Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman are now playable, bringing their distinct powers to the battlefield. Thing (tank) and Human Torch (duelist) will round out the Fantastic Four team-up later in the season. This team-up synergizes well, enhancing Invisible Woman's healing and providing Mister Fantastic with a rapid health regeneration ability.

Invisible Woman

With a relative scarcity of support characters, Invisible Woman offers a refreshing addition to the game's support roles.

Her attacks pierce through multiple targets, damaging enemies while simultaneously healing allies – ideal for crowd control. However, her limited range necessitates close proximity to teammates.

Invisible Woman's invisibility, achieved by abstaining from actions for six seconds, provides a defensive option, albeit a situational one due to the lengthy activation time. A more practical approach is utilizing her double jump for quick escapes.

She can deploy a temporary shield in front of an ally (right-click), offering protection, especially for duelists. Remember to reposition the shield to injured allies for optimal healing.

Her abilities also include attracting and repelling opponents. Repelling serves as a defensive maneuver, while attracting assists allies in engaging enemies. She can also launch a damaging sphere, pulling enemies into a concentrated area – perfect for chokepoints and crowd control.

While a three-hit melee combo pushes enemies back, this is generally less effective than her other abilities.

Her ultimate ability creates a healing and invisibility zone for her team. However, its stationary nature makes it vulnerable to area-of-effect attacks.

Invisible Woman offers a balanced and tactically interesting support character, comparable in effectiveness to Luna Snow and Mantis.

Mister Fantastic

Mister Fantastic is a unique and entertaining character, his abilities reflecting his elastic powers.

His attacks have a medium range, with the ability to hit multiple targets by aiming to the side.

His abilities fill a meter; once full, he transforms into an inflated form, significantly boosting his damage and durability.

Using "Shift" activates a damage absorption phase, followed by a retaliatory burst.

He can attract characters, gaining a temporary shield (ally gains shield, enemy takes damage). This is useful for battlefield repositioning and survivability.

Right-clicking extends his arm to immobilize enemies, allowing for follow-up attacks or throwing multiple enemies into the air.

His ultimate ability involves an area-of-effect attack that slows opponents and, if successful, repeats the attack. While similar to Bucky's ultimate, it's often less effective.

Mister Fantastic blends duelist and tank elements, offering strong capabilities but not quite reaching the top tier heroes.

Both new heroes offer a positive and unique addition to the game, demonstrating the developers' commitment to diverse and engaging character design. We eagerly anticipate the arrival of Thing and Human Torch!
