Here is my current roster- what are the next roster moves I should do? (Add to roster, upgrade character, level up character, remove from roster). I have enough hero points currently to add one character to my roster, and 50 HP from being able to add a second one.

Wolverine (Astonishing)- level 64- 4/5/4
Thor (Marvel Now)- level 62- 5/4/4
Storm (Classic)- level 59- 5/4/2
Black Widow (Original)- level 59- 5/3/2
Captain America (Modern)- level 58- 4/4/5
Ares (Dark Avengers)- level 58- 4/3/5
Punisher (Dark Reign)- level 58- 1/3/4
Moonstone (Dark Avengers Ms. Marvel)- level 57- 2/4/4
Magneto (Marvel Now)- level 53- 3/4/3
Iron Man (Model 35)- level 50- 5/5/3
Storm (Modern)- level 50- 5/3/5
Black Widow (Modern)- level 40- 5/5
The Hood (Classic)- level 30- 1/1/2
Daredevil (Classic)- level 20- 1/1/1
Psylocke (Classic)- level 18- 0/1/1

    I would concentrate on getting your two stars up to level 85. I wouldn't be putting any ISO into your three stars until you have a solid 2 star team. Wolvie, Thor, Storm & OBW should all be at 85' as you will continue to use them as you grow your three star heroes.

    Keep in mind that when a three star gets to level 85 it will have the same health as a 2 star but will do significantly less damage than a 2 star. In fact it's not until level 100 where a 3 star outstrips its 2 star equivalent. So whilst you are maxing your 2 star team keep watching out for covers for your three star team.

    I've found some success by getting 3 three stars up to 100 or so. I'll now pick one of them to bring up to 120, then I'll bring up the other two, and I'll do the same to get up to 141. I've been working this with a main team of Punisher, Patch & Magneto. I've also got a Spider-man who I don't see any advantage of levelling beyond 100.

    You've a Punisher already started, who's a great all round hero, I'd look to making him your first 100 character as a replacement for Wolverine.

    Keep on adding roster slots. I still see some 3* characters that you don't have, and buying covers likely won't make your team that much better.
  • Hero Points are for Roster slots, and Shielding in the events that matter to you. Don't purchase tokens unless you intend to cash liberally to gain an advantage.

    For now, as with what Badlands said, focus on leveling your 2*s to L85.

    Gain the ISO through Lightning Rounds, you tend to see a decent amount of seed teams.
    In general after 5 seed teams you should get (140 + 250 + 5*(135) = 1,065 ISO. Getting 1K ISO every 2 hours with next to no effort (under 5 minutes) will allow you to gain sufficient ISO to level your characters.

    I'd refrain from leveling more than 3 2*s to L85 though, unless you use them liberally it seems like a waste to level them to that level considering you can only use 3 Heroes on a team.
  • Thanks for the advice, guys. I now have a team that is consistently generating spots in the top 50 of PVP tournaments and strong enough to get into the PvE tournaments for the 3* covers, so the HPs are starting to come and I can start adding a cover here or there. I've found it's huge to get the progression rewards for 3* characters in PvE because you can get a few (I got several Punisher covers during the last Hulk event). I didn't play that much today and I did manage to keep getting my 2*s up a bit. Thor is now level 64 and OBW and Classic Storm are now 50 and 59, respectively. Which 3* should I drop everything and try to get if it's a prize in a tournament with what I've currently got?

    I'm in the 2*-3* transition phase and can easily clinch Top 5 in every PVP tourney so allow me to say this... You never know which 3* will be useful, so as Ash Ketchum says... gotta catch 'em all.

    That being said, only invest ISO into the 3*s when they're the featured character for an active event, and refrain from leveling low tier 3* characters such as Daredevil (or at least not too high).
