Most of my alliance is rooted in 3* land and we're all thrilled because now we get to use all the old characters that have been sitting on our bench for ages. I would love PvPs like this to happen more often. At the very least, it's been active for 45 minutes - maybe give it at least an hour before you whine about it, eh?

But personally, I would rather have seen a 'stars limit'-type tourney that has been suggested by other forumites in the past, I think that would make for more interesting roster compositions and experimentation than just kicking every maxed character up to 270.

As part of the secret ScAvengers initiation ceremony, our previous glorious leader, the Snikrot formerly known as Emeryt, made us swear to only dress in sackcloth and ashes from that day forth, and to fill the skies with the sound of our wailing and gnashing of teeth. We carry on this proud tradition in his name.

But this event is already pretty similar to a star limit because you're going to have a 1* (Storm or Jugg), and you're going to have a 2* (OBW) plus whoever else you think will compliment the team the best. Although it's not a star limit per se, Storm/Jugg/OBW are pretty much no brainers for top picks in this event that it's basically the same as if you've to use lower star characters as would be the case in a star limited event, except picking them isn't a handicap in this case.
