Say I were to spend money on this game, what would give me the best team? I'm thinking about building around 4* wolverine.

    I would wait till the wolvie buffs before committing to him.
  • yeah, wait. I got lucky the other day and got a blue IW cover with a heroic token. Power still sucks though. 2500 to upgrade a cover. jesus. That's a lot of money. 20 dollars if you're hurting for money and 12 dollars if you are not. 12 dollars for such a piddly thing that they will eventually give out in the future. Pay to play indeed.
  • I have 2 4* wolvie covers and 2 iw ( I pulled my second iw cover today from standard tokens ). I dont really recommend buying covers, iso, or hp on any character for 1 or 2 months. By then more characters will be added, nerfed, and buffed. Hold onto your cash as long as you can.

    You lost me.

    They will eventually give it out in the future means its pay for advancement, not pay to play.

    If they would never give it out and it was essential, then it's pay to play.
  • It's possible to get IW and X-Force with max covers without paying. They get handed out a lot to top finishers and when progression rewards were attainable it was easy enough to get them as well.

    Sometimes, some people have very low covers of those heroes that have not been levelled up using iso because they were just using mostly 1 star and 2 star people. They might have used some hero points to purchase 2 star covers when they could've used that money to purchase 3-4 star covers since 1-2 star covers are common as all hell.

    Anyway, my point is, those people who have the money can afford to stay ahead of the nerfs and level up characters that have not been nerfed yet. Oh thor got nerfed? I'll use 50 dollars to buy covers and ISO for my other characters.

    I'm constantly surprised that i see hulks and punishers that are over level 100 while my highest level team is usually 85 wolv 102 spiderman and level 70 magneto. It takes quite a while for me to amass a small fortune of 4000 iso. I can imagine those other people who have invested more money into iso level up characters so it's easier for them to harvest more iso so they can level up other characters that will escape the next round of nerfs.

    I have a level 100 Hulk and a level 87 Punisher. I didn't pay to level up. I haven't paid anything, honestly. I try in every tournament, even the ones I'm grossly overmatched. Playing Lightning Rounds for ten minutes usually nets you about 1000 iso. Losing every match after that doesn't matter. It's all about effort. Selling Wolverine and Thor helped with a huge iso drop. Morale is, if you want it enough, you don't need to pay to win.
  • I think we got a little off topic. Assuming I were to pay for ISO and coins what's the best team money can buy?

    The original answer still stands - wait until the announced character changes have been made, and decide from there. Right now, Spidey is a great character but he's in line to be nerfed so it makes no sense to upgrade him until we know if he's still usable or not.
  • The courageous lightning rounds showed you which characters are the most powerful.

    EDIT: The one other 3* to add there might be Magneto since he is really powerful as well.

    Yep, and the only non-buffed character I would use in the heroic lightning rounds.

    Everyone with a higher-leveled Hulk than me spent money getting it and it's not fair.
    My Patch and Punisher are both just short of 100 and I don't buy ISO. Grind LRs whenever I can, though. It's entirely doable, you just need time to waste. If you look at what Demiurge is "paying" you in terms of cash/ISO exchange rate, you might start being more inclined to buy the stuff and be done with it, but hopefully you actually enjoy the game.

    Your Spider-Man's way higher level than mine, but I assume you're referring to these being relatively recent additions.
  • I'm currently running level 70s magneto (4/4/5) Spider-Man 3/5/5 and punisher 3/5/5 it's working well for me so far
