Should I be keeping my 3 stars yet, or selling them for ISO?

    What's funny is I wound up having Bagman and Blade drop 24 hours after making this post, so I just broke down and bought more roster slots. It's almost like the game knows when Im in a roster slot pinch and then floods me with new characters to the point the hp earning in game can't possibly cover the roster slot costs. XD

    I'm filling up on 3*s too. I only tend to redeem them when I have more than one cover or when they come up as essentials for DDQ. I have enough HP for one more roster spot (and probably will get enough for another before any of my covers expire).

    I know the advice is to not cash in tokens until I have room on my roster for a new character, but I still need covers for some of my 2*s (most significantly OBW).

    Here's my current roster:

    And here are the characters I have waiting to recruit (all 3*):

    Deadpool (Black)
    Quicksilver (Black)
    Blade(Green) x2
    Storm (Black)
    Loki (Green)
    Human Torch (Black)


    I think I'll probably get rid of 2* Hawkeye and maybe Cap soon, but I'm sure they'll end up being essential s for events shortly after I get rid of them.

    Have you tried farming the lightning rounds for ISO and 2* covers?

    To the extent I can. I usually just go up to the 100 point progression reward since there's so much else I need to use my characters on at any one time.

    I think quebbster's point is that the lightning rounds are the best source of 2* covers in the game (and the second best source of iso). Although it is annoying, you would probably be better off in the long run if you really did hold onto tokens until you have HP for a roster slot, and relied on lightning rounds to get the 2* covers you need. it's random. But you can easily play 5 or 10 matches per round and the 2*s do start to pile up faster than you might expect.
