The Fantastic Four's debut begins with Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman. The upcoming additions, Thing and Human Torch, will enhance the team dynamic, with Thing acting as a sturdy tank and Human Torch bringing agility and dueling prowess. These characters will also contribute to the Team-Up Fantastic Four, which boosts Invisible Woman's healing capabilities and grants Mister Fantastic a rapid health restoration ability.

Invisible Woman

In a game where support characters are relatively scarce, Invisible Woman's arrival is a welcome boost for players who enjoy this role. Her unique abilities add strategic depth to the gameplay.

Invisible Woman's attacks can pierce through crowds, damaging foes while healing allies. This makes her particularly effective in crowded scenarios, though her limited range means she needs to stay close to her team.

Her ability to turn invisible, requiring six seconds of inactivity, is less practical in combat but does offer healing benefits during the effect. A more tactical approach to invisibility is her double jump, which serves as an excellent escape mechanism.

Using the right mouse button, Invisible Woman can deploy a shield for an ally, which, despite its fragility, can be moved to support injured teammates and provides healing to those nearby.

She also possesses the power to attract and repel enemies. Repelling is useful for self-defense, particularly before evasive maneuvers, while attracting can help allies close in on opponents.

Invisible Woman can launch a sphere that pulls enemies into a damaging area, ideal for controlling narrow passages and dealing with groups of enemies.

A series of three melee attacks will push enemies away, though this is generally less useful in combat due to the time it takes to execute. It's wiser to use her repelling ability or escape with a double jump.

Her ultimate ability creates a healing and invisibility zone for the team, although its stationary nature makes it vulnerable to area attacks from opponents.

Overall, Invisible Woman offers a balanced mix of support and tactical play, though she doesn't outshine top-tier supports like Luna Snow and Mantis, her abilities are a valuable asset to any team.

Mister Fantastic

Mister Fantastic brings a unique and entertaining twist to the game, leveraging his stretching powers in innovative ways.

His attacks can reach enemies at a medium range, and by adjusting his aim, he can strike multiple foes in a single move.

As he uses his abilities and attacks, a meter fills up. Once full, Mister Fantastic transforms into an inflated form, increasing his damage output and durability.

His "Shift" ability allows him to absorb incoming damage temporarily before releasing it in a powerful blast.

Mister Fantastic can also attract characters to him, gaining a shield in the process. Attracting an ally provides them with a shield, while pulling an enemy deals damage, making it a versatile tool for battlefield control and survivability.

With the right mouse button, he can extend his arm to immobilize an opponent, offering the choice to either pull them closer or grab another enemy to throw them into the air.

His ultimate ability involves a leap followed by a damaging area strike that slows enemies. If he hits at least one target, he can repeat the attack, though it's often less impactful than similar abilities from other heroes.

Mister Fantastic straddles the line between a duelist and a tank, offering strong but not overwhelming capabilities compared to the current top heroes.

The reception to both Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman has been overwhelmingly positive. The developers continue to innovate with unique character designs, and the gaming community eagerly anticipates the arrival of Thing and Human Torch later in the season.
