    There were some truly crazy scores in my queue once I neared 1000 0_0
    Hit Nazerith with his 1600 points twice - second time was because I got hit during the first match and didn't make it to the desired 1000 points, and shielded for the rest of the tourney which I wouldn't do normally for covers I already have maxed, but I have literally nothing to spend on atm, barring Scumbag Daken covers, which I'm not gonna buy yet until they award him again or something. And I would rather mindlessly grind LRs then be annoyed at constant -40 notifications from being unshielded.
    Hit me if you see me.
    Kiamodo, if you want 1st, go for it, or whoever else is in our bracket.


    So if I pass you in our bracket you won't mind letting me have first. Also Punisher is now My first 141. Finally got a 3* maxed.

    congrats to you on getting your first 141! I know it's a pain and seems near impossible to get that first one.
  • I see you up here bowgentle. Are you going for first or just top 5?

    I don't know what has changed...but I'm sitting at 1388 right now. All nodes....full of 1 point matches. Pairing me to teams with no points, or less than 200 points....1* low level teams.

    I know Reckless is also seeing much of the same. I know others are too. Taking screen shots of these.

  • I wish I could see that. I'm seeing a wall of maxed 3*s without any of my people over 100.

    It's nice having a L200 Punisher though icon_e_biggrin.gif
    I hate having a L200 punisher because I get more severe post-buff withdrawal with him than with any other character icon_e_sad.gif
    I see what you mean now - I was slightly disappointed he's only 160 something in PVE...

    I appear to have wound up in an unlazy bracket this time. The top 10 are only 600-800 points but my 490 only puts me in about 75th so I'm expecting a hard fight in the last couple of hours. It was nice to open up to three defensive wins and no losses for a change though. Free points are always nice icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Hardeeharhar twysta..lol.

    You're probably right though. I'm sure it's "working as intended".

    Ran into this too. It forced me to shield when i didnt want to because 19/20 times were worth less than 5 pts while the others were Flo and NAzerith (40+ pts). They likely think I had it out for them with how much I hit them.
  • Its nothing new but I'm also seeing 1 pt only. I guess the only difference is sometimes I get 4 pt targets. Saw reckless at 4 pts earlier and hit her... Couldn't help myself

    Actually got bacon magic (the seed team) floating in my queue earlier. That was odd.

    I've seen some extremely odd stuff in regards to server issues that I won't get into.

    Only want top 5 and hope to hold it, so go for it.
    Edit: well, there's an X-Men member in 2nd.

    There's been a known "thing" where it seems like if your MMR gets high enough it "loops back around" to seed teams and underleveled 1* teams, I haven't seen it happen in quite a while though
  • Man I hate this gsme sometimes. No attacks all night. Playing one more game before shielding and bed and come out to to 4 attacks and a loss of 125 pts. Why is this even possible? This is what needs fixing. Not healing. Not character levels.
  • This pvp is always like this, everyone and their dog had a minimum level 150 punisher. Far less scare factor and people are bolder than normal. Points will be very flat at the end unless you got shield hopping whales in your bracket.

    Having a high level Punny makes Hulk less of a deterrent too.

    Sidenote: Anyone else seeing lots of X-Farce turn up? I've seen at least five of them so far...

    T5 only, with the least amount of shielding possible.

    Trying to figure out the optimal team composition for this one on defense. I'm thinking Punisher/Daken/Hulk would do pretty well in this tournament. Everyone has a punisher so they want to match green, which means you get a ton of free Daken tiles. Hulk also makes molotov a nogo due to his passive so that seems pretty sweet too. Thoughts on whether or not theres a better defensive team? (NOT including Sentry, since he's not fair).

    I'm quite partial to hood as a defensive character especially when using low ability cost characters, hopefully by the time he's dead, he will have helped your defensive team use their cheap green, blue, black and red abilities while delaying your attackers abilities. Also.. rainbow coverage on matches.

    I've been picking up a surprising number of wins with Psylocke/CMags (both at about L110) - whether that's an optimal defence team or not is entirely debatable icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I was thinking about Hood/LT, but I'm not too sure if he's better than Daken/Hulk in this particular tournament due to my earlier points of Hulk dissuading molotovs and Daken generating strike tiles on green, which is definitely the most prioritized color when you have a buffed up punpun.
  • I'm using Punisher/Daken/Magneto and getting some defensive wins. It seems like Daken can easily bring people to a range where Retribution can kill them, so it's okay to save up for it but if not, spamming Magnetized Particles + Daken + possible Judgment is even better. Normally this setup would be vulnerable against Hulk on defense (way too easy to feed them Anger) but Punisher gets all of Hulk's colors if he's high enough, and I'll take my chances if Punisher is downed.
