    seeing how well we did in the pve event i think we should go for top 50 in the lone star event.. its an easy 100 hp, 2k iso and hood cover.

    Thanks for the compliment. I'm sure you guys will be more of a factor towards the end.

    Agreed. We don't need to aim high on this one (and 1* tourney is a grindfest)... a nice, soft Top 50 to pick up the cover would be fine.

    Argh! I had a similar "whoops" moment, moonstone got off red and one shot my patch, I did NOT see that coming. I'm pretty sure I ended up in 2nd in the easy bracket by TEN.

    Got the remainder of the rewards, I didn't realize that first and second got the same prize so I once again retract my previous outburst. Sorry guys, I'm a glass case if emotion.

    I ended up getting 3 DDs from the NHB and 3 ares from easy sub tokens. Red green yellow. It'd be awesome except my ares is already 85 covered like I want so really all useless. I hope they implement alliance cover sharing. My 2* stars are all max covered how I want except for a missing green wolverine (I sold thorverine and dumped that ISO into OBW and patch. No regrets) so if they do I wouldn't mind sharing my 2* covers with brothers in need.

    Full disclosure, I don't have ANY 1* characters on my roster so, uh... This is awkward...

    Went to bed ranked 1st with 52,5k, waked up to top 10 & 50. Europe suck.

    I won't be able to contribute much in the one star tourney either....my only levelled chars are storm and IM, since I had to sell the others at one point to make room (I got 'em all back eventually, but they're all lvl 1) icon_e_sad.gif

    on a side-note: I really hate that false god....with 2 green-generating goons at his side, he really becomes annoying....might have to use spidy on him after all ...

    Holy ****, where did all of these people come from?!

    I don't think I brought enough bloody Mary mix.

    Hey I started the subs around 8 hours after they started so that I can allow full 12 hour refresh for tonight's battles. The rubber banding in this event is pretty crazy. I was at 80th place in the main when I started and ended up in 1st place in the main (1st in easy and 2nd in hard). Currently sitting at 73588 points.

    Also I'm finding that using 2* wolverine's red strike tile creation works well with dooms attack tiles since it cause the strike tiles to hit every turn.

    Current status:

    For the 1* tourney I have 3 to use (iron man, juggernaut, and black widow). So hopefully I can get us some good points.

    that lazy thor fight with the grenadier is so unfair.. they get 3 greens without matching greens because of grenadier and thor is just spamming that special call the storms. dont see me doing that node when they become lvl 130+

    Yeah that battle is crazy. Between lazy Thor matching greens and the autogen from the goons, Thor was using call the storm every 3 turns. It's going to be even worse if the scaling happens a lot on it.

    yeah, he spammed his green three times before I could kill him...once he scales higher, I think the only way to keep him off is to stun lock him.

    also, it seems that His Holyness seems to favour me today. he graced me with his yellow cover from a simple standard token pull..

    Beware the gifts of the unrighteous one. He seeks to weaken thine claws, that thou mayest fall before his petty tool. Abandon not thine faith--keepest forever sharp thine claws--or thou shalt find thyself kneel'd before his paunch.

    Hm, got only two tokens (East Europe sucks even more), but hey! - one of them is lazy red falsegod (I keep him for necessary PvE) and second is yellow Hood! Considering that I need both of them (although Hood will see so much more use), that's one of luckiest draws for me.

    I've lost the lazy thor fight 3 times now. That is absurd. Even with OBW focusing on healing and stealing.

    Hey Guys,

    I didn't realize the 1* tournament was alliance as well, but I was going to put in work anyway, i need the hood covers icon_e_smile.gif

    I checked out my thesis on the merits of starting off hard on simulator and it's bogus. No real benefit to start doing nodes at the first minute. I checked the point values and they were all low. This round I'll do it perfect (if work allows) and come in 2 hours before every reset and grind the nodes down.

    Btw, am I slow in clearing nodes or is this round a bit harder? Not just the scaling, but the combinations (everyone hates lazythor and his green batteries). It took me 2.5 hours and I usually do it in less then 2 hours.

    Cheers,
    NazgulPrime

    Best route is just to zerg rush him; I started with 3 G/Bla AP and matched all the greens ahead of him and then Tonked him with Ares. He'll usually get a Call off, but the buffs to Ares & Doom will see that off (and sometimes you'll get lucky and the Grenadier will drop a tile).

    I did try Classic Storm for the Windstorm retort, but as I have her specced, the buffs are such that she would only trigger on herself and not the other two. I've been running Bullseye as third wheel in a lot of these to blunt the attack.

    Now the BP/OBW/cMag fight is the one I'm suffering on - wiped me on both Hard and Easy. Finally broke through with a couple of boosts, Ares soaking damage while accumulating Green, then chain 2x Berserker Rage to down Mags, battle OBW healing until The Best There Is took her down. BP fell quite quickly with all the strike tiles left, but he did get an early Rage off to down Ares (which also helped fuel Patch's Green). Right, back to try that again in the Easy bracket....

    Yup. I woke up this morning, only did the Thor lvls. Left in top 10. Then I'll play again after the 12 hr reset. I'm thinking I'll do that Thor fight as little as possible now that I've already cleared it. Also, matches against wolverine variants aren't easily the only thing that can stop patch. Stupid 2 eyed wolverines
