Polaris and Blink TK Iron Man and Northstar into the mix. Domino for PC and Brainiac for Outwit. It's a pretty straightforward team/strategy. This is my first attempt at a real team.

Can anyone critique it for me? Is there a better combo or differant characters that I should throw in?

Looks good I'd just optimize it a little. I'm not a big fan of the (R) Polaris, I'd rather swap in (R) Jean as my second TK piece and get Blink to Veteran, where she is a very effective secondary attacker. Also Domino will most likely be riding around with Iron Man and/or Northstar and will have few opportunities to X-Men with either of them. Downgrading her to Rookie will give us a little more left over for support.

Here's what I came up with:

(U) Ultimate Iron Man
(V) Blink
(E) Northstar
(R) Brainiac 5
(R) Domino
(R) Jean Grey
(E) DEO Agent (late game support may come in handy, as will Police team)
(Pog) Mary Jane Parker (use to get back a push on an X-Men, she can move for free or move through hindering, OR use PD to boost somebodies attack)

Thats 8 figs @ 400 on the nose ... Your weakness will be a decided lack of stealth (esp. on Brainiac) ... You may want to think about swapping out DEO for a normal Con Artist and getting Alfred in the mix. If you see alot of Thor and Trick Shot it might not even matter.

Good luck !

WAIT, WHY NOT! 50 POINTS, SHES GOT TK, AND SHE CAN DO 4 DAMAGE??? SHES SO OVERLOOKED! I dunno...I think shes a great char, and I use her over jean grey anytime, unless im wanting to use the V for support...

One TK'er is going to be stuck working. Jean is nigh impossible to hit with her 19 in the hindering, she is the worker TK. Blink is the secondary TK (probably phasing 5-8 squares out on the first turn behind a wall preferably) you could swap it and play Polaris and Jean. I just like V Blink she is a monster, double target thick damage SS and 17 on hindering and can *always* get away (don't underestimate having that 6th click either.

Since Ultimate Iron Man is your big gun, you're going to want to have either some enhancement (preferably) or SHIELD team to pump up his double energy explosion.

Not sure why your squad would need the double TK since both of your attackers already have good movement powers. Blink is very nice in all versions though. How about?

The E version of Brainiac will probably stay on the table longer with the click of Mastermind.

Not sure you're really going to need the TK and I'd be tempted to drop it all together.

Yeah good take on the concept ... Also look at the (V) U-Man he is quite retarded for 22 pnts. The TK is great for getting Northstar out of the gate in a hurry (usually to ace the other guys Panther / Outwitter). Nice thing about Blink is that once she TK's everyone worthy of TK'ing out of the starting area she can rest then phase right into battle taking out injured enemies en masse. The Northstar + TK usually gets him to the target and leaves him with enough move to get back around a corner or back up then soar.

That's a good point. Then you can have Brainiac carry her forward so she isn't stuck in the back row.

I'd be tempted to drop Psylocke to U-Man in order to bump Blink up to the Vet.

But, Psylocke just brings so much more to the table than U-man (Stealth plus a great secondary attacker for when Iron Man is resting).

Thanks for all of the input. I was thinking about throwing in a shield medic for the bonus. I do like the dea agent, though. I also like V Blink the more that I look at her. Getting rid of Polaris might also be a good idea. Yes she has 4 damage but I think that V Havoc would be a better choice. I just never manage to get her in postition to DO her 4 damage. Since I don't tend to do anything with Domino besides use her PC I'll probably start using the rookie. I just picked up a V Robin so I'll take him to get stealth on Brainiac.

Here's the second revision of the team.

Please please please let me know what you think .

True, but take out Vet Psylocke, and put in V umen, and V Hand ninja, and there, range attack booster, cleap up and tier up piece.....

Heck, you can even put hepziba in, instead of the hand ninja...

Out with Iron Man. His attack drops like a rock when he gets hit. Use Despero or Mags. They're the same price.

I would go with despero!!!!, and give him auto regen, to keep him going for longer!!!

The only reason that I picked iron man is because I just pulled him and I wanted to try him out. I also like the ultimates team ability. Then again I could just take V Hawkeye and someone else with charge or running shot. Puck might be a good choice.

Try E/V hawkeye + Shehulk combo!!!!
