Variant 4 - Team Build Up Tips

Valmarx

I want to finally begin my Variants Road and I'd be starting with Variant 4 ( Electro / X-Pool one).
Which team I should be taking if I'm even ready for it...🙄

Thanks in advance.

Falcon in a good Electro counter. As is Hulk Rags.... The rest of your team isn't crucial for initial completion.

The key for variant 4 is having a handful or more of maxed out 1,2,3,4 stars.

For Xpool just make sure you bring someone who can spam heavies in the corner and you can cheese that fight entirely.

I filtered my 1-2-3-4 star champions lol...
I got maxed out 1* Hulk and Black Panter for last Chapters
Doom, Guillo 2099, Hyperion, Namor, SW all 4 * maxed out sig and rank for middle chapters.

U need to use someone who can do a non-contact attack for electro. Your Gulk's faceme ability would work for that node.
For DPX, u have CMM to heavy spam in the corner.

Many mentioned an Bleed Immune since he does a lot of Bleed damage.
My Bleed immune Champs are Corvus, Ghost, Magneto, Guillo 2099, Darkhawk & BWCV

I'm pretty sure Electro has force of will, so falcon is doing nothing.

But yeah, hulk rags destroys that fight!

You will only be able to use your 4*s on 2.1.2. You need 3* for 2.1.2 and 2* for 3.1.2...

For 3.1.2, the easiest path I found is the crit damage path, but you really need to have Rocket or Wasp.

If im not wrong, as someone who using Falcon, I think he takes normally damage from electro even on
daily basis while lock-on active

My only concern friends is the Electro & Deadpool X

dpx is just a matter of pushing him to the corner and heavy spam. It doesn't work every time, but is doable. Capt marvel or ghost should be great. I used 5* R3 corvus and it worked fine, but took 500+ hits cause all the charges drop and have to refresh. I knew he could push him back and keep the heavies up tho so it worked out. Just don't use champ's with short range heavies or ones that push back on them against the wall. Colossus did not work well for me because of the delay between the heavy hits and push back.

Someone with projectiles or non contact hits works great on electro. Domino is amazing for that fight. I would imagine so is havok (plus he enjoys energy damage too). Otherwise, us dot and dodge a lot of specials. He's very aggressive so as long as you don't push to sp3, you'll be ok, especially if you have a special with a projectile to reset the damage like GWenpools SP1.

You should eye up that Ghost for the Xpool fight

I think you're absolutely set. All you need is an electro counter and 1* hulk and you can do 100% explo. Chapter 2 is super easy and I'm assuming you have 5 maxed of each, but you really don't even need that. Ghulk will handle the electro boss and for the deadpool, just heavy spam in the corner

You can definitely do v4. I did it with a less built up roster than you. Use gulk for electro. It might take one or two revives but it’ll still work well. As others have said if you ideally want to heavy spam dpx in the corner. As someone who had a lot of trouble doing this, I ended up playing the fight normally with ghost. It was definitely not a fun fight and was the worst of the whole variant but it wasn’t too bad. Probably 4-5 revives.
