    I was losing this one, when Bagman added 4 to their own Flame Jet countdown. I needed a visa to match it and Torch was invisible. Bagman is the best - he can't even use his powers correctly.

    I finally used Switcheroo for the first time while burning off Team Ups I didn't want. Pretty nice power. If I get another, I'll keep it as a toolbox item.

    That was at 192

    A 166 torch does 5k for 8 red and gains two back (effective cost 6)

    Deadpool isn't always guaranteed to do max damage

    Pretty balanced IMO

    It is nice, but costs way too much.

    Seriously with the boosted Hawkeye Modern??? I hate that dude. I even am willing to try him, but he keeps putting the CD tiles right where they'll be matched!!! Useless!!! You think they'll buff him half way through this event so he becomes an actual playable character?? Other than that...I wish every node had a Deadpool Team up.....sad face icon_e_sad.gif

    That's why you wait to use the skill when there are reds and blues scattered on the board. And when respective red/blue users are dead or nonexistent.

    I've actually never quite gotten why people think MHawkeye is underpowered. He murders the **** out of stuff for me and jumps out of the way to make removing his CD tiles extra hard.

    And you can set him up to shove a true healer in the way like Patch or Astonishing Wolverine, and I've been using Hood's black skill to set off MHawkeye's timer tile.
  • Man, doing a pass through these nodes turns most of my roster into mulch. Not sure why 40-50 lvl characters are hurting my 90-135 toons so much.

    ... and that node 'Logan's Heroes'... what a pain in the bum. It takes ages just for c.mags to resolve all his moves. Option to turn animations off please! Ugh. I don't see myself placing well in this if it is this hard on my roster and it's only scaled just a little so far.

    Aw man, I just played the Storm-BP node, and killed them both, ready to mop up the analyst.
    ...
    Then she used Demolition with the AP BP had gotten last turn.
    Oh come on that's ****, why can goons use TU AP?

    Hahahahaha, I love how Deadpool leans so heavily on the fourth wall. Bagman hatred <3
  • This PvE has so much funny dialogue, and the way Deadpool's depiction in the team assembling menu or whatever to call it changes too. Not to mention the funny sub background. Nice one, devs! Love it!

    How is that Whales thing supposed to work? If you buy hero points, there'll be more whales?

    Not really, Black Panther is more effective as he can hit all three characters for 12 AP. Deadpool is capped at 3.5K at lvl 190 ish, no where near being OP. Wolverine Patch can one shot any character if the entire board bears his icon. The list goes on... In fact his purple ability is probably more effective than his red.

    So aside from the fact that I'm going to need to grind the event into oblivion, I'm loving it. The writing is fun, playing as Deadpool is fun (wish there were more chances), and even his map is fun.

    I really wish I could have a wallpaper of his map, or even a collage of Deadpool artwork. A lot of the artwork in this game is really fantastic (not you Sue) and I'd love to be able to sport it as a desktop or a theme for my phone/ipad.
  • Interesting event, so far.

    Very good opportunity to collect team-ups from pretty much anyone a player wants, so take advantage of it while everyone can.

    That said, I'd like to keep spinning on my heels and say "There no such thing as confirmation bias cascades! There no such thing as confirmation bias cascades!"....

    ... tinykitty my ****. I need to go buy some Powerball tickets if a had a "random" fight where the AI scored SEVEN "L" or "T" critical generating matches, on some moves in cascading succession. Nope, purely random.... icon_evil.gif

    -- Being on the wrong side of Fury's Demolition sucks. The AI seems to love to immediately match off the traps to inflict half damage on the player.

    -- Analysts also suck. As feared, they create Team-Up tiles. With a cost of 5 for Media Cover, the analyst can spam this move like crazy. icon_e_sad.gif

    -- Poor Bagman... he tries, but gets no respect from anyone.... icon_lol.gif

    This event makes even less sense than most. I don't get how it's supposed to be Deadpool vs MPQ but most all of the fights Deadpool isn't involved in, yet he chimes in after as if he were. Makes as much sense as not giving us a way to get rid of unwanted Team-Ups.
  • Deadpool's red does the lesser of 65% of their current HP or the maximum listed damage, so it can't ever kill anyone without strike tiles involved. The damage he does is considerable, but still around Fireball range and the inability to finish someone off is significant in this game.

    Hoo-wee, that last node is not to be underestimated! Nearly got wiped when the goon generated the 19 for Widow, then ol' Nickie got a ridiculous cascade, bringing him to twelve purple. All my characters just barely survived, but I managed to pull victory from the brink of defeat. Very fun!
  • Lol, what was that about there being no rubberbanding? There most definitely is!

    Yeah, I noticed it too. And I was so worried that there would be no rubberbanding so I entered quite early and grinded verry late last night. Oh, well... icon_e_confused.gif

    It's odd that the main brackets are 500, but the sub is 1000.

    Any news on the mysterious deadpool points yet?

    This. Anyone figure this out yet? (meaning the Deadpool points mentioned in Deadpool's purple whale power that seem to be completely unrelated to the deadpool pve points)
