I have noticed lately that in PVP, the team-ups used by the AI have gotten more specific and powerful then a month ago. If i am fighting SW, almost always a KP poke, Fighting KK, you can bet on a thunderstrike team up, Psylocke pvp, enter more Loki trickery/moonstone control shift team ups then i have ever seen.. and they seem to be max covered.
Shield sim, i don’t think i had seen so many Rage of the Panther team ups used against me in my life?
What determines the AI team up and how many covers/levels it has?
The defending team-up is randomly selected from all characters – it doesn’t even check which ones the player has in stock. I too would like to know how the character and power levels are set.
anyone else experience getting 2 team up cast from the ai in the same match? had an insanely long LR match with a very dry board where they case both whales and … yes, rage of the panther (yeah - no colors of note on the board, especially green or blue or red while running patch/daken). was a seed team, so low level TUs but I thought that was really weird.
Demiurge_Will alluded to that there is at least one table that AI team-ups draw from randomly. This is every legitimate Team-Up in the game except for a selected handful (like Sentry’s Supernova that do team damage, people complained a ton, and they were removed). The covers are capped at 2, and the level is the level of the opposing team’s weakest character including boosts, capped at the star-level max. If characters are boosted that week their TU is also boosted.
There won’t be a Team-Up from the characters in the opposing team, and there is a tendency for certain character combinations to provide a smaller range of Team-Ups (possibly deliberately chosen by the devs). The main issue is that there are a lot more hefty AOEs, 4* Powers, and big single target hits than there used to be, and you can’t not notice every time a boosted Embiggened Bash / Rage of the Panther comes through.
Thank you for the explanation. I do think the part i quoted may have changed. AI team up of Clobberin Time doing 2900 damage, i don’t think that is 2 covers (just ate one, poor KK)
