there doesnt seem to be a whole hell of a lot of options for new ATAs in this set.
West Coast Avengers - super super doubtful as they seemed to have completely forgot about them early on in the set.
Young Avengers - with only vision having the keyword its doubtful.
Marauders - it would make sense to have one with Mr. Sinisters trait.
Shadow Council - 1 generic and 1 named figure have this one. no one would use it, no one would care, but it would be an easy one to throw in for the hell of it.
New Warriors - only 4 modern age figs have this...3 are Nova. I doubt it,
Lady Liberators - 7 different women have this keyword. i could easily see this one happening.
Heroes For Hire - i want this one the most and i could see it happening, but half of their figures cross over with Marvel Knights so i could see it not happening.
Inhumans - imo the most likely of them all to get an ATA this set.
Current Top 5 wants: MM220 Dark Phoenix, ASM041B Hobgoblin, CA055 Kitty Pryde, HA049 Ultron, CT028 Doombot X9[/u]
I think the Lady Libeators might have a decent shot as they've really picked up that keyword in the past few sets.
Wasp, Spider-Woman, Scarlet Witch and the Invisible Woman LE all have the keyword which is pretty close to the highest for a non-standard "Avengers" keyword in the set.
Maybe the Inhumans for the same reason. (Crystal, Lockjaw, The Unspoken, Quicksilver, along with several other recent remakes)
But I know a way, we can make you a warrior,
Even though now you're a wuss. It's the way of the Platypus!
Naw, we need ATAs for the themes of the set like Pet Avengers and Chaos War
Lol, good one. Godsquad needs an ata since they're such heavy hitters in this set. I can see them doing lady liberators, inhumans, hank pym avengers, and probably shafow council. And like god damit jason mentioned, a marauders ata for his trait. I hope it's a good one, mr. Sinister is easily my favorite figure from the set.
Based on the consistent track record of giving ATA's to the more prevalent keywords (though some exceptions pop up every now and then) here's thus far the most frequent non-generic keywords that aren't already linked with TA's (Avengers, Hydra, SHIELD, MoE, Etc.)
Note: This is including LE's and the CTD set. And I'm still missing the keywords to Marquee Vision and some of the chases (#55)

I'd say Lady Liberators and Inhumans are a lock. Probably Shadow Council too for swarm teams. I do think they'll throw a curve ball in there and finally make an ATA for Illuminati. Or not.
I'm set on Lady Liberators, and Inhumans seem to be a good guess too, I'm betting on it being based on the Royal Family. I also have a feeling that we might see a new Thunderbolts ATA as well as one, if not two Avengers ATAs. The thing with the Avengers is that their TA is next to useless outside of certain team builds, so giving them an ATA or two would really do well to making them more viable threats. I'm expecting the Mighty Avengers ATA and a West Coast Avengers ATA with the West Coast Avengers or Avengers keyword as a prerequisite.
Since they gave the New Warriors keyword to Tigra, I was thinking they might make that the "Avengers Resistance" keyword, which could give them a cool ATA.
