I'm once again trying to spread the good word of retreat sharing in conquest once you know the other guy is also playing patriot. I got through my quest in like 30 minutes so I don't have to play patriot anymore

Good call on this

My best guess on spotlight reserves (once you're getting a box every 12 cl) is that one will appear on 850 and are every 120th level after that. They could also just start from your first unopened box. Who knows! If I had unopened boxes and was willing to gamble for maximum returns I would skip every cl850+120x box and open the rest

I just picked up the medal shop mystery variant and it removed the week 4 mystery variant from availability, and my "SOLD!" section now includes both.

Hi.
I spent my 6k on High Evo. No regrets. BUT I am torn about opening current boxes or not. On one hand, gold and tokens, which sound waaaay rarer in the future. Plus I only have like 2k tokens right now. But on the other, a better shot at series 4/5 when they come out, plus whatever else may be in there. 🤔

Having to win with Patriot so many times this weekend reminds me how much I enjoy Patriot decks. Iron Lad copying Brood is such a great play.

Its definitely been fun going back to that deck, though I added in Super Skrull and Rogue since there are so many other Patriot decks out, that's been fun

Hit infinite today. I started at 73 this season. High Evo decks feel really powerful. I switched between HE Lockjaw and HE Control. I wouldn't be surprised to see nerfs to HE Hulk and Cyclops. Now I'm working on the weekend missions and winning with Phoenix was a real chore. That card needs some kind of change to be useful in move or destroy decks.

Hit Infinite climbing from 73 with variations of this, but this is the version that got me the card back along with a surprising number of 8-cube wins in the high 90's. The core is as simple as Turn 1 Kitty, Turn 5 Shuri, Turn 6 Taskmaster, which gets Kitty and Taskmaster to 20 power. Invisible Woman is to hide Taskmaster behind. Angela and Bast are to make your dumb opponent think it's a more of a standard Bounce deck. Hood does that too but Demon is also a good backup target for Shuri and Taskmaster, as is Venom. And it's just fun to play

I can't get past 70. Nothing I try works anymore.. Same slump I hit every season. So goddamn frustrating. But I can farm gold tickets in Control with the same decks somehow.

Keep the faith. You’ve got better chances next week to get better cards. And HE should keep you busy dialing it in, you did just get 6 new cards.

It does need a couple of things fixing - my choice would be to streamline it by giving it move itself and dropping it to 5 power - but it's alright. I got my three wins in three games with this:

Human Torch
Carnage
Multiple Man
Venom
Hulkbuster
Shuri
Taskmaster
Phoenix Force
Red Skull
Arnim Zola
Heimdall
She-Hulk

I found a decent Patriot deck for the mission, found that I hardly ever used Brood, so then I just swapped it out for Phoenix Force and won that mission with that.

Took me from 77 to 83 as well, but then I dropped back down to 80, so I switched to proving ground and faced 8 Super Skrull decks in a row, so I teched in Rogue and never saw Super Skrull again. Getting the last 4 wins took longer than the first 11 once the matchmaking turned on me.

I just saw someone suicide an Attuma into Phoenix to make a 16, but you can't add anything else to the lane unless it's Armored or Wakanda or something. Might work for you in the right deck!


Also, this deck wrecks. Having a lot of fun with it. Snapster had it on his YouTube this morning.

Fortunately I hit infinite on Friday night so I didn't have to worry about losing cubes so I could just spam games without worrying about rank. I started like 2-6 (including getting Rogued) and was cooking from there and ended up gaining like 4 ranks

I'm skipping the season pass, oh no I don't get 100 tokens

I've been winning strong with Shuri Nimrod for like a month now. It's a good deck.
