I actually use SG and Psylocke quite a bit, they have their uses and are i would not consider them guilty pleasures…
I voted QS, i have him covered at 5/5/3, and will use him randomly in goon nodes, just to explode his blue or make a match 5 for my tiny 2/4/2 PX to do his HUGE forehead dance for tiny damage since i need more covers.
I’m starting to have a great appreciation for Loki during The Hulk event as a response to Bullseye and those darn protect tiles. I just patiently wait for him to get five protect tiles before taking them all! Bullseye can slow a match to a crawl, but not anymore. I also enjoy doing this to Daken, rendering his attack almost useless, but it gives me a guilty pleasure doing it to Bullseye.
His Green (with a special blue out there) is never going to be Embiggened Bash or Call the Storm…but it’s just cheap enough to hurt enough…and if you’re rolling with KK you get all those heals…throw in Beast’s yellow and you can keep yourself from dying in fights where you have no right to be alive.
I voted for Squirrel Girl because she was listed. The more I play with her the more I like her. Her purple is good, and her yellow is surprisingly helpful.
But my true guilty pleasure is Doc Ock. Something about his black I really like.
She-Hulk is fantastic on defense.
I’m liking the current Hood PvP because I can put her with Luke Cage and just tank away. No-one uses green except her, so the moment she gets 6 green, she’s emptying 2 AP pools.
I thought she was so disappointing when she first came out since I quite like the character and had been looking forward to her making it into the game. Once they announced the tweaks and I got to use her, I liked her a lot more and actually spent some time getting her to 166. Just need one more red cover.
Before Blade Psylock was my go to in PVE with Patch and Daken. Now she just sits there because blade is so much better.
Squirrel Girl is awesome and every time she is buffed for the week she is a staple in PVE and PVP. She is just too much fun to play.
I will also say Gamora is really fun to play with IF when she is the main tank. Her strike tiles and low AP red and IF attack tile are awesome. Some times I add Groot to th mix for way too many strike tiles.
Re: Gamora. It figures a loser like IM40 can really set off her black. And since im40 just fed her a heap of red ap, she can really deal substantial damage.
My misfit group will be Gamora, Bullseye, and IM40. I’m stuns himself. Gamora uses her black. She whittles with her red then Bulseye finishes off. Strike tiles for EVERYONE!!
Gamora/IF/1*Hawkeye are my Ultron dream team and now I can’t see myself using anyone else. Otherwise, Vision/Gamora/IF were also fun in Balance of Power.
I would almost say that Squirrel Girl doesn’t even deserve to be on this list. Purple does decent damage even when you can’t get much of the conditional damage. Green is like Hawkeye’s Speed Shot except it gives you some free AP back and you can control when it goes off.
I thought the point of this thread is “which characters do you like to play, but everyone else thinks are crappy?” To see characters like Cyclops mentioned just does not compute. “Oh hey, I totally enjoy playing one of the top 10 characters in the game.” You don’t say.
