It is easier than one thinks for SC to not have a move that does not bring a Red/Purple match. you are absolutely right. +1r/y, +1b/p. every single match, no exceptions. onslaught is my favorite partner, an opening match4 can open up a lot of possibilities. factor in the totally exploitable if/else-opponent who will always take a match4 which can (and will) also result in a board in your favor.for me, shang brings the puzzle back to the game. can't really watch anything on tv while playing him, but doesn't really matter - I'm here to watch those numbers fly.

If you are using him with boosts every match, then you aren't really leaning into the "puzzling" bit of his style like you think you are.

Technically that’s only an advantage at the start of the game. It’s still puzzling throughout the match depending on the board.

If her boost is coded like Wanda's, they'll stack because it's a % increase and a flat number increase. They gave us that math one time, I want to say the % gets applied, then the numberical bonus gets applied.

I tested Wanda with okoye extensively when Wanda launched and never got a clear indication that both boosts were being applied.

HoundofShadow said: I noticed that too. I think Kaecilius takes 0 damage? I remember some players used certain teams and Kaecilius took 1 damage. Was it Medusa?
