    Kabir mentioned Champions in an interview posted yesterday. He didn't mention when it's happening, but it exists.

    you joke. but I use my 6 y/o son on the reg. he does the easier DDQ nodes and most of the trivials in the events. he gets frustrated on anything more difficult.

    Regarding the cost of a Legendary Token, we do have some interesting news: We'll be launching a new 4* or better token for 20 CP in mid-January, as a cheaper option for the folks making their transition to a 4* team.
    ...
    Finally, we're also launching a huge new feature that will definitely shake up MPQ: Champions. After you have fully leveled a 2-star (or better) character, you can add new covers you get to take the character past their level cap. With each additional cover, you'll also earn juicy rewards, like more Iso-8, Hero Points, Command Points and Legendary Tokens. We think this makes every cover you get interesting again, and the Command Points and Legendary Tokens will also help to speed up your progression.
    nice

    guess that means you can sell off your queued up 1* characters.

    tl;dr for gameplay news.

    3* buffs coning soon. (No details on who but looking at you Spidey, IM, Psylocke, Punisher)

    New token for 4* or better for 20 CP. Sounds like lower cost with less chance of 5*. Better for lower transitioners.

    Champions confirmed. ISO, HP, CP and legendaries as rewards for applying extra covers. Still no word on the cost to make a character a champion.

    Wow, Kabir should be doing all of the interviews and public relations.

    I am also taking away that any 3* covers I've been saving for days (i.e. Vision) are not worth keeping if I don't have him fully leveled yet.

    Just came here to say this.

    Not gonna hold my breath though... the devil is in the details.

    Glad to see some official info although it would have been nice to have read it here first.

    PS -- He says you should be able to pick up at least one CP per day... How???

    The wording suggests you need to have a character at max level before you can start to pump duplicate covers into them. Great for my 2*s but I have limited 3*s at max. A lot at max cover, but none at max level. I like the idea because it's something to strive for, at least I can make my 2*s better than my 3*s again lol

    I have a ton of 3*s at 166, so I'm good. The ones that aren't yet at 166 are fully covered and generally at 120+ and generally are terrible at pvp defense, so not really worth improving until I have leveled up more of my 4*s. For now, I'm saving my ISO to see if there's a cost to this new feature. Then, I'll get back to leveling hb and antman.

    I'm guessing he means from PVE.

    You can get two a day from PVE missions (the 4* essential and the top node). If it is a two day sub, there will be four within.

    You just have to kneel before the Almighty RNGesus and pray you get it sooner rather than later.

    I've only missed two since they rolled out that way.
