I’ve seen a few people say something like this. When you’re talking about “leveled pretty high” can you be more clear? I’ve been on the fence about bringing her up, but I need another villain and am debating her or Thor for the cosmic team.

At skill level 4 or 5 (I forget which, sorry) you get 2 evades and 2 counters per skill use.

Sure. Some characters have breakpoints where their skill go from crap to really REALLY good. Nebula has those, but they come really late when you're leveling her. So if you don't know that they're there and you get into the early game blue skill mats crunch then you're definitely not going to invest the purples you'd need to so you can get the most out of her.

A couple of other big jumps off the top oh my head:

Quake get an extra 130% earthquake dmg
Widow get an extra turn on her haste and two extra stacks of bleed on her stun.
Night Nurse gets two extra stacks of regen on her aoe heal
Thanos gets an extra .3 modifier added to his resistance bonus (brings it up to about 7k extra resistance at 60, which is insane)
Hawkeye's blind will hit every single person on the enemy team.

It's 40ish for the two counters and 50 for the 2 evades, which yeah is a huge investment.

Game Informer interviewed FoxNext a few months ago.
The usual kind of talk for this, but they discuss getting the X-Men license for the game (and how Marvel's basically not giving out Fantastic Four to anyone, rip Gaz).

quote:

Does the X-Men license loop in Deadpool?
It sure does. And with Deadpool 2 coming, we are going to do something really big for that.
Since Deadpool 2 releases Friday, I'm expecting something along X-Men lines, at least.

Speaking of cosmic, should I upgrade a healer for it? Right now I'm rocking Yondaddy, Thor, GamGam, Drax and Thomas. I'm only a few missions in so far.

Anything past three turns and Yondu can pop out a healer (or a beefed up Gunner to end the fight that much sooner)

We are 80%+ on level 50 raids so we need someone of reasonably high level that uses discord.

Star-lord can also blind, whenever they actually release him. Mordo has a blind theme too

Hawkeye seems like one of those characters that if you got him early he will have a permanent spot on your team but if you get him late you might as well not bother with him.. Because frankly, I have no idea who I'd bench for him. I can't even bring myself to bench Cap for Thanos even though his power level is much higher. Thanos and Drax head up my B team. Drax isn't very happy about it.

Nope. His powers were given to him in an experiment.

Wolverine was a mutant with healing powers, iirc. The experiment was for the adamantium additions. Unless this has been retconned or changed in whatever timeline.

No? Only the adamantium skeleton was given to Wolvie through an experiment. The healing, claws, and enhanced senses we're all mutant powers he was born with.

I thought the experiment just enabled his mutant powers? That's how I remember it playing in the movie at least. But I'm probably remembering wrong.

Fake edit: Googling around, consensus seems to be that he is considered a Mutate. "In the Marvel Universe, a mutate is anyone who started life as a genetically normal human being, who later received powers upon having their DNA being changed in an event."
