ThaRoadWarrior said: Has anyone figured out why sometimes having a total party kill with Hulkform in play results in losing the match, and other times he reverts to Banner? Which is the bug do we think?
ThaRoadWarrior said: I’m not so sure I agree with that. I was an early Carbage apologist for exactly that reason - an extra AP gathering turn that will auto seek out a Match N that you may overlook is pretty strong. But it becomes a real liability when you have a match 5+ that it whiffs AND you lose out on all the AP from the whole cascade.

If you can transform into hulk and cast Sighclops’ yellow once, Hulkform tanks every color but yellow and does really solid match damage. You can then stun on green and purple for that sonar strike damage. If you’ve happened to cast hulk’s black before transforming you can flip those enemy attacks into strikes as well. I still have never been able to get a solid answer as to why Banner is a joke character vs the many, many other similarly bad characters at the 5* tier. He's not nearly as bad as Wasp or Kingpin, for example, characters that just don't actually *do* anything.The most common one people give used to be that Hulk "steals your good matches," which...I mean, ok. People also really seem to want the Hulk to generate AP, and that would make him a little better, but nowhere even close to being good.

So he has had longer to develop his reputation for awfulness. And then carnage coming along years later with the same passive + ap collection followed by a meta zombie hulk was just salt in the wound.
