I've been out of the game competitively for a bit, but I've been keeping up purchase-wise; I have a lot: batteries, Rock, Box, Millenium Falcon rock thing, etc...

Anyway, I'm just curious what it's looking like. If not exact teams, what type of combos, especially with JLTW out?

Thanks, I just wanna start trying cool things out.

Assume no entities on my teams as I have a couple coming in trade but not yet, and I dunno... but I have the Orange Battery with all constructs, and almost full Blue and Indigo, and a Green with a few (just pulled Abin Sur prime last night!)

Nice, I still need to get Abin Sur and the wall.

Entities are still all the rage, as are resources. I often see an entity on every character on a team, sometimes two or three on one character. The Batteries are the new hotness so they're still very common, but I'm seeing all different colors, not just one or two consistently, which I guess is good since it means there's some variety going on, kinda. Meaning it's still min-max, build to stomp as quickly as possible.

Watch out for Despotellis. Only 30pts, fits in most any team and a real annoyance.

Take a look at what's making the Top 10 in ROC events.

However, it's a bit too early to determine what TW items will make a splash, other than tw051 Batman @ 85 points (aka "Engineer 2.0").

FF Atomica, Johnny Quick (Rare) and Greed look very promising.

I'm looking at Roc events, but they're no tactics so it's harder to decipher, you know?

What are some good combos of resources/other pieces, using, say: JLTW Batman (or anything from this set honestly... I really wanted to put a hammer - or maybe something else - on my Envy chase), or The Engineer. I really want to use my Orange battery because shutting down indom when all else fails is great.

I also kinda wanna try using my Cat Prime if I can, or maybe the CSA anti-resource Deathstorm

Multiple entities seems like a waste. You still only get to pick one power and one ability to boost.

Engineer and the Orange PB give you the best chance at preventing a number of effects. I'd assign someone the Spotlight early in the game, to prevent Targeting.

slosh039 Bizarro @ 25 pts is still solid, as he will provide Movement that you can prevent, as well. If you wanted to "enlarge" characters, any Spider-Bot is a good investment (prevent Tiny Size).
