Iso-8

Choosing an ISO-8 class for Brawn is very simple. You have 2 options.

The first option is to give him the Healer class like the majority of other support characters and to use him only as healing support, regardless of his utilities.

However, if you want Brawn to always steals all buff from enemies and spread it to all GAMMA members with his special, then you must give him the Skirmisher ISO-8 class.

In my opinion for AW, he will definitely need Skirmisher to be prioritized.

T4 Priority

U – Ultimate ability

S – Special ability

P – Passive ability

B – Basic ability

Ultimate – Increased Redistribution and Stealing of HP + grants Immunity to all Gamma members. Being able to place Immunity on all Gamma members is crucial for all game segments!

Special – Increased damage + Copy, Clear and Spread all positive effects. This improvement is essential for fighting with teams that rely on buffs such as Infinity Watch, Eternals, etc… You will not see essential differences in War, Arena, or Cosmic Crucible battles but it will be crucial for Scourges and War Saga.

Passive – Increased Resistance for all Gamma members + grants Safeguard and Immunity at the start of War battle. For having an efficient Gamma team in War, it is mandatory that Brawn cannot be controlled. Safeguard and Immunity grants exactly that.

Theory Craft

Amadeus Cho aka Brawn got his name after Mozart. His parents had a passion for history and art, and they decided to name their son after a famous musical genius. Amadeus Cho showed signs of his own genius at a youthful age just like his famous counterpart.

Unfortunately, that has drawn the attention of a villain, Pythagoras Dupree, who wanted to kill all people who could challenge his own intellect. That unfortunate event led to the death of Cho’s parents and his union with Bruce Banner aka Hulk.

Amadeus was practically raised by Bruce who offered him education and a chance to study Gamma Radiation. Over the years Cho became Hulk’s assistant who himself became exposed to Gamma Radiation. His exposure led to the birth of a totally awesome Hulk who could control his rage. At least, Amadeus was in the belief that he could control it until he couldn’t anymore.

Once he embraced the rage in its nature, Amadeus became a superhero known as Brawn.

In MSF, Brawn is a Global Support, who further increases the unbelievable Health pool of the Gamma team. He is the cleanser, buffer, and healer of the team who makes Gamma members significantly more dangerous and harder to kill.

Basic Ability

Basic Ability causes heavy damage and places Offense Down on a single target. Additionally, it places Regeneration on the most injured Gamma ally.

Unlike Abomination, Brawn has a usual Basic ability. It is nothing out of the ordinary even though it grants a minor sustain to the most injured ally. Most importantly, it is fully effective only in the Gamma team.

Special Ability

Special Ability costs 5 energy and can be used in the first turn. It causes minor damage against primary and adjacent targets, but it clears and copies all positive buffs before spreading it on all Gamma allies. In War, this ability cannot be blocked.

Brawn Special Ability is amazing! It is ineffective against Safeguard, but against everything else, it is simply overpowered. In practice, that means that Brawn will steal all buffs from targeted enemies and spread them to all allies.

The damage is not important at all because the ability will literally transform the enemy’s advantage into their disadvantage. It will be of utmost importance that Brawn Focus can beat the enemy’s resistance so giving him Skirmisher Class instead of the Healer class may be mandatory.

Ultimate Ability

Brawn’s Ultimate Ability also costs 5 Energy and can be used in the first turn. It causes minimal damage to the target but steals 35% of their Maximum Health. 500% of the stolen HP is redistributed as healing among GAMMA allies, bypassing Heal Block in the process.

At the same time, Brawn will place Immunity on all GAMMA allies and remove all negative effects from the entire GAMMA team. It is important to know that Health Steal ignores Deathproof when a target drops below a critical HP amount.

Stealing a percentage of enemy HP is always an important ability, especially in PVE where you fight enemies with significantly increased HP. Stealing 35% of HP … well that is a lot. For example, Ebony Maw steals 12% of maximum HP, while Dark Phoenix steals 20% of maximum HP. Only this ability alone would make Brawn a META for Dark Dimension Global Nodes, except it is single-based and affect only GAMMA members.

In short, this ability is insane and will grant immediate full healing to the entire GAMMA team. I just hope that AI will not prioritize ultimate in AW Defense’s first turn because that would be stupid … on most occasions but not all.

Passive Ability

Passive Ability grants a Regeneration equal to 20% of Max HP each turn as well as a permanent HP increase to all GAMMA allies. In addition, when any GAMMA ally drops below 50% HP, their Speed Bar will be increased by 15% and they will get Offense Up and 3 Deathproofs.

Also, all GAMMA members who have Regeneration and Heal Block will be cleared from Heal Bloc each turn. 

In AW, Brawn will start fights with Safeguard and Immunity if Hulk is on the team. He will also place Speed Up and 3 Deflects (only on Offense) to all Gamma allies on spawn.

Finally, Brawn will permanently increase the Resistance of all GAMMA members by 200%.

This passive is deadly even outside AW. HP of the GAMMA team will be further improved in addition to Abomination’s passive. When they drop below 50% their damage will be almost doubled while their regeneration will remain the same boosted with 3 Deathproofs !!??!! I don’t know how to explain to you the potential of it, but just imagine how hard is to kill ordinary Hulk and She-Hulk when they are below 50%.

The effect of Brawn’s passive ability in AW is sufficient to explain. Compared to them, Weapon X will look like an ordinary synergy – trust my words … And this presumption is given only after learning kits of two characters without their Leader.

Overall, to have final judging we must know the stats of Brawn. Knowing that all Horseman members so far have increased base stats, it is only logical to assume that Brawn will also be boosted compared to the rest of the roster.

I don’t know when he will be available for farming but if it is soon, I strongly suggest that you leave at least 2 Global spots in DD5 for him and Abomination. You will not make a mistake if you didn’t finish DD5 so far. That will be the smartest decision for two reasons – because of their kit and because they are Bio.
