Got one bagman, and a 4* wolvie! But yes, I suppose that as my roster get better (read: have more 3*), the LR won't be worth the time. It's a really strange change: first they nerf the pvp rewards to make the 2*->3* transition more difficult. Then, they nerf LF to make this transition easier, thus making the "3*->more 3*" transition more difficult.

I was tanking hard in shield training while playing smash it and it was the same experience as zero tanking in the last hot shots. I could be wrong, but I don't think tanking has any effect anymore.

Usually save the easiest seed team that comes up, fight the rest of the seed teams (plus, if you feel like, real opponents, but that dramatically increases the odds you get attacked and overwrite the seed team you saved) to get to wherever you want (the higher the better), then fight that easiest seed team you set aside with the loaner plus 2 weak characters (I use Bagman and Yelena).

It's worth losing the 30 ISO bonus to bring up one of the 2/2/23 seed teams
