Who Are the New Heroes?
The initial additions are Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman, offering unique gameplay experiences. Thing (tank) and Human Torch (duelist) will round out the Fantastic Four team-up later in the season. This team-up provides synergistic bonuses; Invisible Woman's healing is enhanced, while Mister Fantastic gains a rapid health regeneration ability.
Invisible Woman
Invisible Woman fills a much-needed support role in the game's roster.

Her attacks pierce multiple targets, damaging enemies and simultaneously healing allies – highly effective in crowded combat situations. While her range is limited, she's best utilized in close proximity to teammates.
Invisibility is a key mechanic. While achieving it passively (6 seconds without attacking or being attacked) is challenging, a double jump offers a more practical invisibility escape, crucial for evasive maneuvers. Invisibility also provides healing.

A deployable shield protects an allied teammate, offering temporary protection and healing to those nearby. Its fragility necessitates strategic repositioning to shield injured allies.

She can both attract and repel opponents. Repelling serves primarily as self-defense, often preceding a tactical retreat. Attraction aids allies in engaging enemies.

A projectile sphere pulls enemies into a damaging area of effect, ideal for controlling chokepoints and dealing area damage.
Three consecutive melee attacks result in a knockback, though this is often less practical in high-pressure situations compared to her other defensive options.

Her ultimate ability creates a healing and invisibility zone for the team. However, its stationary nature makes it vulnerable to area-of-effect attacks.
Invisible Woman offers a balanced support character, comparable in effectiveness to existing characters like Luna Snow and Mantis. While requiring skillful play, her abilities provide strong tactical advantages.
Mister Fantastic
Mister Fantastic offers a unique and entertaining playstyle.

His medium-range attacks can hit multiple targets, making him effective in clearing out groups of enemies.

A meter fills during attacks and ability use. Reaching maximum capacity triggers an inflated form, significantly increasing damage and durability.

A special ability allows him to absorb damage temporarily, then unleashing it in a powerful counterattack.

He can attract characters, granting himself a temporary shield (or dealing damage to opponents). This is useful for battlefield repositioning and survivability.

His right-click ability immobilizes enemies, allowing for follow-up attacks or combined throws.

His ultimate ability is an area-of-effect attack that slows enemies and repeats if at least one target is hit. Similar to Bucky's ultimate, but often less impactful.

Mister Fantastic blends duelist and tank elements, offering solid performance but not quite reaching the top tier of existing heroes.
Both new heroes are well-received, demonstrating the developers' commitment to unique character designs. We eagerly anticipate the arrival of Thing and Human Torch!
