Strange hoards

I've been saving LTs and cp for a long time, waiting for Strange. When he entered the token pool last night, I finally dove in (I skipped Sanctum because I still needed Natasha and Black Bolt as well). I ended up cashing 180 LTs (or cp equivalent), and cashed 20 classics as well afterwards. What did I get?









Obviously, no complaints on the 5* pull rate (17%, though that still leaves me well below 15% since the draw rate changed). I was a bit worried about pulling a sixth red for IM46 when I pulled the classics; glad it didn't come.














(blacks from consecutive pulls)

























Can't complain about the 4*s either. I had 27 champions; while I got slightly fewer covers for those champions than expected, I was able to champion Ghost Rider this morning to come out ahead (especially since I already had another cover in queue) on that measure.

My only complaint (though one expected) is that I got eleven Natasha covers before getting more Strange or Black Bolt. Not a big deal, but it means that I stopped pulling tokens until I can champion her (she started 0/0/2), which will take a while. I was hoping to get thirteen Strange before getting eleven of her, so I could champion him first. Ah, well, it was a long shot.

Other than that, I'm extremely pleased; I can champion Black Bolt in a week or so, then Natasha. Then I can try to max out Strange; hopefully there won't be a new 5* by then so I can add onto Black Bolt a bit more. We'll see.

Congrats on being bothered enough to type all that out, it's a very pretty mosaic.

This is infuriating to me because I saved for over 2 months, pulled 161 tokens and got barely more than half the covers that you did.....





So we've put in similar amounts of time/money yet you have nearly twice as much to show for it, and why? It's just luck, plain and simple. It's such a **** model. It wouldn't bother me if I could just go play some bonus puzzle challenge mode or something to grind out CP, but the only mechanism I have to catch up is to spend more, and **** that. Sorry to take it out on you, but this is just a perfect example of how even over a 2 month period just a slight difference in RNG can have a huge impact on the progress that players make.

Congrats on your pulls, I'm glad at least someone is making up for my **** luck.
