I'm still waiting on Galactus. Only 2200 tokens to go... it'll probably be a while.

I heard math somewhere that most players who have not finished pool 3 will earn around 1000 tokens per month. After completing pool 3, that number jumps to 6000 per month.

It's not GOOD per se because under normal circumstances it's only gonna work if Lamentis flips third, but Black Widow in this featured location is funny

You know, I was running my Patriot Kazoo through this Lamentis game and getting a large variety of opponents, but then I decided to see what the fuss was about and made a meta Death deck and it was like I passed into an alternate Meta Dimension, where every single person is running either the same deck or the deck designed to murder my deck. This made me more appreciative of the deck-matching algo now.

Think I just had some sour grapes directed at me. Turn 6, they played Odin on an empty Bar Sinister. I was afraid it was going to be an infinite loop for a minute there.

Had someone play Storm on a location same time I played Storm on another location. You just know I had to Absorbing Man the third location. Had a "Limbo" game go only to 5 turns because of that lol. We both snapped so I still walked away with 4 but it was kinda funny and I wish I wasn't as reactionary to clicking on "Collect Rewards" so I could've gotten a screenshot.

edgar_ posted:Got a Namor ultimate variant in the token shop two or three days ago. It rotated in again today. Very stupid The token shop has a fixed percentage chance of containing something from these groups (actual percentages are different, I'm just pulling these out of my rear end to make it easier to read): 50% pool 3 card 30% pool 4 card 15% pool 5 card 5% ultimate variant Within these groups, you are guaranteed to see every item once before you can get repeats. Taking pool 4 as an example, once you have seen all 10 cards in the group, the next time the RNG gives you another item from pool 4, you will start to see repeats. Now, because there are currently only 2 ultimate variants, if the RNG rolls you, at 5% each time, the 'ultimate variant' for the 3rd time, it will obviously show you a variant you've seen already. Again, percentages given are made up. (I think the ultimate variant chance is actually 2.5%, but don't quote me on that.)

They made the ultimate variant odds too high given that they launched with two.

I didn't think the art was anything stunning, and I was thinking why the hell would I buy a variant of a meh card instead of getting something like She-Hulk? Side note: I'm quite enjoying my She-Hulk/Death deck this past few days. I am the problem.

should put in the OP that folks should try to max out their credit stack and not upgrade cards when they get to the 590s, before going to CL600. smooths out that initial phase of getting absolutely trounced

No Wave posted:yeah. That's the part of the game where they really try to monetize you. it's poo poo by design. if anything it discourages me from spending any money on progression because it's hilariously expensive to get more cards. just completely ridiculous. i guess that stretch from 600-1000 you can get some number of cards but after that it gets even more hilariously expensive. One of the four caches you get over 48 CL will give you a card, which means 2400 credits per card, which is 1920 Gold per card. There is no variance on this number since the changes when they introduced the token shop, it is straight 2400/card. The only variance is whether you get the card after 600 or after all 2400 credits have been spent (and if you get it after 600, the next 1800 won't have any cards). If I did the math right then uh, if you get the $100 gold pack then it's $1=100 credits (8000 gold / 120 gold * 150 credits = 10000), so $24/card. at least at my budget i can only f2p for cards, because lol at paying $24 for one random card.

Mix of deck recommendation and request for advice here. After lots and lots of death shenanigans I got bored and switch over to this, to pretty good results today (people have no idea Magneto is coming): # (1) Sunspot # (1) Iceman # (1) Korg # (2) Psylocke # (2) Armor # (3) Cosmo # (3) Wave # (4) Moon Girl # (5) Magik # (6) She-Hulk # (6) Magneto # (6) The Infinaut # eyJDYXJkcyI6W3siQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiSW5maW5hdXQifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6Ik1hZ2lrIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJTaGVIdWxrIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJTdW5zcG90In0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJJY2VtYW4ifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkNvc21vIn0seyJDYXJkRGVmSWQiOiJNb29uR2lybCJ9LHsiQ2FyZERlZklkIjoiUHN5bG9ja2UifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IldhdmUifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6Ik1hZ25ldG8ifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IktvcmcifSx7IkNhcmREZWZJZCI6IkFybW9yIn1dfQ== # Game plan is: (1) Moon Girl->Magik->Pass-> infinaut + 2 she hulks; (2) Wave->She Hulk+Magneto; (3) Psylocke->Pass->Infinaut + 1 she hulk. Am wondering if folks have any thoughts for the 1 drops other than sunspot. Korg and Iceman just seem good to me (I’m missing Hood) but maybe I’m missing something that would work well. Wish I could get Electro so I could run him and Viper…

I would complain more about the slow card drip but as parasite points out it basically just means you’re dumb to spend money outside of the season pass (or variants if you’re that particular kind of sicko)

The idea is a.) creating a large pressure to advance quickly at CL600 and b.) establishing a terrible baseline for $ -> progression so that things like season pass and bundles look better. I don't have a problem with them monetizing the game btw I want them to make tons of money, I'm just making it clear that if CL600 sucks it is not user error the entire deck is stacked against you.

I'll add that Featured Locations tend to make this worse, since it creates optimized decks that don't really have counters because of the location advantage (see: Death. Yeah you can shang-chi her, but you should still run your own)

I kind of want to call bull about the Pool 3 decks thing. I was slowly advancing though that area for a while and I never really had much trouble (and my Pool 3 pulls before CL 600 were Wave, The Hood, Mysterio, Electro, Giganto, Viper, Thor, Rescue, and Black Cat, in that order).

I’m ~1100 CL and the card acquisition system is kinda wearing on me. Maybe I’m just salty cuz I’ve pulled pure poo poo like Rockslide and Helicarrier in between all my bullshit titles and assorted garbageNo Wave posted:Yes, that's what I mean. They turn off collection based matchmaking at CL600 for a reason. Where are you getting this from? The pool/MMR system is opaque as hell but is this actually some confirmed threshold?
