Only two contestants left! Here is Doom's chance for revenge...

I'd say Victorious. She's a Universal Supervillain which is handy for Shadowlands, AXB and she helps you to Unlock Doom.

Should I be burning bios on my 53 Jean Grey, a level 1 Stryfe, a level 1 Doom, or a 60 Thanos who won't be able to go T3 for a very long time?

He's a glass cannon, in my experience. Offensive output is pretty good, but there's very little survivability compared to my other options. He's nearly useless in arena because of it, and his leadership isn't very good because it only works on the F4. I don't have a great obelisk on him, but I have equipped urus on all gear and I don't think he's worth doing more work. I'm probably doing something wrong, but I'm super disappointed in him.

I couldn't disagree with this more. Mr. Fantastic is arguably my top guybfor physical even over Deadpool and Cap. His 5, 4, and 3 all have iframes and recharge quickly enough to rotate without ever really needing the others. His 5 does solid damage but his 6 does a TON of damage. Like wipes out half of WBU Thanos' health with a good hit. His leadership is limited but since he's the weapon it's a huge boost for him. But he also provides a big boost for a few key useful characters like The Torch and Spidey. He's also a huge Combat power in Timeline who I replaced Cap with and alternate with Cap Marvel.

He's probably a top 3 character for me with Deadpool and Wanda and over Cap, Quicksilver, Jean, Thor, and Cap Marvel.

Back in after nearly a year off. I'd forgotten just how much free stuff this game vomits at you! I stopped before Deadpool came out, I see Sharon and Cable have new costumes, what should I be aiming for? I only have Tony and Steve at T3 at the moment. Also if any goon alliances have space i'd love a spot.

Doctor Goons has room. Deadpool and Sharon's new costume will probably be the biggest helps towards beating all of the new content.

yeah mr f is i think the top physical damage dealer in the game at t3. his t3 does absolutely bonkers damage, but this means that hes pretty underwhelming at t2

I seem to recall having a lot of fun with him at T2 but I T3ed him ASAP so who knows? His 6 skill is definitely the key because it can just do a ton of damage if it hits right up there with Sharon's or Cap's, but without the charge or vulnerability.

Oh just realized that's definitely a straight forward pun and saw the pics in the background that weren't Rescue. Hope the new unis are good. It feels like the characters that got good Infinity War unis only got slight upgrades with their End Game unis, at least to me.

I went into the Reddit thread about that picture to see if anyone else had any insight into the clues.
All the top rated comments were talking about how good Rescue was in Avengers Alliance and then there were like 20+ posts talking about that game.
Good times.

Man I came back to Avengers Alliance after not playing it since around the time Psylocke was released in it just for them to shut it down a few months later. I never really got to experience what most of the characters in that game were like.

I know Fury is a good target for a mega rank up token but how is Nightcrawler? I’m just starting out so my only T2 characters are;

Sharon Rogers (kind of wish I knew we were getting a free t2 of her before I chose her as my heroes journey character a few weeks ago)
The Thing
Robbie Reyes


I figure a speedster t2 couldn’t hurt to help me start tackling the Shadowlands.


Vvvvv Got it, thanks. I’m currently leveling Marvel up and I have two T2 regular rank up tokens. I’m using one on Cap since he’s 1.5 gear levels away from being eligible and I picked up both his endgame costumes last week. I’ll save the other for Carol.

Fury (with or without his costume) is like a gazillion times better than Nightcrawler. Nightcrawler's costume makes him better, but still not Nick Fury level.
Plus Nick has one of the best Leadership skills and a T2 skill that makes all other characters better.

If you can, I would Tier 2 Captain Marvel and get her movie costume when it's on sale. It makes her so OP.

It’s Mysterio, I’m fully expecting his entire movie to be a long con.

I'm very curious how they pull Mysterio off without everyone in their audience completely expecting the heel turn. Unless the long con turns out to be a 'multiple-film' con.

Or Mysterio isn't the main villain.

Or since 616 Mysterio turned out to be Ultimate Mysterio, he's just a way to bring in Miles Morales.

Either way, if he goes T3, I'm dropping everything in pursuit of that. I look forward to him god-wrecking every rear end in a top hat in the world.

My first instict was "Mysterio is causing the monsters due to the long con" but yeh, anyone with a passing knowledge would see it coming, and the whole "hes from an alternate earth" thing might actually mean hes good guy Mysterio

You have to run them the slow way for uniform xp unless you are a super duper whale - VIP 17+, and even then it's limited to ~10 clears per VIP level past that.

Does it work if you have it on Repeat in slow mode? I know clearing doesn't work, but I've been trying to level the RagnaHulk uniform by Repeating the Slow Way. And does it only level up the uniform on the active character, or will the second and third teammates also get uni leveling?

I've been playing the Co-Op Play in slow mode to try and boost unis but just noticed today that it wasn't giving me any for the new unis I got, so boo.


I suppose now that I have a uniform for Beast I can start doing the X-Men runs again, which I haven't bothered with since I T2ed them all. I've been working on getting the New Avengers leveled - already T2ed Songbird and Wiccan, White Tiger is waiting for 1000 norns, and I'm working on Squirrel Girl and will go after Hulkling next for those. After that, it's just gathering enough Hidden Tickets to finish off the quests... and finishing up Gwenpool and Inferno. Got 'em both to 5 stars at the moment.

Feel free to request norns in the alliances, some of us have more than we'll ever use and there's achievements for filling requests. Probably doesnt give you a lot but can add up over the weeks.
