MPQ aficionados,

A new 5-Star character has been revealed today for _Marvel Puzzle Quest_ - Black Widow (Natasha Romanoff)!

Ability and design details, as well as first-look screenshots, are available right now in a chat with D3 Go’s Josh Austin.

You can [**READ IT HERE**](http://marvel.com/news/video_games/26665/piecing_together_marvel_puzzle_quest_black_widow).

PIECING TOGETHER MARVEL PUZZLE QUEST: BLACK WIDOW  
Quote:  
**“Josh Austin: The ‘Captain America: Civil War’ movie brought us a 5-Star Iron Man and a 5-Star Captain America to the world of ‘Marvel Puzzle Quest.’ The perfect complement to these characters is a 5-Star Black Widow (Natasha Romanoff). She’s an important fighting force on the Avengers, and adding a Marvel Cinematic Universe variation of Black Widow to the game was an exciting opportunity to help build from the big screen.”**

The Civil War in game (?) event is thrown in as a footnote. Could we please get an official notice of when it starts (Sept 1, noon eastern?) and maybe what the prizes are?

So now we need 5\* MCU Thor and Hawkeye to complete the original MCU Avengers. And now that I think about it, each of those Avengers would only be missing on one tier except Hulk (no 1\* Cap or Thor, no 2\* Tony, no 3\* Hawkeye, no 4\* Widow).

And nice backdoor announcement of the Civil War re-run. Though I wonder what the changes will be (because I feel like there’s definitely going to be changes).

I don’t know if she will be God tier.

She has 3 abilities that all require 4 matches. She could be pretty slow (a la fury).

Wow, another 5? So soon? When was BB released because it feels it was less than a month agao (but I might be wrong).

Clearance levels need to go live ASAP, because every new 5 makes it much harder to level any of them

PS: And new Civil War event out of nowhere!

Think bout how she will counter Goblin and all his pumpkin bombs for 7 AP. Overall she is going to hit really hard when she hits. The stun will be interesting and I wonder if it will fire when a character self stuns themselves( IM40).

Sounds like she’ll be extremely handy to have on goon nodes, especially when CD and strike tiles are spammed. I’m looking at you, Maggia and symbiotes.

Are we reading the same thing? No team stun no AOE damage - hardly God tier

I bit more advance notice on the Civil War event would have been great. Also, how will it work this time? You’ve changed how rewards are gotten since last time - in order for multiple-play nodes & 1 reward for single-play nodes. Not to mention you’ve probably tweaked the levels we’ll be facing some & maybe changed Boss Cap & Boss IM a bit.

Anyone else miss when the boss unlock nodes scaled with round rather than time into event?

I don’t doubt it. As others have pointed out though it might not be until his next movie.

Well! My Black Bolt thanks you!

Oh wait, no it doesn’t…I don’t even have one of those yet. You are releasing these so fast and not changing the low percentage RNG nature…what is the point of continuing play?!?

it was in jest. I simply combined her dominant abilities from earlier tiers which would create a godly character.

at first glance, not really impressed (she’s very conditional).

A dual set of skills (with a fixed effect whatever the case may be), depending on who she’s paired with (cap 5\* or im 5\*) would have been interesting… snd making her count both as team iron man and team cap (would have made sense lore-wise as well, and increased her value as a support character).

Maybe she will shine in pve, as someone pointed out.

Then add in burst healing and making match 5s for Phoenix to boost oml strike tiles. Double dipping on those tiles with a steal as well? That would be god tier ![icon_e_smile.gif](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex023/uploads/x505go/original/1X/67bb473b5611f3e55d45572294b1a2a498a74c04.gif)

Ps-screw it. Throw in a cd reducer to bring Phoenix back in 1 turn!

In this case, drain means steal.
