Is now the right time for me to level Silver Surfer?

Can anyone make an argument to softcap a 2/4/4 surfer at 405 if the only other 5*s are PH 4/3/4 420, OML 2/4/0 345, GG 2/1/2 330?

Surfer would be a nice answer to Power Surge in Earth’s Mightiest and also good against seed teams in lightning rounds and pve. Maybe shield hops too? Otherwise would my scaling and matchmaking be awful?

My championed 4*s are
Iron Man, Thor, Wolverine, X-23, Jean Grey, Cyclops, Deadpool, Carnage, Red Hulk and Thing.

My rule of thumb is if I see Surfer (and not a 450+ second 5*), I immediately attack. He is just so incredibly weak that I don’t think he’s much of a scarecrow, even at 405 I’d much rather take on Surfer than a 370 buffed good 4* (Rulk/IM/Ice/JG and the like)

Amen to this. Also, you don’t want him to be the one to push you into 5* MMR.
