What happened to Wiccan's #Psychic Shielding tag?

Apologies if this has come up before (I hate this forum's cruddy search engine and I really wish Kabam would upgrade the software beyond the early aughts) but I feel like I've missed something here.

I could have sworn Wiccan had #Psychic Shielding (I brought him for Necropolis for that very reason) but now it's not there. That's a major issue now since I don't think any of the #Romance or #It's Complicated champs have #Psychic Shielding, which means the fight against Ultron in the Paragon Gauntlet is going to beyond horrible.

Am I missing something or is my game screwed up?

    Ah, that's the source of my confusion. I've been so busy the last few weeks, I didn't think to look at the main body of his kit and instead just looked at his tags. Thank you.

    Also Wiccan's an awful counter to Ultron because he does so much energy damage which Ultron just regenerates

    True, but I have no other choice. I think Emma is the only other one you could use against him for the Paragon Gauntlet and I don't have her ranked up at all since I never use her.

    It's weird Jessica Jones and Luke Cage don't have the tag #Romance and/or #It's Complicated tags but whatever. I did the Paragon Gauntlet with Wiccan but it still sucked (and not even because of the energy damage issue).

    if it was for the Ultron fight, any robot would work

    Nah man, wiccan is still immune to reverse controls, He can block ultron's delerium node.
    The fight will be awfully long tho

    It is possible to do the fight, but the Extinction Protocol node makes him get more and more power through the fight, so it will be impossible to solo him with Wiccan

    If you have Overseer and Hulk, IHulk and Fixit you can bypass the inverted controls. And it doesn't if your Emma isn't ranked, just bring Kitty and she'll be immune as well

    Medusa is great for the romance challenge if you have her! She’s not immune to the Delirium, but she’ll pretty much shut down everything else (sans evade) and you won’t need to worry about power gain and dexing specials.

    Medusa and Gamora are great for both Sandman and Ultron

    If you picked Vision OG from the selector, he was very helpful for Paragon Gauntlet. #Romance tagged and robot so no reverse controls

    Juggs does really well in against that Ultron.

    Yup, so you're right. Somehow I didn't notice her when I filtered. I guess I didn't scroll far enough down (pass top 5*s) since I have her as an R3 6*. Oh, well.

    I think some of the recommendations here are forgetting that OP is trying to complete the #Romance tag objective as well :smile:

    Jessica Jones is Romance and has psychic shielding.....
    IF you have her.

    He never had the psychic shielding tag but he's immune to all forms of reverse controls it's in his kit

    Wiccan is immune to reverse controls, but I don't remember him having psychoch shielding

    Just to add a bit to this, as many have said Wiccan is immune to reverse controls but does not have the psychic shielding tag, but also the psychic shielding tag doesn't mean you're automatically immune to reverse controls. Some reverse control effects, like the Delirium node on Ultron and the reverse controls that Emma inflicts are specifically stated to not affect champions with psychic shielding. But there are reverse control effects that completely ignore that tag. Knull's reverse controls due to corruption is unaffected by psychic shielding.

    So just because it is immune to reverse controls doesn't mean it has the tag, and just because it has the tag doesn't mean it is immune to all reverse controls.

    i used jessica to counter ultron for doing romance objective in paragon gauntlet, others that can counter reverse control with romance tagged are wiccan and vision og.
