Counters for 6.1.1 No Retreat

I recently completed Act 5. Now I'm on 6.1.1 and struggling with the node. Which path do I take (i tried the agent venom one but red skull was very very difficult) and is there any counters? Here is my 5 and 6 star roster.

Rank Kitty, Torch and QS. Kitty is one of the best champs in the game, Torch is a great lane clearer, and QS can deal massive amounts of whiplash damage. Also, how do you have 6* Kang

There's a few counters but you don't have any of them from what I can see there.
On my first push for cav I just took block damage and tried not to dash back, took me a few tries but eventually did it without any revives or boosts, and yes I took Agent Venom and Red Skull too that's the easiest path so if you can't do that one, you probably won't be able to do the rest.
I suggest you go for Act 5 exploration first until you have a better roster, it's either that or using revives and boosts.

What are the counters? I will see what I can get

Well, when I went for 6.1 exploration I used Negative (high sig), Ham and Knull. Maybe there's more but those three made the whole quest a piece of cake. OG Hulk is going to have degen resistance after his buff so he might be a solid option as well.
Focus on Act 5 exploration meanwhile, cause even if you want to do it without counters you need r5 5* to do it unless you're a God at the game which let's face 80% of the playerbase is not.

Heya Monkedude

I took the path Joe Fixit to Winter Soldier.
With the global node you just have to make sure you don’t dash back 2 times in a row and be careful agains special attacks.

JOE FIXIT
Fairly simple just watch out for the global node and bait his Special 1 attacks and block them. Sp2 you can’t really dodge because it would activate the Degeneration.
I recommend using your Shang chi, Xbones or just a top champ that isn’t mystic.

MORDO
Watch out for explosive personality and the global node. Try to keep him to sp1 if you can otherwise you have to double dex his sp2.
I don’t know longshot too well but he can probably nullify his armour if you accidentally hit his block, otherwise Shang chi’s slow will be useful to remove his astral evade.

HAWKEYE
He could be tough with your roster as you need to bleed him or take block damage.
Squirrel girl has bleeds but I’m unsure how good they are. Anyone who has good bleed damage or block damage can take him but keep an eye out for the nodes.
Shang chi deals high damage through the block on sp2.

HULK
you need a heal blocker otherwise you will take a big chunk of damage in the last 15%. Also watch out for the global node again. Fairly easy defender but try to keep him to sp2 as it’s a 1 hit special meaning 1 dex.
Your best options are kitty (phase the degen at the end for minimal damage), Howard the duck if he is ranked up a bit or any other heal blocker/reverser

CIVIL WARRIOR
you either need a heal blocker or a champ that can put damage the arc overload regen. Watch out for the bubble shield and dex on your 10th block. Watch out for the global node too. Bait sp1 or 2.
Your best counters are longshot, Howard and any other heal blocker

WINTER SOLDIER
keep him to sp1 if you can. Watch out for masochism and limber node (you can’t parry). Kitty is by far your best option and should be easy with her otherwise omega red or any other strong champs that aren’t science.

SABERTOOTH (BOSS)
Not too hard, watch out for the global node mainly and keep him to sp1 with 1 dex and block the rest.
He gains a 15% fury buff against mutants so it wouldn’t be insanely easy with kitty. HT could work but he would take a lot of block damage. High block proficiency champs are great and heal blockers are very important for shutting down his regen.

Good luck 🤞

It's been ages since I did that lane, but if I'm not mistaken, Ghulk is hands down the best option for it.

The degen from No Retreat triggers Face Me, so you get a great damage boost and a bunch of regen.

When I did it, I would intentionally do the double dash back to put the degen on myself, then go ham attacking.

Toughest fight will be agent venom
Use proxima, mags preflight, apoc, storm, storm x for the fight if you have them.
If you can clear that, rank up that 5* CORVUS to max!!! Apply 200% sp2 boost and just cheese the lane. (You dont have to if you practice a little)
For sabertooth I used nimrod
You also have crossbones which you can use, he can reduce ability accuracy

I'm not seeing good sabertooth counters; your tech class seems weak.

Nah I feel your pain man. I am trying the Red Mags path now because the Red Skull path is too difficult. He isn't getting stunned by my Doom 4* (Maxed at 9000 PI) although some YT runs show its possible. Any suggestions for masteries, etc.? Any ideas for the Red Mags fight on the left path? I use a maxed 5* Iron Man (post buff), maxed 5* Cap IW, maxed 5* Prof X, maxed 4* Doom, and for a fifth, at the moment I am just carrying a White Mags. Please help

Create a new thread, don't necro threads.

Also Ironman works fine against him with armor breaks.
