    Yeah, there's some guy who parks his Maserati at the train station, and I key it every time I walk past it...

    just note KD didn't make this thread, only responded to it. OP was just making an observation and KD just joined the conversation. I saw nothing 'flaunting' about anything he posted.

    Congratz KD, I personally enjoyed watching your roster grow. I hope you continue to enjoy the game beyond this point and you skip me.
  • First, congrats! This doesn't bother me at all because he you might as well be playing a different game than me, but it is cool to imagine everything that went into building his roster.

    Here's my real question: Does he spend more time opening tokens and selling them than playing the game? Forget the cost, I can't get over the _time_ to click all those buttons, yikes! I suppose he must use "sell all" a LOT.
    Oh man. I once opened 190 taco tokens at the same time and dealing with that very time consuming. Just scrolling through everything to find which ones to keep/sell (or now champion) took a lot of time. He must go through that at least once a week.
    The game froze whenever I scroll down to about 1000 covers, it won't go further or at least slowly go one by one cover and that is real pain. So i gave up long time ago u until Champion thing that I can just train the characters directly and when all done, I sell all.
    Ah yes, makes sense. I'll keep this tip in mind the next time I win the lottery. icon_razz.gif

    For anyone who plays on steam or emulator and is opening a lot of tokens. It's a download link for Mouse Machine which clicks the mouse for you.

    That actually raises a question I've wondered about: Is there a bot out there to play the game for you (presumably on PC)? Doesn't seem like it would really be that hard to write one, compared to shooter bots and such.

    I'm sure it'd be a totally sandbox-able offense, and I don't mean to hijack the thread, but I'm very curious...

    KDN should not have to defend himself. Hail to the king.

    I am incredibly disappointed that you didn't add "baby!" at the end of that sentence.

    Are you stalking me to know the amount I've spent? Lol I don't even know my own number icon_e_sad.gif haha
    And that's not true for my Alliance to get 100-200 cps a day lol. They don't need cps from me, they are already powerful as they are. icon_razz.gif

    Honestly, I do believe you possess a $50,000 roster. Even if you were super lucky in getting covers, the fact remains that the game does not provide enough opportunities for you to earn iso to max even one 4* per month. And thus, one can safely assume that you bought a lot of iso to max out your 4s.

    How you spend your money is your choice, and that's fine. A million dollars might be a lot of money to most of us, but chump change to a billionaire. So it's all a matter of perspective and relative spending compared to personal income/wealth/assets/etc. icon_mrgreen.gif

    As far as your alliance getting cps, I don't know how much they get considering how often you join buyers clubs on a weekly basis (those club names are funny; whoever creates those clubs have a weird sense of humor). icon_twisted.gif
    Believe it or not. For all these time, I bought 2 motherlodes. I ALWAYS AND ONLY buy Starks for Hp. Buy 40 packs and sell them the unwanted.

    Thanks for the clarification. Let's do an experiment if you're game. The next time you buy a 40 pack, see how much iso you get out of it. I'm really curious. Just jot down your iso before you open, and subtract that number from the amount you have after you do your open-and-sell thing. icon_mrgreen.gif

    As a hoarder, I saved up 1,400+ standard tokens (I get a ton as a pve specialist). Took 3 days to open them all, after champion feature went live. I did it in stacks of 10 at a time, and erased/sold the unwanted precisely to avoid the scrolling issue. icon_lol.gif

    Add: been holding tacos since the DDQ vault went live. Got at least 230 tacos per vault currently. icon_cool.gif

    Peanut gallery... LOL. +1

    Hey King just one question, now that you have maxed championed 5s, what are you going to do? The biggest problem I see is that the game now is probably very boring for you, there is no competition possible, your roster completely destroys everything. Your matches in PvP now are probably just like 3 matches and everybody is killed icon_razz.gif

    I guess that they will release a new 5 soon, and maybe you will also want to cover it, but until then there is no motivation to play in the game for you that I can think of (well, maybe your alliance...)

    Sure there is. After releasing a total of 10 5*s I highly suspect 6* will be introduced to keep the whales whaling.

    If I saved all of the money I spend on Starbucks and beer weekly I might be putting in the numbers KDN is haha. To each their own. Everyone gets entertainment/fulfillment in different ways. I just hate going up against them but I don't begrudge them.

    To have 300+ tacos per vault, and open only when the good stuff (3/4s I need) are in the vault. icon_mrgreen.gif

    MPQ will follow the lead of Marvel Future Fight. In that game, they added siixth level rank with new powers for super whales.

    *wears tin foil hat* star.pngstar.pngstar.pngstar.pngstar.pngstar.png are coming! The end is near!!!

    Probably. You can bot anything. You can't do that with Mouse Machine, but it is great for opening gajillion standard tokens.
  • Ran across this thread while browsing the forums. Congrats in the achievement (even if I'm about 3 months late). Impressive roster overall. Hopefully, once I finish school and get my first screenplay out there, I can rock a roster like that. Kudos to you, good sir.

    To for the naysayers: Life is about happiness. Too much gloom in the world, so take happiness where you can and be sure to dish some out.
