Wrecking Crew Break Room 20/20

Unknown

5 more hours to go until Round 1 ends and we're doing quite well.

Like Kennard said...

Basics Sim: #7 (though this will be a loooong battle)

Easy Sim: #5 (Let's maintain this spot if we can!!)
Hard Sim: #8 (Climbing up isn't impossible. If we can average 1000 points per person, we'll be in the top 5.)

Unknown

We're doing amazing guys! and welcome to all of our new additions!

Top 10 is great, but obviously top 5 is even better. Work hard in both areas, but I would suggest focusing a little more on the easy mode - since that race is a lot closer and we're more likely to get top 5 there

as a side note, i asked the forum admins to change my forum handle, so i'm now ybanga instead of afro thunder - to keep things simpler - i asked yesterday and it was apparently an easy thing to change, so anyone else interested in doing the same send me a pm

Unknown

Easy mode for last couple matches. Aye aye.

Unknown

We fell out of the Top 10 in both events, but top 25 in both is still nice. Gives each member 4000 iso and 50 HP.

Unknown

Still, it's a great start.

I'm going to take a break tonight. All my useful heroes are down right now anyway. I'll let the recuperate and go through all the stages tomorrow with high points.

Though... I might try to get through at least the main path at least once tonight if I can, otherwise it'll be impossible to claim the high reward by tomorrow.

Unknown

So, the 1* PVP also has alliance rewards. However, my Hood is maxed, and my MNMagneto is still missing a purple, so I'd rather score in the lower tiers.

With Top 50 alliance rewards all being the same again, I suppose we should be able to still get Top 50 even if I don't push for a personal high score. Unless we're shooting for 1 of course...yeah right...

Unknown

I'll be pushing for a high for the PvP since I only have 1 Hood cover. Can't say I mind having more. .... though, I really need to develop my Mag's purple too. Really hard decision on this one.

Unknown

Don't need any of the rewards from the 1* so I was going to ask how desperate people are for Hood covers so I could work out if I needed to care about the event .

Worth bearing in mind a yellow hood cover is one of the most awkward to get unless you're good at getting 1-2 in lightning rounds, it's DEFINITELY worth getting his yellow to 5 cause it's a massive upgrade to the power and his black is meh and Hood is a REALLY useful character.

Having said that I don't have much enthusiasm for the event cause it's a PITA and I don't need anything from it. So lemme know how much ppl want that hood cover cause it wouldn't be that much effort to get a top 100 alliance placing kind of score.

Unknown

I think we'll have to wait and see a bit. It's possible that just having 20 members with 300 points each is good enough for the Hood covers. His yellow covers are certainly useful though, I can vouch for that. I'll go to 300 at least for the token and then I'll make sure to get Purple Mags.

Unknown

I always get at least 300 for the token so I'll make sure to contribute any more if I can. Ended up finishing first in my standard simulator! The new one is going to be a bit tougher (that thor with two green generating characters sucks so hard). Powered up Doom is amazingly fun if you can get the blacks you need. Sketching out a banner for us right now (well, on my breaks at work) so I should have something in a couple of days if not sooner!

Unknown

I got a couple of top 2 rewards for the simulator subs, so either first or second can be hard to tell with updating lag. Should be able to do well in this set with less pain cause they aren't finishing at 4 am UK time . I'm about 300 in the lonestar tourney now and I guess I can aim for a bit more if needed for alliance rankings. It's an annoying tournament since there are no 1* healers though. Having to go back to the prologue to heal drains my will to live

Unknown

I got up to 300 in the 1* event, so I'll probably stop playing it now, but I'll have to monitor it a bit to get Top 75, possibly losing some matches on purpose.

I opened my token, saw the golden reward screen and got eally excited... Yellow Ironman which I don't want to level beyond the 3 covers I currently have. Tinykitty. Ah well, 500 iso is better than 250 iso, I guess.

Unknown

Wow, we're really behind in this, though I expect there's going to be some late players. On my end, I've only gone through each stage once and I'll do a major rubber banding catch up later, though I'll have trouble making sure of my standings. Of all days this could have ended, Wednesdays are my busiest and I won't have a chance to check on things at all.

I probably won't touch the lone star until late tonight and sometime tomorrow.

Probably doesn't help that the new subs are kinda tough to get through, have started scaling fairly hard and have a somewhat underwhelming villain as the super buffed and essential hero .

At the moment i'm nearly 10% of our normal simulator score (11.6k/125.6k) and over 10% of our hard score (16.8k/155.8k) so hopefully a fair few ppl are waiting to rubber band and not too many ppl are struggling with those painful nodes (which I can understand.... the matchups suck).

My personal favourite is I got an offscreen cascade to a blue match against the Daredevil node and got Ares stunned for SEVEN turns. Since he was my only proper damage dealer that certainly slowed things down .

Unknown

Really? I have a weak Doom, but I find the buffed version to be a good tank and those strike tiles are downright amazing. Get two out and I'm dealing 1k damage a turn. The hard part is the build up, but once he gets them out, my match finishes in two turns or so.

But dang that node with Thor and two green producers is tough. I keep having to hope that they'll use it for rocket countdowns instead of his storms. XD

Yeah I gave up hoping that it wouldn't be used for Storm. Doom has been fantastic, but I'm avoiding that particular scenario as much as I can. My black widow can only take so many hits and getting blues has been hard in that one so far. I've been getting good gains since I got home, but this one looks like it'll be a bit tougher for us.

Unknown

I haven't had too much trouble with the fights so far, but just timing is bad and I don't have time to spend. My team has been with Ares, Doom, and alternating between Widow and the two Storms depending which of them is locked out. I usually end with my health pretty low and need to go back into the prologue to heal between fights.

All my nodes are 230, so having to get 12 black AP up to do any damage kind of sucks . I need to steal/stun really and doom doesn't do nearly enough damage on his own, so I'm running another damager with him which only leaves 1 slot for heal/control against a bunch of really nasty bad guys.

Having said that I can clear every node, just need to use spiderman (who I wasn't using when the bad guys were in the 100-140 kind of range).

kennardfr

My nodes are beatable but I focus on high points one (the ones with Doom mainly). I use OBW (or Hood when she's out), Wolverine (or Ares when he's out) and Doom. The only one that truely bothers me is the one with Thor, same as everyone. He spams call of the storm every two turns, except sometimes when one of the goons manage to put one counter. If I can take him down before the second storm I can heal it without problem. A second storm is already very hard, third is wipe.

Unknown

Found my strategy for the Thor node, but it'll cost you unless you're willing to risk it. I take doom in with Storm Classic and Marvel Now Magento. I've used those two together in a couple of things and love the outcome. Magento's purple lets you build up more blues and you just need enough blues to stun Thor. I just boost my Blue and Purple colors so that I have some going into the fight. Using this I was able to take down that node several times before a call of the storm ever hit me. I'll just use this to rubberband my way back up each time since that node is worth the most. Then, all I have to do is heal doom and switch back to my regulars (OBW, Ares, Wolverine, Bullseye) and take down the other nodes.

Checked our ranks this morning and we're at least in the top 50 right now. Almost top 10 in the 1* event
