    Waiting to read details on new PVE event; but the ingame preview pops up and I check out the write-up, see the boost lists and the first disappointment hits:  none of those reqd work well at all, but then I scroll down the rewards and I see a tinykitty tinykitty piece of tinykitty YELLOW cover for Torch!!!!! 

    Bad enough that he is reqd for shield training since there haven’t been enough chances to earn him through events. And he was new status until the anniversary started so couldn’t even BH but ANOTHER yellow cover???

     I could deal with Tasky red and tasky red and tasky red and tasky red and tasky red but this is just grinding the boot at our necks. How can we have a fighting chance at combatting dilution if they create artificial scarcity?

    Realizing that as patheticly nonexistent communication was with the former mouthpiece at the helm it has somehow gotten worse.

    1st one : i was 2 points short to reach Dino's pvp top10 (SCL9). That was already bad but the worst is i missed a non-red cover for Taskmaster. And as yesterday the 40x pack i bought from the Anniversary vault gaves me my 12th cover, i should have him champed instead being a 5/3/4 with 3 dupes. grrrr
    At least i'm still able to get the blue cover from the 19 items left in this vault and a chance of another 40x pack in a reseted one (i got 5800 hp right now)

    2nd one : yesterday i picked as usual the last slice for the pvp, Lost in time this week end. That mean for me end of sub at 7:59 am and the new sub starts at 8am. today i realised that sunday i will be on the road at this time and i could have avoided all trouble by picking an evening  slice :(
    I hope i will be able to get all the progression rewards because placement is dead so is 3 covers for the new character

    Bonus one (a little bad moment) : i play as much LR as possible and I win a good amount of heroics. 2 LR from the end this week and still no 4* nor BH 3* :(

    Finished my final clear of the final node of DP v MPQ about 5 seconds too late. It would have been the difference between top 10 and top 5. Not that it would have got my torch shield training ready or anything. Also, because I hadn’t previewed the lightning round, when I entered it there were no seeds. What a rubbish few minutes that was.

    In a very competitive bracket, I was beaten in the final sub by 1 point by another player.  I had gone into the sub with a 1-point lead on him, so we ended up 5th and 6th overall, with the same score. And he had scored that final point before I did...
    Oh cruel mistress fate :)

    Finished DP vs. MPQ with about 30 seconds to spare in 10th place. I thought, "I should tap something to get an extra point or two." However, I had no nodes worth any points that I could reliably complete in such a short amount of time.

    I went ahead and started the new event and eventually saw the rewards screen come up: T20 in SCL9. No green cover, which would have allowed me to champ Torch. After my clears, I checked to see my final placement: 11th place... by one point. 😐😑🙄😞😡

    I just opened 24 elites and every one was a 2*. Not so much of a "worst moment" as a what is going on with that? Never seen a run like that on Elites before. I assume it is just RNG and they haven't run out of "budget" for 3*....

    Earned the new human torch Jim Hammond character, opened the cover, paid the 100 hero coins. go to the node specific to him and the game tells me I need that character. like customer services would have this fixed for me before the tourn is over and I loose my shot at the top 100 and the new spiderman 2099 cover ? Great job guys !
    We love you 3000 !

    I just realized that for the first time in any anniversary so far no anniversary tokens gave me Devil Dinosaur covers.  Sure I got Dino champ levels from other sources, including the costume offer, but it’s both annoying and improbable that ~40 tokens (I only did the daily deal plus whatever I won in events) left me Dino-less.  Oh well, may that be the worst thing to happen to me this week..

    Damn I got like five from my vault and another two from the post Anniversary vault.

    Realising that my bonus rewards were inactive, and I needed to make a purchase... the day after the Hero Point sale finished.  Bummer, my $2.99 could have gotten me an extra 60 HP yesterday.

    Encountered two bugs during Webbed Wonder that has destroyed any chance of good placement...
    First I got the blank reward screen, which burned enough time to cause me to miss my final node clear.
    Second I got the display bug where it showed my node at 3/6 and when I won the battle, it showed 5/6.

    After months, I finally got a bonus 5* from a pull again. But it's a blue cover for my 3/4/6 Jessica Jones. Boo.

    I think I might just set my 5* bh to my 3/1/2 Doom or my 1/2/2 Hawkeye, just in order to prevent future disappointment of receiving a cover in a color I already have 5 in again.

    Sigh.

    Yeah, there's no way I'd put someone with 5 in a colour as my 5* BH. Too much chance for Murphy's Law to poke me in the eye. I won't even do it on lower tiers if I have anyone better to BH.

    Meh, since JJ has no feeder I figured should try it anyway. Probably wouldn't have if I had her at x/5/5, though.

    To make it worse: if I remember correctly, that 6th blue JJ cover was also a bonus hero cover.

    I feel 5* bonus heroes are rare enough that they should guarantee awarding a cover in a color you haven't maxed yet. Pipe dreams.

    Uhg. I mustve consulted an obsolete chart. I feel stupid now. But thanks! Turns out I need only 2 more AC covers for a much required red cover for JJ!

    For future reference, this is the only feeder that gives covers out of sequence. All the other ones feed a top cover, middle cover, then bottom cover at 280, 300, 320 and then repeats the same cycle at 340, 350, and 360.

    Chavez gives the top cover at 280 and 340, but then the bottom cover at 300 and 350 and the middle cover at 320 and 360.
