There's a recruit pool with like 12.5% OBW drop rate right now, if you haven't already done that PvE.

Enemy of the State? Yep, the problem is that she's at 3/5/3 and I've gotten about 8 each of the two I don't need. Not a long-term problem (I'm sure soon I'll hate every OBW cover, not just 2/3 of them) but yeah.

The worst thing about kishu is that, unlike every single other character, killing him doesn't release his trap tiles until you've possibly taken damage from the match that kills him.

Shooting for all the standard token rewards in Enemy of the State (want those 1* Spider-Man covers), lots of repeat stages. But having fun with a team of 3*Bullseye, Scarlet Witch, and 1*Storm. SW generates decent pink for Bullseye, who then tosses Storm's hailstones and the ninjas. Lots of opportunity to see the greatest portrait in the game.

Wow, the game has been very nice to me today. That purple IF, and of my four Enemy of the State tokens, four were 3* and above. Well, one was Yellow Spider-Man and he's maxed, another was Mohawk Storm and she's maxed, one was yellow Captain Marvel and she was maxed, but not in yellow so her powers are now the recommended one.

And the other one was mother loving Blue Prof. X. I didn't have any blues for him yet.

Also I'm on track for that 80,000 point Daredevil.

Oh, and I finally cracked the "I hate ninjas" problem. Hulk and Patch and OBW. It is complete carnage.

Why does the pyro's flamethrower take like three minutes to resolve? Is there some sort of bug?

"I didn't see the part where he develops as a character so I guess he never developed as a character"
If by three minutes you mean 10 seconds it's because the devs are fully aware of how bullshit flamethrower's turns/damage ratio is and want you to clench your anus in dread when it goes off.

If by three minutes you mean literally three minutes you should contact support because that's not supposed to happen.

"I didn't see the part where he develops as a character so I guess he never developed as a character"
I got top 50 without grinding at all, just doing three full clears per sub and then cutting back to one each on the last two subs after I'd gotten the progression DD. I guess waiting for new shards to open really does make a big difference.

Oh God, QS, SW, and Vision in one group. I wish I had more Tokens. Only have 40. 50 if I count the ones I'll get during the week.

I used up my current batch of tokens and got 2 Rag, 2 IF, a bunch of 2*s and like two or three dupe 3*s. Which was a pretty good haul, since that brings up my IF to 2/2/2 now.

Also a new 4*!

Assumed to be Fantastic Four, since one of the new character's skills works with "Family".

Yeah at the moment it's too much effort to grind for 4* characters. Plus there's no point in doing so; I can get 3* characters just fine with my squadron of maxed 3*s.

This game needs 2 things :

DDQ for 4*s
More story events for new characters.

I'd keep blade and hulk first. Definitely keep hulk if you have black covers and wolverine patch green covers.

Among the ones you listed, Vision and Quicksilver are generally considered not as useful.

That being said, Vision and Quicksilver will both be required for Deadpool Dailies starting tomorrow (QS tomorrow, Vision 3 days from now), which means 1 more free DP token + a copy of each hero (assuming you can beat the nodes). So that's worth keeping under consideration.

I personally really like QS, even though his Black is probably his only useful skill. Green is way too random.

Vision and Quicksilver are easily the worst of those. That said, every 3* you throw away is a potential essential in the future.

Ignite Memories

Bummer, those are the two that I find more interesting. I like Vision's unique mechanics. Hulk and Blade always seemed sort of boring to me.

Right now I only have one cover for each of those heroes - Red Daredevil, Green Quicksilver, Red Vision, Green Hulk, Green Blade. I'm still in stage 2* right now, with my highest team members around 65. It was actually a loving miracle that I beat today's DDQ for another Kamala cover, because I had no business beating all 4 waves.

How do Falcon, Cage, Kamala, Bullseye, Psylocke and Grocket compare to those guys? I've got 2-4 covers for each of them, and figured I would probably hang onto them for now.

I disagree with this dude about a few rankings (Beast/She-hulk), but it's at least an effort post that discusses the pros & cons of each 3*. For your list, Cage, Kamela, & Groot are all definite keepers, as is Blade from the list you're trying to pick from. The rest are meh to pretty meh.

Thanks guys, I will put that into consideration. Where do you find out about upcoming quests, like that?

edit: Oh yeah, I also found a blue Invisible Woman cover this morning. That makes 3 4* covers I have taking up space right now. (Sue, Fury, LadyThor).

Considering I'm still about a year and a half from stage 4, should I be chucking some of these for space or should I hang onto them?


edit: I saw that post, but I noticed Quicksilver and Vision weren't on there so I wasn't sure how up-to-date his opinions were.

I think they were capping them at 1,000. I forget where I heard that, and am not sure if it's true.

On a side note, I'm somehow managed to stay within Top 100 despite joining a bit late and not doing much grinding.

I've been having a ton of fun with SW, Prof X, and GBW. SW only has 4 Blue and Prof X only has 3 Blue, but I feel like Prof X has a hidden passive that states that 5-matches become 100 times more common. Selective memory, probably, but I get so many 5-matches even without using skills.

Oh great, a kamala contest on PvP. Kamala is one of the few *** i have multiple covers for, so I really wanna place well in this one. Were you guys saying something about a website that tracks the number of entrants in the events to help you rank up? I wanna do anything I can to place well in this one, despite not even having a maxed team of 2s.

edit: how does the 'low-effort' queue work, and how can I try and get put onto it?

Fuuuuuuck, today's SW is SW Green, not SW Blue. Still need 1 more Blue .

On a positive note, I got Hulkbuster Blue from today's DPD Token, bringing him to 1/1/3. Wish it had been a Black, though. Hulkbuster Black would be really useful.

Not gonna get far in the Deadpool PvP cause I'm up against strong people and I'm too lazy to make an effort. Guess that's the price I have to pay for doing well in the PvE event.
