It’s the one we have been waiting for - yes Abigail Brand is god boosted! She is going to laser so many suckers from orbit! Personally - I am astonished to realise that I have every single 5* champed this Class! I don’t know what to do with them all…apart from play Mighty Thor of course. I can see Crystal being a favourite too. I may also be that one guy with Moon Knight front-ish…

I do really like Elektra I must say. If it becomes too much of a RiRi event that will spoil it as spamming her stun is like one of only 6 things the AI knows how to do and enjoys it immensely.
I have 5 of them and none of them are finished. Hit-Monkey is the most with 7 covers. Kamala has 6 covers. Elektra has 4. Abilgail has 4. Then Arcade has 1. Despite Arcade being the one I actually I really wanted to use boosted.
It’s 100% related to his stun immunity allowing you to actually take your turn with chasm and riri, not because he is any good. There are some good charge-spammers in this list that will triple your AP accrual, which may be a good enough accelerant to have him actually fire a power before end of match…
So with the ambiguous time scale of “sometime in the evening of 21st” for Chasm’s nerf hitting - do we need to put him back in this equation? Are there going to be two different versions of Chasm running in this event?!?!?!?!
The start-of-match stun is potentially reason enough to run him. I think you’re going to see him quite a lot, his nerf doesn’t seem THAT detrimental to tbh.
But it brings up the question of whether old Chasm is hard-coded into the event or he gets replaced by new Chasm after the event starts? This will be them doing a nerf at the same time the character was going to be boosted so is gonna be weird if his powers change after the event starts.
