A Heroic PVE without any viable buffed 4*? I’m tempted to skip this entire event if there wasn’t the Carol Danvers progression reward!

Personally, I am looking forward to running Rulk a lot. With 5* scaling he’s not as viable as he used to be… but in Heroics he can still shine. Thinking Cho and Miles will make good Sidekicks for him.

Cho and Red Hulk is great. I was wondering if Duke meant he doesn’t have any viable 4s for this, because we’ve had far worse lists for Heroics.

That´s exactly what I´ve meant. Besides of lacking a 4* champion this week, the 3* list (with the exception of Luke Cage) isn´t that good too. Does anyone already know who will be the reinforcement for Sub 1?

Sub 1 reinforcements

4* Kate Bishop
3* blade
2* storm

Rhulk, Cho and Colossus… so much HP.. this should be an easy event.

The 1* is Hawkeye, which likely won’t affect more forum users.

I’m really glad they changed the character restrictions. Having Ares blocked out would make the “General Mayhem” node much harder in Sub 1, at least for my selection of characters.

cant belive im playing this just fora 4 star yellow… well the 2 torches will get me another 50 hp

so i guess 200 hp and a yellow 4 star

Using Captain Marvel’s yellow to trigger Cho’s passive is mildly entertaining. “Count faster, dangit!”

Been doing a Cho/Red Hulk/Carol Cap for that same reason, it IS fun. Only drawback is that Rulk’s red is the strongest color for that team so her ap generation goes to waste, but I’m not giving up Rulk during his boost week.

I’m running Red Hulk, Carol (0/3/2) and MNMag. Carol’s yellow combined with bugged Magneto’s costs are pretty lethal and offer a lot of options. 8 red AP for up to 24 AP and 6 blue AP plus Carol’s yellow to wipe out the board and cause a load of cascades. I just use the two of them to keep everything under control until I have 18 green to finish the match.

Interesting indeed. I may have Nova replace Miles as the third guy behind Rulk and Chulk… Should work very well.

Nova will be a fantastic third with the hulk twins.

Always love having to fight Hood with 2 yellow feeders.

Don’t think I’ve got it in me to make full progression, so damn boring.

I am just totally Hooded out. It’s like banging your head against the wall.
