    It’s not double Iso, just double RIso.

    You do realise how long it's been since a double regular ISO event has happened, right? Could we have one of those too?

    Instead of, you know...using this good publicity to continue to push this new feature on us that we're not overly bothered about?

    Where was that Stars & Stripes offer back when my Peggy was 4/4/0? ;)

    No, seriously, tho, this is all good. Some of it could be better, certainly, but there's nothing here that has an actual downside I can see.

    Way to tie in the new series starring a popular new character by tying in with the biggest move ever, making her a feeder for an old, bad, obsolete version of a character who recently had another version released based on said biggest movie ever.

    Yay double red iso. Now I'll get 1000 red iso over the course of the event instead of 500. Whatever will I do with all that red iso?

    Would it have killed you guys to give double purple iso as well? I can't even remember the last time we had that.

    My Peggy Carter (After buying today's 3-cover deal) is L299.  My Captain America First Avenger is 2/2/0, so I'll need 21 more covers to have a CAFA of 2/2/1.  Yay?  lol

    My Peggy is level 330 and my Cap is 5/3/3. So at least one of us is happy. :smiley:

    I fully endorse and approve of all of this. Peggy's still my gal at the 4-star tier (no matter what anyone says about that snot Carol  :p ) and it will be nice to get free BeardCap cover(s) from her champ rewards. More opportunities to get her covers is always welcome. And Peggy events are always the best.

    Double Red ISO? ((shrug)) Yeah, okay, whatever.

    New Valkyrie cover? Cool! Her cover was total tinykitty and she badly needed an actual comic.

    Don’t worry.  I just saw on Facebook that Fortnite will be getting Thanos for a limited time.  They are getting an Infinity War tie in.  So they are getting more than we are.  Smh

    Good things all around (if you ignore the repetitive forum snark of people who want to complain without offering a constructive solution), except for the end there.

    • Starting in this event, and going forward, Story Event vaults will have 3x Basic Support tokens (up from 1)
    The problem is that there are no guaranteed tokens, ie, tokens in progression. You could put 30 Basic Support tokens in the Story Vaults and if someone doesn't get any with the tokens from that event, it'll be just the same as the vault containing ZERO tokens.

    I'm a fan of Supports, but at the rate things are going we'll have moved on to the next major game update/overhaul before we ever really get a chance to try them out. I don't want this year's Anniversary to be full of announcements that "Supports are actually in the game for real this time!"

    I know the Devs have said they would rather roll something out slow, than do things too fast and have to backpedal and remove stuff from the game, but we're moving down the runway and you've got to accelerate for this plane to take off. Or fire the guy that wants to roll things out slow and hire a new pilot.

    (I can't use the metaphor I really want to use here because of the gorram tinykitty word filter...)

    First Avenger Cap, not Infinity War Cap.

    I'll take his covers, too. Both my 5-star caps are woefully under-covered.

    Isn't it a bit odd to include 3 heroic tokens and 5 elite tokens as potential rewards for another token? Is this just a way to make it look like there's 8 less 2* covers? I mean, I'll take it, at least this way there's a small chance of getting something better and gives the opportunity for a bonus hero.
