I don't like that it's added an extra "acknowledge your shards" tap after every token you open
― Screamin' Jay Gould (The Yellow Kid), Thursday, 21 November 2019 22:01 (four years ago) link
I worry that I'll put all my 5* shards into one character and then that character will get nerfed before I can use them.
It's better than the old system, in any case.

Don't sell any max champion characters in the next week. They're changing the rewards and giving out some retroactive rewards for rostered characters.

Yeah this looks great. I’ll get my 5* Iceman champed right away!
― L'assie (Euler), Saturday, 7 December 2019 18:48 (four years ago) link
I got 6 5* covers from the retroactive awards, plus a leg token that gave me another 5*. Nothing on characters that I can use yet (all in the 1-8 cover range), but nice nonetheless.

really my only complaint. the new ui is just *more* stuff to click thru/on.
― Mordy, Tuesday, 10 December 2019 21:27 (four years ago) link
I have to admit I miss the thrill of getting an entire card I wanted instead of just .03 of one.
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Tuesday, 10 December 2019 21:51 (four years ago) link
I got something like 6-7 extra 5* covers and… I champed Wasp. God help me, I champed 5* Wasp.
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Wednesday, 11 December 2019 00:09 (four years ago) link
I got 10 5* covers. I champed Iceman. Now my Cable is pretty close too. A good haul!

Thanks to this, I champed Kitty, 5 Storm, and Archangel, plus got 2 Beta Ray Bill covers
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 16 December 2019 16:12 (four years ago) link
nice on Kitty, jealous! I got 200ish more, let me champ my Archangel lol, got Cable to one cover away, Prof X 2 away. 10 champed 5* now!
― L'assie (Euler), Monday, 16 December 2019 16:13 (four years ago) link
I've got 11 champed 5*s now (Okoye, GladiThor, Surfer, Gambit, OML, Thanos, Archangel, InfiniCap, Kitty, Storm, LolWasp)
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 16 December 2019 16:41 (four years ago) link
I have Thor, Jessica Jones, Doctor Strange, Phoenix, Iceman, BeardoCap, OML, Archangel, Silver Surfer, and Ghost Rider
I REALLY want Okoye and Kitty obv
― L'assie (Euler), Monday, 16 December 2019 16:44 (four years ago) link
I REALLY want Strange, JJ, and Iceman
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 16 December 2019 16:49 (four years ago) link
I got really lucky with Okoye; she's way higher level than any of my other champs (463)
Basically, I just chase yellow and teamups and let .5 Thor smash the other teams into little bits
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 16 December 2019 16:50 (four years ago) link
Yeah that's what I want to do!
JJ and Strange are great, the former on defense, the latter for PVE.
But Kitty, mmm... I can reliably beat her now with Strange+Bishop in PVP, but Bishop always dies, so it eats up health packs.
― L'assie (Euler), Monday, 16 December 2019 18:24 (four years ago) link
This bonus load was from the weird way they handled 4* retroactive awards the first time around. Only 5* I got was Iceman, now at 4 covers.
I still only have Phoenix as a 5* champion. Dr. Strange is at 11 covers, and I suspect I'll get him to 13 in a few months.

The forum meltdown over the initial reward payout was spectacular
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 16 December 2019 19:37 (four years ago) link
So what ARE you supposed to do against 4* Carol in PVP, anyway?
― Nhex, Friday, 27 December 2019 03:41 (four years ago) link
Stun her. G4mora and 4Iceman are the best options but anyone who can stun and/or go invisible is good against her. (Vulture is also an option since he can remove countdowns with his blue.)

I have 4 of his covers and he's already somewhat useful.

VIP is good value... and it helps your friends hint hint lol
― Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Friday, 24 January 2020 00:18 (four years ago) link
with all these Okoye offers lately I just champed her! after however many years, yay.
12 champed 5* now, guess I'll collect shards for Cable now who is at 5-4-3. maybe I should just for Kitty Pride but she's kinda boring to play since you need to run her with 4rocket to make her great and I don't like always being so locked down.
― juntos pedemos (Euler), Monday, 27 January 2020 18:01 (four years ago) link
Run her with OML instead; in PvE, you get two shields that limit initial damage, then firing her red puts two strikes on the board that enables her buff mechanic and makes you virtually untouchable while dropping massive hits within 2-3 turns, plus any power that damages you throws 3 attacks on the board that accelerates the carnage. An undercovered but color-complete Beta Ray Bill makes the whole thing ludicrously funny because he drops a countdown that adds even more protects off his blue that keeps the buff train going AND every time you match a protect, you get blue and green to refire the protect countdown and to trigger his 3-hit nuke, now bolstered by all of OML's free red strikes.
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2020 18:09 (four years ago) link
(obv "her" = "Kitty")
good idea! I have OML champed. by contrast I need 4 covers for Kitty Pride (though I have two saved covers, she's at 3-7-1 really, ugh). Beta Ray Bill seems fun, I have him at 0-4-1 with some hope of champing him before he leaves LL since that'll be some months still.
― juntos pedemos (Euler), Monday, 27 January 2020 18:13 (four years ago) link
Yeah, I was looking through my roster looking for anyone else to pair her with other than R&G; my Hela and Cable are undercovered but I have OML champed and he can tank on black and has a passive true heal and I went "HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM"
If I get tired of BRB, I may switch to Nico or Cloak & Dagger as alternate 4*s that can help accelerate the whole process
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2020 18:20 (four years ago) link
I've also been super, super into 5* Gambit/5* Storm/who cares
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2020 18:21 (four years ago) link
I sold my 5* Gambit at the nerf and only have a few covers now. 5*Storm I have at 3-5-2 so I might get her champed eventually.
― juntos pedemos (Euler), Monday, 27 January 2020 18:35 (four years ago) link
I refused to sell him because he was one of the only 5* champs I had at the time and I didn't believe he would remain worthless; eventually someone would come along that could help make him relevant again. Storm is great because she passively puts out enough charged tiles for Gambit's red to hit at max value at the same time his passive gives you enough red to fire it; a single red match accelerates it and also fills up enough of Storm's black for her to fire her nuke at will; rinse/repeat
At this point, I just use Gambit's purple to wipe specials off the board; damage from the countdowns actually firing is a bonus
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Monday, 27 January 2020 18:40 (four years ago) link
I need to stop hoarding CP, don't I? I'm never gonna bite on those 500CP offers... Kind of in bewilderment that you guys have ever champed a 5*
― Nhex, Tuesday, 28 January 2020 00:02 (four years ago) link
Just got my first 5* with five covers (OML yellow, so niiice). Day 1098, so hopefully I'll get a second yellow by day 2000.
― reggae mike love (polyphonic), Tuesday, 28 January 2020 00:57 (four years ago) link
A lot of people claim that hoarding helps you champ the latest 5* and there is truth to that theory but if you just play for consistent progression, you can steadily grow your roster and more avenues for CP and legendary tokens open up for you. I think I have only ever hoarded a max of 300 CP (maybe 500?) and I’ve never spent it on a Heroes for Hire deal or a specific cover.
Speaking of which, I champed 5* Captain Marvel today because I got a cover from the special Okoye store and I thought why not?
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Tuesday, 28 January 2020 02:23 (four years ago) link
The iso-8 multiplier bonus they gave us over the holidays got me back into the game, though once it was over I stopped completing the Deadpool dailies once more. PvP still hopeless but I'm fine with grinding it out in SP as I always have, until I inevitably get bored again.
― Nhex, Tuesday, 28 January 2020 03:02 (four years ago) link
I took a couple months off but then got back into it again.
I can't hoard cp or LL tokens, I'm playing for instant gratification. Delayed gratification is for real life, not video games.
Champed 5*s rule, the game gets so much faster...which makes you think, if you're just trying to get your play over with, why are you playing? But I suppress that thought.
― juntos pedemos (Euler), Tuesday, 28 January 2020 08:10 (four years ago) link
I don’t view it as playing to get play over with; I think of it as trying to set up a jackpot on a virtual slot machine.
― totally unnecessary bewbz of exploitation (DJP), Tuesday, 28 January 2020 13:05 (four years ago) link
yeah that's...healthier.
really I just like match-three-ing, even if four completes per node of PVE is too much
― juntos pedemos (Euler), Tuesday, 28 January 2020 15:03 (four years ago) link
Stuck at 5/1/5 for ages, Dr. Strange has finally been championed. I had to trade my 3 duplicate covers and get 500 shards to do it, but now it's done. Next up is Clint Barton, currently 3/4/3.
I find that 5* Carnage and Prof X are both pretty good at low covers for their passives. Carnage makes free matches and low-power special tiles. X creates board shake and damage off of match-4s.
