Now we've just pretty much been discussing 4 star leveling strategies for the last few pages and how awesome champed Electra is (ok, awesome may be an exaggeration, maybe 'situationally decent?')

Roland113 said: DAZ0273 said: I cannot stress enough how good Riri is now, especially if you run her with Vulture. This is seconded. Riri and Vulture are lights out.Also, I think Gwenpool gets a bad rap cause she's a little difficult to work. In my mind, she's top tier as well. She is one of the 4*'s that I use even when she isn't boosted. Her board control has changed the swing of Ultron events for me.
ThaRoadWarrior said: Thanks for the advice y'all. I have a few ideas about what order I'd like to champ them based on my current list of existing champs and the teams I like to play. I feel obligated to champ Peggy fairly soon, but I've been wanting run a Mordo/Lockjaw/Lady Thor team for the longest time - I feel like that team would be awesome. Transitioning from covers and iso being a bottleneck to a pure iso-bottleneck is an interesting new status quo for me lol.
ThaRoadWarrior said: I have run Peggy/Shuri/IM40 and Peggy/Shuri/P4nther. Both teams are monsters, even with a lvl 171 Peggy in between them. I too find Bl4ck Widow utterly useless and bottom tier, but I've seen 5* players talk about her like she's great so I must not be doing something right.
ThaRoadWarrior said: Mordo brings black charge spam for 8 black with good damage on blue with +2 charge tiles and an active purple that slays, Lockjaw has multi-color charge spam on green with a yellow passive and a situational blue, and Lady Thor has an uncapped charge-tile based nuke on red, an active AOE on yellow that can do a little enemy tile spam to charge tile conversion, and a stun on blue that creates charge tiles. This team should be a single-target damage nightmare factory. For this team, I'd probably try and get Lockjaw's green going first to help accelerate AP acquisition for the other powers, but most of these powers are just 2-matches away.
ThaRoadWarrior said: If the plan is to just get charge tiles on the board so Lady Thor can due a 9-breaker red nuke on somebody, it doesn't matter if Lockjaw gets to also gnaw on them. I think with both Lockjaw and Kraven we all fixated on the "interesting" side effects of their powers, but the actual things they do actively can have some larger utility with a little creativity.
