Heroic Venom PvE Discussion Thread 4/10 - 4/17

Puritas

welp
got pushed to #4 in my hard bracket
because my scaling got way out of hand near the end, and I just couldn't compete with the other 3 guys using m.storm/im35/1-cover HT.

Stay classy

5k ISO in boosts and 15 +3 all colors down the drain woohoo.

I don't mind getting 4-6 LazyThor covers

I'm terrified of what the last-minute grind for the alliance is going to do to my MMR. I'm sure we're going to be seeing a lot of 400s.

I worry about that too. I did a lot a number of 200ish point missions towards the end. That's definitely not going to help with scaling...

I wish they could leave the event open for a few minutes after the end of it. Sometimes I am playing until the last second for placement and do not pay attention to the number in the corner of the screen. I'd like to be able to see how everything ended up.

This would not work for events that have rounds starting up as the previous one ends however.

God I hope blue is just top 100 for the next event.

Everybody hates on MHawkeye, but man, he was quite capably filling my X spot in HT/AWolv/X. Since I only have a couple BP/Psylocke covers, he was my only choice, and his blue arrows saved me from several deaths from badly placed countdown tiles.

/waves at Nemek - was near you in the Top10 in the normal bracket for a bit, not sure where I ended up because I was pushing DA.

Looks like I'll be getting cap as my first full cover 3*. It's about time, he's been around forever!

Round 2 will be a nightmare the way I grinded at the end although played easy before last refresh, so a little false hope is always nice

fedlex20

Well, im taking it easy, stress free. Barely made top 50 on both, doing mainly the widow + maggia and the "hammer's goons only" missions.

Round 2 is starting an hour late, so im guessing its finishing an hour later than usual, right? So instead of going to bed at 1 am and sleeping 5 hours, ill be going to bed at 2 am.



Edit: because mpq rules over my life.

I was boosting like crazy at the end. Next round is going to hurt....

I usually like mhawkeye when I have to use him bc I make him avoid to patch and patch is immortal. However in this tourney he just made my BP take tons of damage. Atleast I go to a max cap out of this horrible experience

At least this time we got halfway until the last progression reward.

Yes, I am being sarcastic.

Yup only a few iso boosts left. If the prize is really gonna be lazythor in round 2, I'm gonna shoot myself in the foot just to calm down a little

Did the alliance rewards not get distributed for the two venom PvEs yet? So far I've gotten 2 of the individual rewards from Venom, Venom deadly, Bad is Good and 0 of the alliance rewards o_O

Unknown

So after finishing first in my bracket it tells me that i finished in the top 250 instead. What a shame, i timed it right and won got the lead with my second last game. Any ideas why it would do this?

Usually takes longer for alliance rewards

I don't expect alliance awards for about an hour to an hour and half after the event ends.

Maybe you finished top 250 in the other mode? Normal vs deadly? That or you're the biggest victim of rubber banding of all times

Congrats to S.H.I.E.L.D on your wins. If we couldn't win and ScAvengers couldn't, and FittedKitchens couldn't, and 5dea........ Um yeah well done;)

raises his voice to sound like Napoleon:
You know, we could've win, but we had 1 player AFK for the whole week. I did some math and if he was present we would easily win. Also, I could've earn 2000 more points but my wife needed to use the toilet.
