Just the other week I got top 10 for the other Doctor's Orders (the one giving CMag as a reward) with a lot less points than this. Either my MMR got way up or they really messed up with the brackets...

I'm not sure what's going on with MMR and the brackets, but in addition to whatever that is, I also think people are just getting more and more competitive because the Season 1 Event is getting closer to the end, which is driving all our scores up.

Yeah, one week left for the Season 1 is not helping either. If seasons become something back-to-back, PvP will be insuferable for the average Joe every 1 out of 3 weeks. That is if they didn't really mess with the brackets.

yeah, I was 2nd in that doc orders...that's how I got my cmags finally. I wasn't worried about 1st in it, just mainly getting mags.

That's how I am with this one. I just want my Loki. I apparently wasn't playing as good when they gave him away last time. So I actually have a shot this time. As long as I don't fall asleep and miss playing the last 30 minutes. I've went from #9 to #38 since my last post.

I'm at around 425-450 but I decided to shield myself hoping i get some points for the total shield season. I dont see myself getting cap. On the bright side, I got a OBW cover from a fight, maxing Espionage, i'm well on my way to maxing her covers out.

I'm like 85 days in and have seen only 4 Espionage covers since I started. Have sold off lots of Purple and Blue covers though. I'd like a bit of your luck .

Anyone here from 5dv? How much HP did KingSucram blow in the last hour shieldhopping? That looked like 5 jumps to me.

I hope he's playing for the win and not for a Green X-Force cover. That would just be sad.

Used 4 shields so far total actually. Never on here but glad to have a fans more just enjoy hitting unshielded x-men so alliance finishes 2nd. But wouldn't advise pushing for first!

Argl. You screwed me out of the 1300. I only unshielded because kakko put in a tank team--just needed two hits Wasn't actually going for first, just the blue IW. That's cost me another shield.

Seriously, Green X-Force is all yours. No interest.

Do you have the event rewards backwards? First is the IW. 1300 is XForce. Did you get tricked by Loki before his event even started?

Yeah, I might try to regain a few points, especially now that the pre-3-hour-shielding feeding frenzy has (hopefully) calmed down a bit.

NOPE. STILL A BLOOD BATH. At least I made it back to 1000 though.

yeah. I saw that. Good job clawing back as I saw you get smacked out of top 10 completely for a few.

Sorry you were unshielded for too long and was thinking you were pushing for first. Green xforce doesn't have my interest but blue IW does

Yeah, I was trying to get in a double. You caught me right at the end of the second. Had bad luck with kakko, took embarrassingly long to take out.

I've been notified I mixed up the two rewards. Now I feel pretty dumb. Anyways, well-played on your part.

Probably, it doesn't look like the 2 X-Men are going to challenge you for it. They haven't unshielded in awhile for a hop. I'm certainly not jumping back into the shark tank of the last 25 minutes.

Edit: Looks like I'm a liar, there goes Compromized.

Worked my way into the top 50 with 800 points and immediately got blasted a few times for20-40 points. Retaliation points worth 3. The grind isn't worth it.

Yeah, went up and down over 100 points for a while, got back up to 1000 for the third time and just put up a shield and called it a day.

I'm at 161 days, my OBW is 2/5/4, and I spent 1000 HP to purchase two of those blacks

Come on qt! People already think we're a crazy cult, I don't need this bad pr for the group right now. I'm trying to get someone new! Ugh, I'm gonna need to outsource klingsor's pr group for clean up

Back on topic, my brackets a little more normal this time around. Are there lots of forum filled 1000 won't get you top ten brackets of doom this time around?

Just blame faulty eyepatches. I assume you all wear one when playing.

I just moved up to 1020 points. Shielded for now, but mat try one last go round. If anyone sees me...Please be kind and avoid me for a few...pretty please. I'll by the next round of brews for everyone or something, lol

The bracket finally has all top 10 above 1000, I thought it wasn't going to happen

I have pioneered the new skill of 'Shield Dropping'. You pay 75HP to drop 20 or so pts, consecutively. The idea is to intimidate other players with your willingness to blatantly blow through HP to less-than-no-effect.

Be suitably afraid.
