- Passive (True Osborn) – This ability should be prioritized because it can prevent Superior Six allies from having Ability Block and Vulnerable applied to them while Green Goblin (Classic) is Charged.
- Ultimate (Goblin Bombardment) – Maximize this ability second, as it now applies Trauma, in addition to granting Safeguard to your team if there is a Rhino or Lizard on it.
- Special (Maniacal Assault) – This ability can also be maximized, as it will apply Trauma, both in and out of Cosmic Crucible mode.
Green Goblin (Classic) ISO-8
The best ISO-8 class for Green Goblin (Classic) is Raider, thanks to the number of area attacks he can perform. Critical bonuses will also considerably increase his damage output.
Best Green Goblin (Classic) Team in Marvel Strike Force
Green Goblin (Classic) is the leader of the Superior Six but many of his effects involve assisting or receiving help from Sinister Six allies. Therefore, without the Sinister Six allies, he loses much of his efficiency. Many characters currently have the Sinister Six tag, however, the most important thing is to guarantee at least one Protector alongside Green Goblin (Classic) with this tag, Rhino, or Lizard. Aside from this, he should be teamed up with the Superior Six members for maximum overall synergy: Kraven the Hunter, Spider-Slayer, and Doctor Octopus.
