Just hit my 160k Punisher reward. I'm done with this event and this game for a while. Been on it too much, and the last few days have not been enjoyable. Might lose out on a Thor cover but DGAF since that seems lazy. No Fearless Defenders, panther stuff, or alliances for me either right now. Game seems a bit too much of the middle class getting squeezed as many have already pointed out.

    Art imitating life, amirite?
  • This event put my Thor and Obw on a leveling/covering boost, now at 66 for both. I've been doing quite well, pretty confident about 3 lazy Thors, but it's been exhausting, but that's part of these games I suppose. You want those prizes you play harder. I definitely want more relaxing non competitive action after this.

    Maybe I'll just take my frustrations and pummel prologue Rags for a while.. And Juggs too
  • I was feeling some burnout and felt squeezed with the new reward structure and HP payouts. I found it stressful to keep up with roster slots, since I didn't have very many, and was worried for the future when roster slots may cost 1500 HP (lol super long future). However, I felt slightly reinvigorated when I got a bunch of Thor pulls from Heroic Tokens (as well as prog rewards) that brought him from L45 to L77. All over the course of this one Hulk event.

    I was planning on quitting after the Hulk event. I have no ill feelings towards the game. I loved every minute of it; even the ones that I hated. I hated some stuff but it was stuff that I absolutely loved to hate. Even though I'm tired and feel like quitting, it's something that I may come back to, so I thought I would just grab whatever rewards from the Hulk event (whether its lazy Thor or Wolverine), stash them away somewhere. I like the game, just a little tired.

    It's a little clever and devious how this game is structured. It is the exact things that are burning me out that is keeping me hooked to the game. I burned out because I need to keep up with roster slots, but I don't wanna quit because the moment I do, I'll once again be way behind on roster slots

    Really glad that the rewards for this new tournament isn't that appealing. It's actually possible for me to walk away if I so choose!
  • I found that I had only dropped from about 1100th place to 1300th over the course of the workday, so I'm in no danger of dropping below the two cover reward. And I seem pretty ensconced in third place in the tourney, 200 points behind first, but also 200+ above sixth, so I may not need to break shields.

    So since I got home, I fought a Level 3 Doom in the first prologue mission, beat him with one move, collected my daily reward, and hopefully that's the sum total of my playing for the rest of the day.
  • Congrats! I haven't added it up myself, but I should be able to hit 160k as well in this final refresh if my team doesn't get wiped too many times...
