    Ah, Kenzi. Pure comedy gold, and the best thing in an otherwise mediocre show.

    On topic, I am delighted to see Bucky coming up in progression.

    I must say that the Webbed Wonder event is a real "Walk in the park" so far with R&G boosted paired with C4rol ;)

    I ran the 4 clears in under 40 minutes without a single health pack using R&G, Medusa and Starlord (to buff R&G strike tiles).  Was like a hot knife through butter.

    Using the same team and it's unbelievable!!! Those strike tiles R4G drops at the start make for 5k match damage, plus Medusa's tile!!!


    It's amazeballs. Who needs 5*s?!? Totally refreshing to ignore my 5*s for most of the sub.
    Lol never heard the expression "amazeballs" before. I like it! :)
    I take it you've never watched Lost Girl
    Or Archer.

    I forget the pattern, which color will be the progression cover for Winter soldier?  Please anything but red says my 1/2/5

    Mordo and Strange boosted, and Mordo Crash makes me feel like the hidden PVE will be Strange Sights. Hope Marvel puts up the Piecing Together for He Who Shall Be Trolled tomorrow so the PVE can be Sneak Peeked.

    Nice to see that I´ve all buffed 4* characters championed. Especially Cage and Mr. F should be fun to play in PVP!

    In terms of the upcoming PVE my guess is Hearts of Darkness since it´s a typical new release event and hasn´t been running for some time.

    Hopefully honour among thieves still have 5 star starlord essential

    Hopefully why? Given that it doesn't fit typical PVE structure and cause an unnecessarily large amount of complaints when the event came out, I can't see a reason they'd keep it.

    Presumably he means "hopefully the event has a large chunk of iso I can earn", rather than "hopefully there is a node that most people won't be able to play".

    I honestly liked the all the one time nodes.  Even though I didn't have 5*Starlord last time I thought it was a cool reward for the few that had it.  I got the extra ISO for the Gamora and R&G nodes and this time will have all three.  It's nice to reward people who collect.

    y'all are assuming this Thick as Thieves event isn't entirely different, which it obviously will be because if you look at the rewards for it it has the regular PVE event structure. I'd guess it might have some sort of gimmick like Strange Days did but even then I think this'll be a somewhat standard PVE and become regular eventually like Webbed Wonder and Strange Days did

    If you're talking about the release event for Yondu, its called Honor Among Thieves. And as far as I can tell it is a new event, though the piecing together mpq article calls it a "revamped Guardians event". So who really knows what it's gonna be like.

    Honor Among Thieves will be a normal event, with the exception that I Have A Plan, Backup Plan, and Plan C are going to be returning as its sub-chapters.
    Except of course @Brigby!!! Thanks for the insight!!!

    Is it too much to hope for that the Backup Plan and Plan C subs will still give away 4* R&G & Gamora?  o:)

    @Brigby any info on the types of enemies we'll face in the new event? I'm kind of curious what to expect before I go into it tomorrow.

    There were Mindless Ones and Symbiotes. Nova was in one of the missions as well, along with dialogue with the Guardians, so expect to face him too. Whatever else might be added is anyone's guess. Not a great deal of characters have any business in space, though perhaps Captain Marvel could make an appearance. It'll need a bit of padding onto the original 3 events to make up a full story event.
