    after some thought, I think I will attempt this as well. I will be opening Standards, Elites, Tacos and Event tokens as they come in - I need as high an ISO flow as possible to take care of my immediate needs in the interim (maxing KP and GR, and maintaining the 2* farm)

    So from here on, hopefully until the end of February (or this coming season end) I will hoard Heroic and LT tokens, and CP. I will re-evaluate at that time, if I can make it that long. my main goal is just to reduce my ISO deficit (considering only 4*)

    starting today, I have:
    commandpointsbig.png = 135
    token_legendary.png = 1
    token_heroic.png = 0
    iso8big.png = -2,850,517

    Great template for me to steal, thanks! Only tokens I've opened since Christmas were for 4* Carol.

    token_standard.png = 343
    elitetoken_icon.png = 155
    token_heroic.png = 154 + 5 10-packs
    token_legendary.png = 27
    token_event.png = 149
    token_taco.png = 177
    iso8big.png = 587,000 (champed Jessica Drew)
    heropointsbig.png = 8,935
    5* icon_blackpanther.png = 4
    commandpointsbig.png = 1,234

    I have a few Mr Fantastic covers out there: might level him if the numbers on his buff look good. I champed Howard and Jessica or would be sitting well over a million ISO right now.

    I've only gone up 2 Shield CLs in the last few weeks I think. Not opening tokens cuts that way down.

    Looking forward to any solution to 5* dilution in the Classics pool....

    So my plan is to hoard until about June. I've finally come to the realization that I can't progress any farther unless I have a **** ton of ISO. Too many covers just end up getting sold. I assume I can amass about 2 million ISO by June and that's when I'll open my tokens. I currently have about 70 token_heroic.png, 1x token_heroic.png 10 pack, 12 token_legendary.png and about 420 commandpointsbig.png
    I figure 2 million ISO should be enough to champ all or most of the 4* I pull from all the tokens. Now I just need the will power to last that long. 4 months is gonna seem like an eternity.

    I decided to hoard sometime in November with maybe a few tokens and cp already.

    token_legendary.png 81
    commandpointsbig.png 2450

    Looking like I'll drop it when Thanos is making his exit.

    Been hoarding since late December because I reached a point where I had seven 4*s at max covers and have been champing them one at a time. Down to just four max-covered now. Going to keep the CP and legendary tokens going but all standards, elites and heroics will be opened Saturday now that C4rol is in tokens.

    token_standard.png = 67 (have been opening these for ISO)
    elitetoken_icon.png = 138
    token_heroic.png = 212 + one 10-pack
    token_legendary.png = 18
    token_taco.png = 6 sweet (broke most of them open for healthpacks for Duck Season/Civil War) 40 savory
    iso8big.png = 196,628 (champed Howard, IW, Electra and Ant-Man since I started hoarding)
    heropointsbig.png = 3540 (cleared Civil War vault)
    commandpointsbig.png = 778

    I've set up my 2* farm with dupes for CStorm, MNMags, MNThor, OBW and Human Torch who all have between 2-6 covers on the dupes and have all other 2*s in the 130+ range. Hope to fully flip all of them with my pulls as well as add a handful of 3* covers and a couple of 4*s, ideally with one or two 14th covers so I know who to champ next.

    I'm in! I hoard my Event Vault tokens anyway, so happy to keep those out.

    Starting with 300 commandpoints.png , 5350 imcoin.png , 6 token_heroic.png , 1 token_legendary.png .

    Let's do it!

    1/4 of the way through February, and I'm sitting at:

    803 commandpoints.png , 9150 imcoin.png , 198 token_standard.png , 188 elitetoken_icon.png , 78 token_heroic.png , 6 token_heroic.png (ten packs), 35 token_event.png , 13 token_legendary.png .

    I pulled 195 taco tokens to get a PunMAX Blue, but that's about it. I'm getting an itchy trigger finger.

    My CP rate seems to fluctuate pretty wildly. This week was only 21 CP per day, although that's because I didn't get either of the 1200 point CP rewards from the offseason PVP events (BECAUSE THEY ARE BAD). I also only picked up 3 tokens. I think the slowed rate of tokens is because I'm done championing my 3*s, so I only get them from Crash of Titans, season rewards, and the occasional 4* champion reward.

    The plan is still to finish championing my covered 4*s (Spider-woman will be done in a few days, followed by Elektra, Mr Fantastic, and Drax.. and that's it unless I pull a 13th War Machine or Blade... wow..), then wait for the next featured 5* and consider blowing the hoard on him/her.

    After my recent purge I am pretty much down to normal tokens.

    token_heroic.png 25

    token_taco.png 14 (savory)
    token_taco.png 0 (sweet)

    Sweet vault had that last RHulk cover I needed. 130 tries later, no rhulk. icon_evil.gif

    I just rostered Mordo, I have no covers (!) in my queue, everyone is level maxed, and my 2*s are mostly getting close to maxed out again. It seems like an ideal time to start hoarding tokens again.

    I'm not sure I have the fortitude to hoard everything, so I'm not going to make rash promises. CP and LTs I will continue to save, and I'm going to try to add Heroics and Tacos to that. Beyond that, time will tell.

    Current stash:
    286,730 Iso
    95 HP
    1,175 CP
    37 LT

    After experiencing great luck pulling Mordo from one of the vaults with my "free" token for taking quite the beating from Kaecilius, I felt the urge to press that luck.

    I pulled the 10 LT's and 400CP I hoarded since the start of this thing (really only was doing PVE if I did PVP could have had more, but don't want that headache).

    Pulled 26 Latest total:
    20 4*... every single one was usable... so nice.
    6 5* ... also all useable, really nice. icon_blackwidow.pngicon_blackwidow.pngdrstrange_icon.pngdrstrange_icon.pngThanos_Icon.pngThanos_Icon.png

    Back to hoarding CP and LT's.

    Apparently I lack the fortitude even for that. The last taco vault had a Peggy cover (that I didn't pull), the current one contains 3 of the 8 3*s I haven't champed yet, and the next one will have Blade, who is at 1/5/5 and about to get another green from Gauntlet.

    And then I had a sucky day at work and pulled the 13 Heroics I'd saved in the past 4 days.

    I did get a 4* (Riri), and a couple of 3*s though, so #noregrets.

    I couldn't resist opening my tokens, icon_rolleyes.gif . I have opened more than 500 tokens of different types during the time I decide to start hoarding and now.
    I was hoarding to focus on champ my toons.
    I was able to champ 9 more star.pngstar.pngstar.png since the beginning of the year. So I am OK with the fact that I broke my hoard.
    Maybe it's just me, but the notification numbers over the recruit tab always disturb me.

    Average is 35 CP and 1 LT per day so just over 2 pulls per day

    I started holding on to my CP and my LT after 5* Black Panther went into the limbo before getting sent into LL. I like his powers, my 5* Strange is at 255 5/1/0, my 5* Thanos is at 255 1/3/0, and my 5* Black Widow is at 345 2/2/3 and I don't want to pump her up anymore or be tempted to. So right now I'm at.....

    8 token_legendary.png
    205 commandpointsbig.png

    When BP moves over, I'm gonna dump them all in LL.
