Maybe I'll max out all my 1 stars for this pvp.
― Jeff, Monday, 24 March 2014 12:16 (ten years ago) link
pssssht, no idea how you amass that much. maxing out your one stars is something of a waste.i just pulled 10k iso running through both of the latest simulator events. on a whim, invested heavily in xforce wolvie and doc doom and got both up to around L50

Boosted Dr. Doom is always a fun time, so worth it
― Nhex, Monday, 24 March 2014 12:26 (ten years ago) link
yeah, once you get the four black matches, the boost just carves through teams
― We hugged with no names exchanged (forksclovetofu), Monday, 24 March 2014 12:27 (ten years ago) link
I'd max the one stars if the tourney rewards were better. But I could care less for hood.
― Jeff, Monday, 24 March 2014 12:36 (ten years ago) link
I got seven standards and got a classic Magneto (!), Moonstar, and Bag man (!!)

bagman is the best, max him immediately
― Euler, Monday, 24 March 2014 14:03 (ten years ago) link
xforce is terrible, not worth any iso.
really want that blue hood.
― eric banana (s.clover), Monday, 24 March 2014 14:14 (ten years ago) link
lol, you guys and bagman

nah he sucks, like even buffed in the simulator I've been leaving him to the end, because oooh he'll cast a heal that takes 7 turns to trigger, or shoot out a bunch of weak strike tiles
whereas buffed patch is worrisome
― Euler, Monday, 24 March 2014 15:59 (ten years ago) link
The good thing about patch as an opponent is his green is as good as if you have patch, if yr careful. You need one guy able to take the initial hit, but then if you've been playing right, you can use the strike tiles he gives you to mop up quick.
― eric banana (s.clover), Monday, 24 March 2014 16:11 (ten years ago) link
Same here, I've been having crazy see-saw matches against CPU Patch. If you can take out his green Strike tiles quick you can ride your own pink tiles to victory
― Nhex, Monday, 24 March 2014 16:15 (ten years ago) link
yeah i just won a sim battle against patch using his strike but I took a lot of damage getting to that point
having maxed to current level cap all my useful 3 stars, I'm working on ares now, because this tourney has another week to go & he'll be buffed throughout. mine's at 4-4-5 so I can go to 85 & rock socks off with in particularĀ green and yellow
― Euler, Monday, 24 March 2014 16:34 (ten years ago) link
simulation 09, 0 man. new contender for most annoying stage. lazy thor and two green-generating minions.
― qwop zapatos (abanana), Monday, 24 March 2014 18:24 (ten years ago) link
most of the current boards are a painand the one star is a serious beating! generally losing at least one character, often all. Am i doing something wrong here?
― We hugged with no names exchanged (forksclovetofu), Monday, 24 March 2014 18:27 (ten years ago) link
I left in a tank team for the 1 star event.
― Leeee with three E's with 3 spelled out (Leee), Monday, 24 March 2014 18:34 (ten years ago) link
I've won that sim 9 board a few times with spidey stun lock on lazy thor. he's been getting off one green blast but I can take that b/c he's not THAT buffed
― Euler, Monday, 24 March 2014 18:59 (ten years ago) link
i'm alternating between ogbw/bullseye/daken and doom/bullseye/ogbw and doom/bullseye/daken on those with varying results
― We hugged with no names exchanged (forksclovetofu), Monday, 24 March 2014 19:04 (ten years ago) link
doom/area/spidey for me
― Euler, Monday, 24 March 2014 19:05 (ten years ago) link
Don't see the point in doing 1* tourney unless you have three fully maxed characters, every match I get is like that. Did the same as Lee.
Yeah you gotta kill Lazy Thor first, no doubt. I use Doom mostly because his HP is so jacked up w/Spidey and Wolvie
― Nhex, Monday, 24 March 2014 22:35 (ten years ago) link
My one stars aren't fully maxed but I'm still winning most of the time. And I'm not using any of those characters on the Dr. Doom stuff anyway.

How come the computer always matches four when they could match five on a corner
Like, thanks, I appreciate it, but it feels cheap.
― polyphonic, Monday, 24 March 2014 23:12 (ten years ago) link
otoh match 4s sometimes generate more ap/better cascades.
but mainly i think its just to keep the difficulty down.
― eric banana (s.clover), Monday, 24 March 2014 23:57 (ten years ago) link
yeah, if the AI was smart enough to catch Match-5s it would be too much w/the buffed up chars, they can loop well enough
― Nhex, Tuesday, 25 March 2014 03:55 (ten years ago) link
So here's the one true strategy for one star tourneys. (it is sloow though). mbw/storm/I35. Fight only in swamp (lower left). Race to 5 red, fire off storm's red. feed that into a thorned rose. get into a stun/green/steal loop. if you're starved on red and green, early yellows get off I35's protect tiles, which keep you in play. take out storm first, then mbw, then their tank (typically i35/venom/juggs). heal up in the prologue if necessary. repeat.
― eric banana (s.clover), Tuesday, 25 March 2014 05:41 (ten years ago) link
you've given me the confidence to use my 30-ish MBW and MStorm - it's a winning formula even against the maxed out teams
lol @ will's pic. who will be the first... to drop a deuce
― Nhex, Tuesday, 25 March 2014 13:04 (ten years ago) link
just got smothered using that strat, but tbf juggsy ate up enough green before I got my first storm red that they already had like 20 in every color before I had a chance to run the strat. hate juggsy so much
― Euler, Tuesday, 25 March 2014 17:11 (ten years ago) link
Tried the Patch + 2 Goons Hard Simulator mission -- I guess the goons were supply him with loads of green AP because he fired that ability in like two turns.

euler: right, when yr vs. juggs you gotta deny red/green above all else, and only go for your own stuff second. but sometimes there's just no hope...
― eric banana (s.clover), Tuesday, 25 March 2014 20:56 (ten years ago) link
I'm using vastly underpowered MBW/Storm/IM35 in the one star tourney and am basically stomping on everyone I play; can't imagine the steamroll wrong i would do if they were level-capped
― Wahaca Flocka Flame (DJP), Tuesday, 25 March 2014 22:22 (ten years ago) link
Also currently in the top 10 for both easy and heroic simulator, thank you based Doom
― Wahaca Flocka Flame (DJP), Tuesday, 25 March 2014 22:23 (ten years ago) link
off, lvl 150 fat Thor + green generating goons = death in 6 turns or so
― Nhex, Tuesday, 25 March 2014 22:25 (ten years ago) link
yeah I survive that battle only b/c of spidey, putting him on stun lock as often as I can & hoping that the AI drops green countdowns to drain their green below 14
― Euler, Tuesday, 25 March 2014 22:30 (ten years ago) link
putting THOR on stun lock I mean
cmags has def replaced spidey as my favorite character to play. can't wait until i get a few more purple for him.
― eric banana (s.clover), Wednesday, 26 March 2014 01:06 (ten years ago) link
damn sclover your one star strat is aces
― Euler, Wednesday, 26 March 2014 01:49 (ten years ago) link
MStorm/MBW/Juggs may stop more people from attacking you. It also costs less ISO to max out. Downside is no yellow abilities.
― qwop zapatos (abanana), Wednesday, 26 March 2014 02:24 (ten years ago) link
whoa there are alliance prizes for the one star tourney! we are ranked in the 110s; top 100 would be better. I have 250ish points
― Euler, Wednesday, 26 March 2014 02:42 (ten years ago) link
at #1 with 504 points. a top 10 finish will make me happy. once nice thing about 1* is because the grind is slow and most teams are pretty equal, competition isn't that rough if you put in the time. 26th in the simulator overall, so i guess i'll get my stupid cap covers too unless i fall off.
― eric banana (s.clover), Wednesday, 26 March 2014 03:04 (ten years ago) link
HAHAHA OMG. Hard mode DD/Wolverine/IM40 against my OBW/Lil Thor/MF Doom. Took down Wolverine and Iron Man with a lot of help from Imagine Dragons, but the AI had a surfeit of AP and laid a dozen traps. With DD (about 2000 health left) as the last remaining enemy, I fired off Thor's yellow ability and ooh look at all these green matches available, triggers a cascade that trips TWO of his crotch kicks (killing Thor and Doom) AND his stun trap -- holy smokes, OBW is stunned for SEVEN TURNS? But thank god some of my red attack tiles survived, so while OBW was taking a nap, my lil demons took down DD.
― Leeee with three E's with 3 spelled out (Leee), Wednesday, 26 March 2014 04:07 (ten years ago) link
So while I wait for my principals to recover:

Dropped to 27 in the overall Simulator; it's getting really tedious to catch up. I'll be working when the tourney ends tomorrow so I don't anticipate as good a finish for this round for me

Bleh, ended up Top 75 in both Simulator events.
