Forgetting to swap out the 1 Star Heroes for "Under the Sea" in DDQ and still winning it1

Taco Vault: Savory has a Peggy Yellow cover, mine is 3/4/5. Decided to burn my taco tokens, 61, hoping for that cover and in fear of DPD vault changes. Managed to pull Peggy on my 58th token and she's now my fifth champed 4* character!

Watching someone break shield 8 minutes out from end of R&G to move over the top of me and out of top 25. Me breaking shield less than 4 minutes out with 60 pointer I queued up 4 hours earlier. Winning this with 30 seconds to go to secure my place. They ended up with less points than when they broke shield.
If you are going to do it, do it right.

At least half of the heroics and event tokens pulled on the last 2 days wielded me a 4*.
On the bad side: I still haven't pulled a 4* Bonus Hero since it got introduced

So as someone in the long, long middle of 3*-4* transition, I still rely mostly on threes in PvP. My go-to team is Cap, Hood, and Kamala - the three knocks on Cap are that, while powerful, a) he's slow to get started, b) he's countdown-dependent (and therefore countdown vulnerable, and c) his yellow is laughably unusable. The Hood solves all these problems beautifully, while slowing down the other team and quickening mine. Add in KK and you have a rainbow team that can handle almost any situation, takes down much stronger opponents, and saves on healthpacks and waiting for healing.
In Sim, I came up on a takeable team - 3*Cap and Switch at about the same level, and a Bolt with no black. Even if he did have black, I would have gone for it anyway as I'm running a board control team, but it ended up being darn fortuitous... Though I'm a careful player, and kept Switch's CDs from going off for a while, I soon fell victim to a classic chain of lucky cascades, with Bolt's match damage pummeling an unsuspecting and fragile Hood, and Switch two AP away from a Reality Crush. Despite my best efforts at calculated denial, she finally collected enough and Crushed me, downing Hood and locking up Steve, leaving KK to hold off the storm.
The match was still salvageable, but his Cap was now dangerously close to launching both shields, so I played a tricky game of snatching up red and blue while trying to keep their Incantation from blowing up on me...until they dropped another surprise cascade on me, this time green. So with a mighty Whisper, Bolt knocks his fellow Inhuman into dust, just in time for Steve to thaw from his purple iceberg to find his companions a fine red mist, and his enemies at 3/4 health or more, with a doppleganger on the verge of knocking him back into his icy tomb.
A bad situation for sure, and maybe, just maybe, I thought about giving up - but he'd missed the brunt of the cascades, only really taking the Crush on the chin, and brave Kamala had dutifully gathered up enough red and blue for the Captain to start a-slingin', and if anyone can stare down impossible odds and win, it's Captain America. (Well, also PunisherMAX, but that's more mechanical - well, I guess it's in-character, too...anyhoo...)
So a-slingin' Steve goes! So now, new priorities: 1) don't let Arcane Incantation go off. If I get stunlocked for five turns, I'm toast. 2) Don't let OtherCap start shielding me to death. 3) lock up Bolt. His match damage will whittle me down before I know it, so keep him stunned until I have some Protects out. And that's what I do - overwrite the CD with shields, stunning BB, and red-shielding OtherCap, hoping and praying between countdowns that I dont' get cascaded again (a situation normally Hood makes short work of). I get lucky for just a moment with my own mini-cascade, and mass up some more red and blue, enough to launch another red! Cap throws his new shields (just call him HydraCap, as I suppose he needs a third arm now) to take down Switch, and I'm grinning, seeing the end in sight - until all too late I realize the fatal flaw of careful board control: when you leave your opponents with no options, the board resets - you fool!!
...And of course, the reshuffle leads to OtherCap collecting enough blue to stun me, just as Bolt wakes up again (pleasedontyawnpleasedontyawn), and I can only watch helplessly for two turns as Bolt levels up OtherSteve and starts mashing me with high match damage. Match-4. Triple match. Ouch. Ouch. The Blind Idiot God of AI finally intervenes on my behalf, as with that last match the damn fool OtherSteve matches away his own Peacemaker CD.
My Steve finally gets up, bloody and bruised, and hovering only a little under 2K - any power they fire means my end, and I still have to wait another turn for my CDs to resolve.
Scanning the board carefully, I formulate a desperate plan, and collect a single yellow match. On their turn, as I guessed, they collect a red match 4, knocking me to under1K, and now have enough to redshield me and win on the next turn. And this is where I hit two very rarely used panic buttons - first, that match gave them enough AP for the higher damage of my only effective TeamUp - 5BW's Acrobatic Takedown - to kick in, which I have to use to cut OtherCap down to near death. Then, I stun him, blow the dust off of Sentinel of Liberty, space the Protects carefully (and place one for a match-4 for good measure, and get to work on carving a 10K Black Bolt down to zero. Which after finally redshielding the OtherCap out of the way, and big protects making a joke out of match damage, all I had to do was keep him from Whispering me, and with both shields back that was no problem at all. With something around 600 health left, I won the match, breathed a huuuge sigh of relief, and then decided to tell somebody about it!6 -
I had a great day on cover pulls - got eleven 3*s and six 4*s all on a normal day (only spent 100 HP and 20 CP, didn't cash in a hoard, no PvP ending - though I did get my season 10-pack).
3*s: Iron Man (DDQ), Loki (reached 1200 in SHIELD sim), Scarlet Witch (heroic token from SHIELD intercept), Steve Rogers (season 10-pack), Daredevil (ditto), Spider-Man (PvE progression), Daken (100 HP purchase of daily special from event vault), Thanos (elite token from alliance PvE placement), Black Panther (ditto), 2 Psylockes (bonus heroes on the two elite tokens)
4*s: Wolverine (SHIELD resupply day 150), Hulkbuster (from levelling Iron Man to 183 from DDQ), Blade (season 10-pack), Agent Coulson (classic legends token for 20 CP), Red Hulk (PvE progression), Peggy Carter (bonus hero from season 10-pack)

I got 3 3* Bonus Heroes today.
What were they? One was a Thanos I can't use yet, one was SWitch which gave me my first Quake cover, one was Hawkeye.1 -
Pulled my 4th HP taco in the last week - this one for 1000 HP!
And then a bonus Hawkguy cover to bring him up to 3/4/4.

3/5/4 C4rol (with 2 yellows in the que) pulled yet another yellow from 20CP...
But wait - Bonus!? .... Black!
Now at 4/7/4, she can be champed just after her boosted event starts (Strange Sights). Oh man, she already plays like she's boosted...2 -
Finally, finally, FINALLY pulled a third red for my 5/2/5 Medusa. I have spare cover in my queue for her, so she's next up for champing after Carol, who also has a withering cover. I am very grateful that progression cover is black, since she's 2/5/5.3

Went to use my placement token for Unstable Iso. Honestly wasn't expecting to get another except a 2* and managed to get Rulk who is now at 10/13 - 3/3/5. Pretty happy to slowly inch my way towards having one of the best 4*s being usable.2
-
Finishing in T50 in Cloak & Dagger PVP gave me exactly two covers (black and purple) for Doctor Doom that I needed to champ him and save 3 blues from abyss. I even used shields, which I very rarely do and it payed off.3
-
Pulled Red Hulk red from the Unstable vault last night. 3/3/4, now. Feels good.3
-
My wasp was at 4/4/1 and I was worried that I wouldn't get her champed before being vaulted, so she's my 4* favorite. I opened a Heroic token and got a Black Wasp cover! Great!...that makes her 4/4/2.
Then I got a bonus hero from that token, which was another Black Wasp cover! Awesome!...4/4/3.
So, I was thinking I could spend 3600 HP for the HFH vault to get another Wasp yellow, but after deciding to open a few Classics, I got a Yellow Wasp cover on the 2nd pull! No she's 5/4/3.
Sometimes luck goes your way.

I wiped the floor with IM46 in the Crash with my 5/4/3 Level 250 C4rol on my first try. No boosts needed. It may be the easiest Crash I've won so far.1
-
My alliance got me 4 elite pulls for the last event- 2 of which were 3*, and both were bonus
Also, Kaecillus killed himselfby hitting 2 at once1
