Anyone else having a hard time tanking in Divine Champions?

I put a tank team in almost 4 hours ago at 125 points and have not been attacked once. Is the problem that no one is playing this tournament or are people afraid of my 3 lvl 6 2*s?

    it's generally the most hated tournament format in the game
    add that to **** rewards
    we're all tanking
  • You need to get to a little higher in points before throwing in the tank team. I hit 500 and threw in the tank team. It took a while but I was worth points. At 100, I only see a handful of attacks. Shoot for 200 or 300 for more attacks.

    It's true that 125 isn't a super attractive target, but it's also true that this tournament is unusual. I've been at 400+ for over a day, and 600+ for half of it, and I've been attacked exactly twice: one defeat, one win. My team is annoying, in that all three are buffed, but my Loki is only at 64. People just don't care about this tournament.
  • After putting in my tank team around 15 hours ago I'm down to 252 points (from 315ish).

    My tank team of maxed modern storm, level 15 patch and level 2 modern widow has one or two defensive victories as well (hoping those were to opposing tank teams).
  • I'm not playing until the last few hours. Don't like the format,
  • I'm skipping because I don't care about the Iron Man rewards. Spending on my time on the Hulk event instead.

    This team has now won 3 in a row and 4 of the last 6 matches and I'm up to 332 points. Fun stuff...
  • I'm a bit confused about what you guys mean by the "format" of this tournament. Isn't the format for the pvp all the same, just different rewards and buffed/banned characters. I don't see anything different in the setup of this tourney from the others.

    I don't think you've a loaned hero in this tournament so unless you got a spare level 1 Modern Storm sitting around, chances are pretty good you'll be forced to have at least one strong character on your roster. If you have say a level 85 Ares + level 6 bagman + level 1 Yelena, that can still do significant damage and people won't be too eager to fight you. And even Modern Storm has a tendency to pull off random miracle cascades.

    LOL that's some plausible explanation icon_e_smile.gif

    For this one 500 will be good for like #20 if it stands that way icon_e_smile.gif (and I doubt about missing top50 in any case) so more benefit to just leave the normal team and grab the prize if one bothered to fight to that actually.

    I stopped just crossing, with 517 oscillating between #8 and #10.

    On my bracket top 1 is at 722 points, so it seems that around 500 points would be enough to top 50.
  • Between four hulk sub's going on, a reworked awards structure, and covers a lot of people have or don't want, I'm not surprised there's not much action. I did get some bites on my tank team at 100 points, all level six though.
  • LOL, 2 attacks, 2 defensive wins. Up from #10 to
    #6. Maybe I better go sleep and just wake up leading. icon_e_smile.gif
