All championed All rostered and at various stages of ripeness (except Bagman) Future plans The changes in Pve have made it more appealing to play, so I've been playing a bit less pvp and still managing to hit 1000 regularly thanks to the significantly straightened 4* champ roster, so more of the same for now.

Not close to championing any of them, OML is still my only somewhat usable one (2/2/2 at 315), and I mainly just use him for PVE, where he does wonders :). Ironman does now have 4 covers (2/1/1) but I think it's still to early to put ISO in him and use him. Still missing On the 4-star-front, I've had a bit more progress. I've added Cyclops to my 4-star champs, so now five in total: I've now cover-maxed 3 more 4-stars, so 4 in total that aren't champed yet: Elektra is closest to being champed (at 215) but I'm working on Antman instead since I've got a cover in my queue. It will be close- i've got 10 days to bring him from 186 to 270. I'm still missing one cover for Rulk, so after Antman I will work on getting him to 250 so that it will be easier to get him to champ level once i get that last cover. I finally got a cover for , about a year after i've had him at 0/5/5. Hopefully it doesn't take as long to get the last two. I'm really hoping Hulkbuster and Cyclops are not on the list of 4-stars to be nerfed I also am now only missing Mr. Fantastic and Howard as 4-stars, which was on purpose. With my luck Mr. **** will get buffed and actually be good. On the 3-star front, not much has changed. Still have 37 champs, with a few approaching level 200. My non-champs are still I ended up selling and re-starting sentry and quicksilver for ISO. Don't have any current plans to champ these 3 any time soon. A lot of changes on the 2-star front. I've started my 2-star farm and ended up recycling OBW. I currently have 7 2-stars champed: OBW, Moonstone and Ms. Marvel will probably be next, with Torch, Bullseye and Daken to be last. All are cover-maxed but not level-maxed-champed. The only missing 2-star is Bagman. If i have extra HP for another roster spot i'll add him, otherwise, i'm not too worried about not having him ;) Overall, at my last update I came in at SL 60. I've since progressed to SL 64 and will probably hit 65 early next week. Last update is below: vinnygecko wrote: It's been about a month since my last check-in, thought I'd update after today's huge influx of ISO :) I now have four 4*s champed, adding Hulkbuster, XFW and Fury to Lady Thor. 4* Cyclops is now cover maxed and will be my next 4* to champ (got his cover after I spent all the ISO). After him I'll be working on Rulk, X-23, Kingpin and XFDP if I can ever find his red covers. IM40 and Rags are now champed, leaving just 3 more 3*s to go (Sentry, Quicksilver and Doc Oc). Quicksilver will probably be next since he's cover-maxed. I've recycled 2* Champs and am currently rebuilding Storm, Mags and Ares. I might recycle OBW if I have the patience to not sell her covers for ISO. So far my only loss in DDQ Clash for this round gas been Mr Fantastic. I got so annoyed at the time, I ended up selling him for ISO, and don't really regret it. For 5*s I'm missing Hulk and Black Bolt. For 4*s I'm still missing Winter Soldier, War Machine, Kate Bishop and now Spiderwoman. Last update is below vinnygecko wrote: Ok, so 2 months have passed since last check-in. As far as my previous goals: 1) Got my Hulkbuster up to 250. Just waiting for that last cover, which should come soon as my IF is at level 182 (one shy of HB). 2) Championed my first 4* with 4hor! I was very excited about this as it was a long time coming. For my other 4*s I wanted to get to 200, Cyclops is very close (197 at 5/4/3) but the rest have been a bit slower. 3) Still undefeated on the 3rd cycle of Clash of the Titans, though I had to bring Flaptain up to 180 to do so. Biggest test will be coming up soon with Mr. Fantastic (5/1/4 @ 130, really hoping to not put more ISO into him). 4) My IM40 rebuilding project is going well, just need one more cover to be cover-maxed. Champing Hawkeye was a big help with this. 5) I got one more cover for OML, so he's now at 2/2/2, but I've kept him at 315. Now have at least one cover for all 5*s except for Hulk. 6) Still no 4* covers for War Machine, Winter Soldier, Spider Gwen or Kate Bishop.

I use him all of the time, even over my champed Surfer, since his purple is so good for beating OML/PHX teams. But I hate giving up 36 LT draws just for 1 guaranteed cover. It doesn't matter right now anyway since I only have 550 or so CP. Another factor is the dilution of 5*s in the Classic pulls. With 7 5*s in those tokens, the chance of me getting a BSS green is only 0.7%. If they split the 5*s into 3 or more groups, then I'd be more likely to draw it out instead of whaling the covers.

Special pre-anniversary edition of the roster report today because I hit my goal of 720 CP. My plan was to whale some green covers for Black-Suit Spidey but I changed my mind. Don't get me wrong, Spidey is a phenomenal character and the answer to the OML/PHX meta right now. But I can already easily reach 1200 in every PvP with my OML/level 420 Spidey, so why waste all of the CP on 1 cover? So I opened up my entire hoard of CP. After all of the champ rewards and extra CP were collected, I opened 39 Classic/Latest Legendary tokens. I ended up with 2 Surfer, 1 Green Goblin, 1 IM46 and 2 5Cap for 6/39 5*s - right on par with what I should get. As far as 4*s were concerned, I sold the ones where I only had 1 cover and no chance of champing them anytime soon - Star Lord, FalCap, PX, Spider Gwen. With the re-work of Cho and the amount of him covers floating around, I decided to champ him. Good choice! I don't care for him as a character, but I ended up with 9 extra covers for him in this last 2 weeks. That's a lot of nice rewards. So left in my queue are 4 Elektra covers and 3 Invisible Woman covers. I'm well on my way on champing Elektra, she's level 262 already. But I opened up an anniversary 10-pack and got 2 Dino covers. He's already max covered, so I may have to champ him too before getting to IW. I don't know if that's possible, even with double ISO week coming up, but we'll see. So to recap, my last/next 4* champ targets are Cho, Elektra, Devil Dino and Invisible Woman. Am I crazy? Those are all bad characters! Yes, that's true, but at this point in my development, non-top-10 4*s are pretty much irrelevant except for champion rewards. If I have the extra covers for them, then why waste them? The only 4*s that are somewhat relevant that I don't have champed right now is Punisher Max and Peggy, but my Peggy only has 7 covers.

Black Bolt 0/1/1 +1 Widow - 0 :( Collected like this, it looks like I had a good season... but most came late. actually got 3 in the past 2 days, and this included cp and lts from last season, so I was feeling a little bummed for a while for most of the season. Broke my no BSS streak at last! Not having widow is sad! Post Shield Ranks, I opened my hoard and champed Kingpin and XFW as the last of my 4* outliers at level 200, plus Falcap, I'm not sure why. Think I had a few of his covers lying around? Added Thing to my champs because one of my alliancemates loves Thing. Up to 20 4*s champed, just covered Kate and Bucky to leave me with 14 fully covered underlevelled 4*s and Peggy, Janet and Marc short of just 1/2/2 covers to max respectively. Had a really great run of usable 4* covers in the past week, 4 MKs in about 2 days? Jessica stalled at 2/3/2 but I'm feeling really good about my progress in this tier. Planning to champ dino for anniversary, but it's hard resisting the lure of champing more 4*s before their covers expire... In the epic battle between IF and Mororo, things looked dark for a while with Mororo, Hulk and Rags all storming past poor IF with the help of my 2* farm and event rewards. IF struggled and kept close on their heels, determined not to give up. Then divine dev intervention! IF covers for BOP! Now he sits smugly ahead of the rest (233) at 235 with his pvp progression cover still to come. SW managed to gain a few covers this season, but still lagging at 197, with the next lowests well ahead at 203. 2* farm all churning well due to playing more lighting rounds than usual for a data collection thing, and all the 10 packs saved and earned. Ms Marvel and Hawkeye almost ready to go to market... PS: I got 2 bagmans this season. TWO. ***** Time to hoard again, for the new characters that we will no doubt be flooded with for anniversary. Looking forward to anniversary as well, the new direction for mpq is feeling good so far. :)
mckauhu wrote: Well once again change in plans. After last post, I added and champed also Moonstone and don't regret it since they (2*'s) are great source for iso8, HP and CP aswell tokens. About to champion Deadpool 3* too, but no rush with it yet. Added Miles Morales to roster. But now if there won't be new 4-stars, I'm sticking with the plan adding also remaining 2*'s Ares and baby cap to my roster - and then finally new characters. However if I happen to come by 4-stars once again, they are first priority and 5-stars are even above them. Not opening heroic / LT nor use CP until I have roster spot open since there just might come 4-star which i don't yet have and I want.
amusingfoo1 wrote: Have made some detours. BSS is up to 435, but the detour was championing Psylocke, Punisher, and Colossus. My 2* farm has somewhat stalled out because of that, but it'll get moving again very soon. So, nudge that forward, then finish BSS. Then...? Black Bolt finally has a green cover, and IM46 has a fifth red, but both are still unleveled. Either might be useful. None of the remaining 4*s are screaming out to me in needing to be championed, aside from the champion progression benefits. The only remaining 3* who feeds a 4* that I have championed is Sentry, so... maybe? In terms of summary, I'm up to 16.7M in roster ISO, with 6.5M needed for my remaining fully-covered characters (though Wasp is only one cover away from adding 370k to that). Despite the improvements, I'm still just under 22k total levels, perhaps because of selling 2*s (as I said, stalled, with three waiting for ISO to be re-championed). And it occurred to me this morning that I haven't championed a 4* since the ISO influx. Not sure if that's good or bad.
