Who Are the New Heroes?
Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman are the first of the Fantastic Four to join the fray. Thing (tank) and Human Torch (duelist) will follow, completing the team-up. This team-up provides a synergistic boost: Invisible Woman's healing is enhanced, and Mister Fantastic gains a rapid health regeneration ability.
Invisible Woman
Invisible Woman brings a much-needed support role to the game. Her attacks pierce multiple targets, damaging enemies and healing allies – perfect for crowd control. However, her range is limited, requiring close proximity to teammates.

She boasts an invisibility mechanic, achieved by abstaining from actions (abilities, attacks, being attacked) for six seconds. While effective for healing, the lengthy requirement limits its practical use. A more reliable invisibility trigger is her double jump, providing a crucial escape mechanism.

Her right-click deploys a fragile shield for an ally, best used defensively for duelists and strategically repositioned to protect injured teammates, providing healing to those nearby. She can also pull or push opponents, offering both offensive and defensive options.

A projectile sphere pulls enemies into a damaging area, excellent for chokepoints and crowd control. While a three-hit melee combo exists, it's generally less effective than her other abilities due to vulnerability during the animation.

Her ultimate creates a healing and invisibility zone, but its stationary nature makes it vulnerable to area-of-effect attacks. Despite this, 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 medium-range attacks can be angled to hit multiple targets. His abilities fill a meter, triggering a powerful inflated form with increased damage and durability.

His "Shift" ability absorbs damage for a short duration, then releases it as a powerful shot. He can also pull characters, gaining a temporary shield for himself, or dealing damage to opponents.

His right-click extends his arm to immobilize opponents, allowing him to either pull them in or grab another for a combined aerial throw.

His ultimate is an area-of-effect jump attack that slows opponents and repeats if successful, similar to Bucky's ultimate, though often less impactful.

He occupies a flexible role between duelist and tank, powerful but not quite reaching the top tier heroes. Both new characters demonstrate a commitment to unique and engaging gameplay. We eagerly await the arrival of Thing and Human Torch!
