I imagine a lot of people will get to like the mid 1000s pretty easily now and will now actually consider buying more HPs (or at least spending stockpiled HPs) to make a push for 2400. In the last tournaments, there's obviously no way anyone would be tempted to go for 2400 unless you were able to abuse a bagman team (and in that case you never needed to shield anyway). Faith restored.

Faith restored. I dunno, combined with the restored 100 HP at 1k, it could easily just be a mistake copy pasting it

I wont be leveling patch much since my xforce is already...too high level...and just waiting to be made useful.

Just a thought, though if that's the case it might not be the best comparison if demand for Punisher is less than for Patch (which I would expect given there have been more chances to get Punisher covers, but who knows?)

Still debating whether or not to level up patch: I don't think he adds too much to my 3* roster, since I'm set on punisher and hulk. Still debating whether or not to level spidy, I'm guessing that its fine since the nerf isn't for a while, and his low hp is a huge issue right now.

My Punisher is 70 so I might ISO pump him (though I feel like I should save some for Patch...) but I have no idea who to pair with Punisher.
