    I guess I could be considered transitioning to 4* land. the real slow down for me is HP. I've got a good 2* farm going and loads of ISO right now. I have all the 3* fully champ, with 13 at 200+. I have most of the 4*s (only 16 missing) with Fury champed and Fisk 3 covers away from being champed.

    I just started banking the DDQ tokens as per an alliance mate, so I figure once that gets going my HP will start going up and I'll really starting moving into 4* land.
    Just remember that "loads of ISO" is realllly subjective.  It costs around 380k to champ a 4*... 
    Oh I know. I currently have nearly 2M. Once I really get going with the 4* covers it won't be enough, especially when I start champing.
    It's enough to champ around half a dozen fourstars. It's a start at least... Then you just have 90% of the tier left!

    I get why people want to champ all 3*s, because they are the basis for a lot of PvP events, and they're comparatively easier to get/cheaper than 4*s, but is there any incentive to champ all 66 4*s? I'm champing all 3*s before jumping to 4*s, but I see myself jumping to 5*s way before I champ even half of them.

    Farming. If you build up a hoard trying to jump to fivestars you are going to get a whole lot of fourstar covers too. The more you can apply, the better - the champion rewards for fourstars are pretty good.
    Plus, a lot of fourstar players think that tier is a lot more fun than the fivestar tier and want to stay there as long as possible.

    Makes sense. I've definitely seen some 5* regret threads, because 5* is so stale and meta-focused

    For me, I just love the fact that I can open an LT or a classics without fear of wasting a cover (unless it's a 5* I already have max covered but not champed). It was always frustrating to open a small hoard and half of the covers end up just becoming 1k ISO
