    I understand all of that I'm just really curious of who she'll end up fighting

    I can't figure out how to link pics I guess from mobile

    I think she might be up against blackbolt or kamala
    Or possibly Quake.
    Is Quake a CotT opponent for anyone already?

    MoStorm as Medusa's opponent would actually be quite fun. Let Storm get 9 Black and get 10 Purple for yourself (while denying Green and Yellow) 
    it would be kinda annoying if you don't have three purple covers for Medusa but I like it

    This is a terrible boost list for me, synergy wise. Too many green/blue users. I have Pun, Invisible Woman and Venom. Not sure what to run with for Beast pvp.

    Yikes. I sincerely hope that the Boss event has its own boosted list (they usually do, don't they?). Otherwise my 0/5/4 Iceman is going to need a serious Iso injection. I think the next best covered are IW and Eddie Venom with 5 each.

    I got Invisible Woman, Hulkbuster and Punisher to a semi-decent level for boosting but yeah it's not the best lineup

    28 4* Champs and only 1 boosted this upcoming week - Punmax!

    Iceman should be champed in a couple of days which helps.  Unfortunate consequence of the vaulting, focus on champ ISO is new 12 so no spare ISO for older 4*.  Bad luck in how things line up with the older champs I do have.

    Marvel Puzzle Quest Sneak Peek: Upcoming In July, 2017
    (*Important note: Anything listed below is subject to change before release. We will try to update any changes in a timely manner, but please keep in mind the info below is not guaranteed.)


    UPCOMING WEEKLY BUFFS
    (7/6/17 - 7/13/17) *New Update*
    • 4-Star: Iceman, Invisible Woman, Iron Man (Hulkbuster), The Punisher (MAX), Venom (Eddie Brock)
    • 3-Star: Colossus, Iron Fist (Immortal Weapon), Psylocke, Quicksilver, Ragnarok
    • 2-Star: Magneto (Marvel NOW!), Thor (Marvel NOW!)
    • 1-Star: Black Widow (Modern), Storm (Modern)

    I can't remember how buffs work. I see IW is buffed for the week of the Spider Man event, but that XFW is buffed for the event. Are the levels the same for a weekly buff and an event buff? I have enough ISO for one, but not enough for both.

    Featured character buffs are stronger than weekly buffs. Pretty sure the non-featured buffed characters for Spider Man vs S6 are the same level as weekly buff.

    I dont think weekly buffs will affect the boss event ie if a character is in weekly boost list but not event boost list they will have no buff at all

    Correct. Notice the boss event thread has it's own "Weekly" list. The weekly Boss list completely overwrites the weekly "normal" list for that event, always has. Punisher, Iceman, Invisible Woman, and Eddie will be boosted in PVP (and the rest of the week after Boss event ends), but Cloak & Dagger, XFW, Thor, and Cho will be boosted for Sinister Six.

    I've complained about this in the past, but the devs haven't changed it yet. Brigby did get a disclaimer added below the boost list that says
    (The event gives the Weekly Powered-Up amount to the highlighted characters. The characters that are part of the Weekly Powered-up list may be different for other events)
    which is an improvement, but it's still confusing. They need to just spell out that Boss events don't use the weekly list, and then find a new name for the "Boss weekly" (even if the boost is the same, change the text, so the distinction for who is/isn't getting boosted is clearer).

    I'm always glad of the change of pace that is DP v. MPQ, but running it right after a boss event is no fun for players in an Iso crunch.

    4* Thor, though. Nice.

    Deadpool vs MPQ again after a boss event after all the complaints from last time.

    I really wish that Carol progression cover were green. My Carol is at 5/5/0

    I would be fine with green or black, just not yellow. Gonna be 3/5/3 after Sinister Six :(

    But Deadpool gives you that huge iso bomb of 2500 at the end, though!  So thoughtful...

    In all seriousness, a vaulted 4 is nice, though.
