Request a position in a top 100 alliance.

See, I don't want to try and get a spot in one, only to disappoint and be removed from it. So I was seeking advice on how far away I am from being able to seek out a spot in a top alliance to earn covers as prizes?

My roster is
2verine - 5/5/3 - 94
2hor - 3/5/5 - 90
Daken - 5/4/4 - 78
4Verine - 2/0/0 - 70 (planning to buy his covers at 1 every 2 weeks when I get the log in of each of his covers, but that's 60 days away)
Invisible Woman 0/1/0 - 70
The Hood - 1/3/1 - 68 (currently buying his covers to max him out. Next week, he'll be 1/5/1, then two weeks later 3/5/1, then 5/5/1 after 5 weeks total).
Ares - 2/5/5 - 59
Deadpool - 4/0/1
Blade - 2/0/1
Gamora - 1/1/0
Psylocke - 1/1/0
Magneto - 4/5/4 (yes, bad build, but the game won't drop me the cover I need to correct it lol)
Lazy cap - 3/0/0
BP - 1/2/0
Colossus - 0/1/2
Daredevil - 0/2/0
Mystique - 1/0/1
Loki - 0/1/1
Sentry - 0/0/1
Hulk - 0/0/1
Juggernaut - 5/5 - 30
Black Widow - 5/5 - 30
Captain Marvel - 0/5/5
Black Widow (original) - 1/0/4

Performance -
When the rewards are something useful to me, I am always able to get top 100 in pvps. I usually get the 500 progression reward when I'm pushing, but occasionally am shoved back down to ~430-450 after some defeats on defense. If the reward is not something that helps me, I don't participate right now as the transition process is already hard enough. I would be willing to always participate, however, if there was an alliance depending on me.

Pve is a crapshoot for me. Clearly, I don't have an expansive roster. If I have an/the essential(s) I usually rock - grabbing every progression reward and placing top 100 or so in my bracket (in the prodigal sun event, I grabbed the free token for every single sub event). If I lack the essentials, I have to struggle tooth and nail to get the progressions...

I don't guess I'm ready for a top alliance right now, but will I be when I finish The Hood? Will I be more suited in 5 months when I have a cover-maxed X Force?

    It's not always about your roster but your season score.i have players in my alliance with average rosters but great scores.600 + on average would get u into a top 100 alliance if everyone got the same score.

    Yeah, I know it's mostly about score I just didn't know what the benchmark was. I figured if a guy with a team of one stars could consistently grab top 10 in his bracket, he'd be welcome in any alliance. Lol.

    Most top 100 pvp alliances will request at least 600 per pvp to get placement in events and for season overall. If you can get at least 500-600 consistently and also play sim and pve, there are some alliances that can accept that too.

    However, I would recommend you find a top 250 alliance first as the additional hp and iso and sometimes token awards from events will help tremendously while the pressure to perform isn't so much.

    In addition, even if you can't place well in pvp, it is good to try for at least 400 every pvp - you get a heroic token and 25 hp from progression, plus small rewards from placement, all of which will help you build your roster. And that also gets you more valuable season rewards like the heroic 10pack at 4000 points (average 400 per pvp without sim).

    Pve can be hard when you lack characters, but if you play enough to get all the progression rewards there's a lot to be gained as well. There's always iso and tokens in nodes too.

    Good luck.
