    So Jean Grey rewards coming up which is great. Could someone clarify these 4-star rotations to me? So if JG green is the first place reward in this tourney then her purple cover should be 1k reward in the next quicksilver pvp right? Then in the next tourney after that her blue should be the 1.3k reward normally. But that tourney is Mr Fantastic release pvp so his cover is automatically 1k reward. What does that mean for blue JG cover? Is it still going to be 1.3k reward or what? I kinda really want the last blue JG cover and it would majorly suck if she got pushed to (impossible to get) 1st place reward in the next pvp.

    Sam Wilson (probably the red cover) should be the 1300 point progression in the Fantastic PvP. Then Jean Grey will be the 1300 point progression in the next PvP. That's how it has worked lately at least.

    I just realised that they are going to replace 1300 pvp rewards with legendary packs starting at quicksilver event. So I'm no longer sure how its going to play out.

    It looks like we are getting screwed out of a JG blue at 1k cover by the fantastic release. Ice mentioned that he (or she, I don't think I have ever heard Ice's gender confirmed) was pestering people at demiurge to switch up the rotation so JG blue did show up as a 1k reward sometime soon. Hopefully that is what demiurge decides to do. If it's skipped this time it might be quite a long time before it comes back up in the rotation.

    Huh. Decided to give Elektra a whirl in the early games since I have her at a decent level now and she's boosted. I have to say Shadowstep is a nice counter to Anger - each Anger triggers the Shadowstep, wearing down Hulk quickly. Not a team I'd shieldhop with, but still a fun interaction. Going to have to try to add some strike tiles and see what happens. icon_e_smile.gif

    Gotta say I'm loving this week's boosted list. SW and LCap are a great combo when buffed. Her purple and his blue, if you've got 1 down, keeps the other team stunned.

    I climbed to around 650 earlier. Got bored after the end of PVE, so decided to push just to grab some progressions. Climbed to the 900s, and was two matches away from 1k when I got attacked. Crossed 1k 2 or 3 times, but always had attack notices waiting for me after the matches. Finally got back to 970 and put up a 3 hr, just to avoid the constant ups and downs. The blue HB would start a dupe since mine is 4/3/3. Never go for 1300, so gonna hit 1k and fall to wherever I fall, then play in last 3 or 8 hrs and climb and shield without worrying about not hitting 1k at the end.

    EDIT:

    Broke shield to fight a match that was worth 60+. Won the match, but had an attack notification, so I was at 995, instead of over 1k. Fought another match and won, luckily, no notifications, so I got my 1k. Saw a familiar name and dumped some points. Got attacked again by the same guy, and retreated in the retal to help them cross 1k, in case they were in the same ups and downs cycle I had been in earlier. Found them again and retreated again. Hope they got that 1k.

    It's still frustrating to play MPQ.
    Hulk's hP is huge and fights take too many times to avoid players attacks / replies.

    I shield at 888 for 3H. Then playing non-stop and my score was between 800 and 900+ but I was always attacked each time i end a battle.

    And of course, after more than 10 matchs, i lost one then give up.

    Good luck to all of us.

    my team for attacking :
    star.pngstar.pngstar.pngicon_hulk.png
    star.pngstar.pngstar.pngstar.pngicon_wolverine.png
    star.pngstar.pngstar.pngicon_ironfist.png

    because he is a embarrassing char to fight against when he is buffed (protect tile creation and stun ability).

    I don't know about embarassing...annoying sure, but I believe using him made you a target. There's been no shortage of lamenting on the forums about how weak spiderman is. Personally I'd attack a team with spiderman 100% of the time rather than deal with a buffed sw/cap/deadpool.
  • Did a late hop to 1000, can't believe it

    all on stream of course

    I see a Spiderman and I am going to hit that all day long. Focus on him first, deny purple and by the time Cap has enough red to lob a shield match damage has usually done enough to take him out or leave it very close.

    I went with maxed Hulk, Lazy Cap and Panther. Stun Hulk before Rage Of The Panther and you negate opponents Hulks anger. Got to about 600 before I ran out of health packs. I expect to get hit for masses overnight but meh.

    I always laugh when I see someone pair a protect maker with Hulk. HE NEVER GETS ANGRY!

    Surprised that I only got knocked down to the 600s. Started my final climb with less than 3 hrs so I could finish with a 3 hr. I know a lot of the people on that attack notification list were disappointed that I had dropped that much because they were in the 900s and probably got less than 20 pts from attacking me, when my node probably said 35+. Only one attack during the final push, got to 903 (I think) and played one of the retal nodes I had saved to hopefully get me over 950, so I could break at the end for a match and finish over 1k. I ended up being one of the disappointed ones since it was only worth 16 pts (I think), so I'm shielded at 919. Glad I got my 1k already.

    Made a few mistakes on the final climb, including not taking Deadpool down when I could've because I wanted to get the most damage from my LCap red shield, not just downing a Deadpool for half the damage I could've dealt. Got whales dropped on me a couple times, so if you're going up against a Deadpool, and you can take him down, do it, or monitor AP (hard on mobile to do, since fast fights are what you want in PVP). Will keep this in mind in QS PVP. Glad mine is still 5/5/3, but I will be swapping him to 5/3/5 after the PVP.

    you might as well say you dont have Line your mostly never getting to 1000. D3 needs to step into the PVP and no longer allow this team up bull **** where you can tell people dont attack me ****. No wonder why people are leaving and it will be worse once the 1300 5 star tokens come out.

    I hit 1192 before shielding, broke at the end for two more fights and ended up at 1324. Single 8 hour shield for the event. Didn't queue up any of the people I hit by using Line, just by skipping around until I found big points. None of the people I hit were on a truce list that I'm a part of, and I wasn't waiting for them to be shielded. In fact I definitely hit one of them, who I saw unshielded in my bracket and raced to queue him up. Hit him once while I'm pretty sure he was still unshielded, and managed to get a lucky queue and got him twice more (which I'm pretty sure he was shielded for by the time I hit). You can complain all you want that it's Line that's keeping you from hitting those scores, but I've seen your roster that tops out at level 89. It's not Line that's holding you back.
