So I spent my CP horde and got 48 Strange tokens (well 1x was from the Vault, so I only bought 1175 CP worth). Since this seems to be a thing to give results of massive buys....

I have literally been saving my CP from July 2nd, so about 4 months worth of saving CP. I'm transitioning and maxing out all of my 4*'s that I could Champion, so there was no need for spending my CP. I liked how 5*Strange is (the potential in PvE), so I went all in.

Here's my results:

Total of 8x Strange, 3-Blue, 3-Pink, 2-Yellow (the one I like the most of course...)

I was able to Champion RHulk and Thing from these covers. Sold ~4 (which isn't bad for the number of covers I bought. Working to Champ Elektra now, then X-23 next.

So 8 covers at 10% draw rate is really awesome (for once for me!) so no complaints from me spending my horde.

Did anyone else (besides whales I guess) spend there horde on the Strange tokens, and did you get close to the 10% draw rate, or higher?

    I love these threads, congrats on all the Strange pulls. I'm really enjoying the 3* version so far. He really seems like he is going to be amazing against symbiote and ultron goons and Carnage. Anybody with cheap powers really.

    I don't have the self-control for a 'horde.'

    But I did three pulls of the Sanctum Sanctorum token, redeemed one Latest LT after the Cyclops Crash, and bought another Latest when I hit 25 CP tonight. From those five, two Strange pulls.

    So...40%? icon_e_biggrin.gif

    I did close to this. Pulled 700 worth of cp on his tokens to end with 3-2-3 Strange (awesome rate). Later I have pulled my stashed 18 latest and 500 cp on latest. Ended up with 2 more covers for him and one for Widow (I guess very bad rate to compensate). Overall he is 4-3-3 and I am OK with it. Sadly at lvl 300 he doesn't his as hard with the skill as the 3* counterpart (also 3 covers but boosted to lvl 189).

    Along the way I had to sell at least 15 covers. I will champion X23 with 3 covers waiting. And I will have to sell 3 Quake yellow as she is not fully covered. What made process OK (rate for the second part was horrible) is the yellow Peggy cover. She is now 2-5-4 and will get some iso soon.

    I have been inspired to hoard cp and wait for a character specific vault to spend it all on.

    Sadly not as fortunate.... blew nearly 900 CP and got 2 purpleflag.png and 1 yellowflag.png

    so a little under the 10% draw rate... but not a statistical outlier...

    Mind you I then blew 29 Legendary tokens and got 1 blueflag.png and 2 yellowflag.png so that sort of swung the other way.... not to mention the redflag.png and purpleflag.png Black Widow as well...

    I don't want to talk about it.

    Congrats on your fantastic draw rate though!

    No, not Ultron goons. They only have passives, and purple is too expensive to work as a cleanser. Yellow Passive is good against most Countdown minions, except the Hammer one with Deadly Shot (power is actually a passive).

    Yeah, I'm going to keep spending my LT's I earn, hoping to grab another Strange cover (hopefully Yellow, haha). I've got 4 now, another 2 with the next CoT (Thing+Prof X).

    I've been tempted to do that sometimes, but a specific character vault will be a 5*. And honestly, I could get 13 covers for a new 5* and still not have the ISO to level them up...
    5* are kinda irrelevent to me right now...

    I got 5 covers out of 25 pulls. 1/2/2.
    Feels no fortunate.

    ****, good call, I forgot those were passives. On a positive note I hate them now more than ever. icon_lol.gif
