Is there some sort of rubberbanding where if you are ranked lower, you get more points? Really don't understand how they are gaining points so much faster than me.

It's ridiculous. What sort of teams are people using for this event? I've usually been going with something like OBW/Thor/BP, but I keep getting screwed over by that stupid Sniper.

For all the ones with snipers, I'm flying the falcon - redwing is faster than those countdowns.

It was completely rigged to the point that it was obvious I was never going to win that game. I did one move, and then the enemy got the perfect cascade that killed one member of my party (first turn) then covered the board in Strike Tiles that I couldn't do anything about and loaded Rags up with Red and Green AP. And then every time he cleared those two center columns, there was always a green match to make more Strike Tiles. It was almost laughable. Maybe they have a system to make it happen more often if you aren't buying Health Packs.

Magneto managed to prevent the spankings from turning into wipeouts but I certainly wouldn't be surprised if I died on those nodes while trying to clear them as fast as possible. You probably should use boosts for an enemy composition of The Hunt's calibur if you do not have the time to thoroughly evaluate the board or have a bailout hero like Magneto.

Zero boosts and health pack used, barely scratched really. And no immediate round 2 -- guess a heroic starts tomorrow for Ms. Marvel.
