My kingdom for a black C4rol card
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 18 April 2017 15:09 (seven years ago) link
I've played this daily for the last month (did that VIP thing to try to catch up a little) and you guys are still an echelon above my pay grade
It's being nicer about giving me cards for my few champed characters although I don't have enough good ones to get that enemy-bashing synergy really rolling. Currently using weak ol' Magneto to get a match of over 5 blues, getting Hawkeye to drop a bunch of those quick shot countdown tiles, and throwing the blues to Storm

That combo is basically a DDQ steamroll; you can get all of the 2*/3* nodes relatively easily with that team (don't forget to throw in Hawkeye's red from time to time)
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 18 April 2017 15:35 (seven years ago) link
Yeah, even with Storm downed, I had one game where Hawkeye's shots and Magneto's steel hammer all dropped on the same turn and it was delightful

y'all
Wasp and 3Blade are boosted in the Prodigal Sun PVE
If you have usable versions of these two, you HAVE to run them together, it is hilarious
At one point, I had 12 strike tiles on the board that were all doing over 1K damage. Then I put out Blade's purple attack tiles. The match was over 2 turns later.
With enough red on the board, you can easily get your match damage up to 11K.
Oh, Peggy is boosted too; each hit of her blue when it resolves lands for 10K

Made curious about the 2011 Warren Ellis Moon Knight series from the card. "Mr. Knight" is a trip. Good stuff, Marvel cross-media promotion actually working for once!

just opened my ten pack - did pretty amazing imo: 4* jean gray, 3* iron fist, medusa, 3* steve rogers, 4* cpt marvel, 3* blade, and 4* venom
― Mordy, Monday, 24 April 2017 03:53 (seven years ago) link
Sorry about that Venom, unless he got a buff.

four 4*s is damn good
gotta catch 'em all even magikarp
― Mordy, Monday, 24 April 2017 22:32 (seven years ago) link
I've come to the conclusion that a lot of the people who are complaining about vaulting preventing them from building competitive rosters aren't in 4* land and aren't playing around with some of the new characters, because there are some ferocious, devastating combos out there among the following:
WaspMedusaBl4de4LukeCoulsonCpt M4rvel
Is any one of them a self-powering steamroller? Not really. I'd still rather champ any of them over Rulk (maybe not Iceman).
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 13:30 (seven years ago) link
4* land?
*peers into the distance, longingly*
― a landlocked exclave (mh), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 14:35 (seven years ago) link
It will come eventually! I didn't start getting a decent roster until I started focusing on the progression awards in PVE rather than PVP; it was a lot of grinding though.
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 14:37 (seven years ago) link
ditto. i've got 26 LT right now i've been saving up and 1500 CP (/20 per CL = an additional 75 CL tokens!). every 3* is rostered except for colossus and all but 7 are champed. every 4* is rostered but 5 (mr.f, venom eddie brock, deadpool, the thing and war machine). i'll hopefully be able to open all these tokens soon and presumably cover at least a couple 4*s (have at least a few btwn 6-8 covers) but it requires so much iso to champ them that i'm not in any kind of rush.
― Mordy, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 14:47 (seven years ago) link
I would love if it'd stop giving me the same 1* card over and over. I can't champ that Spider-Man. Stop giving me the damn cards!
― a landlocked exclave (mh), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:02 (seven years ago) link
oh yeah, standard tokens suck a lot (unless you manage to get a 3* out of them because they guarantee a bonus 3* pull)
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:17 (seven years ago) link
otoh every little bit of ISO helps
I was banking it and was up to about 70k before I realized I had just a single character I'd forgotten to level
― a landlocked exclave (mh), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:21 (seven years ago) link
is that true that pulling a 3* from a standard token guarantees a bonus pull? i think i got one today (bonus pull: hawkeye) but just assumed i was super lucky
― Mordy, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:23 (seven years ago) link
fwiw i wouldn't bother spending iso on 1*'s - you'll make the transition to 2*'s quickly enough and ultimately you'll just have 1* (juggernaut probs) on your roster
― Mordy, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:24 (seven years ago) link
I have no 1* characters to spend iso on, I'm all done with 1*, please stop giving me them entirely
― a landlocked exclave (mh), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:25 (seven years ago) link
You will need a bunch of ISO to level 2* and 3* characters, which is basically all you should worry about until you have most of them championed. From that standpoint, getting regular little drops of 100 ISO will be very helpful in the long run. Basically IMO anything I can turn into ISO or hero points is A+, I will take it, thank you (leveling 4* characters is FUCKING EXPENSIVE)
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:41 (seven years ago) link
I have no 3* characters capable of being champed yet, current 2* champs are:Storm (classic)Steve Rogers (Captain America)Hawkeye (Modern)Thor (Marvel NOW!)Wolverine (Astonishing)Black Widow (original)Magneto (NOW!)
― a landlocked exclave (mh), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:44 (seven years ago) link
not optimal, but I make do
just focus on champing 2*s and don't worry about anything else yet; if you have the hero points for it, roster any 3* cover you encounter but don't bother leveling them until you have your 2*s near finished (the general idea being that this focus puts you into the hoard mode necessary to accumulate the ISO to power level a 3* to max once you're ready to move to that tier; also, by that point all of your 2* champss should be giving you regular ISO, HP, command points and 3* cards in addition to any PVE rewards).
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:52 (seven years ago) link
The 4* Essential nodes that give a CP as one of 6 rewards in PvE - those are rigged to always give the CP on the 4th attempt, right?
― Screamin' Jay Gould (The Yellow Kid), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 16:52 (seven years ago) link
Or earlier
― Mordy, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 17:04 (seven years ago) link
you will never have too much iso. you always need more and more and more
the new 3*s coming out are nice because they give you something to work toward, and also they seem way stronger than the old ones - talking about Thanos and Hawkeye, and I assume the new Starlord. of course, it also means wasting more HP on roster slots...
yellowkid - i also find it tends to be on the 4th try too, so maybe it is rigged / the CP has a "lower" pull rate
― Nhex, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 17:08 (seven years ago) link
it's always on the 4th clear; you will get one on the 2nd and one on the 4th if the sub-board is open for 48 hours instead of 24
(ditto for the "last" unrestricted node)
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 17:16 (seven years ago) link
I definitely have too much ISO. 250K atm and everything maxed and 47 roster slots. I want the gold coins, so I can expand my slots.
― rb (soda), Tuesday, 25 April 2017 18:15 (seven years ago) link
4*s use up sooooo much iso, let alone 5*s. believe me, you will use it
― Nhex, Tuesday, 25 April 2017 18:19 (seven years ago) link
So... you can't go very far in the new Starlord story mode without the 5*, right? Weird.
― Nhex, Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:03 (seven years ago) link
The whole thing only has 5 nodes in it; I don't remember where the 5* node popped up but I think they are assuming ppl are going to blow CP on the Star Lord store until they get a cover, since it's a 10% drop rate? (I got one on my first pull so I did the whole thing in a day.)
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:05 (seven years ago) link
true devilry
― Nhex, Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:06 (seven years ago) link
I think the only thing you can't do is that 5* node with the 3500 ISO reward
― Screamin' Jay Gould (The Yellow Kid), Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:08 (seven years ago) link
the whole thing is ludicrously short
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:09 (seven years ago) link
I champed my Prof X today and I'm gonna buy my last Iceman cover in the heroes store tomorrow. I'm still blah on vaulting but after that I'll feel pretty good about my 4 star roster (18 champed with Prof X)
― droit au butt (Euler), Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:30 (seven years ago) link
I am mad envious of your champed Prof X
OTOH I am one cover away on Wasp and C4ge; I need the game to stop giving me purple Gwenpool covers
― Rachel Luther Queen (DJP), Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:44 (seven years ago) link
oh ok. the way the story progresses its implied that there will be more chapters, but maybe they're splitting it up into separate story events for each Guardian or something
― Nhex, Wednesday, 3 May 2017 19:44 (seven years ago) link
I think my Gwenpool is 5-5-0. Bleh.
― droit au butt (Euler), Wednesday, 3 May 2017 20:21 (seven years ago) link
mine is 5-4-2

― Vernon Locke, Wednesday, 3 May 2017 22:51 (seven years ago) link
they're putting out new characters faster than i can roster them esp still catching up on missing chars. i still have like 30 LT bc i've not once had a moment since i champed my first 3* where i had sufficient hp to open them. now only missing 1 3* (colossus) and 4 4*'s (deadpool, the thing, war machine and venom). i guess on the plus side the 30LT plus the 1614 CP i have means i'll probably be able to champ some 4*'s relatively soon
― Mordy, Wednesday, 3 May 2017 22:53 (seven years ago) link
From the new icon I gather we're getting 4* Gamora now
― Nhex, Tuesday, 9 May 2017 04:10 (six years ago) link
Oh shit. I think the update wiped out my account :(
