Yes.
I've been playing summoners since I came back and fancy hitting up some melee
Here's what I have waiting
Black Widow
Cap
Daredevil
Gambit
Juggs
Loki (He's a melee summoner isn't he?)
Luke Cage
She-Hulk
Thor
Thing
Venom
Wolverine
X-23
I did Hulk months ago and loved him. Which out of the above do you think is the most fun to level?
And where the hell did I get all these characters from? That's just the melee ones

Been prestiging Deadpool, he is no where near as bad as I thought he as was going to be. I'm actually having fun leveling him. I kind of hope they don't change him up too much when the review hits.
If you can deal with combo points (a lot of people can't) Daredevil is quite good, also I have a lot of fun with gambit.
X-23 is another good choice, constantly jumping around the screen.

But, but, all that immersion breaking when you save civilians as Thanos!
Thanos has had his share of hero teams/team ups.
The only immersion breaking comes from them giving you shitty default costumes instead of good ones under the guise of "this is what they used when they were good" tho.
Accidentally too, I'm sure. ;P
Spider-Gwen is great.
I love the melee build for Spidey, so great choice.
Hear, hear!
my friend's uncle's wife's brother-in-law's neighbor confirmed Kaine for 2016. Good news for Drayco I guess

can you confirm any of the 2016 heroes besides Angela Frost?
go with a super safe one so in case it happens, that little 1% doubt if you actually work there remains

Ok, Ms. Marvel.
The spec at level 42.
I've played my fair share of Spidey (cosmic 60) for melee the build I suggest:
Max:
Spider-Brawl
Spidey-Pummel
Arachnid Assault (this is one of the best powers in the game)
Leaping Assault
Web Spray
Spider-Sense
Spider-DNA-->This is why it's rough, you need this.
Amazing Smash
One point:
Amazing Acrobatics
Stick Around (the passive should work on Web Spray)
Web Swinging (it looks cool)
My rotation is Web Spray-->Leaping Assault-->Amazing Smash-->Arachnid Assault--> Spidey Pummel fill with Spider Brawl then use skills as they come off cooldown. Use Acrobatics to dodge, keep enemies web sprayed. Spider-Man is spirit hungry but it can be managed once you get Amazing Smash.
With that build I wreck everything I run into.
That said if you're having fun ranged then stick with ranged.

You use both.
Brawl is your spender. Pummel is just another cooldown power in the rotation.

Tidbit of info on Black Cat. Not coming in January it seems.
I shall continue
I was just levelling her as well and I had the same problems. She felt squishy and I wasn't doing enough damage. Then I hit the power spike and suddenly was just wrecking everything. It makes a huge difference. I might even gear her next.
I'll just level as ranged until I hit level 42 and then see how melee feels. It doesn't feel right having SpiderGwen as a ranged build
I had a ton of fun with Captain America as far as melee goes. He can take a serious beating, and he hits pretty hard, especially at later levels.
I'm on to Silver Surfer now. I was having so much fun power leveling that I dropped some money on a five pack of winter wonder boosts. I never buy that kind of thing in games, but combining the boost with some of the others I still have from the fortune cards that came with the first Advance Pack I am getting a character to 60 in less than an hour of play time. Over the holiday weekend I went from one level 60 to now having 12 level 60s. So far my top three contenders for a main are Captain Marvel, Captain America, and Invisible Woman. Sue is an untouchable beast with the right spec.

Black Cat is the last of AP2. Kinda sad that this whole pack is coming to an end for me, but my God it was worth it.
So realistically how long does it take to unlock 400 fragments to buy a character by playing the game? I get maybe one an hour....so if that keeps at its current pace it would take me 400 hours for ONE character. That doesn't seem fair or good to me. Am I understanding how the game works incorrectly?
You shouldn't be getting one an hour. The current rate is one every ~8 minutes of game time and it is pretty consistent. You should be getting them more often considering the winter boost is still running.
If you are getting one an hour it means you are either killing monsters too ahead or beneath your level (red/grey monsters respectively) which you shouldn't be doing, considering there is also an XP penalty for doing that.

You're supposed to get one every 6-8 mins.
Make sure you're fighting enemies at your level. If you're too high leveled then enemies won't drop splinters.
By the health bar of the enemy will be a small coloured strip, if the strip s grey you won't get any drops.
Prepare for a change in fun.

Was a sliver a health away from finishing the cosmic trial and I get one shot by something.

Is it still a one shot if you only had a sliver of health left?
It's much more indepth on the RPG side of things, and heavy on loot. At this point I'd say MH is far superior to the UA/Legends games (and it'll only get better with time). Worth playing.
Lashley
Why does he wear the mask!?
I really enjoy Piotr, tbf.
I am excited to play Spidey, think I'll prestige him to red. Dunno if I can be arsed with cosmic.

Yeah the thing about this ultimate alliance games is that they haven't aged particularly well, had kind of spammy gameplay, and also 2 was shit.Is it still a one shot if you only had a sliver of health left?
