    Well, that was annoying.
    Got from 800 to 950 without problems, from 950 it was constantly win 25 - lose 37.
    Switched in Patch/CMags which helped some, because I got attacked less than with OBW/Hood.
    (Which I don't understand, because I would rather skip OBW/Hood, but whatever).
    Then Patch/CMags died (something something cascades) so I had to switch back to OBW/Hood.
    Made it to 1000 twice, but not really, because down another 35 both times so stuck at 970.
    One more fight, up to 998, and another one, 1035, which held this time.
    I derive some personal satisfaction from beating up Slobofix for my final 37 points.

    I'm shielded now, so if you have me in your queue, fire away. I'm done unless I drop out of top 5, then I might do something an hour before the end or so.
    Heads up: I got you in a node, reckless, so I hope you're not planning on playing during the last hour?
    If you do, I'll use another node.

    Going to try and make a decent push here, I still think 1100 is just out of my reach, but if I can reach 800 I can grab the next 2 season progressio rewards, 1 of which being the Hulk cover.

    I saw you and saw that OBW/Hood and made the mistake of thinking I could overcome the theft by force. I had to rage quit - after 5 turns I had no gems and half my health and you were full health.

    Yes, you really need to know what you're getting into with that team icon_e_wink.gif
  • sooo many maxed punishers, struggle to get anything past 600 points because of it with my 2 star roster

    Sorry dude, I think I was one of the guys who hit you at 970. I try to make a habit of only hitting people once though (unless they retal from above me), so made sure to skip the next time you popped up in my queue. Karma got me anyway - made my way to 1050 a couple of times, and got knocked back down to 920 as well. Settled for 999, it seemed like a nice number.

    And regarding hood/OBW - normally I'd find it intimidating, but I guess hood/cmags made short work of it. Though I'm pretty sure that my first two matches netted me 10 pink tiles, making hood very very dead soon thereafter.

    Also Cap is at 139, will be maxed before I start this tourney, will be fun running them both with Hood/OBW.

    As for the glitch, we already had Knock3r, Kakko, and Kyip. So maybe it's klingsor time to be a pinata? Unless the capital "K" matters as well.

    Hell no, we dont need klingsor getting a swollen heard from the 1900+ score that he'd end up getting like Kyip did from the cascades of doom :p

    I had to get 1250+ the old fashioned way. I would love being a pinata for a day.
  • Thanks for the pts Bee! Presumably some bad cascades there icon_e_sad.gif

    I wasn't planning to push to 1300 but with your +31 maybe I will - have slobofix queued which will nearly get me there

    Am I crazy or did the army of one event just extend itself by 12 hours?? I thought it should have just finished, then an update pushed through and it was 12 hours away all of a sudden? Or am I just losing it?

    I wouldn't discount the possibility of Computer Elves messing with you, but on my end the event has always ended 12 hours from now

    Well it would explain the low scores from everyone in my alliance and the low leader score. But I could have sworn it said it ended in 3 hours when I got up this morning. I'll blame computer elves. Guess that 3 hours shield was a bit of a waste. Oh well. icon_rolleyes.gif

    Don't worry abou it - I'm OK with getting hit, as long as it's not five times in a row.
    But I appreciate the apology icon_e_smile.gif

    And yeah, the two matches I lost myself were against Magnetos who magically were at 10 purple all of a sudden and it was goodbye to two chars from MagLoc and the resulting cascades. Nasty stuff. Makes me wonder if CMags really is as bad on defense as people think he is.

    Mags is bad on defense? He's no LT or Hood, but he's got a spammable ability that does constant, decent damage while usually generating a good amount of AP, and another ability that just murders someone, which makes him much better than most 3*s on defense

    Yes, you really need to know what you're getting into with that team icon_e_wink.gif

    I hit two teams with this composition. Yes, it is frustrating. I run OBW so I'm safe in the knowledge that I'll steal everything back. Once I have enough for Judgement the game is over. OBW and Hood fall like Dominoes.

    I have a much tougher time with Hulk. If I run Judgement then I need to eliminate my strike tiles before engaging hulk otherwise his Anger goes off 2-3 times per hit (Espionage + attack tiles) and I get brutalised. Happened twice in my climb to 900.

    Yeah, I'm having an exceptionally hard time this event with my low lvl punisher and 2* team. Can hardly stay over 500 points without getting hit a bunch.

    At least Loki kinda sucks so I won't bother too much if I miss covers for him.

    I don't quite have the roster to take on the top guys, but I'd really love to hit 1100 for my 5th green punisher. At 900 now, hoping to get up there but not sure I have what it takes to tangle with the zombie horde.

    If you see my 165 (boosted obv) Pun, 85 OBW, and 128 LT, please don't hit me for the next hour or two. It's my birthday and it would be a nice present icon_e_smile.gif.

    Let us know how you do, and then let us know when you shield and it's safe to hit you!
