2) Phoenix updates
To let Phoenix utilize her abilities more efficiently, the developer has increased her Ability Energy with which her Ultimate starts. Furthermore, they increased her stats considerably and updated her Passive effects. This implies that after the Marvel Strike Force Rising from Carbonadium Ashes update, when a character with a Pre-Taunt joins Phoenix, she won't apply Taunt to herself immediately.
Moreover, Phoenix's passive bonus to damage and Max Health have also been removed.
3) Dark Phoenix updates
To make the Dark Phoenix and Omega Red a formidable duo, the developer added a Revive specifically for Omega Red (Phoenix Force) in the Marvel Strike Force Rising from Carbonadium Ashes update. Another reason this addition has been introduced is that Dark Phoenix doesn't enter the battle until Omega Red dies, which makes saving him impossible.
4) KYLN: Forged In Fire: Unlock Omega Red (Phoenix Force)
Kyln is a notorious interstellar prison that stores Omega Red (Phoenix Force)'s character shards. Blast your way through Kyln's cells using key squads and steal these shards to unlock the character.
