    Huh... mine only got a 1 level buff.

    Looks like it's a proportional buff.

    10 -> 15
    11 -> 17
    40 -> 60

    Yeah, it looks like the buff is half of the existing level. Level 40 Juggs = 20 level buff. Maxed 2* receive a 47 level buff. My 120 CMags has a 60 level buff.

    Hmm, didn't think I tried that hard, but managed a top 10 finish (ok #9 and 98 points shy of #5).

    Sentry, Loki, Hood turned out to be a fine team for this event despite no Active Blue abilities. More defensive wins than losses. Now my Captain Marvel is only a Black or Yellow cover away from 13 covers.

    I know. It's the same % buff featured characters get in PVP. I was making a joke that my Juggernauts are level 1. He's great for team-ups, and aside from that, the only use they get is tanking, and when he's buffed in Balance of Power, where having him at level 1 is better than level 40.

    Loki was my MVP this round. So many Daken's and Magneto's... ripe for some mischief icon_twisted.gif

    Also, even buffed, Sentry still sucked. How far he has fallen.

    This was my favorite event so far. I should have been top 25 but choked at the end and ended 27th. Stayed unshielded for one fight too long. My roster isn't good enough for top 50 finishes, but **Daken and Ares + a lvl 78 Loki did some serious damage. It was fun.

    Apparently MPQ wants me to join the side of evil. This Nefarious Foes event resulted in my best ever PVP finish (admittedly, in the easiest grouping I've been a part of since Squirrel Girl was the prize and no one seemed to care) and the Prodigal Sun event from a few months ago (with Elektra as the prize) was my best ever PVE finish. Who knew that not selling off Moonstone when I was debating it earlier would pay off so well?

    Not surprisingly, the new PVP with IF as the prize isn't quite going as smoothly, but I guess anything I get in PVP is a bonus with my roster icon_e_smile.gif

    It was nice to feel like I could compete, but I did get incredibly lucky in joining slice 4 with an hour left and just hitting everything I could with either LDaken/Ares/Loki or rotating in Doom and CMags as needed just for variety and some modest healing.

    Managed to finish at #7, which was by a wide margin my best finish. Most of the time these days I am lucky to break into the top 100 and often get slapped way down. But getting the progression rewards and the placement rewards this time out was nice.

    Sadly, I know this success is, at best, very rare. And I'm sure it won't be an option when Danny is the prize.

    Ok, ok, I give up. I was trying to get Starlord without shielding, but you guys win. Looks like it ain't gonna happen this time.

    I have never seen so many Moonstone/Daken/Ares teams before in the game. I guess I should be grateful as I didn't see many 3 star.png teams until I reached 400. I can't say it was my favorite AP. In general, I dislike events that feature many buffed characters because it makes the game a Russian roulette. One freak cascade can wipe your entire team. I don't have many villains leveled high because I don't use them often, but I managed to squeeze a #10 in the last 2 minutes. I am not even sure why I tried as I will probably sell Captain Marvel (2/1/4) at some point in the near future.
