Nice! I drew a bunch of Mordo covers so I'm champing him now. I also finally drew my last needed Nova cover so maybe he's next. I have...six fully covered 4 stars to cover now. As ever the iso's the problem.

kind of grinding around because I have another couple characters I can champ, even some covers on deck to use when I have the iso, twiddling my thumbs

C4rol + boosted Blad3 = lol

Enemy matches are giving me black so I don't even have to chase it, just collect as much purple and yellow as I can; as soon as I can fire Blad3's black, I do, dropping an ever-renewing 1-turn cooldown. Blad3 has usually dropped some strikes for buffing at this point, so I drop his purple for the attack tiles and then start spamming C4rol's yellow to make everything on the board silly. I think so far my best boost has given me 10K match damage and 15K attack hits, allowing me to melt the other team regardless of who they've brought. The only times I've lost have been when I've been too cocky in PVE and gone in under half health only to be hit by an unlucky cascade.

I put in Strang3 as a third and any node with goons on it becomes hilarious.

same

the low level ones, I don't even need to pay attention to matching tiles because he insta-kills them

I started leveling G4mora after covering her at 4/5/4 and... holy shit

Granted, she's boosted in this event but STILL. Her black is silly. (Add in C4rol and gg)

So many great black skills - carol, hobofist, gamora... c&d is essential for generating

I got two Spidey (the 5* Peter Parker) covers and he's boosted in the current event. Even with just one each of green/blue he's kind of fun

champed g4mora and she's a joy. also finished champing all my 3*'s (except for Elektra) and got the last cover i needed for c4ge so that's my next project (once i've champed this 2* hawkeye for my farm).

FINALLY gonna champ Cloak & Dagger, yay

They're a lot of fun. I'm getting close to champing iceman. I'd love to champ Vulture he's like next level

There are so many good characters out there now, it's ridiculous.

In the current PvE, I started running Medusa/DocOck/Bl4de and it was just silly at points with the healing/AP gen/free attack tiles/tile buffing/oh look Bl4de is Bloodlusting, gg

i run medusa/grocket/g4mora in pve and pvp. they'll probably nerf it at some pt it's super dominant. i can regularly hit 900 pts in pvp using it

I rrrrreally need some Grocket and Medusa covers.

Medusa is nuts. I'm a couple of covers away on both Grocket and G4mora.

I champed 4 star Iron Fist a couple of days ago, now I'm champing lol Ghost Rider because I have an extra cover & because after the buff he's not as terrible.

Yeah, I'm gonna miss buffed Bl4de after this week.

In the Loki PvP, I am currently #16 in my slice.

Mordy is #15

lol

lol nice. i'm 11 points from 900. gonna hit it later tonight and shield until end of event.

I should have shielded, oops

Bye bye, 100 points of progress

4/4/4 Medusa, time to play bonus hero roulette IMO

Nice. My C4ge is at 2-5-5 and I have the cp to buy the other but I dunno, six+ 4/5 star covers are a lot to give up for just one. He's very good but not game changing and I have lots of champed 4 stars already. So I dunno.

no reason to rush c4ge imo esp since we just went through all his boosted events (the defenders) - we probably have some time until he's boosted again

yeah that seems right

still trying to 270 ghost rider, having an extra cover expiring in 2 days but only at 241, it's looking bad for that cover, but I think I'll finish the 270'ing anyway & then draw the cps -> legendaries.

btw after having used my champed boosted war machine a lot this last week, I can say he really sucks & needs a buff. in a way he's like falcap: one good bomb (that would be even better if invisible tiles & protect tiles mattered in this game) & two lame abilities. green at 5 gives three countdown tiles blasts that suck even when buffed to 370+.

my iceman is one cover away from being maxed (gonna get it during this lockjaw pve) and then i think i'm bonusing vulture to try and complete him soon. he's like the 4* IM40 and consequently probably going to be super important to the meta.

I was traveling when he was introduced so I only got the one cover from 2000ing the shield sim last season. he seems great!

With C&D boosted and a new champ for me, I decided to build a team around them:

lvl 345 OML 4/2/0
lvl 272 C&D 4/4/5
lvl 345 Thano5 4/2/4

Basically, I use C&D to collect black and get some attack tiles, drop OML's black strikes, hit C&D's purple and do match damage while OML and C&D heal back up to full and the attack/strike combo + Court Death murders the other team. Also, C&D's purple is doing 4K damage by itself and if I need to hit C&D's yellow before flipping them in order to keep OML capable of generating strikes, I get a 4K AOE because few if any of the enemies in this PvE are dropping strike/protect/attack tiles. The only nodes this is "bad" on is the early ones, where Court Death wipes out the entire team before OML and C&D can heal. I think I've used a total of 3 health packs while clearing and I do not miss having someone who can use blue. Than05 is tanking most of the colors, too; OML gets red and yellow and T gets everything else, so very little is touching C&D aside from Court Death.

If I had a red cover for OML, I would try this in PvP.

Had no idea the Cosmic Token Store was happening. Pulled a black Thano5 cover from it, making him 4/2/5. I may start leveling him again, assuming the PvE scaling issues have actually been addressed.

Haven't played PVP in a while - didn't realize they changed the reward system so now you get stuff for wins, regardless of PVP rank? That seems... good?

they ran it for a (short) season that ended yesterday, now there's another short season that's back to the old way. I guess they're testing the new way. I think I like it but it doesn't really matter that much to me.

I have 30 champed 4 stars now, having champed Riri yesterday. I have a fully covered Cloak & Dagger with 2 extra covers so that's next.

After that I have 5 more fully covered 4 stars, with Gamora & Nova at the top of the list. I'm one cover away with Coulson & C4ge, and two away with Rocket & Groot. I want all three of those.

The newer ones seem good, Yondu, Mockingbird, etc., but covers are coming slowly. It feels like the pace of new characters has slowed of late, though.

Thoughts on Rogue?

My impression from the loaner version: OMG I'M PLAYING ROGUE FINALLY YEARS OF THIS GAME HAVE PAID OFF YES YES YES YES oh the match is over and I didn't pay any attention to her abilities, oops

lol

She seems good! I have one cover so far, from the shield thing.

same here; I am intensely playing HoD to try for more of her covers (currently at #9)

i can't progress bc my prof x isn't high enough level :(

Apparently at some point I decided to park my Prof X at 209 so I was very happy with my unintentional foresight.

looks like the mutants are allowed in freemium games again. hopefully MvC Infinite gets some too.

Damn, the lvl 209 gate is frustrating and effective at getting me to kinda play the game more. but there's no way for me to Prof X to that level without spending tons of CP, so i'll just have to stop at tier 3.

I saw something about Daredevil being the next required 5* and decided to blow through the 300+ CP I'd started hoarding in an attempt to get him. I ended up with a 2/4/1 5* Spidey and fully covering Medusa, XPool, and Kingpin. Also have Totally Awesome Hulk at 270 with a cover ready for champing. No Daredevil, though.

Medusa and Carnage make a fantastic team.

all tendrily

I got my 4 star Gamora and Rocket and Groot fully covered of the weekend. Also got my last C4ge cover. Currently I have extra Nova and Gamora covers, think Gamora is higher priority.

Btw c4rol + c&d smoke together, gonna try to 900 to get that rogue and I’m not expecting much trouble (I champed both)

C&D is used mainly for the first-form passive, right? I don't really understand that character.

Producing black to feed another plus then attack tiles passively is nice. Yellow blast hits hard enough plus cleans enemy junk. Plus you can cheaply switch to the other, start true healing with yellow gen if you need it. The black that knocks an enemy’s powers down is weird and I’ve never used it. Weird char def but effective, especially as a support char who can hold its own on damage cheaply

purp can do some serious dmg too

like while boosted you're getting 4000dmg for 3 purple

I've been mostly using C&D in this PvE to fuel C4rol's black and yellow; basically there's always a ton of black on the board due to C&D's passive, which gets me to C4rol's black quicker, which I can then usually hit with C4rol's yellow for an instanuke that also buffs any attack tiles that are out from C&D's passive. If things get dicey, I use the cheap purple to switch C&D's stance for some decent damage and then C&D true heals while I hoover up any leftover black on the board to throw down more of C4rol's black to get some strikes on the board.

I've been running C&D 4/5/4 and it's been great. C&D black has only really been useful on nodes that are way overscaled for me and I want to minimize someone's incoming nuke; prioritizing C4rol means I usually have killed that character before it can hurt me.

Rogue is a perfect counter to C4rol, which is super satisfying from a lore perspective.

yay FINALLY have a 14th Medusa cover

i just champed her (these days i champ when i hit 13 covers, don't wait for the 14th), excited to use her more!

i also have a profx at level 250, 5/3/4, and i just got another of his first cover... so now he's the only hearted character in the 4s and i've got 8 days left. c'mon, RND gods!

oh fuck yeah, i just hit the purple profx i needed out of that anniversary box!

aaaaand i just hit my 13th bl4de on a leg pull (was 5/5/2, i gave up hope). everything's coming up willhouse!

Blade and Medusa are aces

Running C4rol + Loki + Daken in Combined Arms is highlarious
