Shintok17 said: I don't understand why people are making such a big deal out of 5* Jessica Jones not having a 3* equivalent released. The last couple of the 5* & 3* simultaneous releases have been under whelming. The only one any of you ever really used was 3* Gambit until he was nerfed. The rest of the 3*'s like Elektra and Angel I only used when they were essential. I'm looking forward to hopefully getting 5* Jessica Jones. Her powers look good to me.

Unless it's Jessica Jones, then unfortunately no.

Brigby,
Not to besmirch this answer, but I believe you are not using the word "strong" correctly in a sentence. I believe the word you are looking for is "feeble". Nick Fury, Spider-woman, and X-23, are basically all out of the Top 40 of the 4 star rankings. Considering there are basically 60 four star characters, that is essentially saying they are bottom dwellers. I think it is safe to say, that the majority of the people who will champ Jessica in the next four months, will rarely ever face any of those characters, even when the four star is boosted. The exception will of course be in, PVE situations. Feel free to make a bet with me, you have access to the statistics, although in five months, I am sure both of us, will have forgotten this post.
As for the lack of the 5*cover swap, that really makes purchasing her early in this situation, a very bad deal for your customers.
Statistically, it would require an expenditure of about 7000 command points to have about a 70% chance to cover her fully and you could get stuck with extra covers of Green Goblin and/or Black Panther that are useless.
Wait!! Now before you say those are "strong" characters, please consider other words, like inadequate, feeble, flimsy, or dare I say it, uncompetitive. None of them are Top 5, some would argue that Black Panther is barely top 10, but they would have to mention (If using Thanos) in the same breath. Green Goblin would be considered bottom tier along with the other green colored five stars.

Traps can be overwritten by enemy special tiles; they don't trigger if in the path of a match-4 or match-5; they're placed randomly, so you could go the whole match just matching one or two of them. And nothing happens if the enemy matches them. It only becomes insane if it takes allies' trap tiles into account, like Doom, Chavez, Fury.
HoundofShadow said:2. When you match one, gain 3 AP in your strongest color and deal 10,123 damage.Does Jessica Jones have to be the one to match the trap tile to activate the bonus or can anyone in Jessica Jone's team match the trap tile to activate the bonus?3. Will JJ's red overwrite her own trap tile? I guess not because Patch's Berseker Rage doesn't overwrite Dr. Doom trap tiles.So far, JJ abilities are really good. If I want max damage, then I will run 5/5/3. If I'm teaming her up with another special tiles creator, I might just run 3/5/5.

The fact that she will become a possible threat every turn because of her trap tiles is not so casual, especially in a game where you have 3 enemies, not just herself. Not only that but her blue feeds into red. 9AP for 11k and 2k worth of strike tiles, with potential to spam it ? From the moment she will cast her first red the tile match damage will be 3k+ every turn. Easily maintainable from there on. I think she will be as strong as Gambit.

Unless it's Jessica Jones, then unfortunately no. Why does this policy persist? What purpose does it serve?I already have a 1/5/4 BP (and a 0/1/0 dupe because cs refused to help me out with the hornhrad tokens). If cs offered swaps I would be strongly incentivized to buy a bunch of alias tokens: I could get the new 5* and finish up a very hard-to-finish classic at the same time.
