So the new boss rush was released today, and i have to say that while it's not the most difficult piece of content ever, it definately can cause a lot of trouble to some people. I'll do my best to analyse what i did, and other strategies i thought of. This is just my opinion, if anyone has more strategies he is free to list them below.
KING GROOT:
Probably the easiest fight in there. Any champion can do it, as long as they can outdamage the regeneration. The mystic ward node might make it a bit more difficult if you are using a nullify champion like dr voodoo or scarlet witch, but the fight is still doable. The best options are probably loki or void, since loki can consistently steal all the furies and the regeneration, while void can reverse the healing.
FINAL SUGGESTIONS: Void or loki, if you can bring them both (void has potentially 3 other "uses" in the quest too)
DOMINO:
A definately rough fight. There is a way to take her down using champions like hyperion or captain america infinity war with maxed out despair mastery, but you probably wanna look for other ways. Void is a strong counter, but the combination of her unlucky debuff and the natural decrease to your ability accuracy while fighting her can cause problems, since your debuffs might not be applied or replaced by fear of the void. Archangel works better, since the reduce to ability accuracy does not make the fight as random as it is with void.
FINAL SUGGESTIONS: Archangel, void
QUAKE:
Spite actually helps you here, since you can't parry. You get your openings by evading special or heavy attacks. You can use MODOK, play really passively, let her build regeneration stacks and then hit her with a special 1, although i don't recommend it. You can probably taje her down with any champion, as long as you the regeneration does not get out of control.
FINAL SUGGESTIONS: Killmonger (class advantage, a way to get an opening with the counterpunch charges, 2 more potential uses in the quest)
INVISIBLE WOMAN:
The debuffs she applies to you will mess up the node that grants you a bar of power whenever she gets one, so be prepared to not launch many specials if you dont deal with them. Killmonger works great for the fight, any champion with bleed makes it easier.
FINAL SUGGESTIONS: Killmonger
SYMBIOTE SUPREME:
Power gain for days. Sometimes he will not even throw his specials, making you eat a sp 3 in the face and dying. His health pool is not that high, so you theoritically could just bring a heavy hitter and do as much damage as you can in one go, and then revive. Doctor octopus and stark spider man can be options, doc oc in order to power lock him and stark spider man in order to chain stuns with his special 1. Gambit should be able to stun lock him too. The best stun lock option is by far hulk though, especially if you have void in the team too. Get in, try to get to a special 1. If you don't make it, revive with a level 1 health potion and try again. The moment you parry, the void synergy is going to kick in and give you 1 bar of power to start the chain.
FINAL SUGGESTIONS: Hulk (easier with void synergy)
TASKMASTER:
You can try with any champion either playing around icarus or just going berserk and doing as much damage as you can with the enormous amounts of furies you are going to have. Killmonger with the void synergy works great here too, since he will often shrugg off the degen caused by icarus, allowing you to not care about the node, and to deal massive amounts of damage.
FINAL SUGGESTIONS: Killmonger (void synergy)
FINAL BEST TEAM:
1. Loki (king groot)
2. Void (synergies, potential help against domino)
3. Archangel (Domino, potential use against inv. Woman or taskmaster)
4. Killmonger (Inv. Woman, Taskmaster)
5. Hulk (Symbiote supreme)
