    level 180. first try. got my 3rd px purple which finishes him. only top half cover I have left to find is rulk red. then...iso...so. much. iso...
  • My Kingpin is 0/4/2 at level 112. Is it worth spending the iso to get him to my current max of 132, or am I better suited saving the iso and continuing to champion 3 star heroes?

    I'd hate to spend 20k if I really don't have a chance of winning.

    No chance for you, sorry. My Kingpin was 0/4/4 first time and without black, it was impossible.

    This time, there is no TU so it's easier but match damage will KO you.

    My Kingpin is 4/4/5 level 211, so the match was fairly easy. 2 yellows and a couple of blacks finished him off.

    Got a Phoenix red with the token. She's 2/1/2 and almost usable now.

    2nd try with a level 120 3/2/4 (first was at level 90 unboosted). Took r/y, u/p, and rainbow AP boosts, figuring it didn't pay to boost match damage against Cage. Neither of the Muscle countdowns resolved the two times I used Pawns. One got picked by the finger and the other went in an unlucky cascade. Being able to deal match damage would have been helpful, but at least the Thug and Hitman tiles all resolved the first time through.

    I dropped the 2nd set of pawns with under 700 health remaining. A finger brought him under 300, but with no strike tiles I couldn't match him out. I had to focus on not letting him have matches in any of his colors so he didn't kill me before the Thugs finished him off.

    5th try with my 3/5/2 KP unboosted. First 3 tries were at L140, last try was L152. Made it through with about 450 health as both of us got the black AP needed for a finishing move on our last turns. 5 covers in anything but purple would have made this so much easier.

    I have no yellow covers, which makes this pretty impossible. 600 damage from a poke without a countdown to sacrifice doesn't do it.

    I tried and failed 5 times with my 0/4/3 without boosts (got him to half a few times). Finally decided that damage boosts might stack enough to make a difference, so tried with all damage boost, R/Y dmg, and B/G dmg, and I was able to get him on the first try with <400 health left.

    ap boosts, denied black as discussed. 3rd attempt. goons + poke when he destroyed his shield and at the end i had 24 black and 20 yellow and got him down 6000 or so health. won with 132hp remaining.

    3rd attempt so not too bad, i expected worse after wiping out the first couple of times.

    Got yellowflag.png Venom to make him 0/1/2 so hopefully he won't be the 4* fight for a while.

    My level 250 5/2/5 had no problems. I was short on time this morning, and had boosts to burn, so I boosted red/yellow, green/black, and all, rather than my usual first run through with no boosts.

    Got another 4* Jean from the token, as she's the only 4* I've managed to champion I'm not even a little disappointed.

    Level 145, 3/3/1 with 125% crit boost. (didn't want to use the crit boost because they are so rare and hard to find). Took a few tries. There were a LOT of black tiles at the top of the board and as soon as I made a match, more would fall from the top and line up for Cage to get. Took 2 jab/cross, but was able to get enough black and yellow of my own. Had under 400 health at the end. Got red GR to bring mine to 1/2/1.

    Level 132 4/4/5. Not "easy", but totally do-able on my first try, no boosts. Cage got off a couple of Jabs, but no combos or Uppercuts, while I just kept using every skill I had as soon as I could and dancing around my countdowns to get as many as possible to go off.

    Got a red Ghost Rider for my trouble, now 3/5/1. No 5* covers since January. icon_e_sad.gif

    1st try, level 213 at 3/5/4, with rainbow tile damage.

    Got a redflag.png Falcap. Really need a blue for him, but at least at 5/0/3 I might have a shot at his 4DDQ now.

    Tried with my lvl 94 3/5/3 KP and failed miserably. Wasn't going to try anymore, but noticed others on here completing it with similar covers. So I leveled to 140 and boosted +2 redtile.png / yellowtile.png +2 greentile.png / blacktile.png +2 all and took him down.

    My Kingpin is 0/2/5. It's going to be hard without poke as the countdown tiles just don't do enough damage by themselves. Have tried twice and haven't come close.

    Beat it with 64 health left! Got another purple (pink!) Kingpin.
  • Second try with 2/3/5 lvl 123 Kingpin.

    blueflag.png Falcap for my trouble. At least it was a needed cover.

    1/1/3 115. At least 40 attempts and the closest I got was an infuriating 189 hp left on him. **** this.
  • Hard to do it and I gave up many times when AI where matching luckily black icon_evil.gif

    But playing with a 1/1/4 LVL 125 (boost +2 AP in each color) and just following those rules :
    - never let him taking black
    - steal yellow with purpleflag.png power
    - play carefully for the color droping
    - let him matching some 4-match if there is no black in the line / column
    - waiting him matching the enemyprotect.png and then fire...

    I took my revenge after 15 times :
