new scoring system is baffling now; i have a hard time cracking the top 1000 on the first Hulk set, despite playing constantly

yeah, it's a bad look

Oh god I got into a 1v1 Grey Widow (L15) slapfight in the 3* event, much hilarity ensued, I thought I was styling when I whipped out my pistol shot ability, putting myself in the physical damage lead and then my opponent busted out GW's sniper ability, BOOM, single shot kill.

Woo hoo, everybody gets a Hulk!

YOU get a hulk and YOU get a hulk and

I didn't get a hulk.

Wait. I got a hulk.

YOU got a hulk!

My queue gets a hulk. No roster space hulky.

Where's my elephant Hulk?

got Hulk, got Big Pun on a draw, f yes

Hes not a hulk he just click a lot

my characters on my phone aren't strong enough to win any bouts in that hulk thingy yet. do I need to win one to get a hulk? :(

You have to beat the mission "A New Ally" on the main Hulk set; the enemies are level 20 each. You got 4 and a half days to grind a team that's worthy - DO IT

Agreed. If you noticed my many exhortations about the weakness of my roster, you might be pleased to know how easy it was to get the Hulk cover if you have the right strategy. (Though TBH what I'd ~really~ like is a Shulkie cover.)

lol got a Hulk and a Punisher in quick succession after beating "A New Ally"

Any strats for that final Juggernaut mission? Brutal.

got two Puns from the 3 star tourney, so now I've Pun at 1-2-0, l28. can see him being a mainstay eventually

still rocking through Hulk missions with my now l70 Wolvie, but sheesh, Ragnarok is an awful enemy

- Points per mission have a rubber banding effect depending on your overall placement (ignoring brackets). This means that if your score is lower than the average for the position that you're in, your missions will be worth more compared to others in that same position. IE, if Bracket Alpha's 1st place has 750 points and Bracket Zeta has 500, Zeta's 1st will gain more points from missions to equalize brackets. This will filter down to lower ratings as well, since naturally in that case, 50th would necessarily be lower in Zeta compared to Alpha. This has the effect of allowing brackets to push higher as a group to achieve the further out rewards.

yeah, i HATE boosted Ragnarok

huh, re. brackets, that just makes it even sweeter to end up in a shitty bracket, no? or do you GET more points for beating opponents for higher scores? (supposing we're talking about PvP & not e.g. Hulk missions)

Sorry, Hulk missions

Weird, they just added extra stages to Greenland and Canada.

Amazon too

oh, ok

I'm bummed that I've stopped getting points in the Canada missions, even while I'm watching my ranking still slipping down

xp

it's annoying in that way, but also good in that you're rewarded for sitting around and not playing for a bit. for our health, i mean

LOL I think they screwed up huge on the new mission in the new Greenland mission, "Our Big Hitters". It's supposed to be vs. LV 85 Juggernaut + LV 85 Ragnarok, but instead they're lvl 1 and Lvl 15 ;). Got 1400 pts for it...

..and after two wins, it dropped down to 280pts. Huh. Maybe this this is how it's supposed to work?

ditto & jumped up to top 25 in Hulk tourney overall as a result

dittos

updating. Trying my first hero variant with moonstone; maybe this time i fully level up her red?
Now that i've got wolvie leveled up better and he takes the yellow/red combos, i can grind WAY too long by leaving him up front to soak up damage. i ran my ipad out of juice completely today.

i completely agree btw.
you should level your daken up for real tho.

working on it! this thread convinced me

jfc with this; who has 100 health packs?

i can imagine having that if you did a completely fresh account and NEVER used a health pack while doing all the prologue missions and all the recent tourneys, but jeez, why would you??

Nothing cures an addiction quite like getting wiped out in back to back games!

103 standard tokens.

Trying to get the 3-cover C Storm, but there's an hour left, I'm sick and sleep-deprived and the number of people attacking me is so relentless that I think I'm going to cut my losses and just hope that I don't sink to low.

I'm sick of these high level Ragnarok's laying waste to me in the Hulk levels.

he is a sour bastard. my l84 wolvie though eats him up 95% of the time because if Raggie gets his red attack then I'll be sure to get green the next turn, and my feral claws stack madness, and I can heal his red attack in one turn. the other 5% though he gets some ridic chain and there's no hope: from 3000+ hp to 0 in one turn.

once I get a Raggie up to 5-5 then him + wolvie will be unstoppable

i've been experimenting with thor 85 / wolvie 68 / magnow 42 or wolvie 68 / modhawk 36 modstorm 50 as a good mix. Can't wait till i can get wolverine up to a level where he takes damage on red/yellow before thor. is that an actual thing?

just checked max, i guess not.

not at max thor but my wolvie's ahead of thor on red + yellow (thor at l65?)

but yeah, maybe I shouldn't max thor. in the hulk tourney I could have soloed with wolvie; I've been using thor + the good cap'n also but except for the occasional yellow hit my thor's been silent

With the Hulk tourney buff, Wolverine always hits Red/Yellow before Thor; I keep Thor around for his specials, he's a must for taking down Ragnarok quickly

When Daken is available to use, my main Hulk tourney team is 85 Thor / 73 Wolverine (and rising) / 53 Daken. I swap him out for another tank or assist, like Iron Man 35, 44 Hawkeye Modern, or 76 Cap.

we're playing the same way nhex, but i'm finding that daken's green match buff is kind of a pain when you level up wolvie as high as we have him? like i'd rather save the red for the +100 per hit than +16

I don't really conserve the Red strike tiles - I always match them, but having those extra dmg + wolvie's extra dmg definitely helps over the course of the battle, since (purely guessing here) at least 2 out of 3 turns you won't be able to match Red so they're just sitting there passively. Two Red matches, burn 'em and use Mjolnir's Might. Plus, Daken's has healing ability and is an easy sacrifice play for those sniper shots, since he's not a huge loss if he goes down.

What I do love is that both Daken and Wolvie only take 10 minutes to resurrect! Most characters take closer to an hour. Pop them in a prologue mission and heal all that back, who needs health packs.

lol level 247 Rag on the latest Hulk stage.
