What's not to like about Classic Storm? She's got an amazing stun that hits everyone on the enemy team for damage, an auto counterattack that hits everyone on the enemy team and the same tile shattering attack that regular storm has, except it can also scale up with the number of ap you have. Pyros, grenadiers and spies used to wreck my day but with Storm classic, Thor and Magneto they're just destroyed.

Modern storm has the slight benefit that her green tile breaking attack when maxed only costs 10 as opposed to classic storm's 12. She's also much easier to level up.

True, but my Classic Storm's stun and counterattacks are now in the 300-400 damage range. Its murdertime.

The counterattack is really only useful when the other guy is better than you. I like the stun, but I swear blue seems to be the least common color to me.

Managed to get Black Widow (Grey Suit) when I dropped a dollar on this. At level four she does 11 damage per blue, 12 damage per purple and 10 damage per black tile which is a great complement to Iron Man (yellow, red and blue tiles). Her level 4 green ability does 405 damage for 15 green tiles and at level five this increases to +25% base damage. Granted upgrading her abilities cost hero gold. Then I dropped $5 for more hero cash, in hopes of getting a Thor green or yellow. What happened after one Thor pull and two gold packs? 2 Thor Red and 1 Bagman Purple.

You can get missions that drop Thor green and yellows in the Oscorp mission line 'Impostors Assemble'. I know the rating says Impossible, but you get levelled Wolverines and Black Widows in those, so just throw in your strongest character as a third and you'll be good. You do need to unlock it first though. Good luck!

Looking at what you get back for selling a character, it looks like it just multiplies the current level times 100 ISO on 1 star characters. and 125 per level for 2 star. It doesn't matter what the heck you trained them with so if you use a cover to increase the skills you don't get anything back if you see it unless you level up (and of course leveling up costs more than what you would get back anyway). I just feel silly having 2 different storms I have both leveled up. I would have kept selling off all those modern covers if I knew.

Pyros and grenaders deal massive damage. Iron man and Thor will also set off the counter attack unless your fighting a newbie team.

I don't not like her because she's not a good character, she just doesn't fit my playstyle or the within the team of characters I prefer. I don't sell her off because she's not Hawkeye bad, I was just idly thinking it'd be pretty cool to trade the covers to someone like yourself who likes and uses her for a character I like and use.

He'd certainly be a lot more improved if his Stun Arrow dealt damage and placed a 4-round stun tile, or stunned and placed a 4-round damage tile, or if his purple also reduced some of the damage dealt to him before passing it on to the rest of your team. Hawkeye Classic is almost beyond saving as he's not even worth taking the minute you get four characters, let alone once you have two star characters.

I'm curious what team of mine it keeps sending to fights, because someone beat met that I fought back against who had the lvl 2 Thor, lvl 8 Black Widow, and a level 12 Modern Storm. My go-to Thor team is a 30's Iron Man, 6 Thor, 10 Classic Storm.

I woke up and got pummeled by 5 people while I was sleeping. Yesterday I started doing all the fights that I was underpowered for. Use one storm and my own lvl 3 Thor and then kill off all but their overpowered ironman. Then use the Thor they provide, the other storm and whoever else to beat the ironman. The "beat within 3" doesn't reset their health, it just gives you whatever was left after the first try.

Keep in mind that they're not fighting you, they're fighting the default AI that happens to be using one of your teams. It makes a big difference when your team doesn't understand L-shapes and prioritizes off-color 4-matches over colors your big skills need. Also I am so glad I won't be fighting Daken again for a while because jesus is he annoying with skill pop-ups every turn.

Classic storm is great for defending yourself overnight or whatever. People nuke you and take hundreds of damage to each character. Seems like most opponents haven't figured out focus firing her down.

This is true - I automatically skip anything with three 1k+ hp people just because it takes ages to maybe scrape out a win, compared to just fighting teams worth single digits who are weak enough to fight multiples of without healing.

SynthOrange posted:The only solution to that is to make your team too scary looking to bother with. This is an interesting point - I've noticed that whenever I come across a team with say, 4* Wolverine, I just skip it automatically. Yet I have that character myself, and never use him because he's only got one skill which is pretty poo poo compared to say Storm or Thor, even though at level 1 he's got over 1k HP and double digit dmg in three colours. Do you guys look at the star ratings and just go "gently caress that" or do you look at the skill colours and decide whether to bother? (obviously if there's a 4* that's actually levelled up, then gently caress that entirely)

If they have four digit hit points, have multiple levels and have lots of skills, I'm skipping them for easy pickings. If its a team with Level 2 Thor, Black Widow, Modern Storm or Hawkeye, it's go time. The win amount obviously comes into play too. If I'm only getting one shield out of it then gently caress that fight.

I haven't had too much problem with them lately. One team had a level 28 Iron Man but the other characters were so-so. I squeaked out a win on the first or second try on a few of those. But now I am working for the next few days and probably won't play a whole lot like I was on my day off. At least I'll get 500 iso or something.

Yikes.. that could be the reason I keep getting trounced. Sometimes if I fail a fight on the last opponent, I just come back with the free Thor they give you, plus like Hawkeye and Black Widow just to polish off the last guy.

I just destroyed by a similar team. I wiped the weakies in ten turns, then Thor decides it's COMBO TIME and had all three powers going in a whirlwind of sodomy to wipe my whole team in one turn. I guess you should always make sure the Thor you take on DOESN'T have all three powers.

What made it worse was it was my second try, only Thor was left and he already had half his hitpoints gone. AI managed to pull of a ton of combos and then blam! power time, and my entire team was down.

Last night I spent 3 hours playing and wasn't attacked once, then put the game down and immediately got curbstomped. Do attacks only happen while you're out of battle? Because that could be helpful if you're trying to cling to a ranking and don't care about the battery of your phone. Money troubles: Can you still get paired with scrub teams in SHIELD Versus when you're relatively high level?

They don't - I was really chuffed to finish up a fight and hit 500 for my card earlier in the week and immediately after the ISO reward I got a notice saying I'd been attacked and lost enough points to force me to have another battle to hit 500. Your reward points even seem to suffer from this - one of my matches I started was for 28 points and when I finished it I only got 12, presumably because they'd scraped their way up and stopped playing then gotten dogpiled by people like me seeing a weak team worth decent points.

Focusing on the tournament has helped beef up my team. I broke 500 and got the Thor green I was missing. It gave me enough covers and iso to level up and go back to doing the normal missions.
