    Having 3* Carol at the Recruit Heroes tab.

    I’m rather creeped out by that Amy Poehler-Michelle Pfeiffer hybrid at the bottom of my screen.

    In today's Dat Required Character node in DDQ, I noticed that there was both a Hammer Pyro and a Shield Pyro. I guess lighting stuff on fire transcends other differences!

    The true origin of the Human Torch is that he got in the middle of them both.

    With the introduction of Talos, a team of Talos, Mystique and Scarlet Witch should reliably allow you to shapeshift TWO of your characters into Galactus during his boss fight.  If only Scarlet Witch had a Galactus costume it would be perfect...

    ...and yes, during the Red Shift PVP, getting four Scarlet Witches in the match should be a breeze, but that’s less fun than multiple Galactus...unless it’s a mirror-match with six Scarlet Witches.  Unfortunately I think I may be the only one dumb enough to run that team... :)

    I'll keep a lookout when Talos' PVP starts  ;)

    Using Prowler against Mindless Ones feels almost unfair. Even more so with Kitty along, but even the Loaner Node was pretty easy this time, between him stealing some of the tiles, and Power of Attorney taking out any unmatchable ones near the bottom.

    RNGesus, you are charged with the following:

    - when using the Milano support, you usually put the CD in such a way that either you match it in the last moment or I am forced to destroy it myself with a match 4
    - when playing with Rocket and Groot his strike tiles are usually placed where you easily match away lots of them or force me to do it with match 4:s
    - when fighting Mindless Ones their attack tiles are usually placed in the lower left where they cant be matched and takes the longest time to resolve
    - when playing with Gladiathor and I have painstakingly got him to under 50% health you cause a heavy cascade in the next couple of moves and kill him
    - when playing with Scarlet Witch her CD is usually matched away directly or put in a corner or matched away in the last moment by you
    - when facing 3 * R&G he usually gets a yellow match in a cascade after you have nearly downed him
    - when facing goons their CD:s are usually placed on a board where nearly nothing can be moved but when all their CD:s resolve and strikes are created, the reulting cascades kill your entire team

    How do you plead? Guilty or not guilty?

    Why is my Combined Arms team after I play another event, defaulting to Patch, Storm and Quake?
    And in a 175 roster how long does it not take to find the heroes you want? If it only had 2*, 3* and 4* filtering that would have helped a lot.

    RNGesus, this court finds you guilty on all charges. Unfortunately, our options for sentencing are limited to swearing and threatening to throw our phones through the wall.

    Objection, Your Honor!  As a Steam player, throwing my phone through the wall would be useless!

    Swearing, on the other hand...

    The MPQ court has a long-standing history of ignoring Steam players.  Overruled!
    The Court sentences you to no free covers!

    This is probably  the first time I see two DDQ panels at the same time and I'm not even drunk. Is it a DST issue?

    Pretty sure it is. I like it, instead of shutting down the old DDQ an hour early they just overlap them. 
    Pretty sure it's a feature, not a bug.

    Now in Thick as Thieves I just stumbled over the fact that Cable will fortify my frail Milano-CD on a yellow match. Always something.
