    Very good breakdown. Any ideas for replacing AA? If he was used for MODOK, BPCW and KM would Kitty be a option?

    Else I got R4 Herc, Nimrod, and Wags. May need to rank up my 6* Hulk and give this a go if AA is easy to replace which it is looking like it will be.

    Thanks for your positive feedback, I'm glad you found my guide useful. Herc can do killmonger and modok, so the main reason to have aa is that bpcw who has evade and unstoppable after special attacks and gains armour which makes him unblockable so the best option for him is someone who will consistently prevent all these buffs from triggering. I think KT1 said doom and tigra were good mystics for this fight, also they can do dragonman. Shang chi and valkyrie also come to mind.
    I ended up taking Herc, Ibom, Tigra, Kitty, and Nimrod. 14 Revives to clear the paths- haven't done Thanos yet. Tigra was a good suggestion and took DM and BPCW very well. Korg fight was a little rough. Really wish I would have played better there.

    I don't have hulk or nimrod, so should I take silk or s99? And who can I fill my nimrod slot with

    Most people have reported success with spidey2099 so I would use him instead of silk. He's one of the best dragonman counters too. Between herc and aa and s99 they can cover all the hulk fights. Nimgod is used for apoc, weapon x, domino and nightcrawler. AA can easily solo weapon x and herc does apoc fine. Nightcrawler and domino are also doable with herc so maybe your best bet is to just bring in heimdall synergy to give herc another failsafe.

    This is interesting since I don't have nimrod too. My last gauntlet team was with a fairly alternative team (herc, ghost, tigra, AA and valk) and that cost me 15-20 revives. I want to bring that revive count down now with herc AA heimdall wags and another spot (following BeroMan's run on youtube).

    So I'm looking to fill my last spot and don't know who would be best. Maybe valk again for spider gwen/thing/etc? Or another tech (future ant man/ultron/ghost) for domino&nightcrawler? Or quicksilver/scorp for that annoying dragon man? All input welcome.

    Good to hear tigra did well for you. yeah korg can be a menace with all his block penetration, that's the main reason I put wags on the team. 14 revives is not bad at all, especially as Kabam rarely release content we actually need them these days, so they just expire anyways for a lot of people.

    Well, obviously it depends on your roster and who you are comfortable playing, but I reckon a team like this should work well enough for you:



    Herc and AA can handle the bulk of the fights, then you have valk for the annoying spider ham and gwen, then scorp deals with dragonman and a couple of other mystics. I imagine you could substitute him with other science champs as well like spidey 2099 or qs as you mentioned.

    Dude I was able to complete the gaunltet for the first time with the help of your tips and teams. I have a short tip too.
    Note: this simple trick may save you a lot of heath pots and revives and the requirement is duped Hercules. Use the sp3 right before the opponent is slightly under 3 bars of power. This gives u an indestructible and a power gain buff. Ignore damage and land a few more hits until the opponent reaches 3 bars of power again. Rinse and repeat this process. Fights where this is viable are terrax, spiderham (with wags pre fight), vision, korg( easily shuts down the rock shield) and more. With willpower u can easily heal back upto full health during the spiderham fight because of taunts and poppers while taking no damage from the debuffs on using the sp3. Hope this helps

    Thanks man! I think I will choose for heimdall and scorp because I find the mystics more annoying than spider gwen (as madrid said above, spider ham is an easy solo with herc by going sp3). Thanks again for all the input

    Yeah but remember, sometimes the ai may be defensive. Don't parry spiderham after sp3 until u have indestructible active. If you do, the indestructible will expire while spiderham won't do anything during stun, but sp3 when the buff expires. The power gain and energize helps a lot in this fight
