Best team combinations in MARVEL Mystic Mayhem (All Modes)
MARVEL Mystic Mayhem puts a lot of focus on team-building, and it's even more important if you're a free-to-play player. There are different modes, and a team good in one might struggle in another.

Best MARVEL Mystic Mayhem teams for all game modes
Before diving further into the guide, it's important to understand the core of team-building.
Every team in MARVEL Mystic Mayhem typically has three members. There are exceptions to this rule (more on that later), but you'll be mostly using characters in a team of three. Here are my two favorite archetypes.
- Striker+ Defender+ Controller: This is by far the most balanced combination to use, and you can run this from the very beginning (as you'll be given these three roles for free). The Defender absorbs the bulk of damage while the Striker is your DPS. The Controller plays the role of a supporter by pushing out heals and buffs/debuffs.
- Fighter + Defender + Controller: A bit more defensive, but it's a good choice if you're a beginner. Replace the Controller with a Striker when you need to clear enemies quickly.
In the end, you can also run your combinations, based on the characters you manage to pull. With that out of the way, let's take a look at some optimum builds for all game modes. For starters, I have put the Memento and Story modes at the end.

- Controller: Emma Frost, Hulk, Thor

Fabled Finds
The Fabled Finds section is pretty important, as it allows you to find Artifacts. The boss changes daily, so you'll have to focus on the weakness to get an advantage. Here are the four bosses available in the current version of the game and the best teams to run against them.
- Boss Lady Bullseye: Hulk, Psylocke/Thor, Iron Man/Lady Bullseye/Emma Frost.

Story and Memento Modes
After defeating the Level 40 Iron Man (which is a supreme challenge to clear), I have realized that there are no so-called based teams for either the Story or the Memento modes. These are two prime forms of content that you'll need to clear to take your account to the next level. However, every chapter has different challenges to encounter.
