3* Champions

I'm not qualified to make such a list, but are there folks out there contemplating the "best" characters to champion? Or is the consensus to just Champion whomever you can as often as you can?
I've got an odd collection of 3*s stockpiled, but iso is certainly limited and I cannot even consider my strongest 4*s as they are 80k in iso from being maxed (and I don't expect more of their covers very often).
So are people making plans for selecting champions? Or maybe just using DDQ to prompt for the most part and get all 3*s?
I'm not against ideas for 2*s, I just don't expect to be using them myself, so I'm not giving them much attention at this point.

Then it depends on which 4* character is part if the rewards (3 covers, one of each color, startng at lvl 183) for that 3* character. From the two I championed (because I had their covers so far and the ISO to do it):
Doom has IW at lvl 183
Groot has Starlord at lvl 183
Not great, but the LT's did give me a Kingpin and 4* Cyclops.
Luke Cage 183 - King pin
Magneto 183 - Prof X
Cyclops 183 - Cyc
She Hulk 183 - Cho
Regular Hulk 183 - Cho
Hood 183 - Ghost Rider
Kamala Khan 183 - thoress
Scarlet Witch 183 - Prof X
Thord 183 - Red Hulk
Blade 183 - Ghost Rider
All the characters provide the same 4 star throughout their progress I believe 3 times for seperate covers each. My phone is dying now though so I can't site colors or a more comprehensive breakdown.
Still seems like a generally slow way to progress, but I do like what I'm seeing so far... except where the scaling of boosts seems to be broken.
I agree with the above, and so will be trying to champion as many of my 3*s as I can.
To add to the growing list of 4* rewards at lvl 183 for championed 3*:
GSBW -> Nick Fury
Human Torch -> Thing
Loki -> Venom
Mystique -> Iceman

Psylocke -> XFDP
Black Panther -> Mr. Fantastic
Blade -> Ghost Rider
Cyclops -> Cyclops
Loki -> Venom (!?)
I can champion 4 more, just want to make sure I save iso for lots of skipping I'm going to be doing in the next 4 days.
That would be interesting to see what a maxed champion is capable to do with his abilities. Generally I think the spreading of 3* champions will be MUCH faster then for 4* champions, so it will not take long till 3* champions will be on par with lvl 270 4*s.
Will in the end a 3* Cyc champion do as much damage as lvl 270 Hulkbuster? That would be very interesting data!
The following I consider leveling past the initial LT for... reasons:
* Hood - hps to make him less squishy
* Luke - more hps, more damage, more of a deterrent
* Fist - hps to make him less squishy - I still use him in PvP as a black battery for HBuster
* Magneto - more hp, more damage.
* Scarlet Witch - more hps to make this purple batter less squishy.
Do I plan to invest ISO in leveling my covered but under-leveled 3*? Highly unlikely... I already have a Nick Fury cover rotting my my roster because I lack the ISO to level him to 270.
So yeah. Obviously Champ any maxed 166s/94s. Each subsequent cover you get will be worth ISO or token/cover rewards and there's no reason not to do that (the only ISO you don't get back is the initial investment.)
If you think you'll have an ISO crunch and be forced sell most of the "extra" 3 star covers for your underleveled 3-stars (e.g. you have most 3* still sitting unleveled at 40-60), you probably want to pick two heroes to max/champ that will give you 4-star covers of someone you want at level 183.
You could level Luke Cage and Bullseye, for example, knowing that when you end up getting 17 additional covers for those characters (and with the new reward structure, it's a lot easier to get multiple extras e.g. top 50 in pve is 3 Cap covers) you'll get the Kingpin at 183 for both of them. I'm sure the forums will have a list of who-gives-what completed soon, oh look, it's here: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=37687
Ragnarok = x23
Rocket n groot = starlord
Daken = x23
Psylock = deadpool
Gsbw = nick fury
Human torch = thing
Cyclops = cyclops
Lazy thor = red hulk
Hulk = totally awesome hulk
Mystique = iceman
Thats what i got so far : )
i was trying to level up my silver surfer but the championing has sidetracked me : )
I feel so starved for ISO...
My IW is level 170 and 13 covers. I've tossed 3 extra Blue covers in the past week since I know I am not going to get the 200K ISO before they expire. Which is crazy because that's a lot of "lucky" 4-star pulls, oh if only they were for anyone else..
Anyways I would suggest championing who you can, but NOT everyone. It's just too iso heavy. I envy the guys who never levelled up and are sitting on a fat stack of ISO to choose exactly who they want to progress, but won't feel bad when they pop their LTs right afterward and then realize they are 250K short of Champing a 4-star with a couple covers waiting.
