Advice for Nightcrawler and Longshot in Legendary Arcade

I cleared the first set (5 runs) of rewards for the Legenday Prize Card to get the 10K 5* shards (I'm UC not Cav).
I have not had too much trouble, but struggled a bit in a couple of fights. All in all it cost me about 150 units and a fair number of individual revives & boosts, which I don't think is too bad, but I am hoping to try to get through my remaining runs using fewer resources.
My team has been Corvus 5*R4, Warlock 5* R5, Void 5* R4, Hulkbuster 6* R1, and G2099 5* R4. I will mostly likely be replacing HB for future runs pending any advice I get here.
Options to replace anyone on the team are 5* R4 CAPIW (duped but low sig), 5* R4 Sym Supreme, 5* R4 CV, 5* R4 Fury, 5* R4 Cull, 6*R1 MagHoX, 5* R4 Havok.
The toughest fights for me have been Nightcrawler and Longshot.
For Nightcrawler I've been using Corvus and just using the recharge effect to get to SP2 asap. It's worked for the most part, but I typically have to use a revive or two. I also like Corvus here because it gets me 2 charges for him in remaining fights. What have you all been doing for this fight?
The other trouble fight has been Longshot. I've been starting off with Void, who is usually around 50-70% health after the Rogue fight. I usually get Longshot down to around 50-60% before Void drops and I mop up with 1 or 2 other characters. The problem has been, when I'm avoiding him during the Unstoppable phase I end up getting pinned in the corner. Any advice?
The others have not generally been tough. Void is awesome on the Rogue fight. I make stupid mistakes and get clipped in the other fights but that's an issue with the quality of my play, not a problem with the fights themselves.

For LS, use CAIW and just parry+ML during unstoppable, bait the L1s, go ham a bit when Unstoppable is on cool down. Time parry+Heavy first hit+L2 for the cool down and when he is below a bar of power.
Longshot. You can parry while he’s unstoppable. Also, parry heavy, you’ll have plenty of room.
For longshot take cap and do parry heavy when he is not unstoppable. I would say take out guillotine 2099 instead of hb as the global doesn't help her much.
Longshot use Human Torch if you have him
Longshot - anyone with a DoT effect ideally. I use Domino because she has great basic attack damage and can make SP bleeds. Also try to parry when he is unstop and avoid attacking him of course.
I used Torch prefight for Longshot.
(Void could be very good for NC.)
Also, max out Stupefy. If you parry, you can always get one hit in without problems, even when both of you are unstoppable.
(side note: u should be able to get to cavalier with your current roster so I'd definitely give it a shot)
Longshot I use she hulk to slow him but you could use capiw as he can hit into him and nullify the unstoppable. Parry heavy for safety as you know you will have a kinetic charge.
Nightcrawler : Ghost or NightTrasher or Iceman or Corvus/Proxima...
Longshot : nearly any champion as long as you pay attention at the irresistible every 5 seconds. AA and Doom was the two i used the most for the amount of damage they do
Rogue : Best counter is Doom as you can slap her easily to get rid of the aegis node, but any champion work if you use heavy attack at the end of her SP1
Iceman : Ghost or Warlock or Corvus are the best counter but i suppose Mephisto should work too
Wolverine, Wolverine X23, Deadpool : nearly any champion work against them. AA was my favourite
Irresistible Colossus : Magneto make the fight really easy
Longshot is only scary if you let him get to sp2 and don't have incinerate immunity. Torch, void, colossus work great on him, especially torch. Parry while he's unlockable and get a quick M in and be ready to parry or dex his next move when the stun wears off. Otherwise anyone with slow will help and just don't let him get to sp2 to be on the safe side.
