    "Clairvoyant or Nostalgia?"

    Clairvoyant is a referance to: 
    https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/marvels-mobile-games-set-avengers-infinity-war-updates-1103462

    "April 24 – New supports become available, including Children of Thanos and Infinity Stones. New characters include Captain America (April 19), Black Widow (May 3), Okoye (May 17) and Spider-Man/Iron Spider (May 31)."

    Listing 4 characters at once through May 31st is Clairvoyant since it comes way in advance and from an unknown source.

    Nostalgia is a reference to Dazzler.

    The hint is literally asking Black Widow or Dazzler?

    I'll be impressed if the new char release doesn't adhere to the posted schedule that was reported.

    I wonder how they tested this or gathered data for this

    Support Perks that have a chance to activate are activating less often than listed in the descriptions. We are currently planning to address this issue by the end of next week (by April 27th)

    Claire Voyant was first in a 1940 comic, the first Marvel/Timely character to use the name Black Widow. She is an antihero who literally killed baddies in the name of Satan. She last appeared in “The Twelve”, a good 12 issue mini that used a lot of OG Marvel superheroes and would be even better to read today, rather than during the original print run that was delayed for 4 years (!) between issue 8 and 9.

    She would be an interesting addition to the game....

    The simplest explanation is that someone inspected the code and noticed that it was deriving the odds incorrectly.  You wouldn't need any statistical play data to determine that.

    Im just speculating but my guess would be that bw uses claire voyant as an alias in iw and thats the connection. I doubt were gonna get a 1940s era marvel character.

    I like the load screen and I really like the gold numbers to represent the boost enhancements.  Very nice!

    Very interesting that the bug with regards to supports not firing at their listed percentages warranted an out of cycle patch. Was there some game breaking behavior I wasn't aware of? At any rate, Kudos on the quick turnaround
