i'll kick open two slots tonight, will post here when i do so

I championed Iceman -- my third 4* champ and by far the best. He's great with Old Man Logan. Now I'm maxing out Beast because I've got 5 of his covers waiting to expire. Beast turned out to be great in survival nodes, who knew?

Cyke 4/2/2 vs. HB was hard but I managed to eke out a win using AP boosts.

fell asleep and forgot about the roster. i'll try again tomorrow, figured it's probably best to open the slots at a reasonable time for people

I'm leveling Blade so I can champion him; next will be either Deadpool or Mystique (aka the other two cards I have in my queue); just champed SWitch.

I may be ready to start leveling some of my 4s, especially Jean (5/2/1) and Iceman (0/4/1). Also I REALLY wish I'd stop pulling purple jean covers, or that there was a way to turn a cover into a different color.

DDQ Falcon and drew one this morning, guess he's my next Champion. Only 115k points to go

2 slots open, join now if you want

You can boot me. Screwed up changing FB accounts and deleted my save, seems like the perfect time to run away from this game.

O.O

what the fuck 110000 hp

good god

what the hell

they keep the game going

is *joy division* one of us, or a rando?

I assume that's a sandboxed account with some poked in HP, but with all the whales, who knows. I got like 28 CP during the sale from alliance members buying $100 packs.

The April Fool's joke/reality is Howard the Duck.

A guy on the forum posted that, and he already had maxed out Phoenix's green.

so why not sell em

probably needs the iso to champion

anymore alliance spots left? i'm playing this again (and had to start from the beginning - it lost my old account)

i'll give some a few more days; will post back here when a spot is free

though milo just said to drop him, i forget which username he was - was it mvsr990?

champed she hulk today, used the cover I'd saved, with < 14 hours left. pulled a 4 star jean gray!

had 20 cps, drew, got a black electra. eh. but 4-4-1 now.

my star lord is getting pretty good (like 4-4-3? something like that). he's buffed in the current pvp & not bad at all. purple + yellow is a nice color combo.

closing in on the 10 pack in season, I didn't play much pvp this season, kinda burned out in that dumb pve, but I'm getting back into the groove

new pvp mmr is brutal for me, though: lots of maxed 4 stars and decent 5 stars already at 100pts. well, I can beat those, but I don't see myself hitting 800+ any time soon. it's ok, current goal is to champ the dumb 3 stars I didn't champ before. next: cap marvel + beast.

also I've been tearing through the shield sim in the last days as usual, with my l345 1-3-2 Silver Surfer; he slices and dices! a 4 in a row blue with a critical tile does 3000+ dam. his red costs 7, does 2700+ dam, and charges 2 tiles, which adds to the damage (or goes with lady thor who despite champing I rarely use, gotta change that).

Hit 2K in the Simulator, got my first Gwen. Incidentally, I'm going to be hitting back on all the retaliations I'm going to get in the next few days, just to farm ISO.

10-pack:
IF
Vision
Loki
Elektra

Also finished championing my Lil Daken.

10 pack: kingpin yellow, at 2-0-5. a little frustrating because that ups the likelihood of a wasted cover. But I like the prospect of him being playable. He annoys me as an opponent.

New alliance just tipped me onto a new way of squeezing out a little more ISO from unwanted/unneeded covers. If you have two covers of the same color, start a new character from scratch and then level them up to level 49 -- you'll earn 466 extra ISO than just selling the covers off individually.

2000 (from selling) - 500 * 2 (from covers) - 534 (from leveling)

And if you have three covers of the same color, do the same thing, but level up to 62 to earn an extra 1466.

NOPE

WAHT? D:

add me nhexxxxx plz

tips for accumulating hero points for more roster spots? do you guys basically end up rostering every cover you get, or are you choosey?

depends on how far you are. never spend hp on anything else and you can more or less keep up. i'm at the point where i have almost every 3* and a good chunk of the 4* and 5*, and just enough 1/2* to keep me in the DDQ/a rotating spot for the PVE required 2*. actually had to sell one of my 2s yesterday to make room for a 4* (carnage, not v good but i don't throw 4s away as a rule in case they get usable... i'm still on the 3/4 bubble).

Current count for me per rarity (parenth = i don't have):

5*: 3 (2) (the new ones missing... goblin and black spiderman)
4*: 25 (5) (mostly newish ones missing... gwen, pun, fuck-a-duck, nova, quake)
3*: 39 (1) (fucking bullseye)
2*: 4 (10) (my three 94+ are cmags, obw, thor, and i also have one-cover storm for pve)
1*: 1 (7) (my boy jugs is all i need)

anyone cover-maxed a hero card yet?

what's a hero card?

champion, sorry

like taking a 2* to level 144, 3* to 266, etc

oh, you mean champ'd a 3 star to 266 or whatever? I'm not even close to that! I think my black panther is at 175 or 176 now, and that's my highest.

the closest i am is my OBW, who is at like... 127? I think? less than 20 more cards and she's maximum maximumed. Then I have to start sellnig her covers again which will be weird!

are the rewards worth it for champing 2 stars if you already have a working 3/4/5 star roster? I throw away a lot of 2 star covers, but I only have four 2 stars left: OBW, Ares, 2 star wolvie (for nostalgia) and 2 star storm.

I draw A LOT of Ms Marvel it seems

my problem is that i have no free spots but i have the following covers i need to recruit: 3x captain marvel, 1x ares, 1x doc octopus, 1x sam wilson, 1x howard the duck, 1x bullseye, 2x steve rodgers, and 1x wolverine. even when i get to 400 hero points (i'm at 275) that'll only give me 3 slots and i need 8. should i just spent a few bucks or are some of these totally worthless and not worth rostering? :/

Someone ran the math and you get back all of the ISO you spend on 2* and 3* champions plus extra hero points, tokens, and legendary points, so my strategy has been "champion everyone, no exceptions"

how does that work? once you max out a character you get more rewards?

yeah I'm even champing dumb ones like doc oc now but 2 stars? I guess it's only 5k iso, one deadpool daily basically.

oh good and i just opened up a human torch so that's another cover i don't have space for :p

people love Captain Marvel, I just think she's okay

Ares, Sam Wilson and Steve Rogers are all mandatory IMO (depending on where you are in the game; Ares is the best green/red/yellow 2*, Sam makes everyone who has special tiles that much better and Steve is a damage/stun machine, especially when paired with IM40 to accelerate initiating his powers)

which Wolverine? (3* is best IMO, then 4*, then 2*)

Doc Ock is situationally awesome; he can devastate a team that relies on special tiles rather than countdowns

no idea about Howard beyond IMO new characters should always be rostered because they tend to be overpowered compared to older characters

Which Bullseye? (2* is kind of nothing, 3* can be a monster on enemy waves)

Human Torch rules, esp 3*

lol so basically i need to roster all of them :p

the wolverine is 2*, bullseye is 2* too

I'd roster them in this order:

Howard
Sam Wilson (I assume 3*) (esp if it's yellow/blue)
Steve Rogers
Human Torch
Ares
Doc Ock
Wolverine (actually a decent character but kind of unnecessary when compared to Ares)
Bullseye

Someone ran the math and you get back all of the ISO you spend on 2* and 3* champions plus extra hero points, tokens, and legendary points, so my strategy has been "champion everyone, no exceptions"

That's if your character is already at their native max -- i.e. if you're starting from scratch, you'd lose ISO building them up.

Anyway, I've fully champed 5 2*s (OBW, Thor, Mags, Storm, Daken), and Hawkeye is next at 140. Highest 3* is GSBW (182).

down to my last six *** to cover max: one cover for quicksilver, beast and colossus; two for blade; five for doc ock and TWELVE for vision.

so how am i gonna get in the ilx alliance guysz

FWIW I like Vision, I've got mine at 173 I believe. xp

I've been been talked out of championing all my 3*s, on the reasoning that spending 120K ISO just to get a legendary token and the ensuing prizes is better invested in your 4*s.

I am currently leveling 3* Cyclops (lvl 142) so I can champion him; once that's done, I'm going to start leveling 4* Jean (5/2/1 lvl 131) and Iceman (0/4/1 lvl 74), then Nick Fury (4/2/2 lvl 131) and Elektra (4/2/3 lvl 127). Also looking at 4* Sam Wilson (2/1/1 lvl 82), 4* Deadpool (1/1/2 lvl 78), Thing (4/0/1 lvl 74), Hulkbuster (2/1/1 lvl 70), Prof X (1/1/2 lvl 70) and Kingpin (1/1/2 lvl 70)

might as well just level that hulkbuster/prof x/kingpin now, what'll that cost like 12 iso?

I've been resisting spending ISO on 4s until they are at a point where I could see myself starting to use them

I might use Prof X at 1/1/2 though

I'm spending ISO to max out my fours right now because I have so few of them that it isn't a big expense. I just championed Luke Cage and Cyclops and that obviously got pretty pricey at the end. It feels so nice to level up for like 100 iso instead of 2500 iso.
