Just champed Kate B. That’s number 38/48 4 stars. I’m not even bothering with 5 stars and since the latest changes that have been implemented I have been hoarding my cp and ledge tokens. It’s just not wise to pull on them anymore. Not until you are at the place where all 4 stars are champed or near enough OR you have a large hoard of iso.
So my new tactic which I have used for KB and before her, Wasp, is to level a toon I have with 12 covers as high as I can get them. 250/270 then buy the last cover with cp. Then level them up to 270. Pay the champ price. Then move on to the next. Rinse and repeat.
It does seem like a waste…… however I brought wasps last cover to take her to 270 a week ago and had 362 CP left over. Today I did the same for KB and had 409 cp left over so even though I am using 120 cp a time to buy the last cover its still creeping up. So it’s a manageable expense.
I know I could be pulling 5 stars but there is no way im even close to starting 5 star land. I’m not even close to fully covering one and I struggle to level up 4 stars as is with the iso I receive. Id rather stay out of 5 star mmr.
Anyhow, waffle aside. I’m now moving onto Gwenpool. She has 12/13 covers. Then it will be Agent Venom 12/13 then Riri 12/13. Then after that I don’t have any toons at 12/13. Ive got Blade 11/13 and Jess Drew 11/13 however I don’t think spending 240 cp on 2 covers is wise. So maybe by then if I don’t have another toon at 12 covers ill start using some of my hoarded tokens to try and get one.
All the changes that have come in are not ideal but I want to continue to play so you have to bend a little. In a month I will of champed maybe 3 or 4 more of my roster with maybe 1 or 2 new 4 stars being introduced so I think I’m winning………. Just.
Who knows? It may get to a point where I only have the newest 4 stars with only a few covers. So I can happily hoard loads of iso and cp and ledge tokens and start on…………………………dun dun dun. 5 stars!!!!
amusingfoo1 said: Since writing that, I've gotten a few more champion levels, and have fully covered Panther. Other than that, nothing going on at the 5* level. In 4*s, I've championed Agent Venom, Gwenpool, Danvers, and Riri, so (well, as of yesterday) I've got all 4*s available as bonus heroes championed. Howard and Dino are still waiting for ISO, but will probably not bother with them until the next time covers for one are available. Mordo and Coulson are a few covers short, each. 3*s? Nothing much going on there. More champion levels on everyone, and one or two more dupes championed (and two more should be done in the next 3-4 days). Three more dupes are waiting for a final cover (all of which have multiple, unusable covers pending. Ugh). Overall? Up to 30.8M ISO in current roster, with some turnover in the farm. My ISO needed is down to about 900k needed for fully covered characters (the two trophies and a pair of 3* dupes). I am at a fairly relaxing point, though, which is a nice change. The only pressure is to get ISO for Panther, because I want to play around with him. But there's no pressure from expiring covers there, which is nice.

PFellah said: It's been a good month(ish) but I've got a short-term juggling act to manage. At 2*, the issue is when to re-roster. At 3*, it's an ISO crunch, and at 4* it's all about opening roster spots. The good news is the raw resources are there to do most or all of what I want to; it's just a question of making the moves in the right order. Overall since last update, went from 74 to 83, and have enough hero points on hand for an 84th. Basically all the new additions were 4*s, except for the 3* Hawkeye. 2* All about air-traffic control. Most of my 2*s are approaching re-roster, but it's question of how best to do it -- when do I need the ISO, how many covers can I store up before pulling the trigger, do I need to borrow a roster spot for a 4* and re-roster the 2* later, keeping the DDQ and PVE events viable.Champed: Everyone except (1/1/3) and (0/3/2), who just started on re-roster pass #3.Maxxed: and sitting at 144. (143), (141), (140), (139) all pretty close. Most other stragglers somewhere in the low 130s. 3* The story at 3* is all about ISO. I have 4 heroes at 13 covers ( and ) and will be joining them when his turn comes up in the DDQ. And on-hand, I have ISO for about 1.5 of those. Loki, Rags, and Thanos have active covers dying on the vine. Obviously I can get some of that ISO by turning over 2*s, but I need to do so carefully.New/Bottom: At this point, other than the new Hawkeye, all my 3s are viable; at 102 (2/2/4) is the lowest.Champed: Easier to say who's NOT a champion -- basically 9 left. In addition to the 5 waiting on ISO, and are at 12 and 11 covers, and the aforementioned and a little further out.Maxxed: Not anytime soon -- the high water mark is in the low 180s. 4* At the 4* tier, it's all about roster spots. I have at least 3 new covers coming in in the next week-ish (Sam Wilson, the new Iron Fist, and I have a Winter Soldier ticking down in my inventory), but I only have about 1200 HPs at the moment. And that doesn't allow for pulling another 4 at random, or getting one from progression (Hulkbuster and Elektra are real possibilities, since their feeder 3s are at 182.) I can probably juggle a little bit by re-rostering 2s, but it's gonna be tricky and I might need to let one of them slide.New: (had to throw her back and then re-added later) Champed: Nowhere near it. at 6 covers/131 is the only 4* who's even viable for more than trash-clearing.
I have decided to open up my Latest Legends hoard next weekend. Right now I have 245 pulls saved up, so it seems like a good time to do it. Hopefully that means I can save the Purple Gwenpool cover I got from Thanos' PvP too.
ISO stash is at around 3,6 million, so I Think I have enough to level up all fourstars and at least two fivestars too.
Will be an interesting plunge to make...
mexus said: During this coming season I will champ: - Wasp. I'm on it as we speak. She's at 13 covers and currently level 208. I need more ISO so bring me more ISO.- Luke Cage (Power Man). He's at 12 covers and currently my designated bonus hero.- Iron Fist (4*). He's as 11 covers, soon I'll have another one from Iron Fist 3* champion rewards and will also push hard for getting cover #12 from the upcoming PVP progression rewards. After Luke Cage is at 13 covers, Iron Fist will be my bonus hero of choice until I get the 13;th one.Is this doable during one season? Two and a half 4*s? Should be, I think I'm underestimating how the ISO flows. I should also, probably, be able to finish one or two of my remaining 3*s. Right.

Wasp is leaving the token pool on Thursday, so it might be smart to sit on your tokens for a while and hold off on leveling her. She is good, but you will not be able to add many champion levels to her.
Just champed J Drew. That’s 41/48 4 stars. The only reason I champed her was because she was fully covered. Ive never even used her. Lol
That leaves me 7 current 4 stars left. None of which are fully covered.
I’m levelling Mordo at 12/13 covers as high as I can get him.
Then itll be Ririr or A Venom 12/13
After that I have Coulson, 4blade, Ifist 11/13 covers
And way down the bottom C&D at 3/13.
I was using cp to purchase the last covers I needed when a toon got to 12/13 but im now into hoarding. Im on the cusp of being able to go to 5 star land but I cant really make a decent inroad into that until I have a good 250 pulls. Because I have so may for the toons champed it will just be wasted champ levels atm.
So ive got about 84 pulls saved up so far LOL. Still a way to go.
Luckily im still ahead of the curve. Even with the two new 4 stars coming out soon I should be ok seeing as I wont have them fully covered anyhow.
If I can get to a position where im levelled up totally on all current 4 stars as high as I can get them and that im just saving up iso then ill be very happy.
