Why no Blade PvP?

Blade covers for the Doc Ock PvP but 1st place Hulkbuster leads me to believe the Hulkbuster PvP is next. This isn't the first time they have killed a Blade PvP to insert something else, like Balance of Power. So, what do they have against Blade? Why no Blade PvP?

    Hasn't Blade had a couple of PvPs? Mine's been covered for forever, haven't seen Colossus in ages.

    He's been handed out as a placement reward a ton of times, but then the next event is always something weird. The Events sub forum shows High Stakes being run once in season VII (Near when he was released) and once in season X. Every other time he's been booted for something else.
  • He's secretly OP and boosting him in an actual PVP event would put him on the nerf list. icon_e_smile.gif
  • Boosted Blade vs Blade is like two guys playing hot potato with a bomb and while that's pretty exciting, I can do without some excitement.

    Let's see, 290 Blade might be somewhere crazy with purple damage. Already above 2k damage with 6 tiles per turn for 10 AP. Boosted, I can easily see that moving to 3.4k per turn. Yeah, no.

    Yep, no Real Steel in a long time, and Cover Squirrel has been skipped twice as well.

    Are people actually complaining about frequent BJs?

    Man forumites these days.

    You seem to forget that the sweet and gentle vampire (he keeps his enemies close... but just because he wants to give them a hug!) will be boosted for the next 3 events or so.

    He will be handing out those strike tiles like candy!

    Besides, what about poor Iron Fist?

    His event happened only once, after his release.

    Probably giving everyone ample time to purchase his covers since they know how desirable he is. I've been tempted to buy a couple myself but am resisting until his rewards come around again.
