In the meantime I think it is fun to go over every character in the game and talk about my expected changes. I have no inside knowledge so this is going to be speculation with some snippets of stuff AMG has told us about in the interviews.
It's probably a good idea to have the Characters list open to see what some of the changes are.
Strap in, this will be a long one:
Characters (230)
Abomination (5)
No changes. He's perfect the way he is.
Adam Warlock (7)
No changes. It's pretty clear that his entire pack was designed with the new Stamina baseline in mind.
Agent Venom (4)
7/6 Stamina. It's going to be interesting if he is actually touched as he was already in last years update (just to clear up wording)
Amazing Spider-Man (5)
7/6 or maybe even 7/7 Stamina. ASM is tanky but I don't think him staying under the new 4 threat baseline is unlikely.
Ancient One (4)
7/6 Stamina.
Angel (3)
6/6 Stamina.
Angela (5)
No changes.
Ant-Man (3)
He either gets to keep Extracts in Tiny Form or can place them when dropping through transforming. 6/6 Stamina
Apocalypse (6)
His leadership is supposed to get a little nerf. No changes otherwise
Archangel (4)
6/7 Stamina
Arnim Zola (3)
Increase to 3 phyios defense.
Avalanche (3)
6/6 Stamina

6/6 Stamina

6/6 Stamina
Beta Ray Bill (4)
7/6 Stamina
Bishop (4)
7/6 Stamina

Black Cat (3)
No changes (so keep her Stamina under the average to indirectly nerf her a bit)
Black Dwarf (4)
Replace Enforced Oblivion with Charge. 8/7 Stamina
Black Panther (4)
7/6 Stamina. Push on Builder gains a may. Mantle of the Black Panther is limited to one attack.
Black Panther, Chosen of Bast (3)

Really looking forward to his update as I would love to get him on the table a lot more.
Moon Knight (3)
6/6 Stamina
Moondragon (3)
No changes
Ms. Marvel (3)
6/6 Stamina and hopefully a change in her transform mechanic to allow us to use the much cooler Embiggend model more than 15 seconds in a game.

Mystique (3)
6/6 Stamina
M‘Baku (4)
7/7 Stamina

6/6 Stamina
Nimrod, the Hunter (5)
No changes
Nova (5)
No changes
N‘Kantu, the Living Mummy (3)
6/5 Stamina (he's super tanky already and they might feel like 6/6 would be too much for him 🤔)
Okoye (2)
No changes
Omega Red (4)
Here we know that Shick said Omega Red would get a small but meaningful buff. Is it going to be movement Speed M?
Also the Absorb Essence Wild Trigger on the Spender should work per Wild not just once.
Death Factor should only cause 1 self damage which would be further helped by 7/6 Stamina overall. I'm excited to get this fantastic sculpt back on the table, so let's hope it turns out good!
Omega Sentinel (4)
No changes
Phoenix (6)
Some change to the Phoenix tokens. Maybe loosing the tokens when forced to transform could be enough.
Prime Sentinel (3)

7/7 Stamina
Rocket Raccoon (2)
How dare you suggest that Rocket isn't dast perfect already?!

Sentinel MK4 (4)
Already updated, though two different artworks to be able to differentiate would have been helpful.
Sentinel Prime MK4 (5)
Already updated
Shadow King (5)
I don't know. Arguably the very best sculpt in the game, Shadow King needs a big overhaul to make him an actual option on the table.
Maybe Force Projection is not an action anymore and that is enough but I'm not sure.

6/7 Stamina
Sin (3)
6/6 Stamina. Spender decreased to 3 Power and increased to 7 dice. Timing on the leadership changed to Asset drop part first and push part second (so you don't deny yourself the chance to get an Asset drop by pushing first)
