    Now, will the season start with Cover Squirrel, or will we get a surprise Champ Reward update and start with Nick Fury PVP (what was it even called?). Also. Vulture placement from The Hunt. Get me closer to that 452 Spidey, thank you.

    What teams are you all taking into the Mystique PvP? I'm not immediately seeing any synergy between her and the boosted 4* characters, or between any of the boosted list themselves...
    It's just a sad boosted list period. Apart from Max, the rest of the boosted 4* are pitiful. I guess you could fuel Mystique's blue with IM40 recharge as well as Punisher's green. Full rainbow at least.

    Well, on the bright side, going SCL7, I have the same clear points as alliance member in SCL8. The 5* mission is worth the same, high points in each SCL for DP VS MPQ it seems. Oops?

    While I wouldn't mind this since my Fury is high enough to get 2 5* covers, who would he give? Black widow maybe?

    Black Widow or Steve Rogers. Honestly, I expect a 5* Fury some day, in a leather trenchcoat, for 4Fury to give covers for. With how heavily promoted MCU is, I’m not expecting to ever see Nick Fury (Howling Commando), but wouldn’t mind that one being added.

    I assume the letterbox view for iPhone X is a bug, right? Any idea when a fix can be pushed out?  It looks so tiny (kitty)...

    I almost don't want to team up IM40 and Punisher because he's a bad battery for his colors and his red drains black, but I suppose if I put the blue AP towards Mystique she can produce black, but even that's a gamble because it could come out purple and overwrite green tiles in the process.

    I decided to use Invisible Woman and then ignore the boost list and pair her with Vulture, just so he could fuel her blue and green. This worked well up to 300 points, but once things start getting challenging I'll probably have to default to the Punisher / IM40 team and sigh my way through.

    It should be a Three day event as Deadpool is 4 Days and they like to stick to 7 day cycles, Thursday to Thursday.

    @Brigby

    Can you confirm the boost that Foes and Avengers will see? Will 5* get the “god” boost? 

    P.S. - My champed Goblin would like that

    P.P.S - It’s entirely possible that I would run a 450 Gambit over any of them anyways.

    That's correct. The Hunt will be a 3-day event. I'll add that detail to the Sneak Peek for additional clarity.

    Is it the new standard +90 level boost or will it be scaled like it was in the past? I believe a 450 GG turned into 462. It was a nice boost but fairly negligible. Nowadays we have the super whale boost to new and essential 5’s.

    Aw, man! Silly Peter for turning Tony’s offer down in Homecoming. Now I have to use him unboosted. Heh, oh well.

    I believe it will only boost them up to 463

    Vulture is the placement reward? Doth my eyes deceive me? The first Latest character to be featured in awhile, and you guys chose a good one.

    And now we can play his Crash when it comes up in, oh, 300 days or so. :tongue:

    That’s a little disappointing since it’s off season. It’s not really a meaningful boost. If the hope is to use events like this to get people to mix up teams....well the devs should then be considering a 200 level bonus on Ock to see if anyone uses him.

    After dealing with level 550 Gambit and then Thor in regular season?? There is no reason that the classics can’t have an event or two in the sun.

    I can guarantee you if Ock got a 200 level boost I'd use mine, NR hit for just north of 70k when he was featured in Story. Add another 90 levels to that......

    @Brigby I hope you are paying the dark avengers millions in ISO because after Simulator, Deadpool vs MPQ and now the hunt 95% of all opponents are daken, ares, rags, jug, moonstone et al. Variety is the spice of life.

    I destroyed PvP with 055 Gambit and KK.. Mystique mostly sat there looking pretty. Once in awhile she used her blue and black though
