I think that with a lot of people in 5* land and having Alliance members not at there roster level there are still some good team ups you can send.

Black Widow (Modern): Widow's Sting
5 turns of stun is very powerful at any tier of play .

Juggernaut (Classic): Unstoppable Crash
Destroying 16 random tiles for 6 can cascade make for a lot of matches and for 5* that can be good damage and needed resources.

Black Widow (Original): Aggressive Recon
At 3 or 5 covers you are getting a lot of resources out of the enemy hands and into yours.

The Punisher (Dark Reign): Retribution
40% of a 5* can be 16k+ damage that beats out most of what the 5* can do and it only costs 8.

Storm (Classic): Wind Storm
I like Widow's Sting better but it is still a nice 4 turn stun.

Scarlet Witch (Wanda Maximoff): Reality Crush
This one is not as good as Widow's Sting or Wind Storm with its 14 cost but that 5 turn stun can be a life saver.

Magneto (Classic): Polarizing Force
Good bored shake and gets all the other team up out of the way so you can get the AP you want.

Loki (Dark Reign): Trickery and Illusions
Trickery can be good vs the right people but some what limited.
Illusions is also unreliable but with a little luck can be a lot of resources.

Deadpool (It's Me, Deadpool!): WHALES! WHALES! WHALES!
End the match for 14 team up AP need I say more?

Colossus (Classic): Fastball Special
Some of you may be saying why would I ever want that. It can save one of your people a lot of damage and you get one of your 5* powers after one turn.
You will still need to use it with the right people to make it good but it can be a smart move at the right time.



There are a few more that can be of use so tell me what you like to get as a 5* player from your 1-3* Alliance members.

    Spiderman (Original): Spectacular Strategy
    2 criticals for 8AP can do crazy things with 5* match damage. If there's some way that you can happen to generate web tiles even though there is no 5* to do this you can get 4 criticals for 8AP.

    what? no fist listed? 5 ap to accelerate black can be used by many 5s. OML, SS, GG, etc. not to mention the cascade potential

    ps. and a fast return to boot

    1* or 3* Storm can be good too. Either board shake and AP generation, or attack tiles that can be used with OML or PHX strikes.

    mBW blue and Loki black are my personal favorites (from 1-3*s; GR black is also awesome).

    2* Magneto's red is pretty good. Defend it for one turn, reap a 5x5 square of free AP

    Captain Marvel Ehh
    Magneto Red and blue good for board shake
    The Punisher Noop

    Beast Green you only get the Board shake if you have a blue speciel tile out
    Scarlet Witch Green is not worth a slot as a team up
    The Hood Black there are 2 people that have CD's you want to use it on Phoenix and GG who has his own way of doing that
    Thor Red is not very good at cascades with only 3 tiles
    Spider-Man Blue is only a one turn stun and that is only ok
    Captain Marvel Black stuns for 2 turns and if you like Spider-man blue then this should be listed too
    Magneto Blue does not make matches very often so I would not list it as a board shake
    The Punisher Red I do not know how any one would not like this

    Three. IM40. Even at level 3 it can do 3 tiles, which is exactly how many you'd need.

    I'm pretty sure he means 3* IM40's Recharge. House Party Protocol might sometimes be more useful for its protection, so you would like to keep the countdown tiles on the board longer. Still, 5* IM could be another character benefiting from Intimidation... Another one which comes to my mind is 3* Steve.
