entrailbucket said:I really haven't run into that very much!
When I have her set at 5 green, I can't remember a time the CD got destroyed. When she's less than 5 green the CD *always* gets destroyed though.It’s not terrible now that she can tank colors, her propensity to stay out front and get knocked out by matching is undoubtedly higher. But I, among others, will be teeing her up to take the kill shot from a saved power more times than not, and that pesky cd just happens to land in the match zone sometimes. It’s frustrating and could at least be circumvented a bit by fortification without breaking the game or anything.
I will drop some free advice for her: don’t spam her purple before she gets knocked out! Lol0 -
The timing of this is interesting as I just rostered Jean. Only Black Panther and Daredevil remain. Soon they shall be mine. Soon.2

This is great news. Hopefully we get more rebalances to come!
On a side note can we roll back the nerf to OML already? It was unnecessary at the time and even less necessary now.2 -
Remember the nerf to OML's healing actually included a pretty significant buff to his berserk abilities.
If they gave him back his healing but went back to the old versions of his berserk abilities, he might actually get *worse* in today's meta (if that's possible).0 -
I'm not sure why they want rollback to Gambit's and OML's pre-nerfs, given that they would still not be good in this era: old match damage, old health. Maybe Gambit could still be broken with his any tiles overwrite, aps destruction and ap gains. The other matter is, should the dev also rollback their compensations?
Let's move forward and ask for buffs and reworks for them instead. However, I wonder if it's fair for these two to get so much attention again? There are other characters who haven't received much needed attention like Wasp, Kingpin and others. Even Silver Surfer, the first 5* released, should deserve priority.

I liked the change, but isn't it time Jean Grey gets a new icon/symbol different from that of Professor X? At least the Phoenix version could be a little bird.2

It's kind of like Sersi's match-5 countdown-creating power...her tiles will go off after a few turns and hit for 30k, which seems nice. But meanwhile Shang-Chi spent those few turns reducing the enemy team to a smoking, radioactive crater on your screen.0 -
That's assuming you get the board or matches you want with SC. There are many matches where it doesn't go my way or it takes long to set up. Getting 30k hits while setting up is really helpful. It can easily take out nuisances like Mantis or Polaris.0
-
If SC is tanking red at 5 covers, taking valkyrie along and getting one match of red gives you 7 AP. You can then start manipulating the board and you have to be pretty unlucky not to gain red/purple AP from then on.
As others have said, SC doesn't really need anyone else with him who causes big damage as his numbers are insane, its all about AP generation/board manipulation for his supports.0 -
OML needs some rebalance as well and please D3go make 5* bruce banner a new rework, he is the one that needs it the most.0

The view from players at that tier is pretty criminally underrepresented here, so don't let us get away with ignoring it.0 -
I enjoyed using her, this boost gets a double thumbs up from me. Previously I really struggled with what the point of her was. Good job Devs.6
-
I forgot how good she is with Storm. With Valkyrie, the strongest color is green cuz of Jean. Storm and Jean just manipulate the **** out of the board dropping cascades and making really long turns. But before it didn’t mean much because Jean was so weak.Now, there’s some substance.1
-
@IceIX any hope of Silver Surfer or Thanos getting another rebalance…or possible although many may say she doesn’t need it but Storm getting a slight rebalance? Since the Jean Grey rebalance has gone over well with many. I wouldn’t know necessarily since my Jean has not seen a cover in years since I actually acquired a second one on her day at 910 from the daily rewards. Whew! Lol.0

Next on the list of rebalance should be thanos and hulk bb
powers for thanos are fine but his match damage points are 200 down on most newer characters and when you consider how powerful he is in both comics and mcu he should be scoring higher
hulk banner needs quite a rework though when boosted he is ok1 -
Thanos’s purple should be a start of battle passive 1-turn repeater if we are changing any powers. Leave Court Death alone and do whatever you want with his green.1

I have also in the past proposed that his purple be a unique tile (like boss thanos’s infinity stones) that appears at start of battle and does why it does until matched away, and then it just doesn’t come back.0

Then maybe make it so that as long as Thanos was the one who makes the match, it increased the CD by 1 (so he could in effect keep it going forever).KGB
