Totally Awesome Hulk champions in the game? (not counting sandboxed accounts, of course.)

The topic came up in another thread discussing the boosted characters for June 30 - July 6, 2016. My over/under is currently 100.5.

Seems like a harmless data point to share with the players. Can we get a red name response?

(shameless self-promotion: maybe we can get a response if we upvote this post enough!)

    I've actually seen five. Three huge whales, one somewhat smaller one, and one sad person who had Chunk as their only 4* champion, and was using him in PvP.

    What's wrong with Chulk? LOL

    He can beat any 2* easy.

    I think I actually know exactly which PvP one amusingfoo1 is talking about. Screenshotted it sometime last season and just posted it in another thread:

    True, he's so OP. Time to break out the nerfbat!

    Isn't the answer to these kind of questions always "No"?

    Except for the times that they're ignored, of course.

    Well, hell, there's 2 champed Cho's in the alliance I am in right now.

    And it's a PVE alliance, not a load of whales.

    From this I presume 10% of all players have Cho champed.

    Got one max champed cho in my alliance, I'd say the member who has him fits into that top 1%

    I remember in the Sentry-era the devs released stats on the top five powers fired by players, AI opponents, & goons.

    I would like to see such stats on a quarterly basis, if not monthly. I can't see how that information is a national secret. I think it would be interesting to see such stats.

    We don't often get responses to specific requests like this, but we did get a lot of detail on the feedback on the last PvE test.

    It seems like a great form of fun and neutral community engagement. One would hope nobody would shoot the messenger on something like this (but someone probably would, sadly). Still, it would be fun to see silly data like this.

    That picture shows dedication to not waste 1 cover. You know this player either really loves Cho or had a couple extra covers and wanted the LT token and didn't want those covers to go to waste. The might have ruined their matchmaking in PVP, but I give them credit for maxing thier first 4*!!!

    I have an alliance mate who dubbed what he calls "Hate Champing". He got tired of getting cho cover after choir cover and champed him. He said he went from hating his covers to getting excited about the impending next LT

    My Chulk is championed.

    After championing the key players in 4* land and finding myself playing at 5* tier I came to the decision that my focus should be to champion trash characters whose covers drop a lot and whose ddq 'might' otherwise be challenging. As such Mr.F, Invisible Woman, Elektra and even Totally Awesome Hulk all got high priority championing over good characters like Nova.

    I'm glad I did it this way because the game loves to hand out Chulk and especially Star Lord covers.

    Once you champion Rulk, HB, Cyke, JG, Iceman and Quake you're pretty free to spend your ISO any way you please. Obviously someone like 4thor or Fury might see play where Chulk will not but neither one will truly be necessary for you to succeed.

    Don't mind me, I'm just bitter and twisted from when my requests for information were callously ignored.
