    I took down MK with IM40, GSBW, and Captain Marvel, but MK one-shotted Marvel and the other two were left pretty crippled by the end. That green is nasty.

    That spider-heavy final node on day 2 was so annoying, they don't hit as hard as most final nodes in the simulator, but it took so long to kill them off with stuns being used so often.

    I used Kamala Khan, She Hulk and IM40 on that fight. After a recharge, I had 18 green, and Moon Knight had 12 Green. I used Furious Charge three times, and completely drained everything BUT their green. That was...unpleasant. Fortunately, She Hulk was the one that went down, as taking down either of the other two chars would have been very bad. It just took way longer than it should have after that.

    The Kate Bishop node is annoying as well. Even at Lvl 135 she has two abilities that do crazy damage.

    I have a newly-championed Hood and just realized one great team to use him in my 3* roster: with GSBW and C. Magneto. Mags redflag.png makes AP stealing a lot more efficient and GSBW purpleflag.png becomes a lot easier to use without all those tutile.png around. Then GSBW greenflag.png nukes and enables CMags redflag.png again.

    This team has been super efficient in this event because two of them are boosted icon_e_biggrin.gif

    What's wrong with ending in first place and getting three Nova covers and three Hulk covers?

    how i understand it OR am i understanding this wrong

    1 place 3 nova covers
    2 to 5 2 nova covers
    6 to 10 1 cover cover and 3 hulks

    it says + rewards on tier lower.... so if you took first you would only get 3 nova covers no hulks

    Nope, you get the relevant amount of 4* covers for your place plus the 3* covers.

    Yep, Crowl has it exactly right. I'll add: 1st place is one nova cover, plus the rewards for 2-5. 2-5 is one nova cover, plus the rewards for 6-10. And 6-10 is one nova cover, plus rewards for 11-20. So if you get first place, you actually get all 3 nova covers, pus the 3 hulk covers

    4* Deadpool and X23, with IM40 for non-essentials, and so far (in slice 5, so still sub 2) it's been a blast. Countdown for What followed by Twin Pistols on the Hood essential node is quite good fun.

    What did we do to make the Devs hate us so much? I can understand 4*s in the high node but filling almost ALL the nodes with them for the 3rd round seems a bit much. Glad I loaded up on points last round. It is one thing beating level 300 4*s with 3*s once, needing to do it multiple times is cruel.

    hmm. Venom Bomb was the one ending June 9th, so that'd be odd since you should have gotten Jean Grey plus the Iron Fist covers. Was it that event or the last run of Simulator (I know, ended June 5th). If it was that one, it was a new character event (release of Kate Bishop). For new characters, reward structure is slightly different and only rewards the 4*, not the 3* underneath it.

    Man that Blade / Fist / Cage node absolutely melted the first team I threw at it (IM40 / Torch / GSBW). No matter how much red I matched away, more kept dropping. Blade just kept filling the board with strike.png no matter what I did, and with Fist's free attack.png sitting there, I just bled out. I couldn't get the yellow for Recharge until about turn 7 or 8, and then when I did, two of the three CD tiles promptly got matched out by the AI.

    Even the second team (IM40 / KK / .. who did I use? He/she died anyway, can't remember.. Hood maybe?) barely pulled through. KK was down to about 200 HP I think, and whomever my third was didn't make it nearly that far before keeling over.
