About to face a guy named bong. Here is his roster
Lvl 84 X-force
Lvl 50 1* IM
Lvl 40 1* Hawkeye
Lvl 40 1* Widow
Lvl 34 Invisible woman

No one else is at level 30. He's skipping the 2 AND 3 star phase.

    I saw someone the other day with all the 3 and 4 stars decently covered but no one or two stars at all.

    I think this does a good job of explaining itself.

    Maybe they were strapped for roster space and sold off their 1* and 2*, but having no 2* is a little curious.

    I saw one just like this. 4 or 5 maxed 3* and no 1* or 2* over level 15 or so. At first I thought the guy had to be a cheater, but the it occurred to me that they probably sold off their lower star guys for roster space, then tried to rebuild them when they realized they would still need them. Sends shivers down my spine.

    Just saw a person that has 9 141s and Spidey is not one of them even though he has 13 covers. In fact Spidey is level 15.

    I've seen a couple of rosters that had Daredevil as their highest leveled character.

    That could easily be explained by the fact that people of the game are also fans of characters, though.

    Maybe they're scared of investing prior to that rebalancing he's in line for. Y'know, any day now. *whistles*

    Is he maxed covered? Also, spidey doesnt let you win faster, so other than in special circumstances he isnt necessary...especially if you have 9 lvl 141s. That's 3 full teams. On top of that, spidey is one of the least necessary characters to lvl in the game. Blue isn't affected by level, purple only slightly increase, and yellow becomes overkill pretty quickly. If he is only there to heal in the prologue, even less necessary to lvl high. Mine is @ lvl 70. I barely use him, and if I do, its either for farming iso or healing in prologue. Lvl 70 is more than enough for that.

    As for xforce, if I downloaded the game, got an xforce or two drawn from packs to start, and then was the type to randomly drop money on the game for 3 covers randomly...that could have happened to me (see: anyone). I mean, naturally you think the 4**** is going to be good, or at worst middle to uppermiddle...not the heap of well worn unfitted tiny kitty that is xforce. Plus he has a nice cover art selected...many ppl have dropped time and money Into xforce to be baffled at how horrible he is. Heck, they don't even have the courtesy to show you his green's strike tile damage (probably requires values to be above 10 to register...*palm* lol).

    Also, back at the spidey, sometimes ppl boycott broken characters. When rags was broken (clearly was op) I refused to use him. Of course, I was using mag..who was also damn strong and just didn't look as insane due to The Ragnificient Ragnarok. Ppl probably thoughty roster looked funny having mine near full covered and lvl 15 at the time.

    Finally, yea..sometimes ppl just spend on who they like. Maybe they think spidey is a little kittty.

    there's 9 *** that I have leveled higher than Spidy even though I have all his covers...and those that are lower are mostly only lower bacause I don't yet have enough covers for them.

    I once saw a guy with two maxed bagmen. Why would one do that?

    I posted this in the Heroic Venom discussion thread earlier this month.

    I know everyone always complains about how low-level people have an advantage in these events, but this kills me ...

    Here's the complete roster of the guy in 3rd place in my regular difficulty bracket:

    Iron Man (m35) - 5/3/5 - level 44
    Black Panther - 0/0/1 - level 15
    Human Torch - 0/0/1 - level 15
    Iron Man (m40) - 0/1/0 - level 15
    Hulk - 1/0/0 - level 15
    Wolvie (Astonishing) - 0/2/0 - level 13

    How is this even possible?

    I think the top guy in my bracket had a roster similar to that. I was so mad that I couldnt instantly take his points away.

    We've all struggled with the age-old question of whether to fully cover Switcheroo or Snarky Remark--seems like this guy didn't want to settle.

    Snark hands down. At 5 covers it costs 18 purple...18 #&@&$ ap? Not happening. I am keeping mine at 4/3/5. It's not like ill ever lvl him so the lost lvls don't mean much.

    The guy who was leading my Alaska bracket the other day had 18 covers. The highest was a level 38 Hulk with three red covers. His first six characters were 38 Hulk, 37 Storm, 36 IM35, 33 Modern BW, 30 MN Thor, and 30 IW. He had nearly 6000 points with several hours left to go.

    A bit off topic, but I'm surprised this many people go around looking at other players' rosters. Thought only I did that.

    I do it in PvP to see if I am facing a tank team.
