    Black Vortex is regular progression, right?
    Also: that's the event that has the guardians of the galaxy boosted?
    Yes for both questions.
    Black vortex also have some xmen boosted(bobby storm x-23 are some I remember)
    @Brigby

    The details for the Black Vortex pvp showed up in game a short while ago.  I'm confused as to why the Awesome Mix Volume 2 characters and C4rol were overlooked.  I was looking forward to playing this event with St4rlord (or C4rol), G4mora and 4-star Grocket. Was it an unintentional oversight by not updating the powered up list since the last time this event ran?  Thanks in advance for your time in looking into this matter!

     Were they last time? I can't remember. That would be nice, as I wasn't feeling super confident with that boosted list.

    New character release, I wonder how many people will drop from 7 and 8 to snipe the placement rewards of lower CL. Maybe 10 like the last time, and the time before that and the time before that.

    Was also expecting/hoping for a Black Vortex boost update. Only off-season event that seems to get updates is nefarius foes, Sandman and 5* Ock were there last off-season and i remember Mordo was leaked by showing up in the list first.

    No offense to anyone, and I agree with wanting an updated list for next run, but they ran a redesigned event (Divine Champs) right before Black Vortex as a test.  It seems reasonable that they ran BV with no changes.

    But, please, Brigby, ask Demi to rework the list for next time.

    He can't do anything until Marvel news puts up the Piecing Together article.

    Simulator event preview shows Mockingbird covers, even though the announcement isn't up yet. So it goes...

    The simulator is on screen ready to join 

    it shows who the new character is going to be so I'd assume we will have an article in the next couple of hours

    Hmm, interesting power set. I see the passive as being hard to set-up, so it's probably advised to just be surprised when it goes off. But like Loki, enemy teams will have to be wary/regretful of it happening.

    Oh hey! That change to Fasball Special removing the option to select tiles. I guess it might actually have something to do with Opportunist and wanting the two powers to work the same. Because it would be weird for Opportunist to proc a free power and suddenly stop the enemy turn in the middle of matches.

    Yeah the passive move going off will be a bonus.worse case scenario is you'll at least gain 2 ap whenever they make a match 4.which is still good considering it costs us nothing.red looks like it could be a pretty decent power move.5/3/5 or 5/5/3 look like the way to go without knowing champ levels yet.

    Amusing. News.marvel.com updates, and it's about the cast of New Warriors.

    @InfectiousYawn I passed this along to the developers, but it's possible it was merely an oversight. If anything, next time will have the Awesome Mix Volume 2 characters buffed.

    PS. I coincidentally did yawn after reading your name. :p

    There´s one thing I don´t understand. Mockingbird´s release event ends July 31 but her featured event starts only three days later on August 3. Is that a mistake or will we have another PVE between Mockingbird´s release and featured event? @Brigby
