Hope Summers
Trained in the future by Cable, Hope uses an amazing arsenal and the power of the Phoenix to fight evil.
Believed to be the messiah destined to save mutants and humans alike, first new mutant born since the M-Day, Hope Summers was saved from the Purifiers by Cable and taken to the future to be raised by him. Growing up, she was chased through time by Bishop who believed she was the source of his time's destruction. During The Messiah War, she encountered many X-Men of the past and formed close bonds with some of them. After Jean Grey let go of the Phoenix Force through Cyclops, Hope became its new host. Taking away the flames of the Dark Phoenix, Hope became the White Phoenix. Together with Scarlet Witch, she used the powers of the Phoenix Force to break the "No More Mutants" Spell, bringing back the mutant race and supposedly killing the Phoenix Force.

Mission StrengthsHer first right click attack is relatively fast (the fastest of her three). It tends to hit multiple enemies when against her. At a distance, however, it typically hits only one or two. Her second right click attack shoots through enemies to hit ones behind them. Her third is a close range attack, but hits multiple enemies and deals a great amount of damage. Her HU KOs weak enemies with full life. It is difficult for enemies to knock her down and she is difficult to trap. She dodges well and relatively easy to maneuver.
Mission WeaknessesHer combo is slow. Her HU pales in comparison to the very similar Phoenix's HU. If the enemy is not in close range, it will not have any damage whatsoever. Her second and third right click attacks are slow and her third is poorly ranged. Her movement and jumping is a little slow. She loses life very easy.

Basic Combo Total : 150HP
Light 'Em Up!: -26HP. This attack is ranged and hits multiple enemies, especially when in extreme close range. Open Fire: -40HP. This attack is ranged and hits through enemies, allowing for multiple hits when enemies are lined up behind each other. Flame Strike: -87HP. This attack is for the most part not ranged, but does hit multiple enemies and is great for some KOs. Hero Up: -90HP. The range is not real great, but it is also good for some KOs. |
Playing Tips
- Switch targeted enemies during her combo to knock them away from when one closes in. This will help her to lose less life.
- Do not finish her combo. Instead, use the first few attacks by her combo. Stop at or just before she lunges to hit the boss with her gun. The beginning of her combo is relatively strong, so it will be enough to take out the boss, but you have to sacrifice combo for survival on the boss level.
- HU is great for hitting a large group of new enemies. Try to draw them together first to ensure more KOs by jumping on their heads and over them. When cornered by enemies, use her HU or third right click attack to KO and then break free.
