    It's a real shame it's Blade instead of IM40 since it's a heroic. Going to make this more of a chore than I had expected.

    The weekly buff list is wrong. Heavy Metal pvp is probably wrong too since Thor is the reward for BFF.

    Didn't mean the PVP event

    In your list of weekly boosted characters there is IM40 - therefore he should be available for Juggernaut Heroic. In game he isn't it's blade instead. I'd suggest therefore the weekly boosted list posted at the top of this event is wrong which is a shame as IM40 in a heroic would have been very useful.

    I see The Hunt as the next PvE.. this can only mean.. new character release right?

    I'm in H Juggs now and XFDP (4*) is present (and boosted) in both the main event and first sub, which wasn't listed in the weekly buffs.

    Looking at the IM40/Blad3 confusion, I'm wondering if Nick Fury is just an essential 4* for this event, and not part of the weekly buffs. I guess we'll find out when the preview for the first PvP event (with buff list) goes live.

    There will be a new character PvE next week Thursday night. At least based on timing. Since it isn't in the current PvE, it is either the PvE starting on Monday night or Thursday night. It will have been at least 2 weeks since last new character by then.

    Thanks for bringing up the Blade/IM40 discrepancy. Turns out there were some last minute changes to the lineup. I've gone ahead and updated the document.

    *(12/15/16) Brigby - Removed Nick Fury and Iron Man (Model 40) from Weekly Buffs. Added Deadpool (Uncanny X-Force) and Blade (Daywalker)

    IM40 is great no doubt, but Blade when also using a buffed Dr. Strange is fantastic in this event.
    Since few opponents use red, Blade quickly adds strikes to the board, adding to Strange's Flames, for tons of extra damage per turn.

    While you guys are tweaking the lineups you need to take into account who the villains are in the story. It's a Heroic event with a limited roster and one of the 4*s we're supposed to be able to use is the villain in half of the nodes this sub! It's especially bad since Kingpin is an older 4* and probably one of the most covered in that list by the player base.

    Stop giving us boosted characters that we can't use. OK, Wolverine in EotS can't be helped, but the rest shouldn't be that hard to check.

    I was also feeling the annoyance of having Kingpin locked out. But imagine being a new player (if such a thing still exists) and seeing Juggernaut as one of only two available 1* in. . . Juggernaut Heroic. Seems like a real no-brainer to keep that one from happening.

    The Juggernaut thing I thought was a bit odd (IM35 would have made more sense)
