And what buffs or reworks for those characters would you suggest if you had the chance? How would it make them more viable or interesting to use?

    1* - Hawkeye (Spiderman style refit)
    2* - Bagman (just make him a usable character)
    3* - Sentry (too weak)
    4* - Lockjaw (don't see him used ever in PvP
    5* - just stop with the multiple variations of the same characters - give us something fresh or open up 6* level

    Sentry was first to come to my mind, too. There don't seem to be any distinct upsides to using him that would balance out the fact that he deals damage to himself and the rest of his team. It would be cool if Bagman was more than just a collectible, from what I've heard nobody uses him, which sucks given that he's part of the tiny 2* tier.

    1. Banner 5*
    1a.  Doc Ock 5*
    1b. Wasp 5*
    2.  Phoenix-just need to increase her match damage, that should be about it. 
    3.  Dr. strange 5*-  In need of a health boost. Lower Health of any 5*. 
    5* ock I think would be ok if he started with 4 tentacle tiles on the board. I actually really enjoy the craziness of trying to get his green to work.

    Agreed, you can tell a lot of loving care went into that design to the extent that actually making it really good would ruin the whole thing. Doom has the diabolical plots, I like Doc Ock with his Cunning yet ludicrously overcomplicated scheme!

    Don't get me started on Cho, I haven't a clue as to how he could be fixed. Just dump him from the game, and give everyone their Iso and CP back.

    I think you're doing him too much discredit; Cho is actually usable since his rework. And nah, he still won't win any prizes in 'top characters' rankings, but his passive and targeted attack are okay, even better when run with a cd accelerator..

    On-topic: the first that come to mind for me are 4* Sam Wilson and Venom (Eddie Brock).

    5* banner Hulk’s free match should generate AP and Banners black should not make enemy attack tiles. And when Hulk dies Court Death should not be triggered.
    5* Cap infinity war.  His yellow should have a passive ability
    5* doc Ock just start over

    Cho is also a Sinister Six Boss Event specialist for taking out that blasted Ock reactor tile with one hit.

    Run Cho with Coulson, and focus on making team-up matches.  You will do a ridiculous amount of passive damage and collect a boatload of incidental green AP.  Then make like America and punch everything.

    My contenders for needs work: X-23 (I just can't seem to make her work well), 3* Gambit (have only and will only use for essentials), Kingpin (yeah, I know he was reworked already, still never gets used), War Machine (too slow, only green seems to pack a punch).

    Also true, although I prefer Gwenpool as she can do this for cheaper, and can hit Venom when he's hiding as well.

    I'm surprised how many people say Phoenix.  I don't have her champed so I haven't used her much, but she usually surprises me by being stronger on defense then I give her credit for.

    Most of the Hulks are actually fine. The 3* version and the 5* version need work. MEH, Cho, and She-Hulk are all solid for their tier.

    Both Elektras, Sam Wilson, Bucky, Nightcrawler, Lockjaw, War Machine, Drax, 4* Venom are all characters I don't even find useful when they're boosted. That's just sad.

    She has the lowest match damage of all 5*. It is terrible how low it is.  My 481 PHX highest damage color is green at 698 (purple 621, red 543) yet my SL 5* at 453 higest match damage is yellow at 721 (purple 626 green 547).  28 levels different and he is still stronger in match damage.  

    Okoye is 460 and is 799, 710, 622.  This is why is sits around and does nothing. PHX can’t compete at all due to power creep.

    Sam Wilson should get the Green Goblin treatment. Let him affect repeaters, buff his passive, and maybe lower the cost/damage of his nuke.
    Kraven should get the Wasp treatment. Lower the costs, up the damage, and help him self accelerate better.
    Infinity Widow needs some help with her purple.
    Bucky, X-23, and anyone who makes traps that you want the enemy to match should get buffed after the trap tile change.

    Flaptain needs some love. Maybe make it so any matches in red/yellow/blue buffs tiles. Make red cost a hair less. The buff for the tiles needs to be much better.

    Thing needs help as power creep destroyed him. Maybe give him a buff where if he teamed up with another fantastic 4 member he automatically creates a certain amount of defense tiles at start. Make his green cheaper and if he destroys a defense  tile with it generate more red or green AP or something.

    Lockjaw needs more damage, I still think he is bugged cause his damage numbers are laughable 

    Antman needs to have his blue tile get fortified or something. His yellow could stand to do more damage. Not a fan of trap tiles, I'd prefer a repeater tile for his pym particles . 

    That's all I can think of at the moment. ...

    Not sure many would argue that Sentry is basically useless.  I'd take away all the self damage, except for his yellow.  Make his yellow cost 10.  Make the damage to himself match the strength of the tile.

    GSBW really expensive.  I love her powers, but just cost so darn much.  She'd be one of those 3s that helps during that 3-4 transition period.  Pairs well with IM40.

    Since we took some power from 5* Gambit, how about we give it back to 3* Gambit?  Increase the cost of stacked deck to 6, remove team damage, reduce damage by ~25%.
