Taking the term "Koopaling" to a whole new level since 2016.

^This basically

I did IM40/Medusa/Thanos and made sure to let his green take out the first one so he did 8k damage to the other two in one turn.

Honestly, 3Mags and IM40 can really loving wreck face. 3Mags is a lot better than I initially thought. He's got a ton of board shifting stuff, can rewrite protect, attack, or strike tiles into your own protect, and his abilities do a ton of damage.

My heart gets aflutter when he's boosted.

I have a second IM40 going now that my first one is 266. Having 2 will help quite a bit with the health packs when he gets hit.

Tbf, IM40 plus almost anyone is pretty op but CMag is one of my least favorite characters to have to go up against.

I just have it set to characters I want and don't have abnormal setups of colors of (loving Nightcrawler is 0/5/4).

For 3*s I tend to favorite characters who are close to a Legendary Token level.

Thanos 5* and Spiderman 5* are cool as hell but my team almost dies after every fight. This is just because the 12 days of Christmas loving kicks my rear end.

The Christmas fights have been pretty easy for me so far.

Though I do have a lot of good 4*s maxed, which helps a ton.

Is it just me or did the 3* rotation on the deadpool daily get shuffled this time around? Thanos used to be nearly at the end, a few after Doctor Strange, not right before him, and certainly not in rotation with Kamala Khan.

Jean x100

She’s top tier.

Next maybe Nick or Dead dunno it’s a toss up. Dino is a gimmick and you should only do it if you hate your self and want to waste the iso.

I'd like to see how she goes with R&G and Gamora instead of Medusa. Limited experience with the required characters node seems like she'd fit well.

I stole 10th place from this dude, and there's like 30 minutes left before the event ends.

Hopefully he'll come and take it back.

Also it's loving amazing how many points the nodes are worth in the last days, I only played the last two days and I got the 8 CP + 4* + Event Token.

Yes she really is. I'm hording everything so when she goes in I can champ her next.

Also if you are like me and like spending money on this terrible terrible game now is the time.

Amazon has the stark stash for 49 and if you pay with coins it takes it down to like 40 or so. I may or may not have 100,000 hp now.

Oh God America + Coulson + Loki / Wasp / Mockingbird is such a fun setup and that's with America at 1/1/1. Her damage is gonna be insane at max covers.

after we lit this one, nothing was ever the same
America is rigoddamndiculous with thor, and boosted DD in pve. I have her green active on turn 2, and the crits do 15k for a match 3.

She's crazy with Rocket & Groot and Gamora, even at just a single green cover. Gonna be interesting to see if she gets nerfed once folks start to champ her.

Her Green is so easy to trigger with +2 AP boosts in any two colors.

God help the enemy if you take +2 AP in all 6 colors.

On a side note, I really enjoy the new UI updates to the mobile version.

It's nice that you can see your total Strike and Attack and Defense Tile points,

Also nice that you can see your and your opponent's AP reserves without having to slide the top part of the screen.

It's especially helpful for America.

Also the next PvE event is gonna be hella easy. Boosted R&G + required Lockjaw.

They dropped the price on that DD H4H cover down to 250cp if anyone cares.

Thor! Not the greatest for PVP but slaughters PVE so I'm ok with that.

I also only have like 13 4*s left to champ.

I'm glad for you.

I'm doing pulls in hopes of getting 5* Gambit.

I don't plan on leveling him, but his stats + Black passive + Chav seems like a sweet setup.

Got 1 more Black and Purple, bringing him up to 2/0/3 which isn't that bad.

Though now I have 0 CP.

Also the new Kraven seems like a R&G + Gamora counter.

Yeah I pulled 40LL tokens and 600CP today and my gambit is still 0/2/4 lol. I do have 5 Thor’s on the vine so yeah.

There is still about 6 weeks left for gambit so I’m crossing my fingers that I can get him.

Can confirm that gambit+chavez is crazy good. If you've got the boosted 5* of the event you're getting upwards of 25k dmg each turn for free.

5* Thor is awesome sauce for PvE. It’s so drat much fun. Easily worth the 575k champ fee

New loading screen has Nico, America, Kate and Pizza Dog under a rainbow. I am going to assume this implies Pizza Dog is gay. Kate too but I don't care about that.

Ok have enough to champ another 4 star and covers for 3 of them that can be champed. So should I go with Deadpool, Thing, or Ant-Man?

Of those options I personally have the most fun with Deadpool. Countdown for What might honestly be my favorite power in the game, it's just so fun and unique.

Depends, if you've got 4* carol and rocket go Deadpool and watch the sim meta murder itself on you. Otherwise your pick, all three of them are a bit long in the tooth for the current meta.

Deadpool is the best character in the game to pair with a single 5* so if you're planned on transitioning to that then I'd definitely champ him
