CotT: No Father's Day card for you!: Nebula vs. Thanos

PuceMoose · July 2020

This was a pretty close fight for my level 168 4/5/4 Nebula. I got her 13th cover not long ago, so I was interested in seeing how she plays. I had no luck keeping my blue repeater on the board, and was down to 1.8k health when I finally got enough red and green to do a double shot and take home the prize. I always grin at her attack animation, as it looks like she is an enraged squirrel leaping across the screen.

On another note, I realized that Nebula is one of the few fairly old 4* characters that I don't think I've ever seen anyone using in the seasonal Sim.

My Nebula was parked at 170 fully covered and basically Thanos match damage was enough to smash her first time out. So I levelled her to 190 and put a Korg Support on her to help deal with that. Second fight I managed to eke out the win, no small thanks to having her blue repeater out and getting her green and red powers a few times to wear Thanos down. Fortunately Thanos is pretty slow so you have time to nibble away at him but it was still a closely run battle! If I am honest though, this did little to convince me Nebula is worth any further attention.

I actually had things work out pretty much exactly like Nebula wants to. Got blue out early, down in a corner. Picked up a bunch of red and green and fired them back to back, and then a couple of turns of match damage plus attac tiles finished the job.

When everything lines up like that, Nebula is actually pretty great, but it's kind of a lot of specific AP that you need to pick up in sequence, and in practice, it's too many moving parts to be able to make it work even remotely reliably.
