They even RNG the RNG! Amazing.

I had 1 taco token on my alt account and got a Yellow Strange cover. So 1 for 1 so far.

Annoyed at work I read this and thought F U world. I had quite a bit of coins saved up and I thought id try and win a Strange cover on the spur of the moment. I need a few blues I think to be able to champ him yet. Brought a ten pack. Nothing.

That’s fine. I’ll buy another one. Nothing.

………………………..

I went for a 3rd. “”WHY!!!!!!!!!!!! WHYYYYYYY!!!!!” you cry, “” are you insane? “” In hindsight Yes. Yes I am. Guess what the pull was……………………………………. Nothing.

30 pulls and not one Strange cover.

Anyone seen the film “ Falling Down “ ? I’m about there

Wait... You didn't succeed on something with a 60% chance of failure (0 strange covers), and now you're going to go on a racist rampage to protest minor indignities? Maybe try some deep breaths and reflection first.

It seems I´m very lucky with the colors... my vault is

Got 3 yellow covers with 169 tokens. He was 2/5/2, I champed him with CP.

My strange is 3/5/5 lvl134 but I use him all the time in PVE so I decided to spend my 48 tokens to try and get some champ levels. 1st pull taking her to 4/1/1 very happy with that. Unfortunately no strange but some champ lvls for silver, vision, panther, switch, mostorm and cage. Happy overall

130 pulls (so much for that hoard) and 2 Dr. Strange covers. TINYKITTY RNG TINYKITTY THIS TINYKITTY MOTHER TINYKITTY

Brings him up to 3/5/4 though. One more...

Also got 2K HP, 27.5K ISO, 75 Health Packs, 56 and 13 .


Did I get the LT or a ? No, no I did not. TINYKITTY RNG TINYKITTY THIS TINYKITTY MOTHER TINYKITTY


Edit : Well, all this iso and 4 covers allowed me to champ with 3 additional champ levels.

And BP's LT gave me a - so now I am slightly more happy.

Edit Edit: Also all this activity took me from Lvl 50.5 to 51.5.

Edit Edit: Pulled a with a reward token, now champed. Very happy again.

Always consider the odds before buying tokens. 5 covers out of 300 is 1.66%, purchasing a 10 pack gives you a 16.6% chance, 3 x 10 packs gives you a 50% chance, which is good, but not guaranteed. It's probably better to just spend 20 CP to buy the 3* Strange Covers you need.

Worse than that actually. It's been shown that buying a 10 or 40 pack, only half your purchase has a shot at a cover. The other half pulls from iso, hp & health packs.

If you open them you will see the first half the pulls are always the non-covers.

Will check my vault later today, when I'm home. But I have no worry. I already champed my Strange, by spending over 100 CP after I getting the last color I needed in Simulator. But by then I was already hoarding tokens for this vault, so I will open my little stash today.

I'm sorry, but I can't agree with you because of the laws of math and random number generation. 5 out of 300 prizes is a Dr Strange cover, which is 1.666% chance per pull. You then multiply that chance by the number of pulls you make, so 30 pulls gives you a 50% chance at 1 of the 5 Dr Strange covers. Random number generation does not favor the ISO, Health packs or HP, there's just a lot more of those rewards to get. 134 prizes out of 300 are HP, ISO or health packs, that's 44.66% chance per pull! So, don't be surprised if almost half of what you get is not a cover.

I wasn't talking about math in the slightest. For example, let's say you buy a 10 pack. From what people have reported (and my own experience) the first 5 results are pulling from the iso/HP/health rewards. As in - you have 0% chance of a cover because they are not considered. The last 5 pulls take from the rest and your math is applied for those.

Agree or disagree it doesn't matter.

This sounds like a conspiracy theory, take the tin foil hat off or show some actual evidence to support your wild claim.

Pope Belligerent

Been saving up for this one for a while now. I had about 40 tokens. Blew them all. Zero Strange.

I did pull three IFs though. So now I just need the ISO to champ him.

Nepenthe

Opened 116 tacos, got 3 Strange covers, the LT, the random 4* (CHulk) and some other 3*s that were useful. Pretty good haul.

Berserk_Al

Now that I opened my little stash, I pulled nothing Strange, but I did pull the last color I needed for Vision, a couple champion levels for Quicksilver, ten health packs, and several champion levels for my 2stars.

I've never been able to save up to 300 tacos. How do you do it?

I agree, is it completely random which colors will be made available in the vault for each 3* character?
My Strange is at
1
4

and of course the vault has 1 4

I just horde one set of taco tokens, so you still get to open some every other cycle.

I didn't think I would spend any tacos just to get Strange, but then I was using him in Jug's Heroic and even at 3/4/3 he was chipping away at everyone. I knew I had to champ the good doc. Took 140 pulls, but I finally got 2 . I'll buy the last cover with CmdPts and when his DDQ rolls around I'll get a LT. RoI!

I also pulled the LT from the vault and it got me a ! Strange all around!
