    I was hoping the Growth Industry was a new weekly rather than a 4* Campaign but everything else I'm pretty happy with.

    47 pulls and not 1 wasp, only pulled 3 Okoye 

    thats a joke 

    not happy 👿

    On the flipside, you only got one Wasp, so... rejoice?
    You may want to read that again. He didn’t get one.

    I was hoping it would be adapted to a regular pve event as well to celebrate the upcoming movie.  It still can be, though!  Please, devs?

    Thankfully, my first pull in her store was a Wasp, which is likely the only cover that I'll have for her until a feeder is announced. By everything that I've heard and seen, she is absolutely trash tier, and isn't worth chasing for any reason in my opinion. Even boosted for her PvE, her damage output at 550 are unbelievably low. Hopefully she'll get fixed one day (maybe after Banner and Ock, her two companions in the lowest tier).

    Its been that long since they dusted off the button for double ISO the system is probably faulty.

    Win some, lose some PvP is supposed to be double iso right? When I win a match I'm only getting 70 iso, shouldn't that be doubled?
    Because of the way mission rewards are set up in Versus Tournaments, only Progression and Placement Iso-8 rewards are able to be doubled.

    We DID have PVPs with double ISO after fights in the past.

    Let's just call it a oversight,  normally in double iso PvP the skip tax is also halved

    Not getting wasp isn’t as bad as first thought from what people are saying, guess I’ll have to play level 7 when she comes around as a required character

    But we didn't have the dual Win/Points PVPs in the past. No way for us to know what changed in that regard deeper in the code (that could make things different for missions this time around)

    Can you confirm that you did Not generate AP when Call the Swarm was played?
    I know that the Dev's have presumably confirmed that it does not generate AP (it Should!), but I have to believe that it does. 
    Every other ability in the game that destroys tiles without generating AP specifically states "and does not generate AP" in the description.  Wasp's ability is worded similar to God Thor green, Vulture blue, Squirrel Girl green etc, where AP is generated from tile destruction. 
    ---
    EDIT: I have now heard from very reliable sources that AP generation does NOT take place. 
    The only potential positive has now proven to be poorly designed, and I'm always hopelessly optimistic..

    Demiurge isn't known for their continuity skills. Also I'd gladly trade the quintuple Riso for double match win iso.

    It does not generate anything and i just managed to pull it of with 6 swarm tiles on the board the damage it did was 11k... in the proccess Firstly i used 18 blue ap then 10 yellow and then 12 more yellow all that ap for 11k damage.. I don't understand the developers team on this game because quite frankly this is a load of ****. I want to also add that the swarm tiles can be destroyed by a match four or matched( they themselves can not be moved but can be matched )

    Unless they're releasing a 5* Ant-Man next that, when paired with her, makes all of her abilities shine while also generating AP for them, she seems extremely underwhelming on paper. This feels like Doc Ock tier.
