What color seems to elude you?

Black. I never get boards where there's a lot of initial black. I always start matches with one or maybe two black tiles buried in some forsaken corner of the board. I know better than to choose a team that in any way relies on attaining black AP, or if I do I better be bringing along Cloak & Dagger or Iron Fist. Last night when doing my final clears of Venom Bomb with Spidey and Vulture, I couldn't buy a black tile. It was crazy. I'm sure there is code in the game that specifically denies Dormammu black-dominant boards. I mean, I never run Carol. It's pointless.

Is this confirmation bias? Of course it is. But then again, I never have any problems finding yellow...  :o

    All of them (I am colorblind).

    Yellow, and I'm using IM40. It seems that whenever I go into an important fight, the board will start off with 2 or 3 yellow tiles scattered far away from each other. Examples of important fights are high level boss events, the last fight before I put up a shield in PvP, the 3rd clear of hard nodes with one or zero minions.

    It's usually the color I need most when I'm entering a fight where I'm attempting to punch above my weight class.

    Exactly.  Yellow when IM40, black when Vulture... Yes, truly random  o:)

    There's never more than three blue tiles when I start a match, I swear. Green, however, is everywhere.

    The only time I have trouble finding yellow is when I'm running IM40. Interestingly, I can usually find black for Carol, but it's often a real problem for Vulture. Oh, and green when I'm running Storm. That's often vanishingly rare.

    I can also attest to there often being a lack of black tiles around when playing as Vulture.

    There are 2 things I want to make it clear:

    1. Why is it called "Purple" when it's clearly Pink??
    2. Green and Team-Up: Seriously I need to use Kampala Khan or Thor frequently to get more Green and Ms.Marvel to get more Team-Up

    Why do you call it "pink" when it's clearly Purple?

    I can play this game too...

    If I run a Falcon/Wasp team with the intention of flipping Falc's shields for strikes then I will always be able to get purple but not yellow or visa-versa.

    At least that can't be confused for pink.

    Finding boards that have usable colors isn't generally a problem. The problem is that the AI usually plays a strategy of creating cascades which generate about a half-dozen AP in every color while simultaneously eliminating all the matches I was planning to make on my next turn.
