Character Wishlist Thread 3.0

New forums, new Character Wishlist thread

Just as a reminder, our rules:

Character requests are still a very frequent topic of conversation within our community, and with good reason - there are a ton of amazing Marvel characters in their universe.

The old Character wish list thread was ballooning a bit, and several characters requested in that thread have since been added to The Contest. We're starting up a new thread to house these discussions so that they can continue, but in a more up to date manner.

A few FAQ's:

1) Why haven't you added (X character) yet?!

A: there are so many characters we want to add, but simply haven't gotten to yet. A character's lack of presence in the Contest currently does not necessarily mean that we've overlooked them or that we don't already have them on our radar. Our teams have a finite amount of time in order to produce content, and we'd love to bang characters out quicker - but still need to maintain realistic developer cadences.

2) We need more female characters and more diversity.

A: Our own team is quite diverse itself, and we agree that representation is an important concern!

3) Why do you bother adding (X re-skinned character) when you've not even had a chance to add (x character not in The Contest)?

A: While some people are not a fan of character re-skins, MANY of our players are. The Marvel universe is one with a lengthy lore, and almost every beloved character has gone through some sort of costume change or shift at some point in their super-powered careers. These differences offer a good opportunity to re-introduce players to content they may not have managed to obtain the first time around, and allowing new players to pick up a certain champion while still keeping things a bit fresh. Our goal is to have a healthy balance between release types.

4) Can you confirm if a requested character is going to be released?

A: The short answer is no. We have specific timelines regarding when we can announce content, and that means that we can't pop in to say 'hey, that person is coming!'. For those wanting to keep on top of our latest announcements or teases, following our Twitter and Facebook accounts are your best shot. We also have an Instagram account that you should follow. Here are our social channels for easy access:

So go forth, and suggest! We're not going to individually reply to the comments and suggestions that we see, but we are reading everything.

This should go without saying, but please discuss the characters you'd like to see without insulting each other or trying to discredit someone's opinion. Friendly debate is welcome, but the emphasis here is 'friendly' ; )

Already had a thread on this, but here’s my idea...
Hear me out- if a new version of thanos comes out, here’s what his abilities could be. Has missions like Corvus but they are unique-
Time Stone- Defeat an Opponent in under a Minute.
Power Stone- Knock out an opponent with an sp3.
Soul Stone- Have a teammate knocked out on your team.
Reality- KO the opponent while a taunt is active.
Space Stone- Knock out an Inhuman, Cosmic, or Mystic Champ.
Mind Stone- Land over 75 hits in a fight.
Each stone gives a special ability for Thanos to work with. For instance, Power can give him an attack increase, Time can give him extended buff duration, Space can give him more buffs to work with, Soul can give him regen/health steal, Mind can give him Concussion, and Reality can change his special attacks to better fit the opponent’s weakness. Each charge visibly gives Thanos a stone on his Gauntlet hand. When he reaches all 6 stones, he awakens a snap ability- stealing 50% of the opponents power for his own, Life Stealing 20% of the damage done, Perma Heal Block on the opponent, an Aptitude buff, and a visual change to his armor he wears. Well, this all sounds great, but will it happen? Hmm.... Thanos comes out with IW Thor? How do y’all think about this idea? Any changes?
