    Even if they made it so the featured 5* was only boosted for that one node it would be a very welcome change, especially in scl 9
    plus whenever a 5* is boosted the powerboost is very meager on the lower levels so why not just boost them if not just for listing purposes
    Exactly!

    6000 damage for 8 red for the Boss event in round 8. Do you actively hate your players?
    Hulkbuster basically does the same damage per AP at level 300. You're talking about a boss at level 400, right?

    With that being Round 8, no, they don't hate their players.

    I wonder how many newer players with champed 4s have a level 300 Hulkbuster or even a level 300 member of the X-Men that was boosted for that event.

    Yeah, that is its own problem. If they are shifting Story event rewards to have Vintage 4*s once a week instead of the once every two weeks, that would make a good parity with the revised odds for 4*s in tokens.

    "Honor Among Thieves (10/8/17)"

    Is that all the update we get for an "UPCOMING STORY EVENTS"?

    Need to label it "Current Story Events" or even "Past Story Events" would be more accurate.

    Was Very pleased to see the 5* get boosted over 100 levels.
    That allowed my 1/2/1 Surfer and 0/1/0 Gambit do all four of the 5* essential clears with boosted X-23 in CL8. 

    Surfer blue placed on green to charge them. Gambit red for damage and to earn the easy green AP. X-23 goes berserk repeatedly, and the strikes reduce the cost of her purple for huge damage when I match the trap.
    *If I had a Gambit black cover I would not be able to play X-23 purple, so this team is very temporary, but fun.

    Clears 5-7 will require Carol, but very glad to see the 5*s get boosted plenty.

     Dude, chill. Dino happens exactly once per year. That's 10 days out of 365. Perspective.

    Her arms when swapping tiles are awesome.
    Possibly my favorite animation in the whole game - that and Baby Groot running with the bomb in his hands

    Well to be fair, true perspective is that:
    47 character are (or soon will be) rotating through Crash at this point.
    So that's 235 days leaving only 130 for the next cycle (which will have more characters)
    At this point Dino is the only one guaranteed to get 2 crashes per year, which when you look at it this way that is kinda silly...

    Fair enough, I suppose. I still see it as just 10 days out of 365, but that may be just me.

    It hurt the paraphrase that he was writing it on a Tuesday. Well, the next Versus banner should come up shortly anyway. No rush needed on the Story update. I'm wondering if we'll get a patch notes post more than anything.
