yeah but it's more like the bottom 30% of that 60% in here
stark continually bitching about his cars

you're right, it's really, really terrible. those early Prologue missions were especially awful

it's like a 12-year-old's imitation of Bendis banter

lol I just kept imagining RDJ saying the text and lolling

also like how Hawkeye and Iron Man are basically interchangeable attitude-wise

spidey is deeply unlikeable. like moreso than hickman avengers even.

it's a little confusing because it feels like they're doing the Doc Ock characterization, which wouldn't have been in place circa Dark Avengers time

thank u 4 getting on my level with this immensely dumb conversation, i genuinely needed it

so has anyone completely beaten the original story mode to get all the "chance to win" stuff? i'm down to the final 11 in the dark avengers mission board.

just got taken down by a m.storm / m. black widow combo each with only ~100 hp left and both totally weak. they got my team in a loop with sting / mistress of the elements / lightning strike / hailstorm and repeat that went on for like 30 turns without me getting a hit in.

xp yeah, i beat it. as implied, the whole thing is just a prologue for these special mission setups like Unstable Iso-8 or The Hunt that we're seeing right now. the Ragnarok mission at the end was a bit of a pain when I did it the first time. overall the rewards aren't so great except for the Hero Points

at least they fixed it so you get those rewards faster, jfc it was bad before that update

it's still bad, but less so

sorry, let me rephrase: not "beaten" the missions; i mean beaten until they don't give any special reward at all? or is that what you mean?

i HATE HATE HATE when the pvp loops come in... unless of course, i'm the one looping

I'd sat 90% of the time when I'm trying to get those last rewards on a mission I get the stupid 20 crystals. And hurt feelings.

I feel you but click click click who caressssssssss

forks: oh no, i've still got a bunch of rewards to get. but i'll probably never bother to finish it - even SHIELD training at least gives you a chance of 70/140 iso; getting 20 iso instead of a reward is a huge slap in the face

diggit. i'm trying to beat it all why because ocd click click click

after the 50th time you get a 20 iso reward you'll pack it in! nah, i'll get back to it eventually too.

currently have the #1 spot in my Iron Man 40 tourney - man, it's a lot of work to stay on top. kinda dreading that i'll have to do this for another 24 hours, lol

haha just as I'm reading these last comments, I got a reward of 20 crystals

obviously I didn't click click click right, must click click click again

Bullseye: "This is all a diversion Stark. That's why we're spread out."
Iron Man: "Cool story Bro."

Seriously, can ANYONE else write this please

I admittedly laughed in delight when I read that because I knew how it would be received here

haha me too!!

"Cool your pants Black Widow!"

also lolled at the cool story bro comment

waiting for Juggernaut to talk in lolcat speak after too many headbutts

HOLY FUCK DEVIL DINOSAUR
all is forgiven

#1 on the iron man tourney when i left the house for dinner with my girl, came home two hours later to discover I placed in the 20-25 range grrrrrrrr

i feel ya bro. you gotta be on that shit like a hawk

most annoying thing was that i was at 1086 when i ran out of health/first aid and figured okay i'll come back later to get that sweet sweet spiderman cover at 1100
picked up the pad an hour later and i was down to 895
so angry much sadness many yells

placed no 1 in my tourney -- tanked in a bunch of lightning rounds as suggested and i had a real nice run of it.

now my bracket is pretty rough for the thor event tho :-(

all those covers still don't make my grey suit bw any good though!

can't figure out a good strategy for the thor event. all the battles seem to take down my health more than half, so i can't tear through a few teams on a single health pack.

god i wanted that Spider-Man cover so bad but competition was too fierce, i could barely break 1000 without getting knocked down again

great omg moment in devil dinosaur

Thor tourney is savage

the issue is that any thor over lv 60 is gonna fuck you up if you leave him for last and if you don't take out the other two, the computer will loop special attacks. I've played four matches and am ranked 120 or so which is crazy high considering, so i think most people are sitting this one out and focussing on the story missions where the point totals for the top ten are just ludicrous

i've had ok success with thor/wolvie/mBW in thor, but not great. i keep getting matched against like level 75 thors.

see i just got my thor to level 83 but it doesn't matter because with the buffs on this any moderately leveled thor is a beast

okay, i think i've figured this out: go in with thor at max level, daken and storm classic with +3 all and +3 red/yellow buffs. then either:
one shot kill the weakest guy with your red, knock out the second with your yellow and rush to knock out thor with all speed
or
red/yellow attack on thor below level 60 knocks him out and then take out the two weakers at your leisure.

at 37 and rising

that's totally the opposite approach that I have (which isn't consistently effective)
use the two weak enemies as targets until they die, using that time to build up ammo. prevent CPU from getting Red and Yellow gems which you need anyway.
unleash Classic Storm's blue power which stuns for 4 turns at max power, hopefully at that point you have enough to launch a few Red attacks and a Yellow Thunder Clap from Thor, and he's pretty much dead then

this strat would probably work with modern black widow instead of modern storm, actually

using storm and daken allows you to match greens when red/yellow aren't available for buffs and eventual AP recharge/screen clear storm attack

going in with a full red attack with thor means that you're two yellow matches away from knocking out a level 70 thor; i can generally finish a match in under a minute if i get a few lucky breaks. Made it to 25 on my ladder before i pushed my luck with a too-low-health thor and got my whole crew killed; taking some time off for sanity/gym/dinner

life is the moments between marvel puzzle quest

i like daken and modern storm pretty well as a combo. grab all the green and build up strike tiles, then use storm's green to grab a bunch of different ap, then hopefully you have enough to let thor's red/yellow loose. there's a bit more chance in this approach, but the powers complement nicely.

anyway, this strategy assumes you have your own lv 85 thor and humblebrag humblebrag

truly the humblest of brags tbh

at 5 on my ladder. taking a break there to do alaska again.

savage land is tough to level unless you are super focused on it i'm finding
god i wish we could league up so that we could all be doing group pvp. i never see ilxors on my potential kill list

Alaska reset, time to jump back in

in the... which tournament was it? double shot maybbe? i pushed up to 500 right before close to get another model 40, then realized i needed thor cards more than grey suit black widow... needed #26 instead of #25. i was #25. tried to quickly lose against a couple of low-score teams and yield immediately... did it twice, checked again... like 30 points.

everyone underneath me was tanking for thor too.

maybe this is a sign he's too good or bw grey suit is too bad.

I doubt it was intentional tanking - towards the end of the tournament everyone bumrushes and points go down super fast if you're in the top brackets

20-25 were around 480-485; 26-30 were 455-460. big gap... maybe i thought it was intentional because I was doing it intentionally.

I'm having a blast in savage, won an impossible match with the default level 6 Hawkeye, my l25 Raggie, and my l29 modern Black Widow, because I got a cascade giving me enough forests to do the super forest thing, a sea of red, which caused major cascading and AP gain and in particular both fed my Raggie to do 4 red blasts -> change to green, followed by another super forest thing, repeat until victor. I am still glowing.

also got a model 40 blue cover today on a standard cover draw, highlight of my week

madness of march vault has 4 roster slots in it, it's as good as the december one.

Multiple Man feels like they didn't fully think out that character. for example the AI team can match 3 dupes and nothing happens and their turn ends.

Honestly I think that is hilarious and one of the funniest things they could have introduced into the game.

yeah even the way his active power works and the weird way it "uses" 0 AP feels buggy

and yup, i sprung right away for the March vault. anything with free roster slots is max value at this point, i might even reset it to get more
