    that yellow red combo only costs 4 more than old 4hor blue red combo and does like twice the damage....i'm not sure if this is kosher or not

    FT is way more sustainable though, the charged tiles make getting additional casts way easier, and being able to chain stun the enemy team prevents a lot more damage than 1k and change in protects

    Thanks for the sneak peak!

    I like how the 4* characters are bringing even more synergy to the game. I can think of a bunch of 3* and 4* characters that would be fun to play with this new character. Keep it up!

    I'm going to throw a guess out there and say that this is Domino.
    There was a hint somewhere that this character is related to the new to be released X-Force Deadpool. Domino was a part of X-Force and can manipulate enemies attacks to fail/do less damage > defense tiles. And can manipulate allies attacks to work more effectively > buffing special tiles & utilizing assets in attacking.

    I stopped trying.

    4* PVE are time away from MPQ, I won't ever play the shield hop dance to get them in PVP and Ultron requires leaving my friend's alliance to obtain anything.. As long as there isn't a DDQ 4* equivalent, my 4* are basically PVE entry ticket for me.

    Back then, before DDQ, the same was true for my 3*. I almost stopped playing the game out of discouragement when I realised I would probably never cover them all.

    DDQ is the only reason I stayed.

    Unless there's some major improvement concerning 4* in the foreseeable future, I will probably quit the game once I'll have covered all the 3* currently in my roster.
    I've pretty much done the same.
    DDQ only though I did try to do the fresh bracket thing with Hulk PvE and promptly lost interest after a single clear (though I did piddle around to earn a placement token for the remaining 2 subs).
    The drop rate for 3* and 4* are abysmal even if they are improved and the constant chase for covers has worn me out.
    The structure of this game demands too much of my time so backing away was initially difficult but as I was able to do other things without having to keep up with node clears it became easier.

    Sam Wilson's Captain America perhaps?

    Obviously it's a 4* Moonstone. She's the best character in the game and is well overdue for the promotion to 4*.

    Can we get 4* Thor and X-Force buffed up now. Seriously this guy does 18K for 23 AP, or 801 dmg per AP. Seriously Thor would have to do 2 Power Surges and 2 Smites to overtake that dmg which would cost 38 AP and still only do 593 dmg per AP. And X-Force's X-Force needs a dmg boost.

    Hi. Yeah. The plan is to update the OP as the month continues and then begin a fresh new post each month. We do need something of a time buffer to let plans fall into place before we list out too far ahead.

    Rather than update the OP, would it make more sense to do Sneak Peek: Week of...?

    Added another upcoming character to the stuff for this month. 1* this time around!

    Character thread is here for specific chatter about the character in question.

    A new 1*? Really?

    Do we get a free roster slot for the 1* ?

    Edit: I'm a little surprised that that's the best clip I could find for that line... My Youtube-fu has failed me.

    LOL. Thanks for the sneak peek. I am happy to see a new character, that isn't a 4*, so thank you guys for that too. Since this is in the August Sneak Peek thread, is it safe to assume that this character will be coming in August as well?

    EDIT-Just re-read your earlier post. Looks like it is.

    Wow what a twist, that must be the rumoured new Spider-Man, who everybody expected to be a new 4*. It's quite a pity that's a 1* because he seems actually quite good! If he were at least a 2* I wouldn't mind rostering him if only for the shenanigans between his purple and 2* Bullseye's black. Poor Quicksilver's green is so bad that now it's mocked by a 1* ability.

    Now I think of it... he's actually a better character than 3* Spider-Man (barring the lower level cap). Hopefully this will finally nudge the devs to buff up our beloved 3* webhead.

    I'm so confused....

    Do I use Venom/Bullseye/new 1* character for the Murderous Aim shenanigans or the Devour shenanigans?

    in the current ISO-8 brotherhood PVE, I was hit by murderous aim while 2 crits were on the board. Good thing whoever was hit ( i think its was cmags) was down to only about 2k health but it was impressive nonetheless
