Well... the list of boosted characters is pretty fun... too bad I don't need the placement rewards. Will be playing for ISO/HP/tokens only.

ZootSax

I never thought I'd see the day where Moonstone wasn't boosted in this event...

zzzzz at least it means its not a new character, aka a break

I hope it is just my ignorance, but using sentry and carnage is just awkward and difficult at best. They ate the third member of the team in no time at all.

Yeah, they definitely have their drawbacks. Teaming them up with Wolverine and Daken helps a bit though, at least then you can heal back.
Right now I'm fairly happy my Carnage doesn't have any black covers though.

Played the first node and was bored out of my skull. This is not a good team-up of characters at all, IMHO. Takes way too long, animation after almost every turn and not very interesting. Other than that, it's great. Glad I don't need anything they are handing out so nice to have a rest for a bit.

Berzerker Rage + Hailstorm does make short work of goons.

I'm only playing this one for the 50 HP progression. I need nor want nothing else. Nice easy ride.

I have half assed it to this point and am top 50. Seems many don't want anything to do with this. I just need gsbw purple.

Yeah, I'm suspecting my late start for GBSW is going to go pretty much the way my last late start went. About 20 total fights for 66th place and a cover...

Got into top 20 with ease. Luckily, because i need the GSBW covers

Sub ended 35 minutes ago, didn't see awards come through...can't wait to get that 2* token pull.

Some subs are infuriating and are health pack sinks but as far as competing against others, this is a rather calm event.

Couple clears, even late, and some grinding and I'm doing top 50.

With Patch, Daken, and Rocket & Groot boosted, I'm finding I don't really need to use health packs this time around.

Which nodes stay open from sub to sub in the main? I have 3 right open now and don't know what to grind away as the second sub comes to a close.

I have started the second sub-event (China) and all 3 are still repeatable on the main screen (enter the dark avengers, rooftop brawl, and flex your muscles) but I do not recall if they remain open throughout the whole event.

Cheers!

I think this is the first time there's been three repeatable nodes there, as I recall previous runs have only had Enter the Dark Avengers.
