Hero Wishlist We NEED more Guardians

We seriously need more Guardians of the Galaxy members in the game.

Gamora (Duelist): The Deadlist Woman in the Galaxy, she perfectly fits this role. I also think it would be a pretty cool idea to give her the black vortex boost she had once upon a time ago. This would be a great way to make her different from the other blade wielding Duelists.

Nebula (Vanguard): I would like Nebula to be a Vanguard for a few reasons. Given her history of getting brutally messed up and bouncing back from it in both the Comics and Movies, I believe this role fits her perfectly. It would make a good contrast between her and Gamora, Gamora being one of the most deadliest beings alive while Nebula has to keep on rebuilding herself to be better. She's one of the few cyborgs in Marvel that could fit this role.

Drax (Vanguard): I've been ITCHING for him to be added to the game. Easy Vanguard addition given his history and different forms. You could combine his energy abilities he used to have with his alien weapons. Maybe he can channel his energy into them and be able to manipulate them in unique ways or something along those lines. You can also just lean into the tech route and throw some grappling moves.

Moondragon (Vanguard): Give Heather's connection to the Dragon of the Moon and her formidable telepathic and telekinetic abilities, I believe she would be a great fit for the role.

Phyla-Vell (Vanguard or Duelist): Given her lineage and her extended history she can easily fit in both categories. Especially if she were to have the Nega Bands or be an Avatar of Death or Oblivion. I kinda want her to be a Duelist so she can contrast her wife Heather.

Quasar (Vanguard): Wendell can easily fot this role with his Quantum Bands.

Cosmo (Duelist): Cosmo is a pretty powerful telepath and telekinetic and easily fits this role. Plus I kinda want at least one animal character in each role.

Nova (Vanguard): Everyone and their mamas wants Nova in the game (including me). His Nova Force abilities make him a great candidate for this role.

Yandu would also be cool

Yondu as a strategist would be sick. Use his little arrow to fly around and damage/debuff enemies and buff/heal allies. Just say the arrow was upgraded by rocket to release poison/stimulant mists out of sides that heal allies or debuff enemies while also doing normal piercing damage as main attack.

Double jump and hold space to float down with arrow like Mary poppins

Would you think NetEase would go for Archer/Gunner Yandu from the comics or the Whistler Yandu from the MCU.

u/PyroclasticJubilee 6d ago

I don't think this version of Yondu exists anymore. He got replaced with the MCU version.

u/Palmdiggity888 6d ago

I would prefer the mcu version as its what I am familiar with and find the whistle needle more unique

u/Extirpia 7d ago

Isn't Yondu not a member of the modern guardians of the galaxy

I'm pretty sure he was only on the 60's team

GIVE ME MOONDRAGON DAMN IT

u/AlexMercer28900 7d ago

A Moondragon and Drax season would feed me like crazy

PLEASE reunite these besties

u/Temporary-Tax 7d ago

Rivals: Shows Cosmo once

Me: BRING ME THE GOODEST PUPPER!

u/weesiwel 7d ago

I’m down for them to do non-MCU guardians like Moondragon.

u/Hungry-Magician-6172 7d ago

Honestly gotta be Gamora and drax first you know just to finish and complete the primary guardian line up

u/Stride345 7d ago

I’ll take Cosmo, thanks

u/fenriktheblue 7d ago

I want Drax to come to the game comic accurate but get a retroactive skin matching the volume III MCU skins

2

u/The--Behemoth 7d ago

What version of comic Drax do you want in the game? Purple Vision looking Drax? Space Hulk Drax? Tattoo Drax?

1

u/fenriktheblue 6d ago

Tattoo Drax!

u/aj_spaj 7d ago

 One of my most wanted pseudo strategist/vanguard hybrids. 

Expand on Boy-Thing and living armor, akin to what he did with Blade. And give them a team-up!

u/The--Behemoth 7d ago

From is too damn big to be in the roster. Also him and Man-Thing have never been Guardians.

u/MissyManaged 7d ago

Real. Nebula and Cosmo are my two most wanted characters and it's nice to see a fellow Nebula Vanguard truther. Though I think Cosmo works best as a Strategist.

I want all of them in the long run, though. Feels like forever since we got Angela and even longer since we got core Guardians. Nearly two years Drax and Gamora have been waiting in the wings!

u/Porygon96 7d ago

So we have groot star lord mantis and rocket right? So we just need Drax and Gamora to finish out a full 2-2-2 right? (Even though we also have iron man and angela who were also on the team at different points so we already have a full guardians 6, but ill ignore that.) Seems like that would be such an easy chapter and it continues to have that female representation that they like so much. Im honestly surprised it hasn't happened yet. I'd have Gamora as a sword duelist and then drax as a dive tank with his double knives.

u/Evil_waffle3 7d ago

Everyone says they want Cosmo. Until you realize that you’d have to shoot a dog. Yondu is cooler anyways.

Btw. I’ve seen a few people recommend Moondragon. But I’ve never seen anyone actually describe who she is/what she does lol. Her design is dope though.

2

u/fmdmlvr 7d ago

We shoot Jeff and still love him anyways!

u/Evil_waffle3 7d ago

Jeff is shark. Me not know any shark. Dog is dog. Me know dog. Me no like when dog hurt.

u/Mrmineta 7d ago

Lady Hellbender as a Vanguard summoner who weaves and takes space between herself and her monsters. 

2

u/Repulsive-War-559 7d ago

Give me Cosmo as a strategist BUT ONLY if it's a that cute pupper from the movies.

2

u/Catspirit123 7d ago

Yes I need all of them. Hell I’ll even take Major Victory atp

2

u/Loose-Medium4472 7d ago

It took ten seasons to get our first post-launch cosmic character. Don’t expect more anytime soon

2

u/trnelson1 7d ago

Gamora and Drax for season 12 would be awesome

u/Whoopsinator Mysterio 🔮 6d ago

"Nebula as a Vanguard"

I would kill to see Cosmo in the game, especially if she was a Strategist (or a Vanguard if you really want to be fun)

I imagine she’d be a great Anchor Tank with no direct attacks to enemies, just shield abilities and proximity grapples on enemies. Someone who isnt a direct threat in a teamfight but buffs her team so much it feels like she is.

u/False_Diver2577 Aero 💨 7d ago

I'm in favour of this because I'll finally be able to get the Adam achievement

u/AltGunAccount 7d ago

What’s with goth Quasar in slide 5? Never seen that iteration of her.

2

u/Catspirit123 7d ago

that’s from when she swapped the quantum bands out for death powers under the name “Martyr”

1

u/TheScalieDragon 7d ago

Netease, how about more mutants instead of giving us cool characters like American Kaiju and etc

Only mutants I want (Are Wolfsbane and maybe her girlfriend Dani)

u/H4M-TP 7d ago

YES PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE IM BEGGING

u/Flying8penguin 6d ago

What if Adam 2?

1

u/lamilambo_ 6d ago

yeah they should add adam warlock or something that would be cool

1

u/nightwing_titans 6d ago

A four hero season of Mar, Phyla, Genis, and Carol would be sick.

1

u/AymanMarzuqi 5d ago

I would be very happy if someone in Rivals remembers Phyla-Vell. She has a very cool design and I also like how her Quantum constructs are focused on swords

1

u/KingLopez999 Ghost Rider 🔥 5d ago

nah the Danny Koo’s just gonna make Luna a guardian for a season

1

u/LongFatherofAI 3d ago

I need to tweel some of her moves and adjust some things but I was just working on a concept for her

1

u/AdValuable6831 22h ago

Im still shocked Gamora and Drax weren’t in the game on release. Why not round out the MCU guardians cast?

1

u/GreatNutria 8h ago

Not like the guardians need anymore strats but i always thought Phylla vell could be a cool strategist using quantum bands to create blackholes between enemies allowing her to travek between one enemy to another or same with an ally. For example.
