I think someone's trying to make a point with that one. thought it was a cake, but didn't look right, so I looked at the roster and alliance and well, there you go.

A competitive but not hyper competitive person used to about 75th place (I'm talking about myself here) would suddenly find himself placing 475th. I'd love to see a complete overhaul of PvP, but I don't think side-by-side events is the answer. EDIT: Unless they change the reward structure completely.

That is a seriously flawed system. I don't agree with only using JeanBuster, as a diverse 4* roster can field far better teams depending on the matchup and what characters are boosted. This past event I took very few losses with my boosted Carnage for example. I do agree that a developed 5* roster ruins the PvP experience. If you have one or two 5*s at 405+ you should pretty much always be using them. And always fighting similar teams with the same 2 characters is really not a very enjoyable experience.
mpqr7 wrote: The challenge with two separate pvps is that you'd then need to have two separate alliance groups. One for 3* pvps only and another for 4* pvps. I can't do both pvps concurrently.. I barely have time to do one pvp every 3 days, let alone two. So this may break up a lot of alliances. Presumably someone who does 3* pvps could score higher than someone who does 4* pvps. I guess we'll see. I like the current way of dropping some 4* pvps for older characters in the middle of the season. It stirs things up a bit. I hope that the 4* pvps have better prizes.

I think what was suggested above was to have two concurrent PVP events, but that entering one of them locks you out of the other. That's actually pretty similar to the design I started to sketch out for a Civil War PVE event a little over a year ago, when Demiurge was advertising for an intern. I went so far as to PM one of the reds about whether existing tech allowed for such a thing. (Around the same time, I was noodling ideas for Kate Bishop (Hawkeye), roughly 2/3 of which looks an awful lot like 3BE - however, as I remember it, this was before he was unveiled.)
