    Its about tinykitty time we get 4* PVP events. They better have superior rewards than the 3* events too.

    Haha, you're new huh?

    So the Daredevil PVP should award Elektra covers for all placement awards. I suppose that would be the true start of 4* PvP.

    Oh wow, Elektra pvp! I guess I have to start leveling her up... I was going to wait until I had enough ISO to do it in one fell swoop, but I guess there's no time like the present.

    Even though it's stressful to need to level up pvp characters, I think it's a good change. It keeps us on our toes! I've already champed all my 3*s, so I'm set for all those 3* pvps.

    Very interesting. I hope we have more 4* pvps for old (ie non-new release) characters. Bravo, devs!

    It would be great if 4* pvps had better prizes! One can dream!

    And yes, OML is going to be tough.. don't let her steal your strikes!!

    Would be awesome to have a community manager who actually plays the game.

    Cause what we really want to know is whether this 4* pvp is a one-off, whether the prize structure is different, etc.

    Things that a player would like to know because it's stuff that concerns him.

    As it is, a 4* pvp gets announced as an aside, without any further info. Brilliant.

    I can't even begin to describe how much additional communication would help the mood around here.

    Less info = more speculation = more buzz.

    When listing the upcoming PvE events, would it be possible for you to note how many days the event is?

    They are Always the same length. Simulator is Three Days, Enemy of the State is seven. I agree that sharing that info in the initial post is good though.

    I think this is a one-off because DareDevil is premiering on Netflix this week. Gotta get that in-game marketing...

    Except what usually happens instead is.

    Less info = more speculation = people imagining what they want to see = rage when they're given the same old turd instead.

    I can only imagine they are running Elektra to show how they fixed the worst 4* out there. Right?!?

    How does running an Elektra PVP show off how they fixed Totally Awful Hulk?

    And the last time Blind Justice was run was only 2 seasons ago. It usually takes 4 or 5 seasons for an event to roll around again.

    Yeah this really looks like a one-off. The new 4 is probably a new Punisher, and both are featured chars in the Daredevil second season, so if I have to vet this is a one-off (but I hope they add 4 PvPs with new rewards, concurrently to 3 PvP soon...)

    It probably is a one-off promoting the new Season of Daredevil, but it could be a sign of things to come - a 4* PVP happening every so often to showcase something or another.

    I have no objections, it does shake things up a bit...

    Wouldn't it be nice if we didn't have to always make guesses about stuff like that?
