Also see the new kang on here as well 👀
Lizard would be cool as an addition, Scorpion/Shocker/Kraven pop to mind aswell.
1. Hellcat or other associated Defender character such as Valkyrie. Also possible this some random EQ storyline associated Character
2. Possibly another Sigil exclusive champ, or Wiccan/Speed. White Vision is a possibility but I’m iffy on that one. Could also be MCU Scarlet Witch for Dr Strange 2. I’m going to bet Speed and you’ll see why once we reach 4 and 5
3. OC character, probably to do with Aegon’s story since Gabe has hinted there wa a character associated with Aegon being developed
4. Tying into 2, I think this is a member of the young avengers, my bet would Hulkling. Because…
5. Number 5 could be Wiccan. Hulkling and Wiccan are in a relationship in the comics, so the tying of these two question marks together would make sense. However, 4 could also just be Speed
6.I’m actually going to bet Ironheart here. She’s reportedly been cast for Black Panther 2, and being beside MCU spidey and Iron Man, without being directly connected to either would make sense
7.Sersi
8. Icarus. These two could be any character in the eternals really, but these two seem the most prominent. Sersi and Black Knight could be another pairing, Thena and the villain, the combinations are endless really
9. Probably the Dr Strange 2 villain. Shuma Gorath, Nightmare, etc. Could also be Captain Britain since mystical powers connection and was part of the illuminati for a time. But I think he’s coming later
10. It’s Kitty Pryde
11. Captain Britain. Has to be. Surely
12. Sam Wilson Captain America, or Captain Carter. Leaning towards Sam Wilson. Maybe Zemo...
13. Considering Diablo has a synergy with an unknown Legion Accursed member, and this square is right next to Juggernaut, I think we’re looking for a mutant who was part of the legion accursed. Who fits the bill? Blob.
14. Really any of Magneto’s acolytes or the Brotherhood of evil mutants. Toad, Polaris, Quicksilver even. Impossible to really narrow it down past that
15. It’s Nimrod
16. Ok, it could be Bastion, it could be Machine Mold. But you know who I think it is. Omega Sentinel. In fact, I think we might see all the champ vote champs that made it to the second round. So that would be Ironheart, Omega Sentinel and Morbius. And would you look at that, we have squares for all of them
17. Any Asgardian champion. Valkyrie, Beta Ray Bill has a significant chance. Could even be Surtur or Gorr. Because Love and Thunder is releasing in 2022, I think is probably Gorr, which means No. 1 could be the second champ for that month, Valkyrie
18.Alright, I’m staking my claim for Knull. I was hesitant, but with Mr Negative conformed for the left side of the puzzle, and another space for Sandman, I’m calling this shot
19. Anti-Venom. He’s here or he’s number 18. Confirmed.
20. 20, 21 and 22 are all likely to be Spider-Man related champions. One thing I’m fairly certain of is that one of them will be Sandman (Since Gabe has said they have previously tested making his model), and another is likely to be Morbius. Where out of these 3 I’m not sure. The third spot could be another spidey villain, companion, you name it. They’ll have to release something for No Way Home, and since we already got two Spider-people this year, I doubt it’s another Spider-Man. Considering Scorpion has already shown up in the MCU, he would maybe be my best bet, but I would love to see Black Cat
21. See above
22. See above above
23. It’s Galactus, who is determined to consume the Battlerealm with the passion of me taking a Physical Education class
24. Gabe has said this is someone who wasn’t directly a herald. So I don’t really have any idea. I’ve heard The Fallen One’s name banded about but I don’t know to be honest
25. Definitely isn’t last because I forgot to number this earlier. Shuri, Okoye, old Black Panther villain, It’ll be a character for Black Panther 2
There are 25 squares on this list, and one is Galactus, who I assume will not be playable, So that takes us August 2022, which is why I assume there is no ‘The Marvels’ film squares yet
So, what does the slate look like?
September 2021: Nimrod and Kitty Pryde
October 2021: Knull and Anti-Venom
November 2021: Icarus and Sersi
December 2021: Scorpion and Sandman (Maybe)
March 2022: Dr Strange 2 champs (Villain and MCU Scarlet Witch, Wiccan, Speed, both?)
May 2022: Thor Love and Thunder champs (I’m betting Valkyrie and Gorr)
July 2022: Wakanda Forever champs (Shuri and Ironheart/)
I’m very interested to hear other people’s theories though
As well hope to eventually see Killraven, Taserface (comics version), Deathlok (comics version) and plenty of others....so basically less "made up" characters.
Also wondering if characters such as Conan, Alien, Predator and Ultraman can be used (they are licensed at least through the comics). Alien/Predator are fox properties so surely those could be added to the game fairly "easily".
