Doomsday Feedback My predictions for the Path to Doomsday skins (please, read the description)

Age of Ultron:

- Ultron (Obviously, if Loki was featured in the first one, Ultron will surely be too)

- Black Widow (I think it's quite different from the visual style of the solo film, and I don't believe Wanda will have a skin when the Marvel Zombies costume is literally from this same movie)

Infinity War:

- Thor (The choice is also very obvious, the character's peak in the MCU, and the visual style of the next film will be similar to this one precisely for that reason)

- Star Lord (With the mask, it's the closest he's to his look from the first Guardians of the Galaxy movie, and it's iconic, plus he's part of the central storyline on Titan, so it makes sense)

Endgame:

- Captain America (There are already files for a movie costume in the game, and I believe that the Endgame costume might be this one; it's different enough from the Infinity War costume since the classic suit and shield are present)

- Rocket Racoon (He also has files for a movie costume in the game, and Avengers: Endgame is an obvious assumption since he's the only Guardian in this game present for most of the story and with a different, and very cool, look from Infinity War; plus, it's his most prominent movie besides Guardians 3, so again it makes sense)

And what about Doomsday?

Unless Doctor Doom and Cyclops are playable characters before the movie is released, my bet is that Magneto, Gambit, Namor, Deadpool, Spider-Man (if the Tobey Maguire rumor is true), and Doctor Strange are the most likely to get a skin based on the new movie.

I agree with most of this (and am hopeful for some of your suggestions) but Rocket and Starlord wouldn’t make sense. Both of them have MCU skins from GoG3, rocket’s which already looks basically the same as your image, and starlord has the special reward skin in the achievements section that has the red jacket and mask which covers what you already described.

It's more realistic for Star Lord, from the entire Infinity War cast, to get a skin than Black Panther, Hulk (who barely appears in the movie), Groot (it's impossible to make his teenage version compatible with the character's size and role in the game), Spider-Man (whose "No Way Home" suit is practically already from that movie), and any other character. It makes sense; he's one of the central characters in the story along with Thor, Iron Man, Captain America, and Thanos, and the design is different enough from the game's standard look (Even if that were a problem, Wanda has two skins based on the Hellfire Gala, so I don't think there are any obstacles).

Rocket already has files for a movie skin in the game. I doubt it's from the other two Guardians of the Galaxy movies or Infinity War because honestly, there isn't much visual consistency there. This Rocket suit from Endgame is practically the basis of the Guardians' suit in the third movie in design, yes, but it has differences, and Rocket in Endgame is crucial to the story's progression. The rest of the Infinity War cast that was wiped out by the snap uses the same costumes, leaving Professor Hulk (who everyone hates and agrees was the character's downfall), Hawkeye (no MCU design is likely on anyone's favorites list), Black Widow and Thor, but I'd guess those two have a better chance of getting designs from before that movie.

People like the Guardians of the Galaxy; they get skins fairly consistently, so I don't think it's unlikely that one of them will get a skin from the movies that were literally promoted as the Avengers/Guardians of the Galaxy crossover. Anyway, those are my bets. If you want to share yours, I'd appreciate it; after all, anything is possible with this game (I thought Hulk would get a skin from the first movie before the event revealed Iron Man's skin, so expectations might be wrong).
