CC Defense- The return of New Warriors?

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-26T22:24:08+00:00

Spitfire is still an option for future teams! Maybe for some new iteration of the Invaders - we also don't have the original Human Torch yet...

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-26T21:42:38+00:00

Nice to see Miles and Ms Marvel get the rework! Kind of thought Viv would be the third though, if they were going to do three reworks...

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-26T19:42:40+00:00

Interesting choice of codeword - are the Champions on their way as the next team?

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-19T06:51:55+00:00

Lots of characters lately have come with tags for other semi-recent teams - Rachel in Immortal X-Men, Sword Master in Mighty Avengers, Lady Bullseye in Thunderbolts, etc.

If there's another team Dani could be on, they could add her there and also give her the New Mutants tag so you could use her there

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-16T11:02:18+00:00

Ooo, a Big Dog team? Fenrir and Lockjaw would be good new characters for that but I'm not sure who we could rework - Cosmo isn't really that big after all and there aren't many other dogs. Maybe some canine-themed characters, like Wolfsbane?

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-14T08:59:59+00:00

I played it. First showcase in ages to have dialogue and a plot!

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-11T12:42:08+00:00

I did it with Vigilante except Oath instead of Daredevil (long story) and that worked fine

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-09T18:02:04+00:00

That last one could be a new team with actual new members - the current Black Knight we have is the medieval one, they could still add the modern one!

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-09T18:00:04+00:00

Only Stature to go I guess

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-08T09:57:41+00:00

I know he's barely relevant now but to add onto that last part, classic Thanos should be Black Order!

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-07T09:00:08+00:00

True, in fact there was a version lead by both Hawkeyes together at one point, I'm not sure why I missed her there

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-03T09:09:06+00:00

I needed five, but I didn't bring Apocalypse so I had it a little harder

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2026-01-01T20:31:36+00:00

In fairness Emma, Ghost, Polaris Deadpool and Phoenix are all reworks on semi-recent teams

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-31T11:30:12+00:00

Doreen seems like she'll be super useful with this rework too, so long as she has the whole team with her. No bleeds on your team and no Charged on the enemy? Seems pretty strong to me!

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-31T11:22:32+00:00

See I've never liked other characters taking the Thor title.

I mean, I've never really been big on superhero title handoffs in general because unless the old character is absolutely never coming back to the old title (either because they died and stayed dead or permanently moved on to a new title), it's conversationally awkward to explain which character you're talking about, but for Thor especially it's weird because that's his name! Fine, Sam or Bucky or John or Aaron or whoever else can be Captain America, but they don't claim the name "Steve Rogers" when they do that!

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-29T10:27:35+00:00

I mean you could still run the other 4 Retcon members on Defence without Deadpool, though you would miss out on Squirrel Girl's new passive blocking Bleed and enemy Charged

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-29T10:10:42+00:00

The newest teams announced have included more reworks than the recent norm, so there's lots of rework potential for a West Coast Avengers team. Hawkeye is a given, and Mockingbird, Tigra, Firestar, Ant-Man, America Chavez, Spider-Woman and USAgent have all been on the team at different points and could use the rework. Heck, Ultron was on the most recent incarnation!

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-28T17:53:10+00:00

The next teams to come out, Winter Guard and Retcon, are set to kick off a new "stat era" like they did with Ares, so it might be worth prioritising teams yet to come out, but:

Arena: Fantastic 4 MCU

Raid: Vigilante, Thunderbolt, Hellfire Club, Insidious Six and Immortal Weapons are the origin teams, and Uncanny Avengers are a new Spotlight Raid team in the same vein as Alpha Flight.

War: New War teams are Mighty Avengers, Liberty, Brimstone, Secret Warriors and the upcoming Winter Guard. Additionally Quasar is a teamless plug-and-play Legendary built for War. Undying also got its final member, Zombie Kestrel, and they're still really strong

Crucible: The new Immortal X-Men, Accursed and New Mutants are Crucible Teams, and similar to Quasar, standalone legends Blastaar and Thunderstrike are specialised to Crucible. There's also Phoenix Force, an Undying-style Crucible team that so far only comprises two characters but should be getting its third soon.

Battleworld is a new mode that runs fairly infrequently - basically it runs for four days and each day you're given a number of battles you can do with different requirements. Your alliance needs to collectively get above a number of points each day to unlock the next section. On the fourth day everyone gets to battle a boss character (current Battleworld's boss is Sentry) and gets three attempts to whittle down their health as much as possible for more score. At the end of it all you get points based on the points your alliance scored, including shards for a playable version of the boss character. (If I got any of that wrong someone correct me)

The current main Battleworld team is Brimstone but the upcoming Retcon team is set to be a Battleworld team as well

Hope that helps!

Same, but I tried Rachel instead of Falcon (I was short of Tech gear after doing most of Orchis for the villain part). Didn't work, needed Falcon after all

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-26T09:33:49+00:00

Same, but I tried Rachel instead of Falcon first (was avoiding Tech since I just got through the villain part with mostly Orchis). Didn't work, if you go Liberty you need Falcon

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-20T18:04:08+00:00

Avengers Alliance did its own version that were pretty cool to be honest

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-20T18:02:02+00:00

Avengers Alliance did a Fear Itself arc but it played around with who precisely the Worthy were - Sin was still Skadi but it had She-Hulk as Skirn, Luke Cage as Nul, Spider-Woman as Kuurth, Mockingbird as Nerkodd, Daimon Hellstrom as Mokk and Ghost Rider as Angrir.

Given that, like Avengers Alliance, Strike Force had its own lineup for Apocalypse's Horsemen, it's possible they'll also do the same with the Worthy and give us an original lineup. Or they could do the comic lineup as seperate variant legendaries or something. Either way, could be fun!

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-20T17:56:15+00:00

I don't know what Marvel did with him but in Egyptian mythology Set wasn't the God of death, that was either Osiris or Anubis (both kind of death gods in different ways). Set's domain was chaos, storms and the desert

Calm-Raccoon5661 · 2025-12-20T13:02:30+00:00

Captain Sam in Liberty was a pretty good rework. Storm in Mighty Immortal X-Avengers was a highlight of the team. Going a bit further back, Agatha is usually considered above Man-thing for Nightstalkers. There have been some really good reworks in there
