    Why would offering 4*s for T5 make brackets saner? We already have brackets where the cutoff for T5 is north of 1500, this would only make it worse.

    Perhaps it's wishful thinking, but it spreads out their availability and over time would have the desired effect as more top tier players max cover 4*'s. Then, getting top 10 not as bad since you'd get three 3* covers that could be sold for the iso needed to build the 4*'s. But I understand that competition will always be fierce for top 5, this is more a suggestion to make 4*'s more available and easier to transition into. One cover at number 1 still drives crazy competition, I just think everyone that can hit 1100 would still have a shot at top 5 if not in the rare hell bracket you describe.

  • People have serious denial about their iso spending habits when I keep on see guys with 10 166s saying "I can't imagine how people have enough iso to max a 4*, that's like maxing 3 level 166s!"

    The iso needed to max these characters isn't a problem because the game doesn't give you much reason to max them in the first place. If there was a significant advantage to having a balanced roster but there is not. Since the 4* isn't any more likely to be featured you're going to need at most 2 4*s which is equivalent of 6 3*s, which is a decent amount but certainly there are plenty of people with such number of characters maxed.
  • Also x-force has all three covers from daily rewards decently early on so those wishing to sink some cash into the game can cover him out and then use him to fill out the rest of their roster. I have seen worse plans for how to succeed at MPQ than to bet all on X.

    Don't waste iso hopping to 2k pts in every pvp ;)
