I have maxed Spidey and IM40; basically, if you can get Recharge to go off with all three countdowns intact, you are about 75% guaranteed a win because you can lock down everyone with Spidey's blue and then nuke them with IM40's red. Then, you only have to worry about getting enough blue to tide you over for the rolling stuns and getting enough yellow to fire off another recharge and reload IM40's red. (Since my IM40 is at 166, I also use X-Force's green to chip away at health and shake up the board before throwing out another recharge.)

Note that when this strategy doesn't work, it goes south super fast.

hey Euler - there's always a rando every week or so that stops playing the game - when that happens i'll kick the, and post here

My 10 pack:
Yellow Kamala
Blue Rags

At least one of those is useful.

hoping i can pull through the carnage event in the top 25, get a blue and red mags and hit his cover max tomorrow
dream big!

Will M: Definitely Captain America. Maybe Doom and X-Force. 3*s are cheap to level up to 120 and 4*s can go to 172 or so cheaply.

aaaaablnnn (abanana), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 09:17 (eight years ago) link

I... took nobody's advice and leveled CMags. But it only cost like 20% of my purple stuff to max him to ~120, so I think I might still do one of these other ones.

Man so purple gems/powers are really borderline useless at the 3* level, eh?

Bouncy Castlevania (Will M.), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 14:35 (eight years ago) link

Steve Rogers Cap is a good choice; his red is great once you get it going

Also there is nothing useless about GSBW's purple, especially if you have maxed out green as well

I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 14:37 (eight years ago) link

that definitely makes sense, i actually got her to 3/5/2 thanks to the daily deadpool, i am considering boosting her up to 120 as well (even if it's jsut to have her as a green battery)

Bouncy Castlevania (Will M.), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 14:53 (eight years ago) link

once you get her last green cover, she's a monster.
purple also okay for spidey if you have two heavy hitters and want to play him defensively.

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:42 (eight years ago) link

I just got that last green GSBW cover and HOLY SHIT

RIP Spidey, you were a great slow play character but I think now I want to just melt faces

I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:47 (eight years ago) link

right? the issue is that you won't be able to continuously play for as long as the shields aren't there, but who cares

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:49 (eight years ago) link

gsbw / old bullseye / new thor = game on imo

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:50 (eight years ago) link

I might choose spidey over old Bullseye for the last-ditch team heal

Actually I wonder how well I could roll with Spidey/GSBW/XForce

I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:53 (eight years ago) link

fairly well i would imagine but the matches might be slow; how levelled is your xforce?

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:54 (eight years ago) link

also, since the team heal doesn't carry from match to match, that's only useful in case you're losing and i daresay nobody's gonna knock you off with gsbw/nuthor/+1 on anything less than a full team at half health unless you're drastically punching above your weight

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:55 (eight years ago) link

187 I think? My team is confined to my iPad so I can't check atm (although if you're in the alliance, you can look for me lol)

I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 16:56 (eight years ago) link

i'm sure you'd be fine.
my yearlong absence basically means i am on the levelling treadmill right now to get a team of 10 3-star 153/166 guys together; i am obsessively spreadsheeting this nonsense with a malleable gameplan. they were wise to increase the rate of sugar water drip; this is almost exactly the least amount of daily progress i require to feel like i'm DOING SOMETHING which i am not, but hey

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 17:00 (eight years ago) link

I think my other option would be GSBW/Steve Rogers/Loki to avoid the green collision between GSBW and fat Thor, retain a slowdown ability (Steve blue), get a single target nuke (Steve red) and a team nuke (GSBW green), a nuisance color drain (Loki green), the ability to steal opposing protect/strike tiles (Loki black), and the option for either a green battery (GSBW purple) or a board shake (Loki purple).

I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 17:01 (eight years ago) link

i still haven't played with cap yet but i see the appeal. as i slowly level steve rogers, i would like to.

btw, is this the most popular thread of all time for ILG? 4200 posts?

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 17:02 (eight years ago) link

For when we can't play MPQ, we post about MPQ. (Jeezis though! Didn't think we had that many posts in here.)

Falconetti Pot (Leee), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 17:04 (eight years ago) link

I didn't "get" Steve Rogers until I got into the low 100s and his red went from "eh" to "holy shit" as long as you can protect that countdown (ie, fuck you, Falcon)

I Am Curious (Dolezal) (DJP), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 17:06 (eight years ago) link

Yeah, Steve Rogers' red ability is his reason for existing

Nhex, Wednesday, 17 June 2015 21:36 (eight years ago) link

Steve Rogers 0/1/5 - Sadface

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 21:37 (eight years ago) link

mine's 1-5-3, i'm tempted, but it is hard to spend another 20k upgrading another 3-star red/yellow/blue to 110-120ish zone so soon

then again it's not like my iso-8 (I REMEMBERED THE NAME) is appreciating in value... i kinda just wanna see if i will get more good covers so i can get someone to 166?

Bouncy Castlevania (Will M.), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 21:43 (eight years ago) link

5 in blue and/or red is useful in PVEs with goons, though, and if you're facing Turn To Smoke ninjas, you can use the blue to stun before you kill them to avoid creating the attack tiles.

Falconetti Pot (Leee), Wednesday, 17 June 2015 22:56 (eight years ago) link

Lately I've been using X-Force Wolvie + CMags + Loki. It turns out that having 7 moves that shake the board around is really good. Plus they are in every color and a passive.

Yep. I’ve bee using Bullseye (Dark Avengers), Magneto (Classic), and Loki. I have matches that are finished in a few turns.

10-pack results:

Green Patch
Purple Iron Fist

Three days of the taco vault and I'm 6 out of 6 for health packs.

aaaaablnnn (abanana), Tuesday, 30 June 2015 18:08 (eight years ago) link

lol, me too. that was a mean spirited tweak they made there.

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 30 June 2015 18:10 (eight years ago) link

When you do the taco vault thing, it flips through all the logos of the things you could win. Is there a connection between what you click and what you get? Or is it just a cool visual thing.

polyphonic, Tuesday, 30 June 2015 22:55 (eight years ago) link

it's them trying to get you to buy a bunch of hp so that there's less junk in the prize machine... the more you buy the better your chances! oh boy oh boy

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 30 June 2015 23:03 (eight years ago) link

yep, definitely a shameless move

Checked the Daily Rewards schedule, I'm in line to get my first Elektra in about 6 months! \o/

kinda wish blake would start posting to this thread as "blake anderson mpq addict" but only exclusively to this thread, not to the rest of ilx and nobody here asks him about anything but why he's not earning more points for the alliance

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Monday, 6 July 2015 03:51 (eight years ago) link

he probably has his own Workaholics-set MPQ alliance

so uh, the third level of this antman run with four waves of deadpools...

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Thursday, 9 July 2015 20:46 (eight years ago) link

healing and stunning are essential. had to take my Spidey and OBW all the way for those missions

Nhex, Thursday, 9 July 2015 23:46 (eight years ago) link

I haven't tried it yet, but what about Lazy Daken/Patch/Mystique?

:wq (Leee), Friday, 10 July 2015 00:23 (eight years ago) link

Oh duh you have to use Ant-Man.

My standard survival mode team of Cap, Blade, Falc works fine.

aaaaablnnn (abanana), Friday, 10 July 2015 05:02 (eight years ago) link

epitome of MPQ first world problems lately
-rewards for pretty much the entire last month of dungeons have been useless to me due to old cards/maxed colors
-can roll easily through all the Enemy of the State missions with my buffed Human Torch and Spidey. it's just really really boring.
-standard token stockpile: 93
-health pack stockpile: 25
-just picked up a 4* Green X-Force Wolvie from Taco tokens... can't use it, hate having to sell it off

Nhex, Monday, 13 July 2015 01:45 (eight years ago) link

can't beat this final antman level

like a giraffe of nah (forksclovetofu), Monday, 13 July 2015 02:50 (eight years ago) link

This week I got two 4* covers from progression rewards in PVP. It seems easiest around 12 hours before the ending time, when the points for winning matches are high and few people are counterattacking.

Another strategy I've tried is joining PVP nodes in the last hour. They get a new bracket every 400 players, so there's a chance at getting in a bracket with few other players. Getting 1st place is still impossible but you can get 3* covers and HP out of it.

got 2000 in shield sim for the first time, nice prizes this time; needed the blue mag, now mine's 4-5-4 166, want 3-5-5 of course; and blue Prof X at 2000
plus vision at 900 (my first) and green loki a little higher (which I didn't need).

have my cyclops at 5-4-4 162 now, he smokes

droit au butt (Euler), Monday, 13 July 2015 14:19 (eight years ago) link

Prof X is a reward? Damn, I should have done SHIELD sim this month. Ah well, there's a few more days.

Nhex, Monday, 13 July 2015 14:34 (eight years ago) link

7 days! I just started yesterday I think, you can do it fast if you have a solid 3 star roster. I only had three retals (in which I lost, but lost hardly any points)
