Now that a L15 blaster can guarantee crits, I am changing my iso strategy to target 1800 on accuracy (even with deadly crits). On heroes with deadly crits I was targeting 1900-2000. Has anyone else changed their iso (or other) strategy with L15?
Save the gold and go with Option 2. Also, Chase & Elsa are a lot more fun to use/level than Punisher & Wasp
Asw, especially because she can be paired with anyone + exploit webs a-iso. Which works so great on her L2 i stopped using her L9. she can take out most in a 2-turn round 1 and her webs remove the tactician advantage.
Elsa and Angela are fun.
This was an amazing tournament for me. May brought home the adamtium.

After the nerf, I could 100-0% any class of Karn. My team of choice was:
Agent Gen Empowered (Mysterium Manifold, CC Box, Q Jumper, Sat Support)
Dr. Strange (L1 Ion A-Iso, Enchanted E-Iso)
Deathlok (L1 Sharp A-Iso, L6 Aiming A-Iso)
The agent was there to take flack and setup the two hitters. With the MM and Deathlok's combat analysis, I never had to worry about healing b/c Karn rarely hit me. DL is enjoyable at L14 against a GB.
L300 around 1,100 0.30%. silver armory with full L14 roster. I have attack losses with other teams as i use pvp to get Xp for new heroes, but when I'm ready to make my run, the above team is around 60-0.
I miss the snappy tact uniform, but extra turns proc for both molly and the agent with big n fast. you want molly to go after the agent to get the first round QA tantrum. i find i dont try out new gear too often even though i farm it. so i like to read other setups. I'll give yours a try.
Agent Bruiser Safe w/big n fast e-iso
soa, wcd, mystic, mark of brotherhood
Molly w/big n fast e-iso, bursting a-iso L9
Haif bruiser (usually L9,L2 biggest enemy threat with mollys free enraged)
i havent lost a atk battle with this team. most end in round 1. but some take a bit of strategy to survive bad turn order. haif L6 comes in play and the cooldown is not shared with the L9,L6.
I'm using QJ in the 2nd and 4th rounds to get 7 turns. Current setup = Emp Tact (QJ, PA, Bifurcator, WBA). The question is which item to remove for MFG (use 1st & 4th rnd) or Shep Staff (use 2nd rnd).
Same boat here, I typically take around 60% from that HE with IM taking 7 turns (1,2,1,2,1). After reading this page and combing through the forum, a way to improve the IM strategy is by getting him more turns... enter Star-Lord, Taskmaster, MFG, or Shep Staff. I haven't tried any of them yet, but removing HAIF would require the agent to add a debuff removal item (SoA, cube, etc.).
Other teams worth looking into:
Hogun / Fandral (I'm concerned about En Garde not working 100%) or Spiral
HAIF / Hogun or Psylock
Peast / Fandral or Satana
I wonder if they have seen a significant drop in PVP players due to the pre-seasons issues. I'm calculating around 300K players for this pre-season. I though the numbers were closer to 1M in previous seasons.
I hope their plan comes together. It would be ironic if the tournament worked as designed only to have some Angel-like snafu when it ended.
When it comes to the various Group Boss, HAIF does better with the Masterful E-Iso. Unfortunately, it costs gold but pressure points (exposed) can go a long way.
So The Agent did something that destroyed the universe. The real question is what did he/she do?
Ignore Incursions?
After farming the goodies, my agent hasn't touched one if not required.
Evo escapes too fast for IM to do real damage. I can bring HE down 5% no problem, but I’d like to do more.
To bring the GB down 50% to 100% with IM, he needs 6 to 8 stacks of U-Beam focus. 6 stacks are achieved with QJ and more with IM's E-Iso vs.High Evo's who use Energy/Electric attacks (Tact, Blaster, Scrapper, Inf). I've taken 62%off the Bruiser with 6 stacks (Tact IM).
Lol. Liefeld made it on the list twice (#6, and #12).
Which is good news for a group boss SO. Time to farm some L15 silver.
Write a ticket to PD. Explain your situation without being rude, and ask if you can get the ISO's back. They don't give specific items but they will compensate you with gold. Good luck.
There is an issue with being in PVP and adding ISO-8 to heroes & agent. It is applying the new stats at the level 60 cap value. In other words, if you are level 180, and add a reactive ISO-8 to Iceman, it will give him a level 60 reactive ISO-8. Then in the tournament, that will get scaled down to level 20.
So at this time, make sure you are in PVE when adding ISO-8.
That's okay Brick, I feel bad knowing who Bob Saget is. I've never seen his stand-up work, but his TV career was not funny.
I asked the same question on the forum and was provided with the following:
Ignore Defense PVE
Ignore Defense PVP
_* Including the PVP bonuses is speculation and would indicate that Ignore Defense is becoming less valuable as the Armory and Hero Bonuses continue to increase. Looks like it's time to run WBA against some high armory and low armory foes, to see how the results differ. If Ignore Defense does not ignore those bonuses then it would give me reason to keep some heroes as bruisers.
