Updated Synergies

So many characters have had added context in the wake of the expanding Cinematic Universe and the expanding roster in-game. I think one of the best additions to the game would be to add in or replace synergies that could amplify otherwise obsolete champions. Ant Man is a wonderful example of a poor standalone champion that has a strong role with the Quantum Trinity. The Thing and Human Torch are both really good champions that get to play off each other in a fight during their specials, and I think this was maybe the most inventive addition to the game in the last year. Taking this ball and running with it with older champions might restore their potential or at least bring them closer to the meta.
Characters like Black Widow make sense to not be on the same power level as Captain Marvel, but Black Widow alongside Hawkeye/Ronin, that's an extremely powerful combo.
Black Panther is not great on his own, but with Winter Soldier White Wolf by his side (BP CW) or Storm (Classic BP), these teamups should have synergies that make them much stronger.
This would also be a great way to...
1. Disregard giving old champs full updates that you'd rather not spend time and money on.
2. Improve 2 champions with one stone in a satisfying way.
3. Cut back on the need to rerelease champions with a new skin (Like Cyclops, Deadpool, Black Panther) even if they do have some improved functionality like BP and Wolverine/Logan.
4. (If you note the points I made in my previous post about Alternate Appearances) You can also make headway into the updating models/textures department for the new status-quo of character appearances. For example, if you have the synergy with BW and Ronin, give BW her Infinity War look and Ronin an unmasked look.
United We Stand, no?
