Should I rank up a five star Iron Man IW or Emma Frost? Both are unawakened. For reference, my main team includes one skill, one mutant, one mystic, and one science champion (Gwenpool, Archangel, Sorcerer Supreme, Human Torch).

Thank you!

    Yep, Emma. Archangel and Darkhawk are similar and AA is way better.

    Thanks! I also have Hulkbuster and Carnage; would either of those be viable options?

    But I’d go hulkbuster over both personally

    Interesting... I just have a hard time ranking up a champion who I've known has been so bad for so long. :)

    I vote Hulkbuster, he’s a beast now and we need more recon data on HB in the forums. I think he has good synergy w ur Sor Supreme too, rounds out your team best

    That said, I can also see an argument for Emma in wake of Magneto buff shifting the meta against metal champs a bit. But that’s thinking more about specific niche situations

    IMIW is a great counter to evade champs, korg, electro, buffet, coldsnap, bleed, has heal block, armourbreak, amazing block proficiency probably only second to capiw, very underrated power control. Access to both shock and incinerate. I’m probably forgetting some...

    I wouldn’t overlook all that utility.

    His evade counter is particularly nice as it doesn’t require any prior action to access like a special or whatever, just built into his basic hits.

    HB is good for AON and has decent damage but personally I used IMIW a lot more in v3 and he was MVP with voodoo in v1 too.

    Emma has a similar range of utility but I find her more awkward to use whereas Imiw is just really reliable.

    im voting imiw, hes really good, ignite plasma with heavy attack or start sp3 with heavy attack for double the plasma damage. also, he is good for pretty much every fight in the game

    Thank you for all the responses. I believe Iron Man Infinity War is the way to go.
