Doing Arena With and Without the EXPRESS MODE Results and A Suggestion
I know that with my 78 r5 4 stars I was able to put in around 1.1-1.2M points, and now without the express mode I was able to get 1.5M points. Of course being able to choose the team you're fighting changes your score but 400k difference is really huge imo. I think express mode always chooses the easiest team and we get very low points instead of the max we can get.
With express mode I was always fighting with 4 stars that have like 5-6k rating but with normal way I was able to fight with 8-9k rating 4 stars.
I think there should be a little adjustment, like another button on top of express mode to choose the hardest team instead of the easiest. I say a button and not make it built in because some people may not want it like a 7 star serpent could still make you lose points in arena if you don't have a good team at that moment.
I love the time saving we get from that mode but doing arena without express mode means I can get to the final milestone in 3 rounds instead of 4 with express. I think a paid feature should't have a flaw like this.
Just wanted point this little flaw (or maybe design choice) out, so that in the future maybe it can work better.

Kabam stated act 9 was the end of book 2. Or, rather the beginning of the end of book 2.

Re: Thoughts on the Doctor Strange rework?
I won’t deny that, seeing the damage with Cyclops when he’s fully ramped is really fun but unfortunately it’s not something you’ll be able to pull off in BGs most of the time and whenever you do you against the defenders he’s supposed to counter you will most likely lose a good amount of hp which if you’re being competitive just isn’t good enough. The utility is sort of already there, and he would’ve been great if he at least had the zeal passive Nico has so the thorns and bleed damage never decays and you recover 100% but in his current state he doesn’t even make the top 10 list there are way better mutants than him. Strange on the other hand will definitely make the top 10 maybe even the top 5 purely because of all the buff and power control, and block regen he has:
- He is going to be one of the most reliable Serpent counters only after Nico.
- He will potentially be the best Imperiosa counter who is really nasty on metas where she actually gets to throw her specials, that block penetration is nasty.
- Most of the current top mystic champs rely on power steal heavily making them not that effective for Hulkling, Strange doesn’t which will make him one of the best and safest Hulkling counters out there.
So yeah, I can see where you’re coming from but I think Strange overall is going to have a lot of value compared to someone like Cyclops who gets outshined not just by the top 5 mutants but the 6-10 ones as well. Strange might not make it to the top 5 but he’s definitely somewhere in 6-10.
Now, if you’re talking about the fun aspect purely yeah he’s very fun especially in long fights where you can ramp him up fully and spam specials back to back so I won’t argue that. I just think whoever designed his kit missed the mark in terms of utility, a prowess based mutant with no daunted in 2024 who can’t counter thorns and block damage fully is criminal.
Re: Thoughts on the Doctor Strange rework?
He would feel so much better if he had just automatically had a fractured power, not sure why they decided to go with the double tap instead it’s not like he’s this Tigra level attacker so you need to add some complexity to his playstyle. He’s really just there to nuke Serpent and Hulkling, not sure how well he can handle Dark Phoenix and Thanos. Other than that tho, huge W, already can see him being more relevant than Cyclops was when his buff was released
