Loki rewards, gimme a break

Yeah fuck that but otoh I wanna use my 5/4/3 Pun and I want the black hulk cover from season 1 progression
― Euler, Thursday, 1 May 2014 01:20 (ten years ago) link
Just got that btw :d
― Nhex, Thursday, 1 May 2014 01:42 (ten years ago) link
I'm 300 points away from black Hulk, I'm surprised at how reachable and how valuable these rewards are.

yes, and the proliferation of progression results right now gives the game new "one more turn" urgency
my buffed Pun is SO much fun to play; DJP otm on 3-5-5 l85 Magnow + my five blue cover l79 Spidey + my mondo buffed 5-4-3 Pun (~l190 buffed!) in the Pun tourney. yeah I'll merely rack up Loki covers but it's so damn fun

You're also doing a service to the alliance, don't forget.

i got to 615 pts on day one in that tourney, believe i'm knocked back down to 400 by now but damn, it's compulsively playable.

For example, if you run say The Hood + LT, while you can't expect to defend against Magneto with any reliability, most high end player will skip The Hood because he's pretty much the strongest defensive character in the game and it's a greater risk to fight The Hood over say, Black Panther.
orly?

I can see the argument but, given Falcon's powers, I can't see how anyone could be considered better than him once levelled. His one active ability effectively makes your team invulnerable!
― chillin' on an "awesome pretzel" hoagie (DJP), Thursday, 1 May 2014 18:30 (ten years ago) link
(and then his main passive makes you both more invulnerable and hit harder)

Also his animations are long. Also it slowed my tablet to a crawl once his stuff got on board.

BLACK HULK DOWN
Is that really a Heroic 10 pack at the 5000 point reward? I hadn't noticed, because that would have been ridiculous.
― Berk errs Gibbs/Ox (aldo), Thursday, 1 May 2014 19:40 (ten years ago) link
YES.
― Call the Doctorb, the B is for Brownstein (Leee), Thursday, 1 May 2014 19:47 (ten years ago) link
Of course they're probably all Dakens and purple MHawks.
Or, as I call them, 2500 iso.

whoa, didn't even notice that reward. i'm at 3658 points, might as well push it

thank you for alerting me to that reward, I will be much more diligent in playing season-related events (been screwing around mostly in the simulator when not passed out asleep or working)
― chillin' on an "awesome pretzel" hoagie (DJP), Thursday, 1 May 2014 20:14 (ten years ago) link
if you don't take down a leveled hood first, he's really the worst.
but if you have a fast team, going against hood is way more manageable than any number of other combos...

i'm trying to gain ~100 points in the SHIELD simulator tourney per day, pacing myself up - currently 1028pts. besides, The Simulator seems difficult already to stay caught up - I've cleared all the levels for at least one reward, have to play pretty often to stay Top 50 in my brackets. Plus, the Pun tourney of course
― Nhex, Thursday, 1 May 2014 20:19 (ten years ago) link
"For example, if you run say The Hood + LT, while you can't expect to defend against Magneto with any reliability, most high end player will skip The Hood because he's pretty much the strongest defensive character in the game and it's a greater risk to fight The Hood over say, Black Panther."
I agree with this. Abilities can do a lot more damage than matches, and The Hood with 5 blue can prevent you from using any good ones until he's dead.
"(Falcon's) one active ability effectively makes your team invulnerable!"
It puts out protect tiles adding up to 714. The better 3* abilities do much more damage than that. e.g. Patch's red can do over 10000 damage.

I looked up the strongest attacks in the game.
Venom black: instant killPatch red: 13824Hulk red: 11432GS Black Widow green: 10008 (spread across team) + tile/match damageBlack Panther black: 9486 (spread) Moonstone red: potentially 8992 but it will never happenCMags purple: 8268 + match damageDaredevil red: 7712Lazy Thor green: 7710 (spread)Ares green: 6210CStorm blue: 5010 (spread)

I got the 10-pack progression reward -- it had 5 3* covers! including my 13th Lazy Thor cover, although I still want to get another yellow.

Maxed out Loki as far as I could for the rest of this tourney. Not sure if that would be worth it in the long run, but it was only 9k iso.

pulled like 4 *** from the 10 pack but the only one i could use was a black HT.

4 open roster spots, 200 hp.
i hesitate to call playing this "eventful" under any circumstances, but an "eventful" week: extra punisher card and my first 100+ level character, level max to cover capability for torch and classic mags, final covers for bagman and ares means that i know have every two and one star character cover maxed... no more excitement from silver covers again. On the other hand, with the exception of green hulk and purple grey widow, i still need every three and four star cover available. thus beginneth the superlong endgame. I've said this a dozen times but what's the point in making 1 and 2 star characters if every new character released from now on is three stars?
From here, I have to finish maxing out ares and then back to leveling up patch, grey widow / loki / ragnarok / i40 in line after, barring any new three star cover pickups. Hoping to get that black hulk cover shortly and will be fighting for the heroic 10pack over the next two weeks.

i think the only reason for 1 and 2* characters at this point is so new players have more content to get through before they start hitting the 3*s
i wouldn't wait on the Season 1 points, forks - you'll get points for the Loki tourney (and whatever character tourneys we get after) much more quickly than ranking up the SHIELD training - just burn up a few hundred pts. at least

Went from 43 to 91 overnight in Loki (was the last Ares I needed so maybe no biggie). That seems a bit of a drop for 4 hours.
Loki top 50 prize before a Loki tournament, with Doom top 50 leading into a Doom tourney... would indicate Falcon is up next?

ILXors I need your help!
I have a 5/5/2 Iron Man 40 at "max" level (128). I recently received a 3rd recharge card, which would allow me to cover max/level max him to 141. I had planned on keeping him at 128, as a very capable killer with red/blue recharge. However I am starting to waver... more damage from his big blasts, plus I am rolling green guys a lot more these days (my Pun and Hulk are pretty high up there now, it's been a while since I've rolled my old, boring OBW/MagNow/IM40 for maximum control & healing).
Should I pump that last cover into him? Or is the extra 2 yellow AP a bummer and not worth it for the 2-6 green AP it generates? Given how cheap Pun's green skill is, I am thinking I'll go for it (and cover max my first ***)... WHAT SAY U
― Neckbread (Will M.), Monday, 5 May 2014 17:15 (ten years ago) link
