Just for fun - Hawkeye enters the Latest Legends pool either a week from Monday or Tuesday - depending on whether BP entering the pool on Tuesday was due to President's day or was normal. So how many pulls (both Legendary Tokens and CP, if you're saving either,) have you saved for this blessed event?

Feel free to change your answer as time goes by. Feel free to elaborate if you want, it will keep the thread alive. icon_e_smile.gif

    Voted Asgard Treasure, but I'm only counting LT's @ 201. I'm still using CP to open Classics. I could add a considerable amount of Latest pulls from that CP if I wanted to - well into Mother Lode territory.

    I'm up to 280 pulls today. 2.3m iso as well. No clubs. It's been a long road. BP, Thanos, Hawkeye...They will be mine.

    Voted none. I opened my last hoard when BP entered the pool and am currently still opening until Dr Strange either hits 13 or leaves the pool. Then I'll start hoarding latests again until it's Hawkeye plus two newer 5*s. That way I'm opening again when it's three 5*s I have 0-1 covers for.

    I have a 3/3/5 5trange I'm trying to finish while the cover swapping is still alive, so just burning them as I get them

    It's not so much "I'm excited for Hawkeye" as it's "Need to use them all before Thanos rotates out".

    Currently have 64 Legendary tokens and 1846 CP for 137 pulls.

    ISO is the biggest problem because I only have about 360k. That won't even champ 2 of the many 4*s that I'll max out pulling this hoard, never mind leveling any of the 5*s.

    I hear you. I don't care about Hawkeye one way or the other - he seems neat but I don't have strong feelings. What I want is Thanos - since I max-covered Strange I'm waiting until he leaves the pool to maximize my chances to do useful things with covers. It's not as if I have enough Iso to level Strange anyway - he'll keep until I draw him out of the Classics.

    I'm up to 39 pulls, myself, but I may end up burning some of the CP on Classics as I have a 12 cover Wasp with a blue cover expiring in 8 days. If I don't draw her, I'll probably use some there.

    I’m pulling as many as I can get Strange before he leaves (STILL no yellow!) I’m kinda meh on 5* Hawkeye for now. On the plus side, my Thanos is now 5/4/2 from this, so he should be in good shape by the time he goes Classic

    Yeah, I said zero. I'm hoarding CP but only because vaulting sent my chances of using any given 4* cover from ~80% to about 25%.

    Still opening my Crash tokens for the occasional shot at Thanos, though.

    I actually am hoarding some LTs but for a completely different reason: waiting to have the ISO to champ Wasp and get my odds on the Latest 12 back into a more favorable position of usefulness.

    None. After the bonus covers + the announcement that SCL scaling is coming I've stopped hoarding and am trying to pull as many from LL trying to get a decent start on Dr. Strange. After he moves to classics I'll likely hoard again, at least LTs. Hawkeye isn't someone I'm interested in pursing as one of my first 3 5*. Thanos and Black Panther maybe, but not really interested in him.

    Currently up to 180 latest pulls saved up (between tokens and CP) and will pull sometime after Hawkeye gets added but before Peggy leaves. Saving up the ISO to champ any potential 5*s I fully cover is the most painful part.

    It would have been more, but when a little bird leaked the help-page about bonus heroes before it went live, I recognized that I was about to lose a bunch in champion rewards on my older 4*s, so I got to pulling. Made it through 100 pulls before the change went live.

    213 right now with barely any ISO. 2* is flipping. Had more but thought Strange had left and pulled 4 for 38 until I realized when Strange was awarded.

    Currently 144 pulls. Will not Cash them yet though, I will wait to see what the next fivestar looks like before I make up my mind. Would like at least 250 pulls before I pull the trigger, unsure if I can get it before Thanos leaves the pool though.

    Zero, still pulling.

    But the simple fact that so many here have a hoard either used before Hawkeye, for him, or after him...it's the way the game works. And it is TERRIBLE that hoarding is the only way to make it into specific characters/5* land.

    Classics need to be DRAMATICALLY increased for 5* draws, probably back to 2.5% each. Let players have a large variety of characters over time, rather than only a few 5*'s because they didn't pull anything for six months. Hoard-only progression is just slightly better than RNG-only progression: both are a bad way to run a game.

    Here's hoping that 5*'s are in the next SCL (progressions, not placement!) - there needs to be another way to get them soon. But that's been the case for over a year.

    Yeah, not sure what do choose. I was hoarding, but specifically for before Hawkeye entered, not after. And I'm going back to hoarding again until just before Thanos rolls out.

    Basically, I've been hoarding, but Hawkeye isn't the end game.

    I'm hoarding and I'd love hawkeye, but I'm not pulling until the numbers are right. only at 83 today. hoping to hit 300 by the time he's leaving, assuming swaps are still around.

    I've got a modest stack of LT's waiting, but they have nothing to do with Hawkeye. Not sure how that figures into your poll.

    None. I was saving all tokens till I could make 3 star Hawkeye a favorite and then I was going to pull them all, but I ended up pulling my 14th Medusa cover so I desperately needed ISO to champ it before it expired. I opened 60 standard, about 40 elite, and about 25 heroic tokens. Worked out well, I have a ton of ISO, I went up a level and got more, and I got some 2's very close to being max champed which I can sell soon, and that should put me over the top. While I was opening, I ended up getting a 15th Medusa cover as well.

    As far as Legendary and CP, I have been spending that as soon as I get it, because my Dr. Strange is at 10 covers, and I am trying so hard to get him maxed out before he leaves the latest legendary packs. Once he leaves, I am going to start hoarding again.
