Who Are the New Heroes?
Mister Fantastic and Invisible Woman are the initial additions, bringing unique gameplay styles. Thing (tank) and Human Torch (duelist) will join later, further expanding the Fantastic Four team-up options. The Team-Up synergy enhances Invisible Woman's healing and grants Mister Fantastic a rapid health regeneration ability.
Invisible Woman
Invisible Woman offers a much-needed support role, diversifying gameplay options.

Her attacks pierce multiple targets, damaging enemies and healing allies—highly effective in crowd control. However, her limited range necessitates proximity to teammates. She can turn invisible after 6 seconds of inactivity, providing a healing period, though this is situational. A more practical invisibility tactic involves her double jump, offering a swift escape from danger.

Her right-click deploys a fragile shield on an ally, best used defensively for duelists and strategically repositioned to protect injured teammates, providing area-of-effect healing. She can also pull or push opponents, offering both offensive and defensive capabilities. A projectile sphere pulls enemies into a damaging zone, useful for chokepoints and crowd control.

Three consecutive melee attacks push enemies away, although this is often risky. Her ultimate ability creates a healing and invisibility zone, but its stationary nature leaves it vulnerable to area-of-effect attacks.

Invisible Woman provides a balanced support option, comparable to Luna Snow and Mantis in effectiveness, offering tactical depth and team support.
Mister Fantastic
Mister Fantastic presents a unique and entertaining playstyle, leveraging his elasticity.

His attacks have a medium range, with sideways aiming allowing for area-of-effect hits. His abilities fill a meter, triggering an inflated form with increased damage and durability.

His "Shift" ability absorbs damage for a short time, releasing it as a powerful shot. He can attract characters, gaining a temporary shield for himself or inflicting damage on opponents. His right-click extends his arm to immobilize enemies, allowing for further attacks or throws.

His ultimate ability is an area-of-effect attack that slows and damages opponents, potentially repeating if at least one enemy is hit. He blends duelist and tank capabilities, offering solid performance, though not quite reaching the top tier heroes.
