Do we know an exact date yet, can't remember how it goes is it 2 weeks from introduction of a new 5* or 2 weeks after their store closes?

    After the store closes, so on or around 10/23

    Per past releases, it should be 2 weeks from store closing, which would have Gambit replacing Doc Oc on October 23rd at some point during the day.

    October 23rd. After PP & DD both have a second turn as PVE essential just a week before people actually pull to champ them.

    And as soon as he is gone he will get a rebalance and become the best 5*

    That would be nice, mine at 456 as of today. My highest character.

    after oc leaves, how much time will i have to hoard before the next 5* comes? i think with gambit, the 3 in latest will be decent. but i'd like have a fork tonne of pulls before i blow my wad.

    4-6 weeks.  Normally 5's are about 6 weeks apart.  If there is a 5 to coincide with thor ragnarok, 4 weeks.

    Probably one of the few, but will be sad when doc ock leaves. As a non hoarder, He is the first 5 star that I have ever managed to build up so high (9 covers) in latest.

    Do you have him? Best AoE in the game! Sure it's a 10 turn CD, but Carol can end it immediately. 5 covers at 456 over 30k, again AoE. Can't wait for him to be required and boosted. Based on Parker pre and post stats, I'm guessing close to 80k.

    Also his black and blue powers have great utility. Pair him with Thanos, drop a couple tentacles. When you down someone and he's stunned, you get as many free moves on your next turn as tentacles. Don't judge him too quickly!!

    Until Thor: Ragnarok which comes out on the 3rd of November, roughly 6 weeks.

    Yeah im sure he's great. But theres other things id rather have. I have 7 covers for him so pve isnt an issue. Skipping him and daredevil. Hoarding for gambit and the next 2

    Even without any special knowledge i am 100% confident there will be a 5* release to coincide with thor ragnarok. . .

    Ummmm... November 3rd was three weeks from the 13th. I would bet money we'll see a 5* MCU Thor though around that time, so unfortunately the window between Gambit and Thor will likely be only four weeks total.

    Oh snap, you're right (bad at math sometimes), well, probably 4 weeks then.

    Special store running until like Nov 7-8 + 2 weeks...     November 22nd or so.

    And right before he is released we will have another "1:4 bug" to try to get every one to spend their hoarded CP!

    Unless they retune Banner I don't think anyone will go anywhere  near that store at any odds

    You can bet a Thor store will have Thor, Banner, Strange
