HoundofShadow said: Welcome back!In 2021, Wanda was released as a counter and effectively killed iHulkoye. Now, we have been in the defensive meta of Wanda/Colossus for the past 6 months and the latest 5* release, Gamora, is a counter to this defensive meta. However, weekly boosted 5* shifted the gameplay in pvps a lot. The top 5 5* are Wanda, Colossus, Apocalypse, Beta Ray Bill and Kitty. Shang-Chi can also be considered top (offensively) but he's a glass cannon on defense. You can go winfinite mode with Shang Chi and 2* Magneto and 3* Mystique. In PvEs, Shang-Chi makes Challange node feels like 4* essential node. So, that's how powerful he is offensively. He's also been lauded as the character who brings the "Puzzle" back into MPQ.Polaris is easily the best 4*. The other top (offensive) 4* are Karnak, Captain America Chavez, Juggernaut and the fifth spot can go to other characters as well.

ThaRoadWarrior said: How many players like yourself do you imagine are out there? And by "like yourself" I here mean 2-3* players right now? I have no insight into that strata of the player base so I'm curious if you feel like it's a ghost town down there, or if you're seeing higher level rosters slumming it, or what.
