    Doesn't having icon_deadpool.pngicon_spidergwen.png this way round say Deadgwen rather than Gwenpool? icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I certainly have no idea what you're referring to, and I absolutely did not go back and edit the post to reflect what is clearly the most logical way to refer to Gwenpool.

    Also: Deadgwen =

    I forgot that sim has that iso reward on the last node. Great event for double iso.

    **** A, 2* bullseye is an essential? dang it

    I have to say, having a boosted, champed Devil Dino, some 5*'s and no one else over Level 180 (unboosted) really hasn't screwed up my scaling as bad as I feared, so far. I'm guessing that PVP MMR might be a different story, but at the moment, so far so good...

    I know but then once I got to 2* Bullseye reward at 5100 pts, I was able to go back and do that essential.

    Your results may vary, but a team of Thor (mine's 2/4/1), Devil Dino and Hood cleared it to CP without too much problem. I'll admit, I'm as surprised as anyone, but it worked...

    i'd be fine with that. my level 106 bagman is way better than my 15 bullseye that I just happened to luck into with a standard token pull just a bit ago

    ...what the heck. It worked. Why did this work? I just did it and I still don't know.

    No it couldn't. Bag-man is never an essential character.

    That Iceman/Witch/Storm node is pure evil. And a Billy Club teamup to boot.

    And I have a champed Thor for pete's sake. Winnable? Sure. Fun? Not a bit.

    Sub 2 has you against IM40, Kamala, MoonKnight.

    4hor was my first champed 4 star, and I've used her tons with IM40 & Kamala. Without them, I'm completely lost who to pair her with.

    Luke Cage and Iron Fist for 3-stars?
    Totally Awesome Hulk gives you extra charged tiles...pair with 3-star Cyclops to use him to generate more red for a bit Smite?
    Deadpool and Scarlet Witch for MEGA-WHALES once you hit 14 purple?

    That's an ugly team to go against... IM40 gets a recharge off, and you're in a world of hurt. Looks like the key should be to deny yellow first for recharge prevention, then green.

    ...so...Thoress, Devil Dino and Hood cleared it again to CP. Hood fell in the last clear to Kamala, but otherwise zero health packs used. I may be the luckiest guy in MPQ, or maybe incredibly stupid teams are paying off this anniversary.

    Again, this shouldn't work, but if all else fails....
