    I am now sad, they added teamups and removed environments so I can no longer run my insane forest -mstorm -obw -bullseye team in balance of power. That was the absolute most fun I had had in ages, but doesn't work so good without the forest...

    Whew - She-Hulk prizes. That means I can focus on PVE. I've got her cover-maxed.

    Huh, that's a nice twist. All characters are boosted to level 270 exactly, so relative power levels are determined solely by the number of covers you have. This'll be fun!

    So uhm... yeah. Everyone is 270 regardless of base levels? I guess that means my 5/5 level 1 Juggernaut gets to skip his 18k ISO meal.

    I also have a level 1 juggernaut with 5/5 and I was debating whether to put 18k iso into him specifically for balance of power. Welp.

    In other news, I have 18 hours to find myself 10 Juggernaut covers. Watch all my standard tokens give me 3* I already maxed now icon_e_wink.gif

    This was me two weeks ago after the Combined Arms tournament. It seemed they would runs these types of events after each Season so I wanted Juggernaut to be ready. Added bonus that I don't have to wait until end of Season 5 to break him out icon_cool.gif

    Great job devs!
    Obviously we didn't use enough health packs when only maxed chars we're buffed to 270, so now EVERYONE gets buffed to the max.

    Whoa! So my Juggernaut, Baby Torch, Modern Hawkeye can all theoretically compete since they are cover maxed?? Level 1 Juggernaut FTW I guess icon_e_confused.gif

    Wait, what? Even the characters who aren't fully covered are 270? This is going to be insane.

    I have no idea what team to play now. On the other hand, lots of choices.

    Yep. My 0/5 loaner MBW can get in there as well.
    Seems like an advantage to have fully covered unleveled characters since they'll be back at full health very quickly.

    Didn't even think of that! This PVP will be insane...

    Everyone at level 270 is pretty insane, but that means you can also just literally anybody on your roster that you have covers for.

    Really? You're complaining when the amount of usable characters for this pvp is through the roof? I think this is the first PvP where I don't even care what covers I get, i'm just excited to play.

    I can't wait to run rosters of Rags, 2* Daken, Loki and Doom. The 2 powered villains will have their revenge!

    It's a shame the prize is just She-Hulk, but yeah, it will be fun to play. I wish I had open roster spots so I could toss a few random L1s in there...

    I have to admit it's pretty clever to put Nick Fury as the prize for this. Normally if you put Fury it'd just be a battle for the haves, but since everyone is boosted to level 270 all you need is money to compete for him! With the level 270 structure, the usual powerhouses aren't nearly as insurmountable as normal. Sentry can't even reliably kill Juggernaut with a World Rupture + Sacrifice combo, and if we're talking about massive boosting then Juggernaut starting with 6g + 6r can immediately rip apart Sentry's support whether it's The Hood or OBW or even Daken.
