    Not in general, but I'd like more GED covers before he leaves Latest. He's only 1//1/2.

    The Good: Pulled a 4* cover from a Strange Days token.
    The Bad: It was Mr. Fantastic.
    Bit of Both: A champ reward is a champ reward.

    Bad - Taking three tries to get the win that I needed in the Mystique event to get the Heroic Token.  The boards and matches were not friendly.

    Good - The Heroic token ended up being a 4-star.

    Meh - It was Jubilee

    Meh - A heroic token for the Alliance, thanks to our placement in the latest PvE round.

    Good - My son got a 4-star *and* a 4-star bonus hero out of the token.

    Bad - The token was a Yellow Fury token for his 5/2/4.  The Bonus Hero was a red Elektra for his 5/3/4.  Both covers went into the saved bucket.  (She's the bonus hero so she can get champed.  This was her 4th red saved cover, and Fury's second.)

    I've hoarded LLs and CP since I started playing and only opened tokens to stores like Iceman's.

    The good: my ninth ever pull, eligible to net a five star, got me my first!
    The bad: It was Archangel.
    RNG's final kick in the happysack: The other token was Elektra.

    Anyone need some lottery numbers ;)

    Good - After countless times of seeing the AI plop Prof X's invisibility tile down in a corner, I finally get to randomly place mine in the lower right corner.

    Bad - Directly below and to the right of the AI's Scarlet Witch's countdown tile.

    Meh - The Behemoth Burrito team is a low enough level that I won even with everyone being able to see Prof X.

    The Good: I got six out of the seven "big" rewards in the taco vault with my 216 tokens, and most of the HP. Hooray!
    The Bad: I didn't get the Ronin cover, which is specifically why I opened those tokens.
    The Meh: I guess I'll 12 more tries before the vault closes, if I earn all available tacos each day.

    Good: With the token from Punisher's store I got a Carnage with a bonus of my 13th cover of Bishop!!!

    Bad: That 13th cover was my 6th blue cover. *sigh*

    Bit of both: At least once I champ him I'll automatically get a legendary so that's cool. Also, the Carnage cover got me a cover for 5* Doc Ock. Ehh.

    Decided to pull from the Higher Learning store until hitting a 5*. The hope was to get a PX before the last sub of Unstable Iso8 ended.

    Fortunately that only took 3 pulls, and included a 4* bonus hero.
    Unfortunately it was a Banner, appropriately enough "The Other Guy" ability.
    At least that balanced him out at 3/3/3. Maybe someday I'll accidentally get him champed.

    Good - Our Alliance reached Max Progression in the Apocalypse PvE, and I got a Prof X from the token.

    Taunting - It was the 4-star Prof X.

    Meh - It got him to LVL 298, which means only two more levels before I'd get a 5-star cover...if he fed one.

    Taunting 2 - If only there was some logical character for a 4-star version of Professor X to supply with covers.  If only...

    The good: I actually hit 2000 in SHIELD Sim yesterday.

    The 'bah' : it was just a Mysterio cover. 

    The bad: at one point I skipped 30 straight Gritty teams, most (but not all, admittedly) including Bishop. Good grief.

    Yeah, around 1800 it basically turns into a pick your poison of Bishops.

     MPQ: Hi, how many health packs would you like to use after this match?

     Zero.

     MPQ: I'm sorry but all of the players around your score that don't use Bishop and/or Gritty either don't exist or are shielding. Perhaps you should try again at another time.

    After the Apocalypse event ended I started spending in the Higher Learning store with the intention of stopping after a 5*.
    First it took me 11 pulls to get me a Dr.Strange, but at least included a Mr.Fantastic BH putting him at 298. (Don't judge. It will make sense soon)
    Hoping to average out better, I kept pulling. This time it took 12 pulls but ended on a Banner with BH red Silver Surfer putting him at 4/4/4!
    At this point it must improve so I keep going. The very next pull was Xavier!

    I had also been BHing 3* Black Panther and had 71 covers saved. My plan was to get 100 then champ and start over, but after vault pulls, it was time.

    I leveled and champed BP resulting in 2 more MrF covers getting him to 300.
    The resulting SS allowed me to champ him just in time for Venom Bomb since I play in slice 5!

    The bad: I accidentally healed the nearly full health ghost instead of my kitty who was on 95hp and entered a fight before I realised

    The good: I successfully managed to avoid making a single match with kitty and kept her alive and happily buffing away and breaking circuits at the back and won the fight

    The meh: used an extra health pack in the process

    The good: I equipped my lvl 192 Talos with a support, threw in some boosts and i managed to beat Cap M5rvel. This was a standalone battle so, going to ...

    The bad: I purposely went into a lighting round battle to remove the boosts I used in the fight against M5rvel, bc when i battle much later i tend to forget to remove them. But you guessed it, i forgot them now too. Goodbye to some of the most useful boosts (match damage)

    The meh: the LT got me a Spider-Gwen token

    The bad: Pretty much everyone and their mom is running Grocket teams in Black Vortex.

    The good: Carol vs Carol matches and letting her have all of the blacks on the board.

    The ugly: The look on her face when she realizes that she's down to a thousand health and just went Thanos on her own team.

    The good: I normally don't play PvE for placement, but I was hoping to get a cover for the new Torch, and it just so happened I had a 1-hour Lyft ride to the airport 1 hour before one of the subs was set to close. So I would be able to do optimal clears on sub 1 which was a 48-hour sub, greatly increasing my chances of getting that placement cover. And the trip was vacation so I'd be able to do optimal clears on every other sub!

    The bad: Twenty minutes into the ride, the driver pulls over on the side of the highway. I ask him what's wrong and he turns and looks at me with totally bloodshot eyes and says, "I fell asleep." I ended up driving the rest of the way to the airport while he slept in the passenger seat, unable to make any additional clears.

    The meh: I still ended the whole event in the top 100, and got the Torch cover. But he's still Torch who I don't think is breaking the meta, and it was another green, making my Torch 0/0/3.

    Opening some LT's today to get 1 Prof X cover for PvE.

    The Good: My first 5* (10th pull) is Prof X (blue) *and* gives me a 5* BH!

    The Bad: It's a Kitty Red which is unusable (I have her and Okoye bonused and the only color at 5 covers is Kittys Red which is also her worst power).

    The Meh: In another year or so I might finish covering her and actually be able to use the BH.


    Seriously, BH's are so rare esp in the 5* tier that they should be colorless or allow be a guaranteed usable cover for any non-champed 5*.

    I’m in! Wish they’d make this change...

    Good: Almost beat a team with a god-boosted, champed Professor X in Daken's PvP.
    Bad: A turn away from finishing, Chuck cascaded into a massive pile of crits, including a six-in-a-row that just randomly dropped in like that. Whole team wiped in one Turn.
    Bit of Both: It was worth enough that I didn't lose any points from the loss. And I didn't get hit in the process.
