Oh oops, sorry about that! Are you around now, I can make a space for you (there someone who has been inactive for 2 weeks I can kick)

Btw if you’re on facebook messenger that’s a good way to reach me to coordinate

I'm up to 7 5* champs now. Upside: grinding is much faster now. Downside: I champ new 4*s without knowing their abilities because I will never use them except when required. The only 4* I don't have champed now are Taskmaster, Domino, Bishop, Nebula, and Prowler, and they're all well-along. I steadily wonder what I am still playing for, since I don't see any reason to use anything but 5* Thor + Jessica Jones in PVP and 5* Doctor Strange in PVE; like, Kitty Pryde seems fun and I'm getting her pretty well covered but she's not gonna replace Jessica Jones. Anyway I guess the real answer is that I still have to poop and as long as that persists, there's a place for MPQ in my life.

Kitty is great in PVE. I’ve started playing her/Nico/4* Grocket and the passive damage escalation is hilarious.

wait did they just finally fix 3* carol's face

it only took them, what, 4 years?

ugh even doing the deadpool daily is now a burden for me

when it gets like that for me i just do the CP node and that's it. actually unless i have a chance at the 4* token I don't even do the rest

lol they changed Wanda's face now too. all female characters should live in fear now

lol

game down for anyone else? I can’t get past Loading... Loading... no %

They are in a maintenance window

btw if we are reviving this thread, can I just say Okoye + Sabretooth = lol

Also I champed 5* SadCap because that's how the bonus covers fell but I REALLY want to champ Kitty, Hela, and Storm

Thanking u for intel DJP.

I’m still working 4* transition but enjoying ye olde Medusa/Carnage/Reed team

I'm still playing every day, and I still only have 1 5* with 13 covers. I'm at the point where I sleep through the puzzle gameplay and just experience the gacha game stamping on my face forever.

I just do 3 nodes of the Deadpool daily each day plus the crash of the Titans

I recently champed my Silver Surfer though

I always liked Jessica Jones but didn't have her covered enough to make her a factor in any of my compositions. I've started leveling my 5s when they're boosted, so when she came up this past week I leveled her to 390 (3/2/4) and wow am I a believer now; I was tearing through all sorts of teams with her/Okoye/.5 Thor, including so many Gritty teams

I also realized that Gritty/Bishop is susceptible to Okoye/.5 Thor/4* blue stunner (ie, Gamora/Iceman/Peggy); the blue match damage is below the threshold to trigger Bishop and once you get enough AP to stun him, you can cascade Kitty to death and then usually get rid of Bishop shortly thereafter, leaving a lonely exposed Grocket to stomp on while Okoye runs through all of the yellow .5 Thor has banked for her to heal and create TU cascades to make .5 Thor's green and red even worse.

yeah one reason I stopped playing was the proliferation of Gritty/Bishop at the 5* level so I'm glad you're finding a way through it without smashing your phone

what's gritty

http://cnet4.cbsistatic.com/img/zNB5S30mUqvuWUfzDg1D8HaIIpo=/1600x900/2018/12/04/61f8b458-128f-4da9-b956-bd80527286e0/gritty-closeup.jpg

Gritty = 4* Groot/Rocket + Kitty Pride

Grocket places 7 strikes at the beginning of the match and Kitty instantly starts buffing them to insane degrees every turn until you can get rid of 4 of them or down her

It's super annoying

I've been trying to use black suit Spider-man against Gritty, since he nullifies enemy strike tiles, but once there's an attack tile out from Kitty's red I'm fucked.

I’ve had a good amount of success using Okoye to match away the strikes while .5 Thor passively collects yellow and generates cascades, oftentimes wiping other strikes off the board, then healing Okoye and nuking Kitty with Thor’s green/red. Of course when it doesn’t work, it’s a nightmare.

i might've started playing this again if gritty was on the roster

Anyone pull from Latest Legends now that 5* Storm is available? I decided to go for it since I had 350 CP banked and ended up with:

1 yellow Rescue (now 1/2/0)
1 black Hela (now 0/1/3)
2 yellow Storms (now 0/0/3)

This probably means I won't see another 5* until October...

(also I got back 22 CP from the champ levels for the 4*s I drew, which hey)

Nice turnaround today - Pulled a 3* Bulleye, which netted me a 4* Kingpin reward, which then got me a 5* Daredevil reward.

5* Storm and 5* Iceman are beasts, even underleveled. In particular, required 5* Storm on the Royal Family node made my Thorkoye combo extremely happy.

Oh also my kingdom for Sabertooth covers, he is the anti-Gritty

I haven't drawn one of the new 5* for a long time now, I'm just drawing classics. I played the season sim to 2000 just for laffs the other day, I had to skip a lot of gritty but I got it.

IMO Storm and Iceman are both worth it

This video of Iceman going stun-crazy is hilarious: https://youtu.be/zo5JtWLCfIQ

3D acceleration is... weird! Amazed it took them this many years to do it though lol

I think I hate it

new framerate is... weird

lol I had five pulls that I could use in the 5* Prof X store and I walked away with:

1 blue Dr Strange
1 blue Banner
1 blue Prof X

plus 1 purple Medusa and 1 blue (!) Shuri

you guys, the MPQ forum is hilariously bad

post after post after post of high-end or high-end wannabe players demanding that the game give them free rewards with little-to-no time investment/effort/money

D3Go just announced that they are removing bonus heroes and replacing them with a shard system that lets you target specific powers on a character and people are having shit-fits because... they aren't getting hundreds of free levels on 5* characters, as far as I can tell

There is also sentiment that collecting shards on a character will be wasted if you RNG into enough covers to champ them, even though shards also count towards champion levels, because no one in this slice of the player base wants to feed champion levels to any of their characters...?

5* Hawkeye and 4* Cap (Worthy) is a pretty crazy team. There's a few in PVP but most people are still running Gritty.

Worthy Cap is a total asshole

The shard system seems good so far, I like it

It's very good IMO.

I like it too

I don't like that it's added an extra "acknowledge your shards" tap after every token you open

I worry that I'll put all my 5* shards into one character and then that character will get nerfed before I can use them.

It's better than the old system, in any case.

Don't sell any max champion characters in the next week. They're changing the rewards and giving out some retroactive rewards for rostered characters.

Ooooh

Yeah this looks great. I’ll get my 5* Iceman champed right away!

I got 6 5* covers from the retroactive awards, plus a leg token that gave me another 5*. Nothing on characters that I can use yet (all in the 1-8 cover range), but nice nonetheless.
