How hard is it to make a match 3 game? Surely someone could make a decent rival (without the amazing licence, admittedly).

Hah, it's the licenses, both of them. Puzzle Quest was one of my favorite XBLA games, and I'm sure a lot of the people here are Marvel fans, too. I loving loved the crossover, and you have to admit there are a lot of options and game modes, and the kind of depth and polish that isn't very common on Android. And the teambuilding is relatively unique and satisfying. I just wish they'd stop treating every patch as an opportunity to gouge their customers some more.

With a top 50 in Simulator and top 50 in Cage Match I should get 5/3/3 Black Panther. Anyone checking the forums for the next event? With two giving out Black Panther covers it looks like he is next?

Third node of the simulator. I dropped defense tiles with Magneto. Later Sentry uses World Rupture. Each tile is a separate attack. I took 8 damage, since each was reduced to 1 damage. The enemy team took 40 times as much damage.

So, if all goes well, my Black Panther is going to be at 2/4/3 in six hours. Is it worth dumping tons of ISO into him as a currently-two-star player? Just looking at his skills, I'm not sure how well he'd pair with any two-stars. (Edit: Guess I should add, all useful two-stars are already at 85, it's either this or just keep saving it).

How much ISO do you have? BP is really only good for his black ability and unless hes the only thing you've got going for you I'd wait till you have a few more covers to commit a significant amount. If you want to boost him up a bit to help you in the current tournament that's a good idea but I wouldn't commit your whole load on him.

Right now, only enough to take him from around 50 to 80, but I could keep dropping everything into him as it comes in... but yeah, I think I probably won't. Give him a bit for the current PVP, but outside of that doubt I'll be using him until more black covers show up.

...the main problem is that Modern Storm is one of the best chars in the game but sucks because she's a 1*. A 3* version may be in everyone's lineup forever if not nerfed.

Like, her red is so ridiculously chainy on desert it's insane. And huge damage black and...argh.

Yup, it's a pretty dumb thing to release. They're pretty blatantly just trying to squeeze the whales for a few more bucks before everyone says "gently caress this poo poo".

So, I ended up getting sixth place in Cagematch yesterday and then a few hours later I was bumped up to fifth for some reason. Of course, I only received the rewards for getting top ten instead of top five. It was just 500 Iso but you'd think they would have some sort of system in place for situations where someone gets caught cheating or something.

Original Black Widow is so great. I can grind through an entire PVE session without using more than a couple of health packs.

But now would be good.

So what event is the current Classic Storm going to be used for? They've been throwing covers for her at us like crazy for the last two or three events. Not that I'm complaining, I got her up to 5/2/5 from the last few rounds of covers.

Her blue is a great stun/nuke when maxed out. Maybe they'll keep that as unique to CStorm?

Yeah CStorm blue + MN Mags purple seems like it would be a nasty combo.

Jargon question: what does lazy mean? Is it that the devs were lazy by copy/pasting 2* powers to 3* power levels?

Yep. Except if it's lazy modern storm it's copy pasting 1* powers.

Did they jack up the cost of Night Elf Mohawk's red? Checking out the cover rewards it starts at 9 to use for 12 damage per tile, with the next cover increasing the damage to 14. M Storm is 9 red to activate for 3 damage per tile, with the next cover reducing the AP cost by 1. Not sure how Mohawk's scales past 2 or if there is any AP cost reduction.

I hate these loving lazy characters so much. Just having characters that are a straight upgrade is bullshit, especially when character space is limited and you can't just throw out the weaker ones because you might need them later. They could at least have the decency to make them different, like the two Magnetos.

Still, on a positive note, Hulk is boosted for Thick as Thieves. And since I max-leveled him a couple of weeks ago, he's boosted up to 231 and he's monstrously strong. Hulk smash!

Don't spend money on this game. Seriously. The return for your dollar is laughably lovely compared to other similar games. There's fun to be had playing it but you should never spend a dime.
