This buffing of Char's like Wolverine in the PVP tourney is a lame attempt to get people to use more health packs and more money.


It's not fun at all to see a 2* wolvie maxxed out and buffed one shot you.

The developers need to not have any more buffing in PVP tourneys. No hold's barred was my favorite so far.

    I think the idea is to promote character variety. If it was always No Holds Barred then everyone will just use the same 3 chars all the time, perhaps never even bothering to explore other options. It also helps to just have some variety from week to week and, in a sense, force you to spread your ISO around and make the game last longer (eg. if you don't want to be 1 shot, you need a higher level wolverine too!).

    Sometimes tho I do feel the buff can be a bit too much, like the 300% increase to Thor during his tourney. That basically made every fight to see who can get their Thor's combo off faster.

    I understand your sentiment, but those that have a maxed Wolvie are loving it. Buffing characters is fun when the pendulum is swung in your favor. It was nice seeing GSBW with some health and literally one-shotting teams. The power is engrossing, and thus fun.

    If you want to have more cover variety, simple, let us pick are own covers, ex : magneto 10 / loki 6 / hawkeye 8 then the comparable teams are displayed, pick which you would like and fight, the way it is now, we always pick are biggest covers.

    Or to see how long it'd take to kill a 300% Thor when yours is level 20. Plink, plink, plink, plink, plink, plink, Retribution! Plink, plink, plink, plink, I wonder how Marvel Heroes is coming along.

    It's a good way to emphasize different characters from one event to another, as are filters, although they're a bit more likely to exclude people entirely. It said right there on the screen that Adamantium Slash would hit for over 5,000, so him getting that much red and using it is hardly something the game sprung on you.

    Buffed punisher was awesome, strike tiles + big molotovs

    I like it because you get to experience what a max level character feels like. Thor was definitely way over the top, but historically they've been pretty reasonable. Or extra ridiculous to take care of their PvE content, those are (were) fun too! Again, not the most recent one, but before...

    If it makes you feel better, non-buffed high level 3* wolvie or 3* mags will one shot just about anyone with their red/purple =)
