    I think it saved my vote. I think.
  • If you've voted already, and today's change to Black Panther causes you to change your vote, or if you want to change your vote in any other way, please either post here, or leave a note for me on the sheet, with a different colored background so I notice it.

    Added my vote. I like utility. Pure damage types usually bore me.
  • Added my ...2 nickels worth (I would have said two cents, but we banished the penny some time ago)

    purely subjective, based on my play style, preferences, and personal bias
  • In case there's any confusion, please ignore the existence of SuperThor. Rank only 2* Thor and pretend SuperThor does not exist at all when you consider teams that might otherwise benefit from having him in it.
  • Is there a reason people insist on entering their own names for characters, when the sheet explicitly says to copy and paste the ones that are already in use? Compiling rankings is quite a lot of work as is, and it's a lot worse if I have to go through and manually correct entries.

    Twysta, locked -- I'm talking to you.

    Also, VinnyJ, you ranked The Hood twice.

    I changed mine a bit... Black Panther down one, Hulk/Patch switched.

    I did copy paste names from the left, sorry, not sure what you mean.

    Added my rankings.
  • Surprised Thor and Wolvie are still so high.

    I voted. My rankings may go against everyone elses.
    Surprised Thor and Wolvie are still so high.
    suspect that is because a lot of players had them leveled up already.

    And some of us think Thor was buffed, a lot depends on the build you had previously and the other characters you have on your roster and how if at all you've been using them.

    Some, yes, but at least from what I saw it seemed like a lot more hated the nerf and sold their character without hesitation.

    I still maintain that behavior was more of a knee-jerk reaction to the nerfs. Thor/Wolvie are still perfectly viable and among the high-tier 2*s (Thor moreso than Wolvie, who probably needs some strike tile synergy in order to be considered good), and I'm glad to see that most people still see that.
  • Also, VinnyJ, you ranked The Hood twice.

    ...ahh... that's where it went; Parker lent the cloak to Ororo on their one and only date. The whole online thing. Don't always meet the right people.

    Storm has returned the cloak, and is now revealed in her sparkly glory!


    (I thought that was more fun than, "oops, I fixed it")

    I enjoyed it. icon_e_smile.gif

    In other news, since we have well over ten ballots, voting will be CLOSED and the sheet will be locked Sunday night. If you've got input, vote now!

    If it's not too late, I added mah stuff. We are not including gold Thor in this? I mean, he's sorta the same character but ~8 ranks higher, but maybe the higher levels bring radical changes that we cannot see yet.

    Hmm, I think mischiefmaker meant that I copied Wolverine (Astonishing) instead of Wolverine (yellow). But I don't know anyone who calls him that.
