Winter of Woe: Nebula Strategy Thread [merged]

New boss just dropped, and at least on first glance she looks to be substantially easier to deal with than Abs Man. So I wanted to get the ball rolling on some suggested options based on the challenges we have:

Metal and God: my first thought is Angela. She counters the debuffs and the autoblock extremely well. She was made for this.

Size M and Burst: Silver Surfer. Plenty of buffs with indefinite uptime if you’re keeping his rotation up, and he actually benefits from having shocks placed on him.

Carina’s Challengers: this is the tough one. Mole Man is shock immune, so he’s a strong contender for it. Howard the Duck will have tons of buffs on him to counter the autoblock node. Falcon could theoretically work, as could Shang Chi. I’ll definitely want to talk through this one a bit.

How’re y’all feeling about this one?

    The challenges are:
    1. Offensive burst and medium
    2. God and metal
    3. Carina's challengers

    Suggestions so far?
    Scorpion
    Sig 200 Angela or Odin
    Sig 200 Ultron

    Any others?

    This one seems more forgiving. Who do you think will work against this Nebula (and also for objectives).

    Also, I have a doubt, "Defeat Nebula with a god AND metal champ" Means we have to defeat her with a champ with both tags or does one of the tags will work?

    God and metal = Odin. Saw KM get a solo with him

    Carina Challengers (speculation): Howard has heal block + enough buffs so he actually seems amazing for it

    Both tags required, Angela seems to be a good option for the god and metal objective

    I think Thor Rags could be decent for the God and Metal with the severe shock reduction. The node that strikes me as the pain point is that you cannot parry with buffs because that will nullify a buff on you and instantly take off 40% of your health.

    For some reason, my odin started the fight with only 1 buff activated instead of all three

    Scorpion does M and offensive burst but not well. CGR too but you have to have buffs or it is a slog.

    He only meets the Carina challengers objective. He is size M but not burst damage.

    Ant-Man works for God and Metal. Shocker for Offensive Burst.

    Sig 180 Angela is practically the same as sig 200 so save the sigs if she's already sig 180

    Proxima for Offensive: Burst and Medium

    Angela for Metal and God

    Carina’s challengers: Mole man possibly? Anyone who’s shock immune

    I doubt it with the insane number of shocks you will stack from the autoblock might just chip you down to a one hit KO

    Not well? He's probably the best option there,(maybe not the best cause surfer) you just need the right strategy with scorp

    For #Size:M and #Offensive:Burst, Silver Surfer works wonders if you have the 7*:

    Again it's a slog with her autoblock, but I listed him for a reason.

    I don’t think ant man is a god
    Okay, maybe I'm mistaken. I was looking at options that came up filtered. Maybe I hit the wrong filter or something.
