    THat's why I put him somewhere between Havok and Kingpin, the place on the list of quality that is full of uninteresting to actively bad characters who aren't quite Banner or Wasp.Though I am actively working on my 4/3/4 Banner so that I can evaluate just how bad he actually is. I feel like I'd prefer him to Kingpin.

    As someone who has Banner champed I can confirm he is terrible. At least last time he was boosted hulk also got the boost so he was usable for a laugh.

    Knull takes 3 turns to put a strike tile.

    My version would be:

    Start of game: create one 1028 strength strike tile followed by buffing it by 1028. Total strength = 2056

    Turn 1: create one 1028 strength strike tile followed by buffing it by 1028. Total strength = 4112

    He will stop creating strike tiles at the 5th one, and buffs a random one.

    Or, instead of creating one strike tile, he creates a random strike, protect or attack tile. The, he creates a copy and buff them.

    If it worked like Ronan, where every SAP produced a single duplicate every turn, that would be something.

    Wouldn't this power be broken? The strength is 1028.

    What you're describing is probably too strong, assuming that Kitty, Polaris, and Beta Ray Bill exist in their current form.  If those 3 suddenly didn't exist, it's probably ok.

    Yes. You'd have to lower the number. But at that point, it sort of becomes like Carnage, only without limits. You'd have to either cap it or have it also add enemy tiles of % strength. That would be consistent with the way certain villains have powers that do team dmg on top of offensive dmg.

    It would be a modern 5* power in my opinion lol. But yeah, probably overpowered.

    We could reduce the created tile strength by half to 514 and allow the buff to remain at 1028. However, it would mean seeing Kitty/Ultron?

    We'll see I suppose; I don't anticipate too many "nerf ultron!" threads showing up once he hits latest though.

    We can make an ironic one for Ultron. It is funny there have been no dedicated calls to nerf Okoye since boosts rolled out, even during her boost week. Everyone has her at 550 I assume.

    So after the PvP event is basically over. I didn’t even notice him honestly.

    I don’t see him having legs and will most likely be a middling 5*. Not terrible, not great, and with little utility you probably won’t see him often.

    Nerf threads are great if you enjoy repeatedly smashing your head against walls.

    They could release a character who passively did 500,000 damage to the enemy team on turn 1, and if someone posted "they should nerf this guy" other players would pile on them with the same old tired arguments.


    "Well, he's too good, but don't nerf him!  Give us a counter!"

    "You're just mad that you can't beat him!"

    "It's power creep, you have to keep up!"

    "It's a superhero game, characters should all be super!"

    "He's too good, but I have him so it's ok!"

    We could always nerf all the others 5*s for to be like ultron.

    Just saw that marvel 'what if?' episode.
    why do we get a 5 year old Ultron instead of the Ultron/vision with infinity stones?
    A combination of 3* Vision and 3*Thanos that spammed sentry bots would be insanely awesome.

    Yeah the timing of this release is really amazing... in What If we get Ultron with the Infinity Stones in MPQ we get ... this :(



    Spoilers!!!!

    How the *redacted* did Ultron beat Thanos with 5 infinity stones in one attack!!! I hate when they do these things. Also, infinity stones dont work when you get out of your own Universe. Sometimes I wonder who writes these things :(

    Anything worth using here? Ideas for great teammates at least and/or buttressing with concomitant supports? Thanks
