I've been trying lvl 367 3/5/5 MEH, lvl 284 4/5/4 Juggernaut and lvl 287 3/5/5 Ronin against Gritty teams and other 5* teams that are usually beatable with 4*s and I haven't won any matches yet, even with AP boosts. I fail to see the synergy.Perhaps the levels make a difference there or the one who beat me repeatedly last season was using TUs or something weird was going on. Perhaps someone else would like to try this team against Gritty Bishop? (Warning: they might not work and you will waste health packs)

But man that is a crazy fun combo. I very often had Goblin fortify 3 blue CD tiles for a 6 turn stun and after matching had enough AP for Bobby to cast his blue two more times. It’s crazy crazy good with no active overlap! I love finding out combos that play way better than the sum of their parts and have such good synergy like Gambit/Storm, Doom/Loki, Iceman/Goblin because I’m so bored of Thorkoye that I try to only play them when I really have to (5* essential, quick push in PVP). As an aside, I think Daredevil is my most played second option on my roster. He has synergy and just works well with so many people. In pick-2, I have often paired him with: Doom, Cable, Iceman, Jessica, Thanos, Kingpin, Kitty, Black Suit, Okoye, Strange and Ock. Weirdly never tried Thor (though I’ve seen that combo a lot in PVP).

What's the tactic with Doom/Loki? I've not tried them together...

What's the tactic with Doom/Loki? I've not tried them together... I wrote this in the Carnage thread (weirdly), but will repost here:Loki is a natural pair with Doom as a climbing team. They both have gigantic nukes and true heal. They also provide a puzzle aspect I like. Basically, Loki places his tiles on black. Obviously you want to match them to fuel Doom (and get more countdowns), but if the AI matches them you still get more CDs and siphon their black thanks to Doom’s passive. When Loki dies and drops his trap it can often land in a hard to reach place. Doom’s board shuffle has allowed me to revive Loki more than a few times. Not only that, his cascades into matches have multiplied Loki’s CD tiles as well.

I had fun. These were my teams and results. The losses were usually because I was stingy with health packs and didn’t heal up before going in.Okoye / Thor 5-0Doctor Doom / Loki 5-0Kitty Pryde / Wolverine 5-0Green Goblin / Iceman 6-0Captain Marvel / Jessica Jones 5-0Archangel / Professor X 5-0Hela / Doctor Strange 5-0Black Panther / Thanos 5-1Daredevil / Kingpin 5-1Cable / Storm 5-0Captain America (IW) / Doctor Octopus 5-0Ghost Rider/ Spider-Man (BiB) 5-0I think I might actually do this again and switch up teams. As long as I wasn’t fighting Gritty (who is just bad due to Switch’s tile) or the broken 4s, I could win just fine). Since DD is essential he will have to sit on the bench. I’d sub in my almost champed Gambit instead. As far as “fun teams” go, they were all pretty fun if only for variety. Captain Marvel/Jessica surprised me as did GR/BSSM as tandems I’d never thought to try but were pretty effective.
