Poll Do you like the idea of Uncanny Avengers? (25 votes)
The idea behind the original concept was, in the fallout of AvX a X-Men team and a Avengers team joins forces to form a new team.

I didn't hate the concept. I've never cared for the Avengers, but I thought it sounded somewhat interesting. It should of ended after Remender's run, though. It no longer feels like the team's came together, it's arguable if it ever did. Instead it feels like some X-Men joined the Avengers.
@immolation: The majority of mutants haven't tried to be on the Avengers
Yes.
It's the only logical conclusion for any mutant-turned-superhero in the Marvel Universe.
Nobody wants to be in school forever. Except Cyclops.

This basically.
I mean I guess I could also say that i felt like they used a little bit too much of the X-Men's mythos to build a threat for the team, so it really felt like it was something that should've been an X-Men story (especially considering what was going on in most X-Books at the time) But ended up being the Avengers going after X-Men threats.
I like the idea... but the execution really sucks. This series desperately needs to overlap with other x-books frequently to make any kinds of sense at all.
The concept wasn't bad, but calling them Avengers wasn't the right start. Felt like a takeover, and after AvX those feelings were especially amplified. Remender had some nice ideas, turning Kang and Apocalypse into rivals was a gold one. Only that wasn't really Apoc... and while I consider Apoc Twins some of the better new villains, I wanted the rivalry be strictly regarding the big guns. The next thematic XandA adversary combo would've been Ultron and Sentinels. Strange it still didn't happen.
I just felt like the concept was a better one for New Warriors instead of it being an Avengers book. It seemed like the New Mutants or Generation X members should have joined up with the New Warriors like Justice, Firestar, and Namorita
Here, here. It made very little sense to have experienced members of both teams who were already indoctrinated instead of focusing on younger characters that tended not to get any focus on them. Justice, Firestar, re-powered Moonstar, Chamber, Husk, Cannonball, and Night Thrasher could have joined up with Havok, Polaris, Scarlet Witch, and She Hulk or Quicksilver to make a more balanced team IMNSHO. I initially included Captain America to give them legitimacy but I prefer characters who don't often get the spotlight getting the chance to lead or co-lead.
