    PIECING TOGETHER MARVEL PUZZLE QUEST: AGE OF ULTRON

Mystique is the only purple generator that I know of, and she is unreliable. I don’t see her purple as nearly as effective as stormneto. I think they are trying to create the higher risk/reward style of classic storm. Both can do some tile destruction for AP, but with random outcomes. I can’t count how many times I have thrown out a hail mary on a CD with storm. Still SW looks way more playable than QS. His tile locking usually does nothing but prevent me from making useful matches.

I like the concept so far for the new style of play as well. It doesn’t sound quite as grindy as a regular pve, but then again it may turn out to be the exact opposite.

Super long stun is nice, as long as it’s not random.

Hopefully her green is targetable. I like choosing tiles. icon_e_biggrin.gif

Would really like clarification as to whether the green will ONLY destroy surrounding specials.

pre-prerelease info.

Wanda fires an unstable hex bolt at her target. Select one basic tile to destroy it and up to ??? random basic, enemy Attack, enemy Protect, or enemy Strike tiles around it, generating AP.
Wanda fires an unstable hex bolt at her target. Select one basic tile to destroy it and up to ??? random non-friendly tiles around it, generating AP. ( I think they forgot mentioning the basic tile here)

Maybe they’re saying that basic tiles are neutral, thus non-friendly?

Good point.

EVERYONE PLZ CROSS YOUR FINGERS SHE WONT BE NERFED LIKE HER FAMILY

Really liking her Blue.

who am I kidding…she generates purple. She’ll get nerfed. Then Iron Fist’ll get nerfed…sigh

why does scarlet witch not have red as one of her colors?

edit: also, looking forward to hitting a group of charged tiles with a hex bolt. i thought this is why they nerfed twin pistols?

Wow, possibly great. Translation - nerf fodder.

Oh a very good purple producer. I wonder who I’ll pair her with

I guess it depends on how many purple it creates, but if that CD tile starts anywhere lower than 3, this seems like a potentially broken (nerfable) ability

I would expect 3-turn countdown at Rank 3, and reduced to a 2-turn countdown for Rank 5. From the way the description is worded I would expect that it only creates 3 or 4 purple tiles.

I don’t think it will be quite as useful for rushing Purple as some people think, but will certainly help generate a few extra AP every few turns.

Her CD will be excellent fodder for Kingpin. icon_e_surprised.gif

Is there any information from the dev that SW is not going to be a 2*? Considering the comparison to C.Storm’s Wind Storm for her Purple, I’m afraid she may be a new Glass Cannon of a 2*.

From what I could understand, it works like this: you select one basic tile and the power destroys it and a few surrounding tiles but NOT in a 3x3 square shape, or it wouldnt be chaotic at all. Depending on level it will be or not be able to destroy some types of tiles, but at max level every tile can be destroyed.

I can see it being something like

Green tile is the selected tile, the green criticals are what I think would be a pattern to be the target tiles it will attempt to destroy; black tiles are the unaffected tiles. That I would call chaotic enough, tricky to use but not too hard to get used to.

Click the link. The screenshots clearly show her being a 3*.

And has 8600 HP on max level.

You would call that perfect diamond shape chaotic?

I think it creates purple tiles randomly in a radius around the tile. That’s chaotic.

doesn’t matter if it’s useful, d3 will nerf any ap tricks we discover so like others in this thread said she gonna get nerfed
