I was wondering if anyone has tried Anti-Venom against Dormammu. Should work well in theory, right?
Anyone works for dormmammu. I used omega red so I can say he's probably the easiest fight. It relly comes down to who you bring for blade, ikaris and crossbones because they require specific counters due to their kit or node combos.
As for my opinion on teams. I'm a TB pleb but a mono mutant team with prof x, colossus and omega red got a 4 fights down itemless and in about 12ish minutes (actually less). Mono team is the way to go as a TB unless you want to throw in a skill/science champ to which there is no penalty
6* rank 2 Dragon Man, 5* rank 5 Magik and 6* rank 2 Spider-Ham for me.
I used Magik for Ikaris, but I finished the fight with Dragon Man and I truly feel as if he could have been the better option against all of them or at least the first three (maybe Spider-Ham still better against Dormammu, though).
Against Blade he was particularly good because with his power gain he could reach even sp2 before his power was absorbed with no issues.
I used a few revives and potions, but no more than the ones I had in reserve and that were actually expiring and I still have a few left (not counting the hundreds free crystals I haven't opened yet), so that's ok for me xD
I am not and will never be Swedeah. I'm happy with grinding revives and pots for a week for each act 7 path, get between 10 and 30 revives a week depending on how many energy refills I have coming up to expire.
Comparatively, the EOP event is worth dumping 20% revives by the bucket load in!!
Agreed, Moose. Solos aren't for me, either. But I can manage resources, and work out strategies to grind my way through!
I'd been thinking of ignoring week 5; but once I saw how the objectives worked, decided it was do-able with a single run. Multiple runs didn't feel like an option I wanted to explore.
Since I needed 4 points, and no-one was immune to Power control, I decided on an all-Tech team:
Guillotine-2099 (Crossbones, 3 revives)
Punisher-2099 (Blade, 2 revives. Really turned that Surge Protector node against the vampiric ****)
Vision (Dormammu, 1 revive)
The only major obstacle was Ikaris, who was a complete misery of a fight (again). Burned about 14 revives or thereabouts. Punisher didn't work at all well, since his Heavy inflicted stun, and caused Ikaris to go Unstoppable. Guilly seemed the best option; but sometimes she'd inflict a degen on an intercept and (again) he'd go Unstoppable.
Still, I'm there. 16 points, and now within touching distance of my first r4. Happy days... 😉
I was thinking Shang Chi, Ronin, Miles. You reckon that would be good? On 12 and going for 16. Really struggling with Cross Bones though. The YouTubers make it look easy but not for me. What's a good rotation for him on Crossbones? So much to think about. Bane, poison, bleed, 3 Furies..... What I do?

I’m thronebreaker, I used kingpin, fixit and stealthy, soled the first 3 bosses with kingpin, used 3 revives in dorm with stealthy, u just gotta play slow in crossbones.
I used Nimrod for my first run through. Would he be OK for Dormammu? Was just thinking Shang Chi would be better there because of his Slow. (Also, meant Ronan not Ronin).
Shang Chi is super hard to get right against Crossbones. I must've tried hundreds of times. I am getting there but it isn't a walk in the park. I realise I can't bring Nimrod or Ultron if I want to use Ronan and Miles. I need to lay that cheese on thick for Ikaris and Blade. I would definitely not count Shang Chi as a cheese option on the other fights. Unless you're a YouTuber with lightening quick reactions then the stun rotation in the hands of mere mortals gets a fist in your face or a special 3 pretty quickly. I've tried on WS and you get Combo's into Oblivion more often than not. What's the trick?

Warlock, Sorc Sup, Gwen
(Mutant/Cosmic Objectives)
-Warlock for CB
-SS for Ikaris
-Gwen for Blade and Dorm
King Groot, Gwen, Prof X
(Mystic/Tech Objectives)
-KG for CB
-Prof for Ikaris
Gwen for Blade and Dorm again
Any tips?

Thinking herc, kg and not sure who for the third?
Odin prefight for dormammu?
Ultron-CB+Blade
Shang-Chi - Ikaris+Dorm (easy cheezy)
Stealthy-just for backup
Shang-Chi can cheeze all the fights except CB.(thanks to Swedeah for the great video how to cheeze with SC)
Good luck to everyone!
