  • Ugh, of course It's a blue IW. Those seem to be rare these days, I've already sold one yellow and one green yet am sitting at 2 blue. Hopefully I can get an easy enough bracket, I'm guessing not many people have her at high level.

    You were the one who told me level mine!

    Ooh, neat. I get three more Psylocke covers.

    I need to resist the urge to buy a final 13th BP cover. The instant I do, bam. He shows up as a reward.

    You know it. I'm in the same boat, and you just know he will show up in the next PvP once you drop the 1250 HP on that last cover.

    I _was_ going to coast to a relaxed top 10 for my final red Psyduck... then noticed the blue Baglady, which many of us "need". So much for a casual tourney :s

    Well at least with this ending on a European afternoon, I can cut wayyyyy back on shield expenses.

    Mine is 5/2/4, so she hopefully will be complete at the start of the tournament. Plan to pair her with Hood and Punisher probably. I am torn whether or not I should level her; I have her at 40, but have the Iso to bring her to max level. Maybe I will settle on a compromise and just bring her to 60 something... For the people who leveled her up long ago, do you still you use her? I know she is squishy and bad on defense, but heard she can do well on offense. But she seems kind of underpowered compared to black panther. icon_neutral.gif

    Nope never use her anymore. mine is at 132 ATM and I have 7 other 141s, I never have reason to bring her out or finish leveling her. The AI can't play her effectively, but she is beasty on attack with her board control.

    Pshh, some of us want our digital trophies to be as well endowed as possible. icon_e_smile.gif

    I'm going to get squashed probably...Cant even sub in my healer if I need to. Punisher Cmags workhorse tourney.

    Ok walkyourpath, I am going to wait for you to tell me that your in a bracket, then I will join after it's full. Sound good? I have had enough of this hah. icon_e_smile.gif

    My GSBW is trash tier and I don't want a hard bracket.

    I'll post here when I join, lol. Don't want to have to get a restraining order on you! Will join sometime tomorrow, so if you get in tonight we'll be parted too. Fare thee well, bracket buddy!

    Let me know when you join Chimaera, I'll keep you company, no reason you should go cold turkey with your S.H.I.E.L.D buddies
  • I'm on the tomorrow sometime plan too, which makes sense on why I see you so often. As long as you don't go for the 1100 progression Clint your welcome to join me :p
  • My last Psylock red cover after my last GSBW green cover... yes please icon_twisted.gif

    Is blue really the rarest cover? It's the only 4* color I have maxed, which I assume was from the shield tanking era

    I'm pretty sure it is. I abused that era, as well, and I only have 4 in blue. One was from an elite tourney top 3. I know all of the shield guys were pretty stoked about the reward, as well.

    Y'know...if everyone starts upping their Shield Simulator pts, we could squeeze out some more GSBW covers for us all... icon_razz.gif
    Hah! I needed HP to shield if necessary in First Avenger, but I was so ISO and HP-starved thanks to the Unstable Iso-8 (why saddle poor Johnny with such a badly executed event, nooo, he'll never live down the shame T_T), that I actually went to Shield training and got the 1500 prog reward (100 HP), which put me at #1, also got some cHawkeyes (rebuilding him since I want to have lulz with him and Hood, I don't care if this sounds dirty, they have a 4,5x crit multiplier, so Hood does tons of damage with a well placed crit) and of course ISO.
    Was lonely out there on the very top, started having really difficult matchups only worth tiny points, so I called it a day and tanked back to oblivion.

    Green GSBW is the stuff of legends, verily.

    Edit: thankfully this event has a green Ares at 600 pts, finally my 2* roster will be cover-complete and with perfect builds to boot, not counting the dynamic duo (Bullseye & Bagman).
  • This is the first time I've used my gsbw (now 1/1/3) and even with the low covers she has been amazing.

    With cmags the hood and her, you have massive board destruction and a generation with the whole rainbow, this team is amazing on offense.
    5 blue and a decent board and you're set to take very little damage and win quite quickly.

    ^ I've been running Punisher/Spidey to cover the rainbow (strong red and green, GSBW does not possess...), but your set up is also nice, considering how much I like playing Mags/Hood. It's just that Widow's purple is unlikely to be used when you have Mags' nuke, while her red is impossible to use with Mags unless you somehow cascade into 20 red. With Punisher and Spidey she at least fuels Punny's strikes.
  • I am unsure why people say GSBW is good. I believe it is the lack of green covers for me but she is **** at level 66 even when buffed (2/2/3). I have spent a lot of iso just now to level her and it was one of my worst decisions so far.

    Well, yeah, it's pretty much the 2 man tourney again right after the lazyCap tourney, since most people do not have many covers for both and both are slowish compared to most other characters. So choose your 2 men wisely and be sure to play in Desert a lot, maybe you can pull Sniper Rifle once or twice during the tourney (this game needs achievements... "Crotchkicked the opponent 200 times" - yum!)

    I think I should start playing the lottery today.
    After sitting on one pink cover for forever, I got one from the Event token today.
    Coupled with the alliance reward, GSBW is now cover-maxed at 5/5/3. Hardly the greatest build, but usable.
    Now debating whether to put some ISO into her to get her up from 65.

    Aside: Other reason for playing the lottery: pulled a red Lazy Captain from the daily deal red ISO token.
