Thanks for actually posting the information.

No progression rewards, I assume?

radiopy

No, but 300 HP guarantees you a heroic token and 500 iso. When a normal heroic token costs 300 HP, I don't think it's a bad idea.

Man the drop from #3 to #4 is crazy!!! Would suck to put in that much time and miss out.

For ones who can achieve that, that is just 0-10 missing covers, but probably only the DareDevil covers...

However selled covers make a nice amount of HP and ISO.

radiopy

I mean, it's the ultimate reward. A ton of HP was a nice incentive, but I am not sure what thy could offer that would be better than this.

Unknown

Nah, I'll pass.

Unknown

Actually, if absolutely every player enters, can you place 50,002 and get sod all? That would rule.

radiopy

It SAYS all participants are guaranteed one Heroic token and 500 iso, so I would guess even if you somehow got screwed they would give you that.

Was just a silly passing thought. Active player total is maybe up to 70k and a bit including ultra-casual, at a very rough guess from the outside of Demiurge's office (from unbracketed Hulk event numbers). This is obviously an event for people who think they're hot kitty (an initiative I applaud enthusiastically), so there's no way the registration rate should be anywhere close. With any luck someone'll take one for the team and register to sit at the bottom so they can tell us, again. Will be curious to see what the lack of an easily accessible character pair considered high-end competitive does to participation.

Yea, but that is easily attainable in any PvP event for free.


A better idea would be a heroic token that has better odds of dropping a 3 star cover.

My iOS version at least always has daily deal for all tokens each day making the first heroic token daily only cost 100. So unless you're purchasing in huge quantities and don't want to wait or I got a really awesome bugged download Heroic tokens effectively only cost 100 HP making the tournament only cost effective hero point wise top 1k up. Admittedly the ISO-8 helps compensate for that some. I currently lack the funds to join and don't want to pay real world money to get beaten heavily for minimal rewards.

A better prize for me? A Max Level token. Put on a character, and they go to max level.

An Elite Token Perhaps?

Anyone knows if the top prizes are like 1 of every cover, or 5 of every cover?

1 of each color

Unknown

I don't know if I am joining this, but the rewards and structure looks better and less boring than the last time. Top 3 getting every existing cover x1 is really nice (a ton of extra iso and hp actually, if you can do that, you should already have most).
I can probably go for top 100, being unwilling to fight "hit and run - with shields" and not having a team impressive enough, level wise, to shrug off the zombie horde.

But it's a definite step forward in game design, so I can't but approve.

It reads as though it's 1 of every color

Unknown

How hard was it to get Top 1000 in the previous one? Like, how many points?
Since I still lack quite a few 2* covers, I figure if I can grab 3 Heroics it would be kinda worth entering, since that's their discounted price.

Unknown

does your mmr carry over? how much do shields cost and can unshielded see shielded?

lastly, why are there people with weak rosters joining?

Not this tinikitty again... you can buy the heroic for 100HP, and it is worth 125 ISO + few clicks.

I wonder if we get the spiderman nerf update right in the middle of this turnament or something alike.
