120CP when you're dying on the vine.

Red Hulk is 5/2/5. A purple and a red are dying on the vine. Nearest one expires in 11d 18hrs. Currently have 52cp and can most likely grind out to 120 before that dies. My only other 4* champs are IMHB, Ant and Peggy. If I nail 900 in this pvp XFDP will also get champed.

So if you made the CP would you spend it or take whatever RNG threw at you, knowing Rhulks time will come and continue with the 4* I had or is RHulk so top tier you would pay up?

Any of you wise sages know when a green is coming in pve or pvp icon_e_biggrin.gif

    With two covers expiring buy the missing cover and champion - RHulk is a beast and you won't see his cover in PVP in time for sure.

    Rulk = top tier. buying the one cover you need? yes.

    i wouldn't do it for a less than top tier character, and i wouldn't do it if i had to buy more than one cover.

    also, only with covers dying on the vine.

    but that's just me, in a very narrow set of circumstances. only had to do it once (HB) and don't regret it at all.

    I'm debating doing it for XFDP so I don't waste the champion reward from 3* DP.

    I mean, ordinarily I'd go for the six LTs instead, but I don't think I'm terribly likely to get an XFDP purple or black from those.

    I would buy the rulk cover because he's top tier. I wouldn't let the 2 expiring covers affect your decision that much - it's only two champ levels.

    Seems unanimous, when I hit 120 cp I will buy icon_lol.gif

    Unless by some miracle they throw a green in the 1 day vaults!

    Rather broach the question with a new thread, rhulk or Cyclops to champ when both are at 13 covers?

    good question.... that's a good problem to have, and you win no matter which you choose... but gun to my head - I go with Rulk. I've had him champed for a few seasons longer than I have Cyc, so my opinion might be biased, but with boosted/maxed Rulk, it is an enlightening experience. pair with Switch and/or IM40 and it's just so much fun. his AOE is just so damned devastating.

    I don't know your situation though. if Cyc is closer and would cost less ISO, then maybe go with him. or look at who else you have and which of the two would work best with your high end roster. i.e. if you already have good Y/R/B users, then go with Rulk.

    I have iceman, fury, thing, hulkbuster, and ant man champed. So really could use a strong black user more than any other color at the moment but

    My maxed 4s are rulk, cyclops, chulk, deadpool, and mr. Fantastic.

    Both cyk and rulk are at 180 with a 14th rulk expiring in less than 24 hours but am 4000 iso shy of maxing him let alone champing him and a 48 hours sub is happening at the worst time.

    I will receive a 14th cover from my 182 vision eventually, which is I questioning whether cyk or rulk to champ.

    Edit: And like clock work, I pull vision 183 from a vault token...gonna have to sit on that one for two weeks. Least we have double iso coming next...

    4000 iso is nothing. that's less than a DDQ-worth of ISO. while the 2-day Hunt sub is going now, don't forget lightning rounds start today. that will provide a modest ISO boost. i would try to get the ISO to champ Rulk since you have a cover on the vine, do it all the way up until it expires. also consider selling a 2* to fund the Rulk cost.

    That was on top the champ fee...but got him champed regardless, got lucky with 4 intercepts worth 5,000, the alliance bonus, and then rewards from tokens and daily deadpool this morning.

    Now to begin the long trek at champing cyclops, though I'm gonna wait til vision ' s 183 cover is about to expire to give me a bit more time. Champing Rulk was a rush job, and did not enjoy it one bit.
