    So what's the story regarding Exchanges?

    I got my 14th Strange cover (purple if you must know...).   Can I exchange it?

    An Alliance-mate stated that they aren't doing exchanges for Banner/Strange, so I'm SOL....

    Is that only for the "Arena" Token, or Friends from Work tokens?  (I got it from a FFW Token, spent 25CP on 11 of them).

    How do you guys save up so much CP? I tried to save up 250 CP in case Thanos came up on Heroes for Hire, but I only made it to 140 before splurging on pulls (which I got a Thanos out of, woo).
    Once the hoard begins to get decent it becomes easier. For me, vaulting really pushed me to hoard. Had to limit how I spent my CmdPts to limit useless covers. I was over 3300 at one point and I still have over 2K. I did spend like 800 trying to cover Rogue though.

    Only Thor will be exchanged.

    No joy from the 5 tokens I got from the lightning rounds but with the ratio odds shown my hopes weren’t high 

    then moved on to the other store and opened covers until I got thor 

    results were 

    quake 
    a. Venom 
    red hulk
    yondu x 2 which means I can champ him I think 
    mocking bird x 2 
    cyclops 
    sandman 
    ghost rider 
    r and g 
    invisible woman
    gamora 
    s gwen 
    coulson plus bonus miles Morales 
    vulture
    gwenpool
    luke cage 
    mordo

    5*s were 
    banner x 2
    dr strange x 3
    thor x 1

    Makes a total of 25 opened so 6 from 25 wasn’t too bad

    Can’t use all the dr strange tokens as have 5 yellow for him 

    as it’s from a special event vault does anyone know if I can get a swap, I’d guess probably not as he’s not a new character

    7 pulls so far, 2 5trange covers and 5 4* that were all usable. Not as cool as getting Thor (I just saw the movie, and am totally pumped for him right now), but I didn't have 5trange, so that's one more off the list.

    1) Thor - red :o
    2) Thor - red :o
    Though to be honest, the second one was Thoress, which made me chuckle.
    Decided not to push my luck any further and stopped there.

    Congrats @Yoik, I’m still undecided whether I want Thor with strange and banner or wait for the next 2x 5*s. I don’t have iso anyway (just championed Peter Parker) so May have to wait. Might pull enough to get a single Thor cover...

    Thanks Pongie. Pulling for one cover is what a lot of people are doing I know for the 5 star node. Its a good idea if you are lucky ;)

    Thor is boosted now instead of Gambit. Ive played with him a bit but still feeling him out. Unsure who to pair him with really

    Get your Daredevil championed and enter a match with both of them at less than 50% health. Thor's boost might make it difficult to utilize Daredevil's true healing, but they should work quite well together.
    Ive got DD covered but not enough iso to go around. Funny how it works out. This time 2 weeks ago I had almost 4mm now ive got 50k lol

    I bought he Thor odinson vault and the friend from work token wasn’t Thor. At least I did pull a 5* (strange, now he is 1/1/0). Then I realise the 5* essential rotation is 2 classics and 3 latest. Thor shouldn’t be eligible until he rotates into latest. Therefore I’m waiting to get his lone cover there (better chance to finish daredevil since he only needs one more, and allows me to save up iso).

    It took me 41 pulls to get my GladiaThor cover, a red one. I also pulled precisely one Banner cover (black) but the real 5* winner was 5trange. He netted four covers (a blue, two purple and a yellow) and ended up 2/3/4. Six covers out of 41 comes out to 14.63 percent, so it was more or less on track.

    I also pulled a 13th cover for Lockjaw, which let me champ him and save three useless blue covers that were dying on the vine. I also got Rogue up to 13 covers, with three extra covers now on my vine. Now the race is on to get enough ISO to champ her before those covers expire. My 2* farm is going to be seriously hurting for awhile. 

    For the first time, I've got all the Latest characters fully covered. Just need to get ISO to champ Rogue and Yondu.

    For those who are curious, here's the results of my mini-hoard:
    Strange purple
    G4ocket yellow
    Kingpin purple
    Medusa purple
    Strange blue
    Kate Bishop purple
    Mockingbird red
    G4ocket blue
    Banner black
    St4r-Lord purple
    St4r-Lord purple
    Clagger black
    Fury blue
    Rogue red
    Lockjaw blue
    G4mora red
    Venom black
    Bl4de red
    Drax purple
    Venom green
    Ant-Man blue
    Rogue green
    Kate Bishop purple (BH)
    Rogue yellow (14th cover)
    Vulture blue
    Spider-Gwen purple
    Mr. F black
    Iron Fist blue
    Kate Bishop black (BH, useless)
    Iron Fist blue
    Clagger black
    Strange yellow
    Rogue red
    Rogue red
    Chulk blue
    St4r-Lord purple
    Nova yellow (useless)

    Pulled a couple more, got a Banner. That gets me some covers for the other two in there, so I at least have them rostered, so I think I'm going to wait until Thor enters Latest to try for him again.
