The gauntlet does not possess any of the set symbols allowed for the final round, and therefore is an illegal part of the team. The suggested build for the final is using pieces from the three last sets, which are Chaos War, Galactic Guardians, and Incredible Hulk.

I understand that some venues are not allowing it. I should have stated the restrictions...
As it stands right now, the format that I was told is...No Fast Forces figures, IG Gauntlet is allowed. Only figures from the Hulk, GG and CW are allowed. In this case, until they tell us otherwise, the Gauntlet is allowed.
On the map in question, Sentry/Void takes it almost every time. The double TK Blackbolt Bomb with Astral Doc Strange is pretty epic, but they will not have line of sight to either the upper or lower portion of the map (depending on what side you started on) so will not be able to get BB in line to Nova Blast until after Sentry/Void has had a chance to do his thing.
Also, even if he could reach, the four damage from the Nova Blast moves Sentry/Void past some of his weakest clicks and back into HSS with Multiattack. Ideally if you only have one way to damage Sentry/Void you want to be able to do 2 to 3 damage to him in order to put him on the Asgard Must Fall clicks.
Ok, here is another question, Enhancement only works if the person is beside the person making the ranged attack. So if I am correct, enhancement would not give the plus as soon as he moves away from the person. Correct?

Reason: spelling mistake
Yes, you have to be adjacent to the character using Enhancement when making a ranged attack in order to get the damage bonus from it.
So Cosmo the wonder dog would not be as useful as the Astral Dr. Strange with the Gauntlet and Xavin with his TK ability. Which is why I had gone that way with it. Thank you for clearing that up for me. Now, if Cosmo could tk a Duo attack character...Say Sentry and Void out then Sentry and Void moved back to the side of Cosmo, would they THEN get the bonus of enhancement?
The enhancement only kicks in when the attack is made, that's when it checks for adjacency. If you attack and then move Sentroid back to Cosmo, he would not be getting any enhancement.

But with the duo attack, he runs in close, makes a close combat attack, then moves back to make the Ranged combat attack from the duo ability, which I think that is one of the nasty reasons of this figure. So that is why I am wondering that part of it. This would then keep his damage to a 5 instead of the -1 for the second part of the attackers damage.
Oh yea, when working it like that, yes. So long as you make the attack while adjacent to Cosmo and it is a ranged attack, you will get the benefits of the enhancement.
I'd probably get rid of the Hawkeye, downgrade the gauntlet (You just need the TK), and throw on a better secondary attacker. Not that Hawkeye isn't good, he's a great figure. I just think that maybe a CW Quicksilver or Red Shift might be a better option for mobility. I'd probably switch the Xavin to a FF Scarlet Witch also, for the added prob.
Edit: Or you could throw on Prof. X from GSX, considering you'd be able to use his Cerebro ability with Black Bolt AND both A.I.M.'s, I believe the A.I.M. Renegade would be able to give him the damage boost also, correct me if I'm wrong please.

No, you are right on the money there. It is an enhancement figure along with barrier on the first click.
Edit: Also, only the GG, CW and the Hulk can be used at my venue, no Fast Forces figures. Now, I do like the idea that I downgrade the Gauntlet in this case with just the TK ability. And take a click to use it, but I also expect not to have the figure around after the first wave of the Pulsewave strikes and they get their turn on something like that.
Interesting question here, would Pulse Wave ignore First Turn Inmunity as it is a game effect? (I even think it doesnt even target, its just draws LoF).
