    l agree that it will work similar to Kitty's Practiced Offense. Imagine you have 5 of his cd tiles out and the opponent AoE your team. Is it more likely to have 3 protect tiles out or 15 protect tiles out? I should have used this question on myself. :D

    Regardless, those extra damage will allow you to down either one of the many of the baby champed 5*, Bishop or Worthy Cap.
    For the 30 blue AP it takes to cast that power 5x, plus eating an AOE, 15 protects seems about right. 

    But you also would have done 61K damage at that point, so do the amount of protects even matter? Lol.

    Wow.  Slow start but ramped up there at the end.  Carnage might be a good partner after all.

    I'd love to see P4nther/BRB/Okoye too

    Are you playing on a Surface, or using a touch screen? I love the absence of an arrow/pointer in your videos. Watching my own video, it's very distracting as my mouse bounces around the screen: https://www.reddit.com/r/MarvelPuzzleQuest/comments/e6uehs/brb_gritty_vs_gritty_juggs/

    Not much to say, he's pretty solid. Blue is by far his best ability and green is kinda lackluster without an Okoye assist or strikes out. He'll most likely be a pain to play against, especially at higher levels.

    I have always been a fan of beta ray bill and he looks really solid! A someone to break the hoard for!

    No offense to anyone, but MPQ social media pushing MODOK at the 200th character vs BRB who is the 200th in the game we actually play (can you even play the console one anymore?) was not the best choice.

    MODOK is kind of fun but BRB is the character people will actually be using in a couple months vs "what does he do again?".

    Ha!  This happens quite often during DDQ when you have that required character and I have to look at all their powers to remember what to collect and in which order to use the powers.

    Seems like a cool character, and is unique with the protect scheme.  I like him.

    Ima go for it.  Special vault has brb, Thor, and hela - got 200cp for that.  Then I'll let some LTs fly when he is inserted into latest legends.

    Any idea when BRB enters latest legends ?

    If they follow Carnage's pattern, it could be 12/26. (2 weeks from close of the HP store)

    Update:  the devs are out of the office between Christmas and New Year's, so 1/2 is what I am expecting (or 1/3).  If it's earlier I'll be pleasantly surprised.

    Anyone have him champed in the wild yet?  How good is he in action?

    There are videos of him on this same page. You could see how he is with a select few characters. Maybe you have a team in mind?
    Yeah the videos are fine (those are hacked steam accounts, right?). I just prefer a text-based discussion.  For whatever reason I have never found MPQ gameplay videos to be very useful.

    I am also wondering if anyone has him champed on a non-sandboxed account.  I can't imagine that anyone champed him from the 1/250 heroics.  But now that the LT store is up, I assume we will start seeing him in game shortly.

    Did everyone miss that this was the 200th character in the game?

    Picked up BRB at 1/2/5, and he is pretty fun. I got Bishop at like 2/0/2, and he works great with him.  I really like how it is making me use characters I hardly ever use like 2* bullseye, powerman. Making protects relevant again!

    @IceIX I can fire his blue multiple times, and it makes a repeater every time, bit when i iake damage, I only get 1 protect even if I have multiple repeaters out.  Shouldn't I get a protect for each repeater?

    They counted the Console-only Iron Patriot, so as far as they're concerned, M.O.D.O.K. was #200.

    There are different characters on different platforms?

    That's the only one. I only know anything about it because of the wiki and a few times he's been mentioned on the Forum.
