The fact that I pretty easily got up to the top 15(?) last night in the PVP after probably < 2 hours of playing before eventually sliding down means I lucked out with my bracket, or my Thor/OBW + 1 squad is rounding out beautifully, or all the real players have lost interest in this game.

I've run into a million lvl 100+ Patches, Punishers, Spideys, Black Widows etc. so believe it, they're out there

Looking for opponent in SHIELD Versus: Daken/Wolverine/OBW. SKIP!
― eeeLastica (Leee), Sunday, 9 February 2014 05:59 (ten years ago) link
Did some back-of-the-envelope math and figured that with my current roster composition, the Heroic tokens would result in a cover for a character I already had about 75% of the time... and the first pull was an IM40, which is nice, but now I have two new 3* covers and no open roster spots. Oops.

ok thought of a new combo -- obw/doom/patches. i think this could be pretty brutal.
― eric banana (s.clover), Sunday, 9 February 2014 20:20 (ten years ago) link
OBW/Doom sounds good because he can use her Espionage to grab more black tiles fast, but you're kinda giving up his Blue ability that converts Blue > Black, if you want to keep OBW fed for healing. Patch is good to pick up the remaining Red/Green.

I wonder how scary a high-level Daredevil is. Even at low levels, I'm terrified of those traps
― Nhex, Monday, 10 February 2014 00:18 (ten years ago) link
OBW/Patch/Bullseye works pretty well for me. Bullseye's black ability is so powerful with strike tiles on the board that it usually ends the match. Shame it costs so much.

How many covers do you wait to accumulate for a single 3* character before yall start pumping ISO into a them?
― eeeLastica (Leee), Monday, 10 February 2014 17:53 (ten years ago) link
if you really have the patience, you might as well wait until they're capable of hitting 85, since until that point you'll have better 2* guys to use. but i never do, so i waste a lot of iso on these things like having a lvl 45 hulk or 70 punisher. these boosted tourneys are always a good reason to level them up
― Nhex, Monday, 10 February 2014 17:56 (ten years ago) link
thought this was interesting:http://thinkgaming.com/app-sales-data/4302/marvel-puzzle-quest-dark-reign/so they're making 12k a day in the us alone

i'm skeptical - unless there's an article out there where they actually admitted their revenue numbers, this looks like pure projection
― Nhex, Monday, 10 February 2014 20:53 (ten years ago) link
for all i know they could be making even more, but this stuff is generally kept secret until they're making insanobucks
― Nhex, Monday, 10 February 2014 20:54 (ten years ago) link
yeah, you're probably right
― PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Monday, 10 February 2014 21:22 (ten years ago) link
New tourney, new card. Psylocke! Looks like a combo of OBW and Punisher.
― Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:50 (ten years ago) link
That's too bad, Punisher looks kind of like a deformed Nosferatu in the in-game art, at least she'll have OBW's silly mask on.

is this the 80s/90s psylocke or is there an updated version of her i am unfamiliar with? feels like they are pulling marvel characxters out of a hat...
― I've Seen rRootage (Will M.), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:53 (ten years ago) link
she hasn't really changed since the '90s

that's the asian psylocke
― PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:56 (ten years ago) link
kind of hilarious that they pulled in Psylocke and not Emma Frost
― Fight the Powers that Be with this Powerful Les Paul! (DJP), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 17:57 (ten years ago) link
Didn't realize there was a non-Asian Psylocke? I mean, aside from the Betsy Braddock origin stuff?

Also, ISO tax averted! ^_^
As a summary of what this will look like with R48: - The Victory Bonus begins at +30 Iso for a win - The bonus lowers by 10 Iso per Skip - The bonus disappears at 0, then caps out at -10 Iso per skip after additional skips - The bonus returns to +30 Iso after the match is completed, win or lose - The Victory Bonus is only gained if the Agent is successful in their matchup

You don't remember or know about the Psylocke/Revanche nonsense? oh man

um, holy shit the rewards for the daken/xforcewolverine/thug mission, about seven in, is 3 separate 5k isosthis is a cornucopia here right now
― PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:16 (ten years ago) link
Wonder if it'll be patched out...
― eeeLectrelane (Leee), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:17 (ten years ago) link
lol, up to 33k iso. I've enjoyed not spending it.
― Jeff, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:28 (ten years ago) link
hahaha i totally forgot about Revanche!
ugh i was gonna wait until later to grind that simulator mission but FINE, i'll do it now.
― Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:48 (ten years ago) link
probably worth it. i just put in about forty minutes and got my spidey up to level 62 from 53
― PSY talks The Nut Job (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 11 February 2014 18:49 (ten years ago) link
holy shit @ 5000k iso-8. I only got it once, but still: maxed my captain!

is this normal or hard Simulator?

awww not repeatable :(
actually it is, but the reward only drops once. whatevs, 5000 iso, can't complain
― Nhex, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:36 (ten years ago) link
how the hell do you move up rankings if you can't repeat missions and both missions give the same points for every person?
― mh, Tuesday, 11 February 2014 19:36 (ten years ago) link
the missions in the subevents are repeatable, but on in the "main" event

ah

just got my rear handed to me by obw/mod storm/hood. that's a horrifying combo if you don't shut it down fast.
― eric banana (s.clover), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 04:00 (ten years ago) link
surprised how much Modern Storm has been showing up in high level combos, but her loop is fast i suppose
― Nhex, Wednesday, 12 February 2014 04:41 (ten years ago) link
Well, that 5000 ISO mission is out of my reach.
― eeeLectrelane (Leee), Wednesday, 12 February 2014 05:40 (ten years ago) link
