    I'd have to agree with locked on Thor's red. Before they fixed him....it was the bread and butter move. Now it's so useless because it only generates 3 yellow. Psylocke's red on the other hand does okay damage and drops a nice attack tile and for each one, it lowers the cost. Careful if you use Wolverine with her because there can only be 3 attack tiles or it won't generate one when Psylocke does it. I am probably going to run my punisher, psylocke, and obw as my main towards higher ranks and have Thor/Wolverine or Mag MN/Storm C help climb the charts. First things first tho...simulator. I hope you guys are all doing well there.

    You probably meant strike tiles, Psy's red places strike tiles. Her black places attack tiles and is her best move, imo (rare colour). Isn't running both Punisher and Psylocke a bit redundant with the same role they fulfill and competition over 2 colours?

    Oh yeah just logged in and got the rewards from Hood tourney. Got a bit more points while offline, due to tankers or something. And finished 1st place, nice BagWoman cover. Useless, but still nice to get one icon_e_biggrin.gif

    Seems that I won't get my BP far, even with ISO from Simulator coming in a hour. 75 at best, not very useful. So will have to use 85 Cap as a meatshield.

    Whew, I was able to hang onto Top 50 in my bracket at 253,735 points.

    Finished first in the main bracket with ~278,000 icon_e_smile.gif

    It seems all tourneys and PVE events give alliance awards now, which kind of sucks because the alliance awards are crucial. I'm on vacation the coming Friday until Monday, so I won't be able to play much if any. I hope that's okay with everyone, but I have a feeling that's when the Human Torch and or Daken (gold) event will be running :/

    Oh it's okay, don't feel bad lol.

    Meanwhile thank you everyone for placing top 50 in the Simulator! (Man, I forgot to take a screenshot, if anyone has done it, please share for the love of pasta.)

    No screenshot here, but I did notice we were in 23rd place when I checked a couple of minutes before the event ended icon_e_smile.gif

    Are the awards taking a while to come through on the simulator? I haven't received blue lazycap yet, not sure if that was the alliance reward or not.

    I came in 5-2-2 in the main and final 2 subs; yay for Europe friendly ending time icon_e_smile.gif

    Got nothing of use from heroic tokens the entire event, lol. How'd you guys do?

    Never mind, just came in, yay!

    Stockpiled, like 50k iso from the last couple of rounds; you guys planning to put any in lazycap?

    Damn, Damn, Damn!! icon_mad.gif I was top 10 in simulator but got busy at work and finished top 75 overall icon_cry.gif Oh well, maybe Steve Rogers ain't that great anyway, lol. I could use some black and red Hulks tho, that'll be sweet. So do good in the defenders tourney my fellow teammates icon_e_wink.gif

    Never fear, lazy characters are added to standard and heroic tokens eventually so not *that* rare. Panther, Psylocke and lazyThor have already been added, but yeah, I doubt that lazyCap is worth leveling until he has most of the covers anyway.

    Also finished top 75 and got a yellow Cap, so you should too, Killa!

    Nothing from 6 heroics in the first round, but next 3 were 2 black hulks and a yellow spidey - so happy with my haul for the week.

    And top 10 in overall simulator bracket so now a 1/1/1 lazy cap, but no plans to feed him any iso. So why did i fight so hard to win him (apart from the team win)?! Must have a thing about collecting shiny things....

    Oh and i enjoyed the rubberbanding today - snatched half an hour this afternoon from work to get around 25k points (first node alone was 4500 pts) & take me over the progression for the 8,000 iso too.

    It does seem to be essential to play in the last 2 hours to keep a decent place in PvE. I wonder if they could find a shield equivalent for PvE, although can't think how it would work

    Nice to see all of the rewards come rolling in this afternoon! I wasn't able to play much in the last tournament, but I did manage to hit 500 points and shield, which was surprsingly good enough for a top 25 finish in the Black Panther award tournament. A heap of ISO, some HP, two black panthers, and a Captain America - pretty nice haul I think! I'm happy to see that it's a BLACK Hulk cover in the Fearless Defenders - that's the one Hulk cover that's completely eluded me.
    My parents are visiting for a week, so I am going to have only sporadic time to play, but I'm hoping I should be able to play about an hour a day or so.

    Hah. Think I must be the same; I didn't like normal cap enough to level him so I doubt I'll use this one. I guess having him means we wont be excluded from any exclusive nodes in future.

    Really want to level hulk, but I'm going to miss the last 8 hours of the upcoming event and my MMR is stupidly high at the moment icon_e_sad.gif

    All you need to do to adjust your MMR is go to Shield training and retreat from a dozen matches. Maybe a bit more if your MMR is that high. I'm finding that tanking too much is detrimental since you start seeing too many low level low value opponents, lol, and your progress in a PvP is hindered.

    Apparently this new cap looks to be well worth leveling since his max red can now do over 2k damage once he's leveled past 100 while still returning 10 AP after 3 turns.

    Time to get busy earning the Alliance reward for the new PvP event, a final black Hulk cover has been my white whale for over 3 months now!

    What's MMR stand for? Something to do with tourney opponents?

    Oops i meant either. Psylock or punisher with obe. It was late when i got home =p. my third depends on who i fight. Most likely thor/wol. Wished i had someone tankier but that will do for now. In 4th now but that will change....more crystals tho...whoopie!!!!
