Marvel's best battlefield tactician...
This thread is to determine who the best overall battlefield tactician is. Please keep in mind that there is a difference between best tactician and best strategist. Strategy is more online with pre battle planning and prep whereas tactics are applied in real time mid battle, using a combination of smarts and skill set.
So with that said, who are Marvels best battlefield tacticians?
My picks are:
Spiderman- I can't think of one other Marvel character who so regularly punches above his weight class that manages to come out on top more often. Can you?
Nova Prime- Cmon, Do I really even have to explain this? Be it flying solo, or leading a group, you'd be hard pressed to find a better combat tactician then one Richard "Dick" Rider.
Steve Rodgers- That is all
What say you?

Dr. Doom. He excels in both areas, imo.

I can't really disagree now that he's been mentioned.

So it doesn't matter whether they fly solo or manage an entire team?
Steve Rogers and Cyclops then. Best answers imo.

Wolverine. Who also certainly fills the title of 'tactician' better than Spider-Man.
That being said, what Rage said for the actual thread-winning answer.

Wolverine is a tank. Spidey uses the ol grey-matter combined with his skillset more often to come out on top. That's he's schtick.

Apparently. Yeah. Genis knows all the outcomes. He knows that he tactically loses each scenario.

Except for when he can't tank it...

Logan has a ridiculous amount of combat training and such under his belt, and has stupidly good tactics feats under his belt- I remember reading a scan where he was supposed to be completing the Danger Room on one of it's higher settings while beating a bunch of super computers in chess?
Spider-Man's smarter, but Logan knows combat.

I don't think he was actually playing chess.

and the thing about wolverine fighting the danger room on max, happens the pannel or two before, but could nor find any scans of it. He max out the danger room was coasting on neutral
