Colliseum is ridiculously hard

I am using Future AntMan 6 star and it’s taking me around 250 energy to get one point, is this how it is meant to be

If your account isn't big enough and/or you aren't skilled enough, then yeah, it's supposed to be really hard. These aren't going to be free rewards.

I'd recommend watching some videos on strategies and counters. It's meant to be challenging, but not that bad. There's probably something that you're missing (e.g., don't dex).

Personally, I found Shocker a lot easier.

Dude… Use anyone you have ranked up parry to get armor and just roll with it.

g99 is better

maybe a picture of the roster could help

Yea it’s meant for skilled players

I suggest you read the nodes and the abilities of fant and havol thoroughly because it's difficult but not that bad and fant is the best option

mate you’ve got the perfect counter, I was doing 10 HB with 6* antman. Just parry his specials, bait and punish heavies to build armours (or intercept) and try and keep at least 5 on you. Then later in the fight when even parrying his sp2 hurts, you are free to dex it.

I go for sp1 to get disintegration up then sp2 and repeat. Get the protection off before dropping your sp2 while the power detonation thing is up. Sometimes the waiting around for things to line up is the tricky part. As long as you keep your armours up it’s a pretty straightforward ant man fight.

Maxed 6* is gonna clear about 2/3 HB per sp2.

Must be trolling

Sometimes I get 0 points with FAM, it does require some skill for that kind of reward

There is a certain rhythm with this fight using FAM, if AI is cooperative you can get multiple health bars

If you're not able to clear 1 bar with one of the best counters it's more of an issue with how u are playing than the fight itself. Read the nodes and havoks abilities to learn how best to fight against him

I tried various recommended champs, from 6* r4 Fant, 6* r5 ascended Bastion, to 7* r1 Guillotine and Guardian, to finally settling on 7* r2 awakened Warlock. By simply Parrying or Reparrying, Heavy attack and blocking specials, on average I could get 2 bars cleared per run.

Two days after Coliseum dropped and using multiple energy refills in overflow, the 80 points were done. Once your skill level isn’t great like me, you can’t really expect to clear multiple levels per run, but the rewards are worth the grind.

Are you playing him correctly?

If you decide that you don’t like using Fant, Infamous Iron Man worked absolute wonders for me. Number one thing to keep in mind is to never dex, if you have to dash backwards to dodge an attack try shallow dexing. If you can’t you’re just going to have to block a bunch of hits.

Yes, it is supposed to be difficult. Due to the big shift away from difficult story and events, new gen players feel that they now deserve all of the rewards without the equivalent effort.

I used this rotation for Infamous and although I only consistently get 2 bars with my r2 unawakened, I got there after a day of grind. Made it so much easier for a noob like me with a small roster. My highest is 4 and yes I'm not good.

Very similar to my rotation, I usually charge heavy right before my Special 3 to get Aura and place the passive stun, then after the Special 3 do a 5 hit combo, relic, then another 5 hit combo, and you have enough power for a Special 1. After that just spam Special 2’s until you lose Aura. Since you need the Green Goblin relic for the rotation in the video, you can use the rotation I mentioned if you don’t have it. I prefer the Hulkbuster relic on iDoom, anyways.

Spartakan

Use Shocker if you have him even with 6* you can take 6 bar in one run, Use SP 1 SP 1 SP 2 and heavy

Where were you in my life before? I use Hulkbuster relic for iDoom too but had to change it for the rotation in the video. Damn, would've made things much easier

I used omega sentinel and was removing 7-8 bars in one fight, max went to 12. You just need to play carefully. Dude is the new winter soldier.
