So far, I’ve been able to float just under 600, and I’ve come back to mostly defense wins with just a few Silver Surfer based losses. I assume I’m mostly getting skipped from annoyance with the time a match would take against this team, but that float point is about 100% higher than it’s been since I champed my first 5*. I imagine it would be even worse (better?) if I were using WCap for additional CD grind, but mine is still 1/4/4.

Worthy is only good when you you can exploit 8 billion passive CD tiles going off either with a Carol buffing (4* players) or a Hawkeye AP feast (5* players). In both instances you really need two additional characters to make him broken. Bishop can stun lock your team and then iceman can add to the 4-turn stun. I want no part of that.

I think my record so far is something like 54k worth of Strike tiles before everyone on the other side falls over, but it's probably higher, because there have been a lot of matches ended by the Milano countdown or Circuit Breaker, so I didn't get to check after the last round of buffing.

But here we go.In Shield Sim, i just got done beating a champed Gritty-Juggs team......using only 4*s......and no Whales team up......and not a single character died on my team.Bishop, Quake, Nightcrawler(Bishop yellow at 3, Quake green at 3, Nightcrawler blue at 3)Bishop takes the hit as always... But NC takes nothing from any Juggs hit, and quake makes it so that its almost void the first two rounds. Bishop is mainly only taking match damage for a couple turns.Each turn, use Quake blue to eliminate the color that has the most enemy strikes on it. Try to avoid targetting purples if you can.After 2 or 3 turns of this, use any quake blue if necessary to make sure the board is purple heavy.By this point, youve shouldve gained a bit of purple from cascades or matches. Enough at least for one Bamf. And now its win-finite time!Use quake blue here and there in order to trim other colors down if need be, but in the end, its just Bamf for days, throwing out a NC red here and there for fun.Maybe it was luck... But i couldnt help but try my hand at an idea once the gears started turning.

But i couldnt help but try my hand at an idea once the gears started turning. @PiMacleod This team single-handedly got me to the 4* cover in Simulator over the weekend!It worked so well I couldn't stop until I reached the end. I played 9 consecutive battles executing them exactly the way you prescribed it and it worked flawlessly. I was 9-0 in those battles, earned over 400 points (some of those JugGritty teams have juicy points values!) and jumped from my float point to 2,000. I even only had to use 6 health-packs (all on Bishop, of course) along the way.Afterwards, I threw out a Grittydusa team to put a better team out for defense/scarecrow, but at that point I didn't really care, my placement was already pretty much set.Thank you for sharing this team! It was not "just luck", it's "just genius". PS: One slight addition to the strategy, once you've successfully flipped the board to massive amounts of purple and are simply win-finite Bamfing their brains out, eventually (usually through match-4s) you will get enough blue to fire Bishop's stun. Stun Juggs and the Bamfing will be much more effective against him since it negates his passive match damage reduction.
