Using MNM, Storm and Hawkeye. 10k Damage on Speedshot. Polarity Shift can often trigger two 5-matches. So much fun .

Edit: wonder if that's how Sentry bombing feels... except I don't even damage myself.

Using Thor/BP/Juggs for defense. Climbed mostly with Patch-BabyDaken-Psylocke or Sentry-BabyDaken-Falcon, both of which are pretty fun.

I think this event is dead to me. My first match, I used Venom, Juggs and Spiderman. I ended up devouring a full health Hulk. It can only go down from there. Plus the rewards and ISO are far better in the Lightning rounds, that will be running the entire length of this blah event.

The only reason to go on is if I had a chance at the 3000 progression reward in season, but I don't as an average of 1000, is pushing it on normal events for me, as I don't really shield. Furthermore, when you combine it with Balance of Power and Combined Arms, the fights take to long and the retaliations far more violent. Yeah I'm better off going for the Lightning Round ISO and top 5 finishes.

I will try OBW, Hood, mStorm a few times. Go the intense AP denial/generation + some healing route. Have to work bullseye in somewhere for personal pride too.

Bullseye belongs in a team with Falcon and Daken


Or maybe with Colossus and Hawkeye Classic for quad-crit fun!

I won a handful of daken falcon bullseye and some OBW Hood Bullseye matches. I think the latter was actually faster

Having fun once again, switching my team around as I see fit or playing my trusty 2* combo Ares - Thor - Widow for old times' sake.

I appear to have hit the wall. All I am seeing is level 270 everywhere.

That's rough man. Have you tried tanking? Just keep at it until those levels start to come down!

I tried, but nothing seems to work. I think that new patch this morning broke it.

I did my initial climb with Patch, Dakenette, and Bullseye. Very sustainable team. Set up Juggernaut, Black Panther, OBW as my defensive/occasional match team, plus I've used a few other combos. Right now around 340; not enough decent matches to keep going for the time being.

Need about 430 more points for my ten-pack. That's all I really care about here.

Did u get the 10 pack .. I am currently placed below you in our bracket .. I have 250 points more to get my 10 pack ..

Balance of Power almost makes me appreciate Combined Arms.

Man, I hate the grind in this event - although trying out new combinations of characters is fairly amusing.

Yes.

It wasn't worth the effort. Or the expense.

I agree

On the serious side, I hit a wall of fully covered Sentries, he is still deadly.

Anniversary ten pack - you promised so much and delivered so little

Just 101 points needed for my ten pack (currently at 679), but with infrequent playing due to work/family I keep getting knocked back down. Might have to bust out some shields

Unknown

Well, got my Deadpool progression but I think that's all I'm getting. It just takes too long to fight people on 270, and it's not fun. Honestly, the 1*/2* people who voted for this must favour winning over enjoyable gameplay because BoP is just a ridiculous slog. 10 minutes a fight against the same high-health tanks over and over, for 10-20 points a time, assuming you win at all? No thanks.

Got my 10 pack, I'm done unless I drop out of top 100 (currently 7th). Got 9 3* or better in my pack, so I'm pretty happy.

Unknown

Need 851 for the 3k reward. Almost managed to make it to 800 last night, but got pushed back each time. Now hovering around 500-600. Hopefully will be able to get to 851 tonight...

Still not sure of a good defensive team. Left OBW, Hood, Juggs - but the two squishies won't scare off anyone who uses boosts.

Anyone try Colossus+Bullseye yet to get 4 crits for the bargain price of 29 black yet?

Wow, what team is that???

Is there such a thing as good defensive team for this event? You'd have to be ridiculously unlucky not being able to take down any opponent team with a team of Hawkeye + Storm + MM Magneto with even modest boost.
