I wonder if the level gonna reset.... after this sub event.

Yes. But if memory serves it bounced back quicker each time. Now they may have tweaked it, or we may be in trouble.

Yeah if they haven't changed it then I'm going to be seeing a lot of 230's very very soon.

I'd challenge the idea that the sub-bracket leader almost never changes. With rubberbanding, it's extremely difficult to hold that lead. There must be somebody that isn't playing the optimal refresh game and charges on ahead.

The former sub-bracket leader will almost undoubtedly get the lead back during the next refresh, but there is almost certainly a time where somebody takes the throne temporarily.

Subevents change pretty frequently. After a few days, the main event should stabilize a bit though. That was actually one of my favorite things about Simulator. At the start of Round 4 I was almost guaranteed a top 10 finish. Unlike other events where you could drop from 1 to 20 overnight if you missed the final refresh.

So, what teams are you guys playing? Psyduck+Obw+Thor is doing the trick for me. Psy gets the attack and strike tiles, obw steals and heals and thor brings the yellow+green thunder combo.

I run Psylocke, Patch, OBW. For the nodes where i'm fighting against another Wolverine or Widow, I typically replace that character with Super-Ares.

Ares is a beast in this event.

Mostly Psyduck / Patch / Hood, with a dose of the Spider for healing from time to time, and Classic Mags for the occasional goon fight (and the nodes where I'm up against Wolvie).

Level 92 Psyduck with that crazy boost tanks a lot of colours, so she needs healing every fourth battle or so.

I usually choose from Psylocke/OBW/Ares/Punisher. Works wonders. I assume Patch could take the role of Punisher, but mine is a bit behind (more than 60levels).

I think the enemy combinations got harder in the later rounds last time. So far they haven't been too much of a problem, but levels are starting to get a bit high.

I'm running Psyduck + OBW + AWolv, and subbing in Thor when needed. I find SuperWolf's 4100-damage red to be much more useful than Normal Thor's powers.

P.S. - I love the alliance logo!

I'm mainly running psy/obw/thor... With some wolvie/ares when needed, as my ares isn't that leveled up. Currently #1 in part 1 and I think 18 or 19 in part 2. Just ran out of health packs, so, waiting.

Unknown

Ready for that 3*** Gold Ares (Age of Ultron) now.... A shame that movie isn't due until 2015.

Psylocke + Ares/MThor + OBW/MThor here.

300 damage per Green on Onslaught and 2900 Sunder + Psylocke strike tiles is just plain wrong. But, I'd do it again.

This, using Modern Thor. Been having great fun with it with plenty of versatility in the team. I presume stun lock may become the order of the day when the 230 walls appear, but I might have a crack with OBW/Thor/X anyway - can't do any harm if I lose and they get taken out, as they are not in my main rotation normally.

Ever since i got my c mags covered up 5/5/3 and leveled up i stopped using spidey. Pun/c mags/lazy thor or whomever for the third. Really gonna miss mags when they nerf him.

Unknown

Yeah, same. Where there's been free choice, I have been using Classic Magneto next to OBW and Modern Thor. His skillset is so versatile, brings a lot to the party. I'm really not sure why I don't use him more often.

Unknown

Hood Psylocke Ares has been tearing through the battles for me.

Unknown

Strike tiles and Psylocke bleed tile been working wonderful, no complaints here.

Unknown

Simulators are feeling like the calm before the storm for the past few hours. I'm currently in the top 5 since the morning with my nodes refreshing an hour before it all ends. I'm curious as to where I'll finish...

Also, the buffed Ares makes me hope they don't make gold characters out of everyone. Green & yellow would be monstrous at lvl 141 if they are currently dishing out ~3K damage / 10 AP with Ares in the 120 range.

yeah...he's great for getting blue when you need it for obw/cstorm. Just bypassed him for this for now, since my mthor is higher level. At least this event has got me to start dumping iso into psylocke. She is actually pretty awesome as she levels up.

Unknown

Hood + Psy + BP, Ares, C. Mags and Spidey rotating for the last spot. So glad I fed Psylocke early on! Psi-Katana is the bee's knees!
