10-pack:

IMHB red (fifth!)
KK
3* Cyclops

still need that last XFW after all this time... have 164 sweet tokens saved up... but the Wolvie in there is the wrong color :(

champed colossus today, well into the "lol why am I champing this one" time. only 7 more 3 stars to champ, save Sentry who I had 166d & sold at the nerf (and will not get back, he's horrible now)(of course I'm gonna champ rags and spidey so the lol's on me)

this round of the pve has been brutal! I beat all the nodes once but the ones with big hood & doom are stupid deadly.

I have a 12/13 XFW that I finally decided to bite the bullet and put ISO into while I wait for more Jean Grey/Iceman covers to pop up

I would strongly consider selling half my roster for OML covers, though

I think I'm just gonna bite the bullet and spend 120CP for that last cover soon (since I'll have to wait another what six months before he comes back into the DPD rotation?) I have over 300 saved up anyway.

300 cp !!!!

I drew a red phoenix last week, 1-2-2 now. she's no OML but it's hilarious when she resurrects.

they should change the game so that you still only have 13 covers to give to a character but you can arrange them however you want

mostly because a 0/13/0 OML would be hilariously broken

Yeah, i came to the thinking that there's no point drawing Legendaries when I have 4*s I still need to build up, because right now I have a handful of Good to OK 4*s (SheThor, XFW, Nick Fury, Starlord) that all need ISO and a crapload of 1/1/2 characters that are kind of useless. Meanwhile we get new 4*s every two weeks, and there's always something better around the corner.. so I tried not to buy a Legendary pack more than once a month.

I see that. I just can't help myself.

though my 4 star covers are starting to add up. my starlord, electra, and X-23 are all getting playable-ish, at least in pve. need 1 or 2 more starlord to cover max him. 2 or 3 for electra, 3 or 4 for X-23. my hulkbuster is 5-0-2, so 5 in red. drew another carnage today, 2-0-4. it adds up.

I have a 5/2/2 Jean Grey and a 0/5/1 Iceman that, while squishy, are downright brutal on offense

Huh! The forums hate Star-lord, but I was going to champion him (he's already at 13 covers, and I've been keeping 4 R&G covers in my queue because the next one is going to give me another SL) until I pulled that IMHB, who's now at 12 and suddenly has become my ISO priority.

oh man I would love that Jean Gray. mine is maybe 4-2-2 ? I should level her.

YOU REALLY SHOULD esp if you've got a level-capped IM40

starlord is not bad! but countdown tiles suck. whichever one I have at 5, red I think, does like 6000 at my crappy level. but it's a countdown tile.

Iceman with 5 blue is a patently unfair character; 6 blue triggers a 4-turn stun on a character, during which another 6 blue drops a nuke on anyone on the opposing team (right now unbuffed mine does over 6K)

IM40/Iceman/Jean ignores black, which seems weird after being in OML land for so long, but makes up for it with AOE nukes on purple and green, a nuke on red, a stun/nuke on blue, and a yellow battery that gives you tons of red and blue and decent amounts of green and purple; esp in PVE it's hilariously easy to rofflestomp your opponent with minimal damage

Dan, I have 3/3/3 Jeanie and 2/4/5 Icecreep. Do you think that's enough to rofflestomp PVE?

I'd think so, esp with IM40 powering them

my strat is:

Recharge
blue stun a character
punch another character
AOE if possible
repeat

I've never used Iceman's green because I don't have it; his purple is nice for getting more blue on the board too fuel Make/Punch but I prioritize Jean because her green puts special tiles on the board for you and her purple removes enemy special tiles, including countdowns

but putting iso into my 3/2/1 Jean Grey means it's not going into someone else... decisions decisions
also when i pull like another Kid Nova or Red hulk I'm just like ehhhhhhh
5/0/1 Ant-Man is kinda fun though

Bah, Jean's purple only coverts countdowns at 4 covers. :\ xp

Nhex, Ant-Man with blue is awesome! He takes some time to set up, though, but he's great against Muscles and anyone who spams (Daken) or steals (Moonstone) special tiles.

Yeah I wish I had his blue... :(

My Ant-Man is 2/1/2, maybe I should try him out

Almost at 6k messages on this goddam thread!

i am horrified thgat we may one day need MPQ thread 2

3 more days til i chmap kamala! then another week until i champ storm! then back to the drawing board, considering champing beast/daken/shulk/quicksilver/capn marvel (for the 183+ rewards, jean/x23/meh hulk/iceman/thing) but maybe i should finally just bite the bullet and pump it all into XFW (300ish K ISO to champ, but then i have a champed 4 star). i've already got... 20 champed 3*s? how goshdarn many do i need? the answer is as many as i can until my 4*s are viable, i guess, which i do not feel they are at alllll... aside from 13c XFW, i've got... devil dino at 8, invis/4dp/elektra at 7, ironhulk/flaptain at 6... it's creeping closer to 4 star time tho!

okay I didn't realize Beast gives you Jean cards, some of my ISO priorities may have just shifted

yeah, at this point the only thing i am looking at for champing is the reward cards... that's why i am even considering rags/daken (x23), beast (jean), storm (thor), quick (iceman) and if i ever get them to 13 covers, sentry (red hulk), mystique (iceman). as well as the other 3 stars i just want to champ because they are badass, once i get to 13 covers: luke cage, cyclops, switch.

i have a feeling i will actually end up champing like 10 more 3*s before this game ends/i die/heat death of universe/i stop playing (listed in descending order of probability)

IMO you should consider championing Mystique regardless; her purple/black combo, esp. when boosted, is insane

Beast is also a lot of fun when he's boosted and his yellow has sometimes saved my ass so it's kind of dumb that I haven't leveled/champed him yet

otoh Jean/Iceman rofflestomping is too fun

my jean and iceman are at 1/0/1 and 0/0/1 respectively, so it'll be a while before i get to enjoy stomping those roffles :(

lol my 5* jean is 2/1/1 tho, thanks legendary tokens?

i'll definitely bump mystique up the list, she is just not-paid-attention-to yet because she isn't 13 cover (altho she has jumped from 9 to 12 in the past couple of weeks, so may enter the conversation sooner than i thought)

but maybe i should finally just bite the bullet and pump it all into XFW (300ish K ISO to champ, but then i have a champed 4 star)

Enh, XFW is my first champed 4* (and until last week my only one), and while he's useful in PVE, he's definitely not world-pwning like Jean, Iceman, or IMHB, and there are plenty of missions where he isn't much of an asset.

Cosigning Mystique -- I liked to use her with Patch. You know, for the rofflelulz.

i've already had to sell off one or two of his covers over the past ~6-9 months, tho, and it'd be nice to be putting those towards evenytually getting more leg tokens. surely it'll take over a year before i can even consider jean/iceman/imhb as useful (maybe HB first, since he's 1/2/3 iirc)

xp last few PVE nodes just for kicks i rocked im40/patch/loki to great effect

(maybe HB first, since he's 1/2/3 iirc)

If you're not sure how he's specced then you are a filthy casual! ;P

iirc = if i'm really cool
which i obviously am
WHOSE THE FIL-CAZH NOW
(i checked he is 123)

checked, my Jean Gray is 4-2-3! I guess that's decent enough to bring up after I've finished champing the rest of these 3 stars.

xforce is very useful because of his black: it's a cheap, quick kill / maim even for big time foes. he's not top tier 4 star anymore, but for speed he's useful even in pvp. nb my only champed 4 stars are xforce and lady thor so if I wanna run 4 star I don't have a lot of choice...yet...

Got an Iso-8 Brotherhood token after event ended. Pulled..
Yellow X-Force Wolverine! Feels like I've been waiting literally years for this cover. Bless you RNGesus

niiiiice

I got a War Machine for finishing top 50. got an Iceman from my last pve token.

oh man! something must be in the water right now. i got:
- legendary for champing kamala: my first 5 star spidey! (purple)
- legendary for the xfw node in ddq: my second 5 star spidey!!! (blue)
- iso-8 brotherhood token: hulkbuster black! (1/3/3)

When the daily pops, I'll get enough command points for another legendary token... which I am DEFINITELY opening ASAP ;)

legendary for the xforce dpd : electra red, which is blah-ish but it puts her at 4-5-2, just 2 covers away.

my daily reward is 25 command points, and I have 14 command points already, so I almost have enough for 2 draws from the 20 cp pile.

Beat the Legendary got... a third Back in Black Spidey! Making him... 0/0/3. Can't complain too much

Are the Civil War Legendary tokens worth it? They're 20 CP.

Basically exactly the same as a legendary token, except you get a 10% shot at 5* cap or 5* tony instead of a 10% shot at (phoenix/surfer/OML) or (phoenix/goblin/BIB spidey)

aka: if i am spending CP, i'm buying the 20 CP token every time (I want to build up my 4*s anyway)

mine are 100cp; at 20 i would def buy

oh wait, wrong currency

he was talknig abt the "civil war legendary" (which are actually 30cp, fuck that noise)

oh shit you're right! my bad
yeah id rather have another OML/Phoenix/BIB anyway

I pulled a black Ghost Rider from the ddq4 token, very helpful against 5* Cap.

last two leg tokens:
Nick Fury purple for my 5/2/5 Nick
Ant-Man yellow for my 5/1/5 Scott

Opened 70 tacos today:

1000 HP
3x 3* Magneto
Quicksilver
Scarlet Witch
I didn't count how many 1500 ISOs, probably 4x
Annnnnd...
1 black IMHB(!) (Makes him 5/5/3!)

And after not pulling a single 2* Bullseye for three weeks -- he was at 142, and I really needed to open up roster spots for several 4* and 5* covers in my queue -- I get 9 of those today. Let me roster Silver Surfer, so now I have all the 5*s except for Cap.
