The good: New PVE! Only 3x easy nodes, 1 hard node, 1 hard wave and 1 boss node (plus 4xEssentials)
The bad: Kaecilius is a fun mechanic, and it is so refreshing to have fast matches. Too bad though that we need to resort to 3* rosters to fight him.
The ugly: Those mindless ones. PLEASE. Oh god. Fix them. Waiting an extra passive 3-4 seconds per match when the game enforces timing is so infuriating. Why introduce a new engine, teasing us with the nagging animations of them, and not fixing this? Please address this.
I’d love to know why we are given a loaner Spidey 2099 for the Kaecillius fight when you still can’t stun K-silly, and Spidey isn’t contributing anything to that battle that other characters won’t do better.
Does Sabretooths board destroy actually hurt K when a strike tile is removed that way? Or is his utility only possible board shake? Sure, if board shake counts there are many 4’s.
But apart from Elektra I don’t see many chars at 4 or 5 which can create enemy strike tiles (which is usually not the most clever way to do, donating strikes to the enemy ). But then again, I only use 5% of my 4* roster, like anybody who’s forced to compete about timed PVE grind or PVP where at the 5* level all you use is Thorkoye and Gritty anyways.
His ability to easily add weak strike tiles is very helpful, the board shake doesn’t do extra damage, but helps shake the board up. It’s mostly his black that’s best.
I used him with Thor and Okoye, but I bet Domino and maybe C&D will help as black AP batteries. Or Domino and a mitigator like Rouge, or maybe even Kraven.
I forgot about new combos. Im so used to doing the same thing against (as he was called earlier) K-Silly, that i just rhythmically went right back to it.
Elektr4, Patch, SWitch. That extra purple generated gets Elek’s cheap strikes out faster, and when her CD expires, any purp strikes around get matched too. Hasnt failed me yet.
Maybe i’ll change next time. I have Sabre. I have Coulson. I have plenty of options. Its just a comfortable easy cycle for me currently.
Questions:
Is the Boss fight on the Sub page? Or on the main event page, a la Strange Sights?
Or is there a Boss fight for the Sub, and also a boss fight on the main page?
Is O’Hara 4E for the Kaecilius fight?
No losses even with the horrible team including Kitty. It seems to me that Sabre’s board destruction does double dip damage if it destroys a second attack tile.
It happened enough times that I’m fairly confident it was the case. The only other possibility is that the tiles that dropped made another match and destroyed another strike tile. It seems unlikely that would happen reliably though.
