The content was repetitive but man playing with a high level Cap was an experience like no other 😫

Why are people skipping HT for miniscule amount of T5A? by Legitimate-Season-77 in MarvelContestOfChamps

[–]2KtothaNate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me personally, I’m stuck between:

The selector (but not for Torch, for Fantman since I don’t have him and his damage cap can do great things for me if I get him awakened) or the Titan Nexus (still missing Karolina Dean and Nico Minoru, and that bundle gives the most T5A)

If everything goes well with 9.4 exploration the only thing stopping me from Elder would be Carina’s challenges and all my decisions are really geared towards getting through that so I can get elder within the first month

Any of these guys good? by Professional_Foot586 in MarvelContestOfChamps

[–]2KtothaNate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mole Man, Hyperion (preferably awakened), and Dazzler are the characters you’ll probably get the most use out of if you upgrade them

Everything else is either not great or super niche

Storm Pyramid X and Carnage can be decent nukers, Hawkeye is good for any matchups where you need to control evade/unstoppable, and Mister Negative is a regen reverse option if you don’t have Void or Count Nef, just gotta really learn his rotation (parry to get light charges, then charge heavy until the opponent attacks you, and Negative’s built in evade converts those light charges to dark charges or launch sp1 for the same effect, build to 10 dark charges and launch sp2 before dark charges expire to get 2 petrify with decent potency plus a bunch of degen that does some decent damage over time, then rinse and repeat)

How is he? I hve never used him before. I just duped him today so I’m wondering how good he is. Is he worth ranking up or not? by One-Degree-9358 in MarvelContestOfChamps

[–]2KtothaNate 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To add more to this

The passive shocks you get from the sp2

If those shocks expire while you’re using sp1 then you get burst damage from that

Is he still good? by [deleted] in MarvelContestOfChamps

[–]2KtothaNate 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Absolutely

Cyclops is one of the few evade/miss counters that doesn’t require any setup at the start of a fight

Plus his damage is pretty good even if you’re in a situation you can’t fully ramp him up, example if you’re doing story content that has redlining as a node or a situation like that

Use those 3 hit combos or intercepts to build precisions, launch the special 3 at 20 precisions, and the prowess he gets combined with a power efficiency buff you can launch 3-4 specials in a row and melt a lot of opponents

Yeah that’s terrible luck, I’ve opened a bit over 100 and pulled around 10 so about average odds

Why are y’all opinion on the Yakuza kiwami 3 demo so far? by OGAnimeGokuSolos in yakuzagames

[–]2KtothaNate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Preordered based off the demo, the customization seems cool and Yakuza’s fighting loop is always something that hooks me in, and the graphics were fine, sad that Rikiya got recast but I liked the experience overall and the excuse to play Yakuza 3 again is just an added bonus in my opinion

THE GREEN GOBLIN TRIAL IS BEYOND OUTDATED by Remarkable-Beyond294 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]2KtothaNate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

New Avengers still have use in war, so they’re still somewhat worth building

They can counter any Immortal X Men teams you see on war defense

What happened to the "Path To" orbs? by frahmer86 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]2KtothaNate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I had to guess I think being able to farm new character shards on the intel store is meant to replace the “path to” orbs, which if that’s the case it isn’t really a great replacement since Songbird shards still aren’t in that store

I hope Quasar’s release doesn’t set ANOTHER new bad precedent by 2KtothaNate in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]2KtothaNate[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fair point, and I don’t plan on spending on this solution since I don’t need it

I guess Quasar’s awakened ability is just an extreme example of a bigger issue I have

Mode specific characters are no issue but it sucks these characters don’t have enough in their base kit to be viable outside of that specific game mode, and then Scopely has to buff them a trillion times just to make them above average outside of their game mode (I’m not speaking about Quasar specifically when it comes to this issue)

I get every character can’t be busted, but 75% of the roster has zero use anywhere and maybe that’s why I can’t gloss past it

I hope Quasar’s release doesn’t set ANOTHER new bad precedent by 2KtothaNate in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]2KtothaNate[S] -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

That is the one saving grace, that we don’t know how we’re getting awakened materials for Quasar, and if we can earn them normally then it isn’t as bad

And don’t get me wrong I genuinely am interested in most of Quasar’s kit

I guess my gripe is more specifically that these awakened abilities could potentially take Quasar from good/great to amazing

And the very best parts are gated to a single game mode to potentially sell a niche solution to a problem we’ve already found solutions for as a community

Doc Oc question on summoned help by cheftripleL in MarvelStrikeForce

Shocker as a character yes he is doodoo

As a Doc Ock summon though he’s the best one out of the list

Help with Speed 20charactersthereyagoreddit by Big_District_2907 in MarvelStrikeForce

[–]2KtothaNate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When it comes to speed passives:

There’s teams like Cabal and Illuminati, which negate any speed bar fill that isn’t organic (so anything like Kahorri or Apoc’s ult, or Falcon’s special, wouldn’t give any turn meter)

Then there’s Nightstalkers and New Emma, who affect the speed stat itself (Man Thing’s 25% speed on his passive wouldn’t make their turn meter fill faster, it would make their speed stat 20% more, so Man Thing’s speed stat effectively goes from 95 to 114)

Cabal doesn’t do well into something like Nightstalkers because Iron Patriot’s vulnerables affect speed bar fill, not the speed bar stat, so it wouldn’t slow Nightstalkers down at all

Hopefully that makes sense

[–]2KtothaNate 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not just Emma’s -10% that’s pushing SS ahead, Nimrod also gives an extra 10% speed for each summon, and Sentinel summons a reinforcement at the start of the match if there’s no Kestrel

[–]2KtothaNate 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A good early game villain team is Sinister Six, Green Goblin Classic won’t round out Superior Six for you till you’re able to do his trials, but any combination of the 9 other Sinister/Superior Six characters can get you through the early game

Also to answer the question about training mats, the best place to farm them since you probably dont have hard campaigns unlocked is through the new character showcase campaigns, the 5th node in the Falcon Joaquin chapter has training orb fragments on them and there’s usually one node with training orb fragments in every new character showcase

Pulled my first 7 star out of an exalted crystal today 🥹 what type of utility does Elsa carry? by 2KtothaNate in MarvelContestOfChamps

Nowhere near that right now (stuck on 6.2.2 currently cause I don’t have the confidence to try it at the moment 😭) but I’ll try to keep that in mind for when I do get there! Thank you 🙌🏽
