attempting.

    Tried a couple of times with my 1/1/1 but that ain't happening.

    I just won it using a level 168 Winter Solider with 2 purpleflag.png 5 redflag.png . I boosted purple and red. I tried to deny yellow and black while building red. He got off one Rage of the Panther and I got off two Moving Target. I used Precision Shot to match my countdown tiles, mainly.

    won with lvl 155 5/1/3

    Deny yellow and black. The strike tile damage will kill you fast so use your purple on yellow tiles to destroy his ap if you must.

    3/5/5, 120, no boosts, 1 shot. Deny black/yellow, launch red when available, use purple to drain his black

    Managed it on my second attempt without any boosts. Since my Bucky`s build is 1/2/5 (level 172) my strategy was to deny black and gather red as soon as possible. Due to a few lucky cascades BP was able to use his "Rage of the Panther" which has nearly downed me (only 1.5k health was left). But thanks to Bucky`s "Precision Shot" I was able to launch the "Moving Target". I matched the red cd tile quickly away and downed BP immediately.

    Beat icon_blackpanther.png 5/1/4, lvl 90. No boosts.

    Mine is 1/1/3 at max capped level. Gave it a try w/o boosts but I don't think it will be too likely even with boosting.

    On the bright side, a Taco Token from today gave me one of the other 4*s in the Taco Vault, Punisher MAX Green.

    My 2/0/1 level 90 isn't getting it done. If that changes I'll update of course, but so far looks like this one requires some respectable covers to complete.

    I think my 2/0/2 level 90 will watch from the sidelines unless I see someone else get it with similar
