It has some definite potential for players who don't have a robust 5* roster and to a lesser degree as a PvP defensive pest. Characters with 'true healing' type effects are valuable and Loki will hopefully be no different. So why is it Poor? PvP and PvE are based around speed and damage dealing. This is a 100% defensive skill that only has a CHANCE to trigger. In reality its less reliable than Phx's revive because the AI won't try to deliberately match this tile to prolong pvp. It'll just happen by accident. One note, the enemy doesn't need to match the trap tile to trigger it, you can match it as well. This greatly increases the likelihood of it getting matched. He was speaking of using him on a defense team.

Was thinking it would be fun to run Loki with Hawkeye. Then I realized that fortifying the Shadowplay countdowns may not be the best idea - it certainly didn't work well for Xpool.
Oh well, still looks fun and I will probably spend what CP I have hoarded on the vault. Don't mind more Thor or Bolt covers at all...

jredd said: as mentioned before, these revive abilities are nice, but you might only use them in 1 of 20 matches you use the characters. you're basically making a 5* with 2 abilities which makes them less useful.

Okoye only truly shines with Thor and even then she needs to be at least 6 levels below Thor or higher to do so. Meanwhile Thor enables a variety of teams since he's an AP generator especially if you can get any other 5's to protect him by tanking colors over him. Thor is the current best character in the game. Okoye without Thor is at best mid-tier with plenty of better characters than her. Lukas - Go for Thor, no question. Your Okoye still has time to grow afterward and can be completed by feeders in the worst case scenario.Broll - Strongly recommend you don't put another level into Thor and put any additional covers for him into a dupe. Whether or not you go all out for Okoye largely depends on how much you have hoarded and how many pulls you can get before she leaves because she needs a lot of work. BB is pretty good but you can just finish him by championing sandman and waiting a while. If you have a shot at Okoye with your resources then go for it.

Don't mind more Thor or Bolt covers at all... A fortified CD, such as Loki's, will still work when matched. You get double the use out of them.
Fortifying means the countdown will not Count as "destroyed" when matched, so it will be very very difficult for Loki to spam more countdowns when Hawkeye keeps fortifying them. As I alluded to above, I made the mistake of pairing Hawkeye with X-force Deadpool in one of the Ultron runs. Ultron would destroy the bottom row, but since Deadpool's Countdown for What countdowns were fortified it would just remove the fortification and not deal damage. Then Hawkeye would refortify them so Ultron couldn't wreck them the next turn either.
Only upside was that it did slow down the bombs too...

Daredevil217 said: So do you all like Loki or Cap better? I’m sure this will be it’s own thread as Cap gets closer to leaving. My Cap is an abysmal 0/5/4. My Okoye also has a rough build at 1/5/4. But I have 270 pulls right now so should be able to finish her. The question is do I go Cap/Wasp/Okoye or Loki/Wasp/Okoye?
