Need some help with new TBE

Alright, for months I had been running TBE flawlessly with OBW, 3* Cyclops, and 2* Thor. Past month I had been lax with the game because developing my 3* roster has had some setbacks, one being I legitimately have yet to pull a single KK after hundreds of pulls, so I took a break from the game and just got on for the supply drop. Come back earlier this week and they've changed TBE, and my team which worked flawlessly definitely does not work with these new changes.

Frankly I suck at team building, and looking at the new team recommendations, I'm not sure where my roster works exactly. If anyone could give me a decent team build with my current roster, or leveling recommendations to get a solid TBE team would be great. I frankly don't get the TBE changes, it seems to only make it interesting for people who have a decent 3* cover line-up already, but the whole point of it is to help you cover your 3* line-up essentially, but whatever that's beside the point. Roster is here: http://mpq.gamependium.com/rosters/thyarmageddon/

I've been running a full 2* team. Thormneto can win every time for you by building up a perpetual turn with thor Y, Storm G (go 5/5/3 on her), and Mags P/R.

After round two I believe I made 3 matches manually.

Agreed, my roster is pathetic compared to most people I see having trouble with the enchilada. Thormneto has not failed me. Sometimes takes an extra try but I have been very happy with it. 1st round is the worst and after that, just ration your powers and play them strategically and its cake.

Man I hardly ration anything. Storms Green giving you 30 AP completely trivializes the experience haha.

I just tried with your combo (I refrained from using 3* Cyclops abilities since mine is championed), and it seems to still work fine. TBE is definitely harder than before, but I don't think it's impossible.

Strategy is just to kill the non-goon ASAP and take your time on the remaining two and build up AP. I think I had max of every colour going into the 4th round, so just spamming all of Thor's abilities finished the job. Taking some damage is not a big deal as OBW will heal you back up to full.

That may work, I may have just tested it on a bad day, as apparently they're still trying to balance this new TBE change.

Edit: Oh yeah that worked like a charm, I'll have to just track it and see what goons it starts faltering on.

Out of curiosity, when did you have problems? Because they just nerfed it a bit day before yesterday (to have fewer ultrons and symbiotes and to never have them in the first round).

It was around Saturday I believe, and then I had heard they were making some changes again so I hadn't touched DDQ until today because they seem update crazy at the moment.

  1. level up cyc as much as you can
  2. level up 2* mags to 94 when possible
  3. where is your 2* storm? she is a total glass cannon but pairs amazingly with 2* mags

You should stop putting ISO-8 into your 4* heroes until you've got a good roster of maxed 3* heroes. Even if all the 3* you currently have can't be leveled, save that ISO-8. Levels 120 to 166 cost a little over 100k ISO-8, so you're going to need it.

My IF (140) / 3*Mags (167) / Cage (140) has worked for me since the update ... even today when I sat there for two dozen turns with Invisible Woman being invisible and nary a match in sight.

Never has using IF's purple punch been so satisfying to me than after that nonsense.

No, do NOT level up Cyc as much as you can like the guy earlier said. You're doing the right thing keeping him at 120 don't want him to completely overshadow everyone else, that will mess up leveling for you.

You should definitely level up 2 star Magneto and champion him. He will make things much easier for you, not just to pair with Storm, but I also use him on goon nodes with OBW in order to ensure that no CD tiles go off ever.
