I guess its possible Grey Widow is his only 3-star.

Juggevent is so wild and random in both directions. My repeatable of choice is Digging Deeper with the provided 29 Hawkeye and my 77 Thor and 80 Cstorm. I can go back to back rounds where I need to heal one or both of Thor/Storm or I can say to myself "Okay, I'll go to sleep after I exhaust my last 2 health packs" and go 10 in a row without needing to heal. Got a 500 point lead at the moment but feel like that's probably not enough to last me overnight. Maybe it's enough to stop other people from getting too much of a lead on me, though.

It's easier to do Imposter. Digging deeper has a scary ragnarok that can ruin my day.

Instead of going nuts over Widow, I got some sleep. I feel secure in my judgement. Heroic Mode goes 9109 - 8982 - 5754 - 5651 (me), 10th place is 4119, so I think top 15 is pretty secure from both directions. Three-Star I can at least noodle around in (IM40 39 - Doom 55 - Spidey 43 - Widow 30 - Magneto 28 - Hood 20 - Loki 18), but I have no chance when the big boys come to the playground. Now more than ever I'm tempted to drop 1250 on a level of Spidey Blue.

Ugh.. I've got nobody worthwhile to use in this tournament. I did just get a gray-suit Black Widow with a standard recruitment token, so that's pretty awesome! Just don't know that I want to waste crystals levelling up one-skill 3 stars just to fight in this.

I don't hate Hawkeye, but he was much more useful early on than he is now. I just wish they'd quit flooding me with his cards. Who the gently caress still needs Hawkeyes and Modern Black Widows if you're in the top 200 in some of these tournaments?

Wow. Top two in my Juggernaut bracket are over 10k. My 5412 is good enough for 4th place with a bunch of people catching up. Dropped to 8th overnight.

I was sitting pretty at 3rd for most of the weekend and devoted most of my energy to maintaining 1st for the Widow tourney, but now I'm sitting perilously close to the 15th place cutoff in my bracket (I'm at 12 with about 4200 points - clawed my way up from 17 when I woke up this morning). I'm concerned that enough people are going to be ambitious enough to push me past the 15th place cutoff, and I want those covers, dammit! The leader of my bracket has 8900 loving points, and that's up about 1K from this morning. Has a boosted character always had boosted health, too? I just used IM40 in the Juggernaut tourney and he had a ridiculous amount of hitpoints (more than his 3470).

Got the update. The combat UI is... okay, I guess... but I wish they'd provide the old one as an Options toggle as I think I liked it a lot better. It was clean and visually effective and I feel like they cluttered this up for no good reason. Haha, gently caress you I just sent 25 of you Hawkeye Classics. Fellis posted:New update looks great. I didn't like them upping the price of cover slots but it makes a lot more sense with the new drop system What are you seeing in covers that's different? I just ran a different Heroic mission to get a Hawkeye to drop, and apart from being able to sell him on the first screen instead of clicking the arrow twice it seemed similar.

As long as they're doing the new UI, I think it would be helpful to see the enemy's ability bars as well, so you can know if you need to play keep away with one specific color without having to pull over the little bar.

A pair of late-coming patch notes: - Stunned characters will no longer have their Countdown tiles decrease while stunned. S.H.I.E.L.D. still mystified as to how H.A.M.M.E.R. Snipers managed to line up shots with active concussions. - New Iso-8 breakthrough has allowed characters buffed by Events to also increase their Health by the buff amount. The former makes sense and is a very welcome buff to stunners against HAMMER and the Maggia. The latter... welp. Ragnarok now owns Lightning Rounds even more than before.

new UI takes a getting little used to but I think its slick as hell. I like it. and the new cache system. would be nice to toggle the AP bars instead of sliding all the time. And it would be nice for the devs to just simultaneously list the 4 prizes instead of waiting for the slideshow and slowly watching to see if theres any hero token or hero point drop I missed. loving the Iron Man buff. much easier to kill juggs. Just did that mission, got the 3 hawkeyes and send +25 to you all. I get a hawkeye, you get a hawkeye, EVERYONE GETS HAWKEYES!

delfin posted:The latter... welp. Ragnarok now owns Lightning Rounds even more than before. Yeah, but it also seems like a necessary compensation now that they've fixed the tile bug so characters are getting the tiles they do the most damage for again. A boosted character is going to be out front pretty much all the time, so it's good they can take more punishment.

The gem flashing was annoying when you were waiting for a higher cost skill and had to keep checking. I'm liking the new at-a-glance system, if they could add it for your opponenets without turning it into a mess I'd be totally satisfied.

delfin posted:A pair of late-coming patch notes: I would hope that this would mean the end of 200% buffs in PVP. Triple hitpoints for any leveled character would be painful, and buffed Ragnarok with 21k hitpoints can go gently caress himself. However, this has a (probably intended) side benefit of making CStorm passive exploitation a little harder by virtue of buffing the HP's of the forced/buffed characters.

Seems like they reduced the timer to regen from dead to alive, just lost a guy a few min ago and it's only a 2m58s wait left til the guy's alive again. Is there some more intuitive way to use the new UI to activate abilities? I press the button beside the dude and then press and hold the ability for a second and release. IM35 buff in Juggevent is a double edged sword for me, it seems like they might have fixed the buffed characters tile bonus not letting them tank damage thing since my IM35 tanks everything but green (which CStorm does) now, so I can't trigger Raging Tempest.

Is it just my imagination, or does the new Original Widow really suck? I was thinking I'd just sell her cover, but I guess if they're planning to introduce a new ability for her I should at least wait for that and see what it is...

Well, on balance the new interface seems nice. I was worried at first that it seemed to slow the game down on my older device, but have gotten used to it. Firing off powers seems slightly quicker now. Just got my 1750 point IM40 reward, wondering if it's worth grinding any further since the flow of good mission rewards (like hero points) seems to have dried up.

Man. Last night nearly crushed my interest in this game. Nearly. At 15 minutes left in the tourney I had just finished up a match that had taken a bit too long. I pop out and I lost ~180 points from attacks, dropping me from 2nd in my bracket to 13th. I thought I'd burn through some boosts to get some retaliations on people who I assumed to be at my level or a little above and probably in the same point range so that I could try and get back up, but not one single retaliation match showed up. I dropped some coins in the two star slot machine hoping it would "sync" me up or whatever and that didn't work, I force closed and restarted the app and that didn't work either. I cycled through a bunch of single digit fights and managed to grab a couple of ~20 point matches and only managed to get to 12th place. It's a good thing that I didn't really have a lot of desire for the new Black Widow. Also a good thing that the cover I got from the slot machine was Spider-Man blue  . Using him in the three star tournament and his power is loving hilarious once you get them down to one person. My Iron Man 40 has the yellow ability up to level 2 so it produces blue as well. Pop Spider-Man's stun and a recharge on the same turn and enjoy your six turn stun (assuming you can get at least one blue match).

Gah, this accidental Black Widow ban is really frustrating me, I've dropped from position 238 to 401 and I can't use a full set of three semi-powerful champions as a result. So long, Thor covers

Just added myself to the Facebook pages for free points. Question on the Juggernaut tournament: I'm locked out of the second mission (The Juggernaut), which has a red checkmark on the city screen and a lock and red "Mission Completed" where "Replay Mission" would normally be. What gives? I only collected 1/4 rewards; I have 4/4 on the first mission and it will still let me replay.

I'm just going to let the Heroic Mode finish up now without stressing about placement. Got up to 3000 for the prizes, anyone who wants to get more than that can go ahead. It's nice that they can go and grind themselves silly without having to stomp on my head to do it. 3 Star I'm pretty much going to have to ignore. Can't beat anyone really. Might have to have a break from the game this week unless they spring another event on us. Getting more used to the new UI now. It's pretty nice. Just have to remember to look at the doodads on the top of he screen every so often.
