Yep. Everybody knew this day would come. It’s his turn to face…SOMEONE? Who could it be?!
Let’s be honest, you don’t need any coy hints at insider info to say it’s almost certainly Doctor Doom; they’re arch-nemeses and share two colors and Doom’s blue is well suited to getting rid of the Imaginaut countdown tiles that provide Reed’s only offense. But technically it’s still A MYSTERY!
Reed isnt too bad in a team, especially ones that generate strike tiles. The problem with 1v1 is that his only offensive power requires you to then match colours he cannot use, and one of those colours isnt even purple…
I feel this will be another disaster like Cap Falcon ( I had an 11 cover 551 at 180 and it was literally impossible), except even the people with a fully covered Mr. Fantastic aren’t going to fare very well. He can be useful as part of a team but solo he is terrible. He doesn’t generate enough special tiles on his own that healing is going to reliably save you and he has literally no offense. PX was going to be impossible without an opponent generating special tiles for you and going invisible so hopefully D3 has put some thought into this and will also give us an opponent who will generate some special tiles for us as well.
I had the (bad) luck to draw enough Mr. F’s from my legendary tokens to get him to 3/5/5. Sad that I’ll have to put levels into him though, he’s just sitting at 70 right now. They should just put him against bagman
Can’t blame D3 for that one though, the final issue of Secret Wars just got pushed into 2016. At this rate, the FF might actually be a part of the Marvel Universe again before that series finishes.
It’s sad that this may be yet another one of these that I don’t even try. My Reed is 1/1/3, so technically I have decent covers in his one offensive skill. But even a top tier 4* would have trouble beating Doom 1v1.
Mr Fantastic does have a stun attack. If he can tie Doom up before he gets his Demons off, he might get the job done eventually.
Though with his damage output it’s definitely going to take a while. May want to bring some damage boosts just to speed things up a bit.
