Upcoming Character (Reckless Speculation and Guessing)

The arrival the the third Horseman is imminent! Let’s see some guesses as to who!

Will there be any synergy with the existing Horsemen and/or Apocalypse?

Are we heading towards an Apocalypse rework or even potentially a 6* version?

Most importantly, should we expect an absolute powerhouse like Famine???

Given that it their name was accidentally left in on the What’s New event prizes run down we can be pretty sure that it’s [redacted]!

Also, it’s a 4 star. The date will be Sept 30.

A 6 will be coming for Oct/Anniversary. A 6 Apocalypse isn’t in my mind impossible, we shall see.

I know “canon power level isn’t a factor in rarity” but he is closer to a 6 than Valkyrie is imo. Also Mojo, really.

In any case, it would be odd in a way to release all these new Horsemen and not release a new Apocalypse; but I’m not familiar enough with recent incarnations to know if any sufficiently different variants exist to be used as a 6 star Apocalypse.

No worries, if one doesn’t exist they can just make one!

Get ready for Peggy Carter (Apocalypse)!

Do you think they’ll simply go with Death (First Horsemen) as the anniversary 6-star character?

I’d have thought ‘Lady Death’ or even a Rio Vidal themed version would be preferable if they want the entity of Death itself as a 6-star, but they could always fudge it and have a gender swap costume.

The funny thing is, you could be right and that’s concerning.

I don’t think we can rule out Spider-Verse Apocalypse either

I’m sure they could find (or make) one. Maybe an Egyptian Apocalypse (First Mutant) or something like that.

I’ll start the Dracula talk we inevitability arrive to around this time. If we were to get Dracula as a character, what level would he be best? Is there even a want for Dracula to be in the game still, or have opinions changed? Personally, I wouldn’t mind if we got Dracula at a 2, 4, or 5.

No, joking aside it’s just 4 star Pestilence as mentioned above.

Barring the possibility that the published slip was an elaborate ruse.

But if the game runs long enough I’m sure there will be a 6 star Peggy. Probably as a Galactus Herald rather than Apocalypse’s heir though.

Plot twist, get ready for our Anniversary 6*: Quandry (Peggy Carter)

Okay well now I’m just curious, why not a 3*?:joy:

They aren’t released anymore? I guess I did kinda crap on the 3 stars by ignoring them. The more I think about it, the 3 would be a lot better than a 2 cuz you can get it to a 5 faster.

Unless you swap swap swap, you can get a 2as5 faster that a 3as5 because you can farm 2 star covers and the tier is still less diluted than the 3s.

Possible 6* guesses, before the end there was the beginning. 6* Genesis/Annihilation

X-Men (X of Swords Part 20 of 22). Issue #15, Nov 2020. Cover Artist: Leinil Francis Yu.


Or they can skip her and go straight to, 6* Revelation

World of Revelation (Age of Revelation Variant Cover). Issue #1, Oct 2025. Cover Artist: C.F. Villa

I always love your cover ideas/suggestions. Such thought and knowledge goes into them!

I think it’s super likely that whatever * the deathman is, it’ll be Gambit. I think they recently added him to Marvel Snap or something.

The Pestilence listing says (First Horseman) and it would be kind of weird to mix in Gambit with the seeming goal of adding the entire group of First Horsemen, since War and Famine are both from that group as well. My guess is their Death will be added at some point.
