Since most people are currently self-isolating at home, they're looking for various ways to pass the time online. Many folks have taken to Twitter with fun questions like "What movie meals would you like to eat?" and "How would you change a movie title to fit the quarantine?". Another trend has been building hypothetical teams using a set amount of money, and Entertainment Weekly recently shared a Marvel version that has the Internet abuzz. With only $15, you can choose your MCU team with members of the franchise being available to "buy" with prices ranging from $1 to $5. Well, the list included Scarlet Witch/Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) for only $2, and the Internet had some choice words about that very low cost.

"Which #Avengers would make your team if you were given ONLY $15? Share your picks with us," Entertainment Weekly tweeted. You can check out the full list below:

As you can see, Wanda Maximoff is worth only $2, which is extremely low considering her immense power. The same goes for her partner, Vision (Paul Bettany), who is worth a shocking $1. Many Marvel fans took to Twitter to debate the characters' worth, pointing out that Wanda and Vision are some of the strongest Avengers, and that Wanda was the only character to truly scare Thanos in the final battle in Avengers: Endgame. Check out some of the best tweets from Scarlet Witch fans below…

History Lesson

Remember this girl took down 4 heroes at the same time Steve, Nat, Thor, Bruce (Avengers: Age of Ultron). Stop Thanos (who has 5 stones) with one hand while the other destroys the Mind Stone. Almost killed Thanos in Endgame. Spending 2$, aye? #ScarletWitch pic.twitter.com/lyUuU8xGoY

Sexism

Scarlet witch, who had thanos on the ropes by herself, is on the same tier as happy, who gets nervous in front of Spider-Man’s aunt. Sexism https://t.co/MANf8EVfWo

You can catch Scarlet Witch and Vision next in WandaVision, the new series coming to Disney+. The show was supposed to premiere in December, but it's unclear if it will be moved due to Marvel's recent schedule changes.
