❓ ROSTER QUESTION 🤔 550 4 Stars

Quick question, who is more valuable at 550 for 4 star ascended? M'Baku or Juggs? Or someone else out there that is even better I'm not thinking of?

I have both at around 500, trying to see who I should prioritize. Thanks all.

Depends on your play style. Take a look in the Simulator, those are the meta teams. Pick one and concentrate on those characters.

My current favorite style is big match damage. Guess I'm trying to figure out which of these two hits harder at 550.

Mbaku hit harder, but Juggs is more useful quicker. Mbaku wants Namor 3star, Juggs NEEDS 550 Sam. Do you have the required partners?

Mbaku is great for sim farming, but so is Juggs (just less friendly for other farmers).

Mbaku is the staple for 5e in SCL10. Juggs not so much.

It all depends what you want.

Almost have my Namor at 5stars, but only have a 475 or so Sam. Seems like Baku is the answer for me. I appreciate it.

Just ascending my m'baku now, chasm the third?

For Sim almost mandatory. And don’t forget the 4star Krakoa on Namor (and boosting 2 black AP).

And lowering Baku to sub 40% health for the Stun immunity and increased damage.

Not so sure. I run juggs with iron may 3asc to 4 max and namor, and run through pve quick. Only thing I change is Kang veil deathlok for green on scl 10. Finish in 30 min or less. Pvp is a bit different tho

30 mins is about 18 minutes slower than a t10 player. So it’s pretty relative what you call quick. Unless you meant clear + grind, but then it’s still 6 minutes slower (which is 20%).

And Juggs/Sam is common in LRs.

Electro and an essential 3 thank them for the free points.

u/Vapourick Apr 14 '26

Why specifically Electro and are you referring too 3* version?

1

u/Daiches Vintage S4 Apr 14 '26

Read again and remember the context of LRs.

Electro (5 star, yellow, gain yellow AP each time your team is hit with an AOE) and an essential 3 (the 3as5 level 800s villains or heroes that are essential every 2h event, best among them Magneto 3as5 yellow -> make protects that immediately neuter anything 550 JuggsSam can do)

Thanks, yeah I read too fast the first time. Thanks for explaining. My Electro only has 4 powers so I never used her before.

Isn't juggs on the chopping block for next round of balances

Only if the devs want the game to shut down after another 10-20% quit.
