    I just fought normally. There wasn’t too much damage taken from them. Korg was easy.

    Doable? Potential problem spots?

    I brought this very team except had warlock instead of mags. I only use warlock at NC and domino, and I could have easily used someone else. Mags wouldn’t be needed for many fights either.

    Does the Apoc fight need a specific counter or can it be done with Ægon?

    R2 Groot
    R3 Joe fixit
    R3 Beast
    R2 Juggs

    Very doable. I did it with Aegon, AA, Apoc, Namor, Prof X.

    Prof X was a wasted slot. I could had brought in Torch or Red Magneto. That Korg fight is the worst fight in the whole challenge for me.

    Is there a consensus on which main fighter would be better between Ghost and Ægon?

    I have doubts whether to take prof x as I also not sure that I will use him with team aegon, ghulk, apoc, aa, prof x. I am thinking maybe switch prof x with proxima as will be easier to ramp up aegon. Does korg easier with apoc and aegon or prof x? And nameless thanos does he has revert controls or not hard to brute force with aegon?

    I'm tempted to go with something similar also.
    - AA
    - Gulk
    - Aegon
    - Red Mags
    - Apoc

    My team was Ghost Wasp, Gulk, Mags and HT.

    Spend around ~50 revives. No suicides.

    Spiderham Korg Mojo (didn't get a Solo and from there on it becomes problematic) KM where my main problems.

    Don't forget to use class special boosts :)

    I had:
    - Red Mags
    - Aegon
    - Warlock
    - Namor
    - AA

    Ramped up Aegon on Vision.
    Took Red Mags for Doom but he was a passenger for the rest. Wish I took a better Korg counter like Prof X as that is what I struggled with most.

    Combo protection from proxima would help at the weapon x ramp up. I was throwing team revives against korg. I still can’t evade sp1 consistently. I can manage the mix master but throwing in flux dispersal and gauss warp too made it a very difficult fight.

    Aegon at 999 will destroy nameless thanos. One of the easiest fight. There is no inverted controls.

    @Jumptheshark how did you do Korg with Aegon? Just asking. Light intercept to remove rock charges?

    I just fought normally. There wasn’t too much damage taken from them. Korg was easy.
    I'm still tossing up whether I should take Doom or Apoc... as I can see that some fights that I would have used Apoc, I would used ramped Aegon.... and the same goes for Doom, the fights I would do with him I take ramped Aegon.

    Who did you use Apoc for that Aegon wouldn't have worked for?

    I used him for the modok fight, which is very easy with apocalypse but trickier with aegon.

    It was primarily to make archangel a lot better though, because archangel was so important to my plan.

    If I had to do it over, I’d take sorceror supreme for terrax over namor because I’m sure she would come in handy later.

    What was your combo after vision?

    I finished it. My team was apoc, aegon, aa, proxima and ghulk. Ghulk only for terrax, proxima to ramp up aegon easier. 25 revs, 1600 units. Aegon ramp did on vision around 200 and than added some with modok, ham. With weapon x I failed to ramp up aegon. I was bad with him. But aegon had 500 combo already so that was not critical. Korg was total bs, mojo solo with aa, Sasquatch with aa also not hard, 1 rev. Dragon man took also some revs, was not easy

    Against domino apoc much more better, aegon will die to fast, with apoc it can be solo

    I wanna throw out that Doc Ock is actually an easy solo on Terrax and Vision. After Terrax's first rock field ends, power lock him the rest of the fight and it's no joke, that simple. Yes I thought as Ock is metal he wouldn't work but I said why not just test it and yup, 100% power lock. You can even parry Terrax to death as Ock's block is extremly high with an armor up.

    I haven't gotten to lane two yet as I'm testing but I imagine Ock would be useful for Dragon Man also.

    IF kabam had fixed his life steal then he would have worked beautifully for Weapon X and Sasquatch. Sasquatch in particular would have been super easy because the regen would have kept Ock at 100% for the entire last 30%. I can't remember the BPCW nodes to well but again, if the life steal was working then it's free healing and no evade as he would be power locked in the corner.

    How did doc ock vs dragon man go??

    Nice. I think I have my team figured out then. I do have Quake available, I just don't think I'm comfortable sustaining it for the necessary amount of time. I would rather wear some pain earlier on with Aegon for an easier time later on.

    So how effective is aegon if you ramp him to 999 on weapon x ?

    Very effective. Thing was super easy. He only build a rock stack on every 5-6 hits. Fury didn’t build up his tactical charges. Spider Gwen, ibom, bpcw, and other fights became easier. Nameless Thanos was one of the easiest fight.

    Ah thats good to know as he’s not as commonly listed as a champ to bring as much as other champs like prof/apoc/doom/mags/aa/quake/ghost etc.

    How did aegon handle dragon man @zuffy ? I'm still figuring out if to carry Prof X for his prowesses and power control or brute force with aegon at that fight.

    Right now I'm thinking apoc, AA, namor, aegon, prof x/red mags.

    I end up using a couple of revives. He wouldn’t throw his sp1 nor his sp2. The power gain just keep increase the power so I end up eating his sp3.

    I was worried about dragon man but aegon handled it quite easily. I was able to bait specials and the power wasn’t an issue. That may vary if the AI is more passive.

    How would this team work out. I am a Quaker and love ghost and run suicides.

    R5 Quake, r3 ghost, r5 wasp, r3 apoc , r2 cable

    Or

    Quake, apoc, cable, r5 aegon, r3 cgr

    Can I quake terrax and would I need to remove suicides for void fight?

    I have all the god tiers at r5 or r2 so feel free to sub whoever. Falcon, doom, Clair, colossus, profx etc.

    The problem with quake against terrax is he has powerful from afar. IDK if quakes concussion will stop that but if she doesn't, he just going to keep gaining power and throwing specials. Doable with some revives but better to use namor and ghulk. Terrax is ultra aggressive in rock phase so four hit combo backdraft is reliable.

    For the void fight, just throw on a power booster for ghost and go. Don't take suicides off. Get to that special two quick as possible then let it rip. Maybe use a 150% cuz it might be too much power. Cycle sp2s and he's dead.
    Concussion stops powerful from afar. Also terrax power bar is greyed out at the start of the fight so if you start quaking from then, there’s really no problem. He cant use any specials until he is drained to zero first and by then both of you are in the corner and powerful from afar doesn’t come into play anymore

    So I’m working on trying to put a team together, but one piece would need to be ranked, and not sure if I would be better served with other options instead. To preface, I have no aegon, apoc, and 0 quake skills.


    My plan is to r5 aa, but not sure whether this team will handle the whole path or not. I do have a 6* r3 HT, but he’s unawakened, so not sure of his viability for the path, if I can’t get that prefight back, thus my choice of aa.
