    It's the usual price of 100 HP Daily Deal, and 400 HP after that

    Oh dear lord. Ty for the reminder not to get out of bed on Sunday. Like really, not even out of bed. Even my own house is not safe...

    That seems a little steep for a select 2*, no? I mean, no LT and only one 4* possible? Seems like it should be cheaper than that, for this lower 'value' vault.

    I get 41 when I added the Vault numbers up. Presumably that means this is a vault with a free token near the start?

    Is Jubilee in the game icon another April Fool's thing, or are we (yet again) stuck in the stupid phase where you know about something, WE know about something, and you're still not allowed to talk to us about it because a Marvel.com article is holding the information hostage (with bonus 50/50 odds that we find out in-game before the article goes live anyways)?

    More Bagman's to instantly sell as soon as I get them. YAY. The only limited I keep is Dino and Howard.

    It's an April Fool's Vault by Bagman. I would view it as a troll vault. I don't think many players would bother with it unless their Bagman is hitting Lvl144, which would give them a LT.

    On a side note, it means the April Fool's covers will be changed to its original cover after 1st April.  3* BP cover is really cute. JJ's is pretty cool looking.

    I kinda wish the covers were staying

    This many Bagman covers may guilt trip me into finally rostering him...maybe.

    Bagman is the only 2* that rewards a LT.  How many LTs have you missed by not rostering the incredible Bagman? >:)

    Soooo.. the devs locked up Bagman over 3-years ago because well he sucked and now we're supposed to look at him as the holy grail of rareness. At least rebalance him with reduced AP costs. The Bagman event was amusing last year, but this year it has definitely wore off it's humor.

    Perhaps as many as ..... 1. For many players, 0.

    Yeah probably none yet.  I've been playing for just over a year and in that time I've probably gotten enough covers to champ him plus maybe 10 champ levels.  With my luck though the LT I would have gotten (and may eventually get) would have rewarded with a Kraven or an Electra cover.

    Bagman is like the jester or clown of MPQ. I don't think I would take him seriously. Bagman PvP is the only PvP where most players, at least in this forum, I believe, wouldn't mind not getting top 10 for placement rewards. 

    On a side note, is this part of the April Fool's trick by Bagman or Loki:

    Start: Sat, April 1, 8am EDT
    End: Tue, April 4, 3pm EDT

    April 1 is a Sunday... Or am I taking a Bagman thread too seriously?

    This year I count 13 Young covers (JJ, Ghost Rider5, Gwenpool, Howard, Lockjaw, Mockingbird, BP3, Cap3, Deadpool3, IM30, KK, R&G3 and Spidey3), that's four more than last year.

    Just started a duplicate Bagman, so I'm excited to champ him again... and max him in 2020.

    I really want those two to remain as the default covers for those characters.

    Also, the JJ one is pretty much how I pictured the Defenders show going before I actually saw it ;)
