Cartoon Face

So it looks like Fury is the next up for DDQ again this coming week. Am i right in thinking that the order that once was; is no longer being used?

2 - Fury
3 - Invisible Women
4 - Hulk Buster
5 - Xpool
6 - FThor
7 - Electra
8 - Ant Man
9 - Star Lord
10 - Professor X
11 - Kingpin
12 - Carnage
13 - Thing
14 - Falcap
15 - Jean Gray
16 - WWM
17 - 4Clops
18 - Rulk
19 - X-23
20 - Ghost Rider
21 - Howard The Duck (Probably a one off)
22 - Chulk
23 - Miles Morales

Yep. One is still planned for this month.

Could mean they are just delaying Wolverine. In fact, considering the DDQ order hasn't changed in forever I would guess that the rest of the list is in fact unchanged.

X-Force Wolverine patch likely incoming prior to his DDQ?
Only reason I can see for changing it?

I hope so as I find him pretty weak and never in my team (I don't have a strong X-Force Pool yet)

Once you roster a usable OML, there is almost no reason to play XFW. Maybe they are going to try to rejigger XFW to bring him back up to the rest of the 4* tier and make a reason to use him again. I've been using my 6 cover OML so long that once I finally champed XFW I was like "meh, that was a waste of iso".

If only they changed his green power back to gain AP again, maybe just maybe people would use him again. We can dream

I have relied on my X-force Wolverine for a long time and been quite happy with him... but now that I finally got a red OML cover I decided to try him out. I don't see myself using X-force much in the future, unfortunately.

Green never gained AP, it just did more damage prior to his downgrade. Black did earn AP, and that was probably a bit overpowered...

Yeah I remember facing XFW and getting destroyed until the nerf.

I'd be happy if they just buffed his green back up and black didn't gen AP still.

I cant see the AP generation being a problem any more. With the likes of IM40, FThor rotation it shouldn't really effect game play that much.

Pre nerf XFW was my highest 4* with 5/1/1. That 5 Green was destroying everything I came across. It was what helped prop me up. I had him maxed to the number of covers I had and rode that wave as long as I could. The nerf hurt real bad. Then OML came along.

Please D3, please take XFW out of the corner.

Reverting the nerf to his green would be enough to make him pretty scary again, the damage on it is laughable for a 4*.

There's really no reason not to, they've shown us through the various new 4* releases post nerf that level of damage to AP ratio was actually alright.

Malcrof

One fight was skipped to put in Howard for Duck Season, most likely they are skipping one to put things back on track.

Maybe they want 3* Cyclops to fight someone else... perhaps someone harder to beat..

Seems unlikely if Wolverine gets his fight "this month", as War Machine is the only 4* left to release this month. Theoretically they could update his abilities in the next patch though...

Yeah I basically never use xfw unless he's required for pve.

OML 4 life!

But I still championed xfw.. I like the champion prizes!

Make XFW Great Again?

Spiritclaw

A nice group tinkering on the bottom 4*s would be nice. XFW could use a tweak, but TA Hulk and IW (and possibly others) would be nice to see fixed.

Esheris

Slightly off topic...but wouldn't a simple "good" fix for 4* Wolverine be to have his Yellow trigger from being destroyed by his own Green/Black. Seems pretty weak that he can destroy his own tile. Maybe it could heal and do the damage if he destroys it with an ability.

Whoa calm down TA Hulk needs a nerf not a buff! He currently can use two of his abilities. I think they need a you can't use his green whilst there are 3 red tiles on the board and you can't use his blue whilst there are 3 yellow on the board.

We all know TA Hulk is way over used and an instant skip in PVP because he takes down anybody with his OP abilities

We have seen a couple of characters changed in 3* land over a few months maybe we are going to see a couple of 4*s get changed.

I do hope he is getting a buff and we see some of the other 4 stars bought onto a fairly even playing field. TA Hulk needs the health regen restriction removed and he might then be playable.

firethorne

Maybe they're playing this rotation on shuffle. I'd actually appreciate that. The last one got pretty demoralizing toward the end, with a bunch new characters a row. I know it all works out about the same in the long run, but it was still frustrating to have all of the new (in other words, weak since they're still at 1 to 3 covers) in a row.

Since Deadpools tiles can be programmed to go off no matter what destroys them, this should absolutely be the case for XFW's recovery tile.
The point of it is that interupting him when he's trying to heal makes him lash out. Oh, but interupting him by blowing up the tile doesn't do that, apparently. It only counts if you match it. Weird.

What week was Iceman? I didn't see him on the list in the first post, unless he's WWM, who's that?
Thanks
