So I’m sure everyone wants a “Stan Lee” character for the game, because let’s face it, it’s his universe, so here’ my proposal for a 4* Stan Lee.
So knowing that Stan Lee isn’t a superhero, but made all the superheroes (well Marvel did), why not give him EVERY power (well every 3* power). So he gets three random 3* powers every battle, but you don’t know what they are until you enter combat. This will mean that Stan Lee might be hard to master (unlike Inv. Woman or X-Force) and you’ll probably have to support him with other characters that are individually powerful, but it’ll be that more satisfying when you win. ![]()
The 3* powers are broken up into 3 catagories: Attack, Special Attack, and Utility/Defensive powers. His stat’s are all “average” for all 6 colors for a 4*. The one disadvantage to him would be he could have multiple powers that use the same color (see below). There would be some powers that couldn’t be used because they are really dependent on another power to be effective/awesome (colossus’ punch and mystique’s masterstrike).
“Attack” category includes any power that targets a single target. Such as: Cyclop’s Optic Blast, L.Thor Thunder Strike, Hulk’s Smash, Mohawk’s Mistress of the Elements/Lightning Strike, etc
“Special Attack” category includes any power that attacks the enemy team or drops a bunch of strike/attack tiles: Mohawk’s Hailstorm, L.Thor’s Call the Storm, HT Inferno, Blade’s Keep your enemies close, etc.
“Utilty/Defense” powers category would be any such powers, such as: GSBW Defensive Tactic’s, Spiderman’s Webslinger or Tied Up, Loki’s Illusion & Trickery, Patch’s Healing, Psylocke’s Bewilder, Steve Roger’s Peacemaker, Hulk’s Anger, etc.
To make it clear, his powers all are 4* strength, but 3* powers/titles. Some sample characters could look like this, AFTER you enter the battle:
“Stan Lee – The Extreme”
- Ironman40: Unibeam
- Beast: Animal Inside
- Mystique: Shapeshift
Or
- Cyclops’s: Full Blast
- Ironman40: Balistic Strike
- L.Daken’s: healing (can’t remember name ATM)
Or
- Rocket & Groot’s Green attack (can’t remember name ATM)
- Squirrel Girl’s Green Furry Little Friends
- Squirrel Girl’s Yellow Defensive power.
The picture could be hard to draw, Hulk’s torso, colossus’s leg, stan lee’s face (obviously), cyclop’s glasses, kamala khan’s arm w/ psylocke’s blade, wolverine’s arm w/ claw, etc.
Now to go with this, is my suggestion for Stan Lee is that he’s like the 4* Devil Dino, a specialty “Collectors” character. But make it easy to obtain and level, because he’s for fun (because doesn’t Stan Lee just scream “fun”?). ![]()
Have the introductory event on Stan’s birthday (if it hasn’t happened this year yet). Since he would be a “collectors” item, let people get him easily. To allow people to build him up, if people ever get a 4* that they can’t use, let them trade for a Stan Lee cover 1:1.
The programing for having multiple powers on one character might be hard (would need developers to chime in on that one).
Now to make it really funny, a “young” Stan Lee (copied from a photo when the company first started). He would be a 3* character, who had the same powers as all the 2* heroes/villians. ![]()
Oh: Full disclosure, I have twin 6yr old boys who are obsessed w/ the Lego Marvel Super Heroes game, that’s what inspired this. ![]()
