BoyWonder1914 said: This misconception of Kamala's ability is frustrating me. KK's purple at 5 converts SEVEN BASIC TILES OF A CHOSEN COLOR to green. She doesn't "remove purple tiles", let alone all of them. So it only works that way if you CHOOSE purple. You can just as easily convert red or blue tiles, etc. This article also doesn't specify any details of this countdown tile. Will it constantly refresh at 1, or is it set to expire permanently after a certain amount of turns? Makes a big difference if you're talking about pairing her with C4rol or Coulson.

zodiac339 said: I hope traps count (otherwise, Ant Man is not as good a partner as he might have been). The one that will probably mess people up is web tiles. I was considering Spider Gwen as a potential partner, but while the stun from Teenage Kicks is cheap, webs that end up on purple tiles are neutral tiles rather than special tiles, so you have to find a way to get rid of them. After that, the question will be, how does locking tiles affect this passive? Do your friendly locked purple tiles count, or do they have to be unlocked to count? If they count while locked, will the passive still remove your special tiles when it activates, or does locking keep that frm happening?
Rick OShay said: 3Storm will not be as efficient as G4mora herself at ensuring all purples become a special tile. If you plan to double-cast storm's black, you would still be better off just dcasting Gamora's black instead. Simply match purples off until there are 8 or less on the board. Then cast Gamora black twice, make a simple non-purple match, and hope no others fall onto the board.What's the math that your move, plus the AI's turn drops no additional purple onto the board? Something close to 25%->35% of the time no purple drops in during these two turns? Certainly you can help your chances by stunning the enemies prior to all of this.Enemy teams who's strongest color is purple are in the most danger here. Pair G4mora with new Star-Lord (his yellow can actually be pretty awesome). Or XFW, XFDP, 5*IM blue, Mordo blue, or anyone else like KK that can reduce the non-friendly-special purple on the board.*Also, I do not believe that Traps will qualify as specials. But if they do, oh man.

And Squirrel Girl offers very complimentary colors if you actually put her on the team (am I the only fan?). Bring along a better purple user with these two, someone like St4r-Lord, who can cheapen all of your powers besides black, and the stun costs 4 blue, SL's purple to overwrite any pesky tile (even purple basics now become a CD), and then SG's yellow for 7. Beautiful!
Vhailorx said: Do charged tiles count as specials? If so, then SS' might be useful (though perhaps not even as useful as gamora's own). If they do not count as friendly, but are counted against the power, then anyone who makes purple specials could effectively disable gamora's black passive.

I believe Special tiles implies they have ownership by one team or the other. Therefore neutral tiles like charged, fortified, and web tiles are not 'special' tiles. The only special tiles are Countdown, Strike, Attack, Protect, and Invisibility. I believe Trap tiles are not 'special' tiles, but we need definition here.
Killians8 said: I imagine D3 is now freaking out with coding changes as we just threw out all these scenarios and questions regarding all the in game situations that will need to be thought out. Here's another. Does Gamora's check on her power trigger before Ant Man's? If so, not so great because he won't fill purple tiles before. If after, super great. It's probably the latter. Not sure if his trap tile happening first would end up over powered or not.
