    How are we doing in Class of 2020? BRB/Polaris all up and down the block for me

    Same for me, but I'm one of them.
    BRB (albeit only 0/2/1), Karnak, Polaris.
    it's the only viable team I have for this "class". The 4*s don't synergize well and I have horrible coverage on all of the 5s since I've been in hoard-mode almost all year.

    2020 = Since Anniverasy 2019 has started up until before Aniversary 2020 has started.

    BRB/Carbage/Polaris is fun. I've been using Onslaught/Apocalypse/MODOK, even though MODOK overlaps with Apocalypse more than i prefer. He makes a lot of red though, good for cascades and Survival of the Fittest.

    Likewise, I didn’t realize how powerful this trio is, I cut through everything with almost zero damage taken . I don’t think I’ve gotten a retaliation yet either

    Is Taco Vault: Spicy going to be a permanent addition to Sweet and Savory?

    10/13 Magneto (Classic) *NEW*

    This event started a new PVP Season. As is procedure, new 4's rotated into tokens at this time. This means Negasonic. Now, as the new 4-star character, Negasonic would then have shards available in PVP Season rewards, and shards in Shield Simulator, with a full cover available at 2000 points in Shiled Sim.

    Except anyone can check in game and see that we got Polaris instead.

    This means Negasonic will be a tad harder to cover than other 4's released this year. But this also means everyone has more access to covers of a highly valued new 4-star character (Polaris) instead.

    So a warning for people who would rely on those shards/cover to champ a new character, and a reason to celebrate for everyone who is more excited by the alternative.

    By next week every average player will have a fully operational Polaris and anyone still using tile defense , she will say “ You’re dead to me “.  I took out a Gritty/ Starlord5 in 2 moves . We will never see Negasonic.

    Negasonic is overshadowed by Polaris. Let's see what Elsa Bloodstone can bring to the table. I can't remember the exact abilities but it has something to do with stunning invisible and airborne enemy, tiles destruction and trap tiles.

    Has this been announced somewhere official? Was it on Twitch? I can't find anything

    It was mentioned during the live Twitch MPQ tournament. 


    Edit: 
    Elsa Bloodstone was mentioned at 1:55:20.

    https://m.twitch.tv/videos/772559291

    Red Power: low to medium ap cost. Stuns all invisible and airborne enemies. Deal damage to target.

    Blue Power: Destroy target tile and tiles around it and extra tiles. Deal damage for every yellow tile destroyed.

    Purple Power: Set trap tiles and (destroy it?).

    Passive Power: Transform Elsa if there are enough black tiles.

    That sounds like it might be interesting.
    i was thinking earlier today that we needed a passive power that depended on if there were enough same color tiles on the board.  Either dealing damage or destroying all tiles of that color, or really could be a lot of effects.  
    Edit - I guess there’s Blade and Cloak and Dagger, but it seems like something they could go further with.

    Like what they did with 5* Bruce Banner.  :D  

    Come to think of it, this how 5* Bruce Banner transformed. When there are enough green tiles on the board, create a cd and transform him into Hulk.
