So I'm new to the game and I'm getting decimated by Bullseye. I've realized that as you match purple gems you'll give him another defense gem, but how do you manage to get around it? Seems like once you start trying to destroy his purrple defense gems (obviously) another replaces it....
the way i deal with it is to focus on bullseye, while avoiding matching too many purples. there's also tile descruction, like from storm or magneto (2*). ms marvel has an ability that destorys defense tiles specificly, as well. there's also a couple of characters that can steal them, such as moonstone or she-hulk.
Right, but when he's got the defense tiles out there your attacks are doing like 1 and 2 damage. I guess I'll need to pay more attention to my character and their stronger attacks.
i like to use daredevil's purple attack which removes defensive and offensive tiles and damages the character in front. the down side is that you are creating defensive tiles for bullseye the up side he's gonna eat one mean fist from DD as the more defensive tile on the board the harder DD hits.Â
If you're new you don't have access to the characters that can destroy his tiles. There are several 2 and 3* characters that can either destroy or reverse them. Ms. Marvel's red blast is probably the first you'll encounter.
Until you find that, all you can do is avoid matching purple and try to survive until your heroes can use powers. His defense tiles are relatively weak at low levels, so Iron Man's Unibeam will cut right through it. Once you drop him you can clean up his tiles and regain normal damage.
You can also get rid of them with a 4-tile row sweep, when its available. New ones only appear if you match purple tiles, not if you destroy the old ones indirectly.
