I swear I'm cursed. I got Colossus to 60 and really enjoyed playing the DPS bruiser role. Now he's getting his damage gutted on the TC. This happens every. single. fucking. time, I play a new game. Find class > level to max > devs gut class > quit.
He should still be pretty fun though.

And he'll change again, after his level 52 review. I know the feeling, but I've come to learn that with new games or any for that matter, there will always be class changes/nerfs no matter what. You have to remember too that they are changing they way damage is being calculated, so his skills may look like they are being nerfed, but the other affixes/buffs you get from skills/gear may actually make him better. Plus with the omega system you'll be able to buff him in a particular area too, AND things aren't final on TC either
I'm having a lot of fun with Hulk right now, almost rank 5 legendary and 1 more artifact left to bless. I'm hoping he doesn't get shit canned either.

Having the right character for your play style is a big plus. I haven't played much but couldn't help but take advantage of the BOGO so I bought Nightcrawler, who is one of my all time favorites, and it has really made the game even better for me. I was having fun with Daredevil but it was a little bland but I became much more interested in the game and was reading and learning so much more about the character because I loved the character and wanted to see how they worked him out.
So from a noob's perspective, play whatever in the beginning to learn the ropes and understand the menu's, NPC's, abilities, etc. and then get a character you enjoy in terms of story and play style. Really enjoying this game thus far.

Thor is in a pretty bad spot balance wise, but other than him every hero can whip a lot of ass. Black Panther has been talked up a lot on this forum, but if you want another agile melee type Daredevil is pretty good right now. His combo points build fast if you use the nunchuck basic, and he has basically a clone of monks seven sided strike from D3.
But like other people say, just pick the hero you like the most while learning the game.

Colossus already had his level 52 review. I don't see how he's getting gutted on the TC. They have never shit canned a hero in this game as long as I have been playing it. When they re-release and end up weakening something they listen to the feedback and adjust it within a week.And he'll change again, after his level 52 review.

There's plans for Rogue, there's a thread on the forums, apparently they want to give her Absorb which will generate a unique ability for every boss fight, but as for when, that's another issue.
There's also a Beast thread but seems a lot less motivated, so probably not soon.
Colossus nerf is a change in scaling on colossal punch and steel punch or something, basically they do half the damage they do on live. Which completely ruins him, at least from what I understand.

Daredevil seems like a fun melee with enough aoe clear and some ranged abilities like his bouncing baton thing that he feels pretty solid. Black panther from all accounts is pretty much a bad ass.

Storm got hit with the kind of "balancing" I expect from Blizzard, not Gaz. If she was so broken that she needed a -75% nerf to FT and her ultimate gutted, then they should have bumped her level 52 review up the priority list and done it all at once.

They also gave her Ball Lightning a 252% buff and buffed the shit out of her crashing hail too. Storm didn't even come close to getting shit-canned. They fixed a bug where FT was hitting way harder than it was supposed to, way harder than the tooltip even said.

Crashing Hail was buffed--mainly due to making all of Storm's damage into energy--but the ball lightning thing wasn't really an improvement. Bigger direct hits can't make up for shorter arcs that do much less. Part of that is a UI thing, at least for me. I constantly lose track of the stupid mouse cursor with all the shit going on the screen, and aiming for direct hits is a bitch. And you can't deny that the ultimate was gutted.
She may not have been shit-canned, but she got knocked down several pegs. Hell, look at the Cosmic Kurse contest. Best time of 2:12 is just sad for a hero that's all about damage.
But hey, thanks for the BP tips. I probably wouldn't have given him a shot without seeing your posts, and I'm liking him about as much as I liked Storm while leveling.

2:12 is very respectable especially considering she is a squishy character and everything in that terminal has the ability to one shot her. Kurse is a tough terminal for her, put up a contest for cosmic MODOK and she would probably be one of the fastest run times. She's a little weaker now but nothing drastic and she needed to be reigned in. Before those nerfs she did way too much AE damage. She's still up there as top dog for AE in my book, just not as ludicrous.

*edit*
To not just be a grammar nazi douche, I agree with Khane. The only reason I have her benched is because her gear is mostly finished and her CCR is maxed. Otherwise I think she's still my fastest 60 for clearing cosmics.

Doubtful it will be a playable hero. I forsee a team-up of SS, Rogue, or Groot even if they will eventually be released.

Plenty of squishy characters did it in less than 2 minutes, some considerably less.
I'm not denying that Storm needed balancing. I just think the way they did it was really shitty. Changes of that magnitude should have been done as part of the level 52 revamp, it's retarded to have to adjust to huge swings in power in a patch only to have to do it all again a couple months later. Her 52 is still planned for this month last I heard.
