** The game also does pretty well at averting GuysSmashGirlsShoot. Most of the women have at least one melee attack, those who are purely ranged have useful support moves, and impressive Bruiser powerhouses include She-Hulk, X-23, and Valkyrie and impressive Scrappers include Magik and Sif. On the other side, several men are entirely ranged, but that number includes dangerous powerhouses like Hawkeye, Magneto, and Doctor Strange.
** [=SpecOps=] 9 features Rescue, the second recruitable female Tactician, also time-limited, like Emma. Basically, she's a CombatMedic, playing a supportive role while the other members of her team do most of the dirty work. Most of her abilities are healing and shielding maneuvers. Her only attack can remove nasty counterattack abilities in the enemy, but aside from this, it does minimal damage. Rest assured, [[BadassDamsel she's pretty damn badass despite all of that]], but the only thing holding back the niggling StayInTheKitchen vibe is that she makes it clear that this particular moveset is Pepper Potts' own preference.

** The Agent will almost always have four of these weapons: the Quantum Jumper, the [=SpecOps=] weapons, and the PVP weapons. To wit:\\
\\
The Quantum Jumper, the most accessible weapon, gives extra turns for everybody.\\
\\
Coulson's Revenge, a Limited Edition weapon based on Film/TheAvengers, deals humongous damage and grants the Avengers Assemble bonuses.\\
\\
The Phoenix weapons from [=SpecOps 3=] (Phoenix Flare, Cosmic Flame, Faulteater...) deal psychic damage and are stealthy, while also regenerate health on the agent.\\
\\
Signpost, from [=SpecOps 4=], deals damage to the Agent in exchange for a ''subtle'' way to leech up health and stamina from every other enemy team member.\\
\\
Hoarfrost Mace, from [=SpecOps 5=], protects allies from single-target attacks, and if the Agent dies, it grants a huge boost in attack to the living team members.\\
\\
Warbringer Axe, another Limited Edition weapon from the PVP Season 6's roulette, grants the "Warbound" passives, which adds stacks of "War Frenzy" each time the Agent and allies are attacked. Each stack of War Frenzy increases the damage of attacks.\\
\\
Scroll of Angolob, from PVP Season 3, removes all negative status effects from the user's team and all positive status effects from the enemy's team, and grants the user an extra turn.\\
\\
Dark Sigil, the prize weapon of Chapter 9.6's Premium Mission, inflicts Burning, Dark Void and Weak Point.\\
\\
Nanite Inductive Nailgun, from PVP Season 1, counter-attacks and creates a shield around the Agent after each attack/counter.

*** Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver, because they have the biggest bonus at the end of each battle, with 250 for the 5 50-point bonuses they share. Couple that with their abilities and a good gear-set for the Agent, and you'll be using them in each battle where you need to collect points.
*** With the advent of the "Mindbenders" bonus, Emma Frost and Phoenix, although the most expensive/difficult pairing to get, not only has a 250 bonus points, but it's way more powerful than the SW-Quicksilver pairing.
** For Command Point grinding, mission 12.2 features eight minibosses and a single boss that can be fought all at once, plus an Epic Boss after that. All it costs is 20 energy points altogether, plus having Kitty Pryde on your team. She's the only required deploy to unlock 12.2's Epic Boss.
*** If the player hasn't reached Chapter 12, there's also Mission 4.4. Outside 12.2, it's the most cost-efficient mission, regarding energy. A full playthrough of the mission including the Epic Boss requires Storm, a Scrapper character...and only 70 energy points.
** For players wanting to fill their PVP Armory, there's mission 7.3, which only requires 30 points of energy. The trick is to just do those missions and every deploy as possible.

** The tandem Vapor-Fixer in 4.4 is a pain, especially for players who are running the mission repeatedly for Command Points.\\
\\
All of Vapor's attacks are Stealthy, making them unprotectable and uncounterable. Her Poison Gas mode gives the annoying Poisoned debuff, and is even worse if upgraded by Fixer since it inflicts Nanoplague instead, which removes and blocks buffs. Her Explosive Gas mode is just hugely damaging, and worse still there is a forced team-up with Invisible Woman, who has relatively frail defenses. And when her health drops below half, she just goes ''crazy'' and blows up everyone with her attacks (which are Subtle at this point, and don't trigger any bleed effects on her), while she is completely immune to her own damage. She's still somewhat manageable in 4.4 since she is teamed up with the useless Fixer, but put her with other annoying or tough bosses like Doctor Doom or X-Ray, and it gets tiring very quickly.\\
\\
Fixer might not attack the team repeatedly, but aside of his Upgrades, his Timed Grenades are guaranteed to blow, and his Blast Shield allows him to avoid being [[HoistByHisOwnPetard hurt by his own grenades]].
** The 12.6 miniboss and boss fights feature Dr. Doom and five Doombots that you have to fight. Going after all six in one fight is a hefty task, made all the worse with the debuffs his attacks can inflict upon you like "Ring Imperial", which damages you and your allies over time, and can even make you lose turns. Though Black Knight's immunity to magic helps. A little.
