Kitty Pryde

Kitty’s kit’s gameplay revolves around rushing back and forth to Phase through opposing assaults, preventing receiving damage, and inflicting massive bursts of damage to the opponent!

Nick fits seamlessly into numerous team combinations by offering outstanding utility. He is a formidable leader with a lot of team synergy. He is among the top-tier characters in the Marvel Contest Champions Tier list.

Omega Red

When playing as Omega Red, keeping a close eye on your surroundings is crucial; more Death Spores equals greater damage and a lower likelihood of those pesky Skill Champions Purifying your Stuns from a Parry.

Cull Obsidian

Emma Frost

Emma Frost’s Heavy attacks make it simpler to switch into and stay in Telepath Form. She will create more Power in Diamond Form than the opponent. Opponents are taunted into utilizing their Special Attacks when in Telepath Form.

She will almost certainly finish up with more Power than the opponent in both circumstances, prompting the transformation into Telepath Form.
