    Got close enough that I pushed through to 575 in torch PVP and managed one last JJ token pull, which got me a JJ cover before it ended. I then pulled two LL tokens that got me two MEHulk covers to put him at 13 covers and I had the iso to champ him. Pretty good for a Monday. 
    Very cool.  MEH gets a lot of flack, and admittedly, I was one of the people who were hating on him hard in his thread.  Turns out I'm using him pretty consistently on my teams and I have 56 4* champs.  Fact is he's a pretty fun character even if he's not top 20-30.  Hope you enjoy him!

    Champed MEHulk making him my 30th 4* champ and almost halfway done with the 4s.

    @Daredevil217 At least your experience shows that you don't need to have enough iso-8 to trigger this. Because I read that it triggers when you have enough iso-8. I would love to have your CP and HP.
    Nobody knows for sure exactly what it takes to trigger the offer. They've never officially announced what the parameters are. Personally, I believe all it takes is to have a build of 12 covers that isn't 4/4/4 and an unusable 13th cover on your vine, or some variation of 0/5/5 with an 11th cover of one of the ones at 5. That's it. 

    I can't explain why some people will get the offer when others don't, despite seemingly meeting those qualifications. But I don't think HP or ISO has anything to do with it. 
    I opened som Alias tokens yesterday trying to get Jessica Jones and ended up with a 3/4/5 Shuri with several reds on the vine. A few hours I got a HfH offer for Shuri, so there can't be much lead time Before the offer triggers.
    I do wonder if the amount of covers on the vine speeds up the triggered offer. I know I have gone for days hoping to have the offer triggered when it was just 1 cover and it turns up quite late in the cover expiry countdown (or sometimes not at all).

    Don't really iknow though for sure.

    It's certainly possible, I had 3 red covers on the vine when the offer hit. The only other time it has triggered (for America Chavez) I also had several covers on the vine.
    I've had it trigger when I've had only one unusable cover on my vine. 

    I think it does seem to be tied to the Crash rotation in a way. If the offer is made, it usually seems to happen with somewhere between 48 and 60 (maybe 72) hours left on the current rotation. It then gets tied to when the offer changes for the Crash. Gotta create that artificial scarcity. 

    So if you get an extra unusable cover but don't get the offer right away, hold on to it for as long as you can, to see if the deal comes up with a new rotation of the HfH store. It still may not, but it definitely won't if you sell the cover.

    Definately check out his character thread.

    My favorite team right now is him, Iron Fist and Shuri. Just unreal synergy. I’m guessing you don’t have Shuri champed yet, but I promise you down the road, this team is KILLER. It’s not my favorite Hulk team right now. It’s my favorite team. 

    Other options are Mockingbird/Chavez. Haven’t tried it myself but others say it is both fun due to the chaos and also very effective. 

    I also played him with Rogue/Carol. Basically using the siphon to fuel the more expensive powers and the Hulk countdowns to buff strikes. 

    I can’t think of others off the top of my head, but I know that I’m often looking for a purple/yellow user specifically to fill out my rainbow teams and his number gets called a lot.

    I just did the majority of my climb in Sim with 5* Daredevil, MEHulk, and Switch. It started as a fun, goof-off team, but then they started taking down just about any team I picked, and fairly quickly at that. 

    MEHulk's purple with just one 5* on your team becomes a deadly hurricane of chaos and destruction. I just wish there was a purple battery at the 5* or even 4* level so I didn't have to leave a team with a 3* on defense.

    A week & half ago I pulled a Beast cover and while normally I just train all my champions via their covers on the Vine, for some reason I decided to check what champ reward Beast would give me if I trained him. He was at 222 which meant his very next champ reward was a Purple Jean Grey cover.

    I checked my roster to see if I could use a Purple Jean Grey and saw I already had 5 Purple covers for her, but I also saw she was covered 5/4/3, meaning all I needed was a Blue or a Green cover and I could champ her, and Beast's Champ reward would not go to waste.

    I set Jean as my 4* BH and decided if I didn't get her cover in time, I'd sell the Beast cover, as 3* covers are a lot easier to come by than 4* covers. As luck would have it, a week later I got another Beast cover. He wasn't my 3* BH, it really was just sheer luck. So now I had a back-up Beast cover in case the first was about to expire.

    Then Hearts of Darkness came out and in addition to the Vulture cover I saw a green Jean Grey cover in the HOD Vault. After completing the second sub's initial clears tonight I had 9 HOD tokens. Luck was with me yet again and I got the green Jean Grey cover, making her my 36th 4* champion. I still don't have any 5* champions, not yet, but every week I'm getting a little bit closer.

    After realizing how close I came to just autopilot training Beast and being on the clock for the Purple Jean Grey, I've stopped training my 3* champions via the Vine. Now I check what their champion reward is first before I train them.

    Yeah, my Shuri only has like three covers right now so she won't be getting champed anytime soon. I ran with America and Mockingbird and they were fun, especially when you can get some decent cascades, but man it sucks when you get a dead board and Hulk's random matches don't help. Then you essentially have to rely on Bobbi's red for offense and use her purple to play defense a bit. Matches can be over in a couple turns or feel like 10+ minutes. I'll have to try Rogue and Carol.

    Last night I figured I’d take one last stab at the Gwenpool crash, and was shocked that I was able to do it with a 2/3/2 Gwenpool. Then today, I figured I’d poke at the Spider-Gwen crash, and was able to do that on the third try with a 3/3/0 Spider-Gwen! Now my token hoard is up to 5 lol. I’m saving up for when JJ hits latest, since I wasn’t able to get her (or any 5*) from 9 pulls in the Alias store. I’m also sitting on Cp until I get the iso to champ Rogue, who is at level 94 and 13 covers. I did get Lockjaw to champ yesterday as well, so I’m curious to start finding teams for him.

    Pulled seven Latests yesterday, of which five were 5*s. Then two of those 5*s came with BH Gambit covers (although one was unusable).

    Thor is now level 462, Archangel is up to 12 covers, Reyes is up to 8, and Gambit has 11. Not bad for a day's pulls.

    After finishing my PvE grind this morning, I had a grand total of seven tokens for the Hearts of Darkness vault. Three of them yielded fourstar pulls. Pretty neat! Now I just need to get the Vulture cover too...

    Pulled my 13th Nova cover (3/5/5) from a Latest, so that finishes him off. That's, uh, 33 or 34 max cover or champed 4* now.

    Finally got the blue Bagman drop I needed to champ my previously 5/2/5 Bagman. I was irrationally happy at this given he is useless.
    You shut your mouth!  Though nothing makes me happier than pulling a Bag-Man. If I max champ him (currently 139 with a fully covered dupe!) and champ Howard (currently 4/4/4) I will have won MPQ!!

    I rostered and have been covering him just...because :expressionless: I don't know, just in case one day they make him the required 2*. And when they do, I'll be ready :smiley:
    In exactly 2 months it will be time for the greatest PVP EVER... that’s right!! BAGS TO RiCHES!!

    Will I have a maxed Bag-Man by then to crush the competition with?! Or will I earn the covers needed at the event by crushing the competition?!

    Yes. 
    Got Bag-Man #142 yesterday and #143 today.  That Legendary Token is staring right at me.  Will I get the last cover to champ him before April 1st?  We shall see.  I've been sacrificing paper bags and "kick me" signs to RNGesus.

    Since I'm not planning to sell him when he reaches 144, I need to stockpile some iso for his dupe (already max-covered).  Tough because I'm in a huge iso drought with many 4* dying on the vine after opening a hoard for Jessica.

    I decided to try and hit 2K in the Simulator early this season for the blue Shuri cover. I had eight covers, and wanted to ensure I had 10 for SHIELD Training. I started my climb over the weekend, but really started pushing on Monday night while I was waiting for my nodes too refresh on the 48 hour sub for HoD.

    I picked it back up and made my final push after my 5th clear. I should have gone to bed instead. Once I got above 1900, points vanished and I kept getting tapped. I did make it above 2000 a few times, according to the display anyway. Thanks, server lag.

    I finally gave up and shielded at like 1920 points. The next morning, a few alliance mates said they had made it, and even weren't getting hit after crossing 2000. So I thought I would give it a shot during my lunch break. I ended up losing 30 points overall before shielding again. 

    So after my grind and clear last night, I came for revenge. It took a bit , but it was far less active and I got my Shuri cover. Then I noticed I was five points away from my 10 pack, so played a few matches in Hood's PvP. My 10 pack was eight 2*s, Dr. Doom, Peggy... and BH Shuri! She's set for SHIELD Training, as soon as I get her to 209.

    Oh, and America became 4* champ 54 for me. Almost forgot about that.

    This is from a couple days ago, but after selling several covers for my 5/2/5 Mockingbird over the past several months I was finally able to champ her through HfH to save my most recent cover.

    I can finally run an all-Agents of Shield 4* team with her, Quake and Coulson.

    I champed Bag-Man  :)
    He gives me Heroic token with 3* Falcon who gives me Legendary token with Shuri and Rogue  :)

    So much good the last few days I don't know what to list first, but here goes...

    I opened my Alias tokens and got the only thing I wanted more than JJ... a 5* Black Panter red to bring mine from 1/2/0 to 1/2/1.

    I champed Ant-man! No biggie on his own, but that was my 59th 4* champ and the last in classics. All that remains is Howard 1/4/4, Kraven & Nico who are fully covered, and Black Panther & Shuri who are both at 8 covers. I am almost done champing the 4* tier.

    With the help of CS, Thor is now my first fully covered 5*.

    I had to sell off most of my 2* farm and may need to sell some 3s to champ a bunch of 4s in a short span and avoid cover waste, but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Once I rebuild my farm, it's on to 5* land!

    Got a Colossus cover from a token that was good for an LT. Figured I would get Another fourstar since my Legendary luck has been poor lately.

    Oh look, Purple! Maybe it's Another Thor cover... No, Ghost Rider black, taking him to 3/1/2. Useful but not exciting...

    ...but wait, a bonus cover? Haven't gotten a fivestar bonus cover in months!

    Black Bolt yellow! Just what I was hoping for! That takes my Black Bolt to 5/4/3, so I am very Close to finishing him off! Hope I can manage it Before the green cover comes in the Daily resupply...

    Also hopefully before your Medusa gives out the green cover. Good luck.

    Yeah, there's that too. Less worried about Medusa though since getting the green means I am well on my way to Another black that will let me finish Bolt. But 16 covers for Medusa will take a while to amass.
