NotBAMF said: So after spending the hoard to try to get some Vulture or Nightcrawler covers (I didn’t), i now have a 1/5/5 Sandman with two covers on the vine. Should I spend my last 240 CP to get him to 13 covers and champ him? He is still at lv70, so it’s a HUGE iso and CP investment for frickin’ Sandman, but I hate wasted covers.So champ him? Or let the covers rot?

Well, the math is one thing, but here's how I looked at it initially:
240 CP is either two Sandman covers for a guaranteed champion or 12 classic pulls that will most likely get me bupkiss. Maybe I just have the worst luck in the universe at CL pulls, but I never get anything relevant from them. It's almost always "Oh, great. Another cover for my 1/0/1 character".
Unvaulting has given me trust issues over legendary tokens.

Still not Worth 240 CP IMO. Covers are a lot easier to come by than 240CP.
It should be Sandman's turn in Crash of the Titans soon (unless he gets skipped like Vulture), so it might be a good idea to save up on HP and try to cash in a cover that way though.

Yeah, but the comparison shouldn't necessarily be "spend 240 CP to save 2 covers", it's more realistic to view it as "spend 240cp to save 2 covers now and 3-4 covers later"
I'll put it Another way then: Those 240 CP represents 9-12 Legendary tokens (depending on whether you go the Latest or Classic route). Statistically, that is 1½-2 fivestar covers in those pulls. For a character that you do not depend on in Daily play I would probably only consider spending that amount of CP to save 10 covers or more.
YMMV as Always though.
I never said it's worth it (especially for Sandman), just that you need to look at the entire picture. If you're selling those two covers, you should to be ready to sell the next few covers as well.
Personally (if I had the ISO to champ in the first place), I would've set Sandyman as my bonus 4* for the two weeks until the covers expire and keep the 240 CP as a backup in case I still needed to buy.

Just the xp alone from that is better than finishing off sandman. If you have the roster slot, then start on a dupe. This way the covers aren't wasted.
