    Went in with +2all/+2 r/y and b/p for my lv 188 5/2/5 cyc, was focused on red forgot his black fuels red. He fired off black, then 2 turns later knocked me out with repulsor punch. 2nd try went after red while denying black, when I was able to fire off combined forces,  took him down with 7900 health still left. I was over 8000 health.

    LT gave me black blade bringing him to 4/4/2

    2/1/0 Cyclops, tried twice and it wasn't even close, gonna chalk this one up as a no-go!

    3/2/4 188 unboosted was a trainwreck 6 times, got him to about 50% at best. Added all damage and r/y damage boosts and barely squeaked by with a lucky cascade right after he got enough black to feed a massive RP. Definitely one tough cookie.

    Got my missing black BP cover bringing him to 1/3/1 B)

    5/3/5 level 271 Cyclops made very short work of IMHB, but any event where I can legitimately use +50% Team-up damage boost is a winner in my book :smiley:

    Pulled Spider-Woman purple bringing her to 13 covers. I'm not going to worry about champing her until I get another cover (and I might not then).

    280 Cyke busted that Hulkbuster.

    Black Mordo, very very lucky pull.

    Level 214 5/4/3 Cyclops
    Attempts:
    1) I was butchered. HB got a cascade on the third turn that resulted in him having 15 red AP. Cyclops went down like a sack of manure. 
    2) Close - the red was dense on the board (as with the first try), but I managed more match-4s than he did. I had him down to 2400 or so when he nabbed a red match 3 and finished me off. 
    3) Got him! I lucked into yellow early, and managed to fire one enhanced blast, and then used blue to collect red to hit him with a regular power red. Token saved for now.

    272.  Won first try 5k health left.   

    Denied black and built my colors.  He got a black/red combo off late but wasn't fatal.  Made sure to wait for 10 TU to fire red and smooth sailing.

    LVL 280 Cyclops...just barely squeaked by on my first try due to an extremely black heavy board. Token is banked until I get enough ISO to champ Medusa.

    521 lvl140.
    Took a lot of effort and ap boosts. 2y/r 2b/p and 2all.
    From there, obviously I used his yellow when there were loads of tu matches available.
    I used his blue to get as much red as possible AND cause some nice cascades
    And his red for the damage AND cascades.
    Had to do everything right because IMs red would just oneshot me

    My 5/2/0 Cyclops handled him with relative ease. Got my second black Iron Fist to make him 0/0/2. Whee.

    I miss the lol button. Can we get an "unladylike snort" button instead?

    After last week's war of attrition with Elektra, my 3-cover Cyclops is hesitant to try this one.

    L115 3/1/1, always close but no cigar against HulkBuster, he either one-shot punch me (Cyclops health: 6485) or get black ap to fuel the red, Well keep trying til the end his Crash, and also, trying my luck on the Taco Vault: Sweet pulls for that Yellow Cyclops Cover, just to add a bit of Iso to increase his health alittle more.

    5/2/0 level 111. First try. No boosts. I was mildly surprised.

    3/4/0, lvl 130
    I use AP boost 20% for Red and Yellow, Damage boost for Red and Yellow 50%,  and 50% Damage Boost for Team-up tile
    Manage to get Hulkbuster down to 1/3 of his health before being KO by him.
