    I can't wait being beaten up by multiple Carnage & Red Hulk teams in "Nefarious Foes". icon_rolleyes.gif

    More Dark Avengers? It's been nothing but since near the start of December, even the ddq today is throwing up dark avengers, can they not have a holiday or something already

    *(1/6/17) Brigby - Updated Versus events, Story events, and Deadpool's Dailies

    Combined Arms with IM40 broken - wow the timing - Demi really like to create chaos out of a mistake don't they

    On that same notion though a heroic with all dark avenger (except daken) broken too. Fair trade off if you ask me. Finally a heroic where the advantage is too the players

    Yes! I just received an email a few minutes ago regarding the character update for the new Soul Gem Season. I'm formatting that post as we speak. icon_e_smile.gif

    Thanks for the PVE update! It's good to know which characters you get as placement reward.

    Awesome, Moon Knight is not being skipped! Eager to see how my 1/3/4 Marc does (and hopefully I'll get more covers for him by the time he comes around)
    Moon Knight should be awesome in the Crash as long as you have plenty of green covers.
    I'm a little surprised Sentry is essential in Meet Rocket and Groot, but I suppose we May see more heroes/villains mix in the essential nodes.

    To be fair Meet Rocket and Groot is probably the story event with the least Dark Avengers (at least besides Prodigal Sun)
    I'm more intrigued by the fact that my top 2 4 Stars (X-23 and Cyclops) are Powered up and all of the Powered up 3's (besides Sentry) are Champions on my roster
    Should make for some interesting scaling though

    I don't Think Enemy of the State has any Dark Avengers, nor does Hearts of Darkness. The real Point is that I don't Think we have ever had a mix of hero and villain essential characters in a story event that wasn't Deadpool vs MPQ, Simulator, Gauntlet or Prodigal Sun.

    well HoD has that one node in Mephisto's realm..
    to be fair Sentry is a villain who thinks he's a hero...kind of like Eddie Brock

    I'm assuming we'll see it more going forward with the changes to the character restrictions based on opponents.

    Yeah, that thought crossed my mind too. Considering how rare villain cover rewards have been I Think it's a good thing.

    Nefarious Foes giving new Carol covers for placement kind of sucks right? Have we ever had non-featured PvP give out covers for a brand new character?
