So, what time do the new token compositions go live? Is it when the new PVP starts? I've got 600+ Standards, 119 Heroics, and 4 Heroic 10-packs and I'm jonesing for a token fix, man.

    I opened some packs and measured like 5 secs per token. That grants you 50 minutes of nonstop standard token action!

    Seems to imply that the new Tokens will kick off along with the new season. I started stashing my heroics after the announcement. So far I have 9 singles, and 1 ten pack. I always cash in Standards because they are always Iso.

    Off Topic: Isn't the Q&A also supposed to be today? The thread was opened a month ago, and has been locked for two weeks now.

    Opening anniversary tokens has been like throwing confetti since LRs started, I don't even care for other tokens anymore lol.

    Good idea!
    When sometimes you feel like the game is not rewarding you can head over to youtube and get yourself 50min. Tokenporn.
    I'll sub for sure.

    Yes!

    And with post token analysis

    "That's five Venoms in a row, Michael, what are the chances of that happening?"

    Do people want to see what I pull? I could just copy my roster spreadsheet to track them easily enough. I'm not going to do pick by pick, but I'll probably open them in batches, and can post those if people want to see.

    Not too interested in your results, but in the process! icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I'm more curious how long it will take.

    I'm actually interested, yeah!

    I mean, besides the fact that you'll contribute a huge amount to the standard token tracking thingy, it's just neat to find out what people did!

    Post your results and we will make a drinking game out of it. Every time you pull a 3* we drink.

    And every time you pull a 3* that you don't need, but I need, I will hit my screen.

    And every time you pull a 3* that was supposedly rotated out, we all run to the forums with our torches and pitchforks. icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Just for the sake of whatever, this is my current need list:

    X-Force: 1 Green (respec)
    Invisible Woman: 2 Green
    Captain Marvel: 1 Yellow (respec)
    Classic Magneto: 2 Red (respec)
    Lazy Storm: 1 Yellow (respec)
    Colossus: 2 Black, 1 Red
    Deadpool: 1 Red
    Beast: 1 Blue, 3 Green
    Doctor Octopus: 3 Black, 1 Blue, 1 Green
    Nick Fury: A lot (he's currently 1/1/1)
    Devil Dinosaur: 2 Red, 2 Green (assuming top 100 alliance and the daily rewards I get in about 3 weeks)(also, probably not in token pool)

    So 17 3*s (4 of which are respec), and 17 4*s (one of which is respec, and 4 of which probably aren't in the token pool).

    I'm being devil's advocate here now, but, wouldn't it be better to wait and see if Thoress will be added to the tokens anytime next month?

    I calculated out that under the current pack percentages, I have about a 5.9% chance (in a 10-pack, less in a singleton) of pulling something that I need. I'm kind of curious what that will look like after the rotation (since all the 2-power 3*'s are being replaced by 3-power 3*'s, I can't really do the calculations before-hand). But I suspect that I'll be back up into the double digits for pulling something I need.

    My stratagy now is to save the heroics and open them at the start of a season. That way I always have a chance at pulling the freshly added guys.

    I thought someone said the release was going to be similar to Fury's, which means waiting more than 3 months. So probably not worth waiting.
