    Simulation 5. Spidey and a blue generating goon.
    Can doom summon demons before his team is permanently cocooned?
    Will spidey be too dumb to track down the attack tiles?

    Answers yes and yes. I love this game.

    I have three OMGAWESOME moments to share.

    1) I was a kid when I saw Jim Lee's cover art for (classic) Magneto and as budding artist who loved the concept of illustrated stories (and not just children's books, either!), I was FLOORED. I wanted to be able to draw like that and I wanted to be able to write stories to go with them, too. Additionally, I fell head over heels into the world of comics, graphic novels, and animated television series based off of comics and Magneto eventually became my favorite character in the X-Men universe.

    Related to MPQ: After much resistance, I finally gave this game a shot... and pulled Classic Magneto - Translocation with my very first newbie-earned Heroic Token.

    Being that Mags is STILL my favorite after 20+ years, I almost can't explain just HOW much of a hair-raising this-is-so-cool moment it was to see him staring back at me.

    It was kind of like a Welcome Back moment and just for a moment, I was that kid again.

    2) Watching Juggernaut Headbutt my last remaining character (who had 49 HP left) to death... Only to keel over himself.

    The game counted it as a Win, I earned a Token for that node, and I earned the last points I needed to hold the place I wanted to in my bracket.

    I first stared, dumbfounded, and then burst out laughing so hard my sides hurt.

    3) Watching a chain cascade just go, baby, go.

    I LOVE moving that ONE gem to cause multiple cascades... And I love it even more when even MORE cascades happen on top of it - cascades I couldn't see, strategize for, or predict.

    Seeing it happen on the enemy side is satisfying, too, but in a horrifying way!
  • In NHB I used hulk/pun/cmags team for the last part.
    It's always rush for green to cast Judgements.
    I barely ever use Hulk's green. Most times I even forget such thing exists.

    In one of the games I had 11G and the board looked strange -- and it made me decide to Clap out of habit instead of judge and spam other abilities.
    The result was incredible, on top of the screen a blob with 10-15 blacks formed and exploded in unity. Thor got quite bruised just from that and following crits -- then I immediately sent out 2 molotovs from that AP and it was GG.

    My most satisfying scenario is definitely winning the battle of attrition when the battle comes down to two Dakens, and you just have to outwit the opponent.

    Also: Lolz at Bagman adding to his team's countdown tiles with one turn remaining, just so I can Rampage/Onslaught his team in peace.
  • Spiderman, Black Panther, and Patch walk into a bar...

    All Tied Up+ Berserker Rage + Best There Is + Rage of The Panther + Web Bandages = God Mode
  • In the one star tournament I just had a cascade on my very first move that killed the entire seed team

    I've done that before, but with like... level 85 characters, so it was only 4-5 matches, not level 50 characters, where it was over a dozen

    Bow to my cascade, I have become the AI

    I should have received a standard recruit pack the other day for getting 25 points in a lightning round. Rather than having to open a cover pack in the usual screen, the game baked me out to the round staging screen and, boom, I get a green power for patch-wolverine. Seemed kinda like a glitch but I'm not complaining.
    Are you sure that wasn't the Daily Reward? You're at about the right number of days for that.
    Hmm... I suppose that may have been the case. Extremely satisfying nonetheless
  • From the first day of the simulator. Fighting against Doom comes down to the wire, I win, receive recruit token.

    Open it to find a black Doom...

    Simulator round 3, IM35, analyst, thug. This thing is supposed to be hard because the analyst feeds Iron Man one red every round and the thug feeds one yellow leading to him throwing down ridiculously overpowered abilities.

    Hoods just sitting in my team. Every round it's -1 red, -1 yellow, -1 purple.
  • This was my epic moment...

  • Pulled 3 4-star characters from heroic packs in a 4 or 5 day period during the hulk event.

    Not a satisfying move for me, but had the AI do a single move that chained for 30 seconds or so. He got 60+ ap.
  • Just got the perfect timing early this AM in the Sim node with Patch/Loki/IM35. I was running Psylocke/BP/3*Thor.

    In the process of getting 12 black together for RageOTP, I cascaded a bunch of blue so I threw out a Bewilder for good measure. Got my 12 black with 1 tick to go on the CD, Launched Panther, gives Patch 5 green for a total of 8, and he matches green again - ready to Berzerk! Bewilder sucks away all his green and autoloads me a Call the Storm to wipe them all. Beware this picture of a hammer!
  • AI just thorned rose himself to his death and my victory in PvP!

    Awesome.

    I pity the defending player, lol...
  • Still love retribution.

    Playing a match in the hard simulator vs high level CStorm, GSBW and... I don't even remember who the third one was; using Modern Thor, the Hood and Mawkeye. Down to just widow on the other side, but a bad cascade has my whole team pretty injured and BW just got enough green for a sniper rifle shot. I'd put an Electric arrow on the board the last round, and this round made a match that cascaded into a 5x black match, extending my turn and giving me just enough black AP to cast Intimidation, dropping the electric arrow cd to 0, taking out BW and winning the match. It was awesome.
  • I was just facing lvl 230 goons with(out a boost) my 100 lvl thor and 70-ish captain america and OBW. All three members of my team had about 2k health. The granadier's countdown tile that would insta-down my whole team had one turn left and as I give up and make my last match-4, five blue tiles come down in a row resulting in an extra turn and enough blue to feed OBW. I successfully matched it away, winning the rest of the fight somehow.
  • I love beating level ~141 opponents with level 20 M.Widow, level 20 M.Storm, and level 69 Daken.
